    I came to watch your latest flosstube and realised I had forgotten to watch this one! An unexpected treat for me...and it was lovely to see all your WIPs and of course, your finishes 😄 I love all your projects and you got loads done in 2023 so I hope you have another fabulous stitch year ahead 😄💜

    I am so happy that I stumbled on your channel. This was the first of your videos that I watched and I just love everything that you showed, but those full coverage pieces are unbelievably beautiful, especially the eye of the unicorn. It looks so real! Sending sincere thanks for sharing with all of us from Woodstock, Connecticut, USA. Happy 2024!

    I love your Jacobean biscornu. Rose of Sharon is wonderful. Your mom most love it! I really like the Christmas mug series, but I don't do Santas because I want Jesus to be the most important part of Christmas. After next year, I will probably stitch several of them or maybe make a set of 9 of my favorite. Is it odd stitching wintery Christmas projects when your Christmas is in summer? Fairy Garden is awesome. So much lovely stitching. I am looking forward to seeing your stitching in 2024.❤

    • @TheFlosstubeStitcher
      @TheFlosstubeStitcher  Рік тому

      Thank you so much! Yes it is a bit strange stitching winter projects but it’s difficult to find other ones that I like. I was lucky to see snow for Christmas when I visited USA in 2012/2013 so I look at the ones I’ve done as a reminder of that visit. I do still wish we had the traditional white Christmas like in the movies and not the super hot summery one 🥵

      Oh it’s the Raw/Opalescent Belfast Linen that I use. I’ve never tried the white one but I hope to one day as I’m sure it’s just as pretty. No good for Shannon’s mug SAL though as there’s a lot of white stitches which you won’t see.

    As always I came away from your video better than when I started it. I really enjoy your videos. I am wondering how you organize/store or keep track of your floss for multiple project? I have two going and wanted to start a winter or Christmas one. I gave up trying to wrap my head around all the floss for 3 projects. So now I haven’t worked on any since Halloween . I’m sure your busy but maybe you can help. If not I get it. Thanks so much for your video just by being you.

    • @TheFlosstubeStitcher
      @TheFlosstubeStitcher  Рік тому

      Thank you so much! I keep my floss for each project in separate floss boxes (bobbin boxes) that are labeled with the project name on the outside. This year I am starting several projects that only have a few colors, so I’ve found a small floss box and used 1-2 sections per project. I’ve been able to fit 4 or 5 projects in the one box doing it this way. Bigger projects I use a whole box or even two as they have so many colors.
      Hope that helps 🥰

    Can I ask why you chose 18 count for Fairy Whispers please ? It's stunning and one I want to stitch but unsure which fabric count to use. Many thanks

    • @TheFlosstubeStitcher
      @TheFlosstubeStitcher  5 місяців тому

      I did my first massive full coverage (Blue Dragon) on 18ct and I just absolutely loved it. I always prefer to stitch with 2 strands using a loop start whenever I can. I’ve been thinking that my next full coverage I might attempt on a 25ct with 1 strand. The only downside for me using 18 ct is the finished design ends up being massive!!!
      I don’t always frame my work but this is one I really want to. Better start saving up for that 😂
      It’s all personal preference. You won’t really know what you like until you’ve tried a few different ways. I know many people that have restarted projects several times due to not being happy with the count they chose. I hope that info helped and I wish you all the best 🥰
