Listen lady, don’t you feel bad or wasteful! You’re so young you have plenty of time to stitch them all up! I’m pretty sure I have over 100 projects kitted up and I’m 55. It’s JUST SO FUN!!!!!!! Loved your kit parade!!! XOXO Heidi
I’m so sorry we live in a world where we have to tell people to be nice. You aren’t spending your money on drugs. Your extra money is being spent on art which makes you calm and happy. I have a ridiculous amount of Cross Stitch, but I’m happy, healthy and my bills are paid. Don’t you worry we love your stash and are excited to see it ❤
I just knew a comment would come in that would be nasty unfortunately. I think sometimes just because I’m a mother I get more “hate” comments because I spend my time or money on myself. Which is perfectly fine! Lol. My child is very spoiled but my channel isn’t about her ya know. I just wanted to make sure people knew if they left a rude comment they would never be able to comment again. 😂💖
I was a knitter first and used to feel slightly guilty about my sock yarn stash…until I was under/unemployed all through COVID. I always had something I genuinely wanted to work on and never had to “make due” in any way. It was a huge boost during a really hard time. Now I kit my favorite crafts whenever I can. I look at it like a savings account :)
Exactly! I love having a stash to “shop” from. It’s the best. And I can knit many sweater from stash yarn which is a huge plus for me when the mood strikes!
Happy to have you join the #Restartathon2023! I love seeing all of your kits and a glimpse into the future of what your stitching life might hold. Kit parades are fun to watch because you often see the joy of projects yet to be started, and a newfound inspiration to bring out something waiting in the wings.
First of all, love the hair! You are lucky to have an LNS, it’s great to see fabric and floss in person. My son lives in Maple Valley so I’ve been to Thread Needle Street. As far as the number of kitted projects you have, it’s your business. I appreciate seeing them and I find kit parades inspiring. It’s not frivolous to invest in things that add joy to your life. And hobbies make us more well rounded people. I’ve been stitching since the 70s and was a monogamous stitcher. There are so many more choices now of everything. I love to think about what I will stitch next. Keep doing what you are doing, it obviously makes you happy! Thanks again for sharing. ❤Susan Murphy
Thank you, Susan! I also love Kit parades. I always end up buying something lol. I just love stitching and it does make me happy. It’s something I can do just for myself and we all need a hobby like that.
I love your hair, thank you for going through your kit parade. Your bloopers crack me up, you made me smile. My mom body can't sit on the floor for very long either. Have an amazing day.
Love grandpas sleeve and she runs her Etsy store so amazingly! I recently purchased from Tabbycat linens and omg the gorgeous linen! The lollybrauch and crème brûlée were to die for! Customer service means so much and with both of these companies, I can’t speak highly enough about them. I find this important to mention as I have experienced a stitching company that treated me awful so it gives me a new appreciation for kindness when doing business. Great video….as always!
Good to know about those shops! I also have had some bad experiences so I try to mention now when I have a good or bad shopping experience or how shipping went etc. it makes a difference when you can actually trust someone with you’re money!
I always say buying craft supplies and using them are two different hobbies. They both bring us joy and that’s all that matters. Love all your kits and can’t wait to see what you decide to stitch.
i really loved what you said about not having anything sideways to say about your kitted up projects! people get so aggro over someone else’s number of kits or wips and it couldn’t possibly make less sense. i’m with you, designers i love, i’m gonna kit up as many projects from them as i can. i want to kit up a good variety of projects so no matter what i’m in the mood to stitch, i have something to work on. i want to have seasonal projects. you are such a ray of light in this community and we’re so lucky to have you! 💛
Thank you so much! This is exactly how I feel. I want to have a variety of things to chose from when the start bug comes knocking LOL. I really enjoy having a stash to pull from. I didn’t want anyone to be mean to me 😂💖
While watching this all I could think is that I need way more kits than I have. Love them and also what a fabulous collection of fabrics. Thanks for sharing. I have stitched for many years, all through my children’s growing up. People could be so condescending and would say to me ‘I sure wish I had time for something like stitching, it must be nice’. For awhile it bothered me as I was a Mother of 3, worked, went to school, and volunteered for everything my kids did, and yes stitched. At some point I was able to just ignore them but if I had a channel I would block them as well. Stitch on beautiful lady.
Yes to everything you said! That is exactly how I feel sometimes, like I get more judgment because I’m a mother. It sucks that you as a mother can’t do something just for yourself without feeling some kind of shame or actually being shamed. 😞 I finally decided to just say something in my video though because I wasn’t going to have people being rude to me over the stuff I work hard to buy myself lol. Not anymore! Thank you for making me feel not so alone in those feelings 💖. I appreciate you!
I loved this flosstube! I’m sorry that you have to tell people to be nice. Ugh. You’re such a positive person, and I appreciate you! Can’t wait to see what you do with your stitching!
First I love your hair!! Second I can’t believe anyone would be negative. I thought we were all enablers 😂 I love watching what other stichers purchase, kit up, etc etc
I just bought 5 kits the other day and kitted up a couple of Mirabila patterns. I have a stash of kitted projects but keep buying new ones. You will see no negative comments from me! I enjoy watching your flosstube and love knowing the art of cross stitch is not dying out with this grandma’s generation.Keep stitching.
You, Shilo, Brijin, Marjorie, and Cam are my favorites. I'm 51 but still 29 😂. You guys are the future of cross stitch. Bravo to all of you ladies for a new way of showing and sharing your beautiful work. Love your hair by the way I chopped mine off too, but it's still long. I always grow it so I can donate it.
I love that you watch us all! We seriously love to be part of this community. Everyone is so kind and generous with knowledge and always have something helpful to say. I love it! Definitely keeping cross stitching alive! I am seriously loving the shorter hair. It’s so much easier to take care of.
I love your warning for the haters! Don’t let them in your life. You’re a beautiful person inside and out. I adore hand dyed fabric but have trouble making choices. Thanks for all the inspiration. Grandpa’s sleeve ❤❤
Thank you so much! I usually don’t say anything but I have gotten some mean comments and I just didn’t even want to allow it in my comments or email. Wanted to nip it in the butt before it could begin LOL.
I just love you soo so much!! Thank you for this parade of eye candy! It was so much fun seeing all the future SALs of charts we have in common!! And the hair is just amazing, it suits you so much! ❤
This was such a fun Flosstube! I love seeing tons of WIPS, kits, haul, stash, etc. Most people watch to see things related to cross stitch, don’t they? I don’t understand the negative comments but you are handling them beautifully. Love, love, love your haircut! I can really see how much your daughter resembles you since you’ve had it cut. Thanks for sharing your time here!😊❤
Thank you, Stephanie! I definitely wanted to just nip it in the butt before anyone could try to be rude about it LOL. It seems like it worked and that makes me happy. This hobby is so much fun for me and I really enjoy picking our new projects and fun fabric. Happy stitching friend!
Great summer haircut 😊 thank you for all the inspiration, I want to stitch all the things, I will be adding many of the patterns you shared to my 123 stitch order Hope you are having a great summer stay cool
Hi, Megan!!! I am so happy to see you this morning! Your sweet smile is just what I needed today 😊. I am actually pausing the video right at the beginning to tell you how gorgeous your new haircut is! It really suits you. 😎 I’m very excited for a kit parade, because I love to see what you have waiting in the wings. You know me, I will probably be adding more comments as we go along! 😂 Meline
I’m getting so many ideas for fabric for the next projects I want to start! Love all of your kitted up projects, I’ve never done a sampler and now I want to try.
I love your outtakes!!! They were funny!!! GREAT video, again!! I LOVE how you addressed negativity!!! BRAVO!!!! More power to you there!!! I LOVE this happy place! Your personality SHINES!!! Thank YOU for making these videos! I always enjoy them! PS. This is my 2nd time watching it! Lol!!! I love the Quaker patterns you have!!! Some of my faves!!!
You totally made my day Laurie! 🥰💖 thank you for all your support and for making this my safe space! This community is amazing but of course there is always the chance you get a bad comment so I wanted to nip it in the butt before someone tried me in the comment section here 🤣. Not again! Lol.
You inspired me to reorganize my cross stitch stash and look at all my kits and I kitted up a couple others while I was doing that. Love seeing your kits, since we have some of the same charts to see what fabrics you paired it up with.
What a joy this was to watch! Thank you for sharing so many beautiful projects 😍🤩 and thank you for always cultivating a warm and welcoming community for everyone. Your hair looks so cute at this length, too! You mentioned feeling wasteful about having DMC stuck in a bag waiting to be started -- I have come to terms that I might have $10-$15 of DMC in a bag waiting it's turn, but I'm willing to find the extra money if it means that I can have the project ready to go whenever I'm ready to start it. I'm more judicious with fancy flosses, but not DMC :) I hope you're having a great start to your week! Happy stitching, Megan 💜
Thank you so much! I’m really happy with the chop. Glad I decide to cut it with how hot it’s been here lately. Also, you are so right. DMC is affordable for me and I think it’s fun to have these projects ready to go when I want to start them. Thank you for the positivity! 🥰🥰
Love your new hair, love the kitted projects and especially love the out takes at the end. 😂 Anyone who leaves nasty comments is just jealous of your wonderful collection and anyone who is in to any kind of fibre art knows that collecting it is part and parcel of the joy we find in our hobby. It just makes me happy to look at my stash of yarn and cross stitch goodies.
Thank you! That is totally how I feel, collecting patterns and flosses and even my yarn is really fun for me and I like to have options for things that are ready to start. It’s so fun to just go through what you have too lol. Only another cross stitcher could understand!
Oh. My. Goodness!!!! I just LOVE that a viewer sent you that kitted up project ( which is right up your alley!) in that precious pink project bag that she made for you! What a blessing!! I’m not surprised, though…there are so many wonderful people in this community, and that what makes our little world so amazing and fun. 🥰 So happy for you, and kudos to Dawn for her generosity and love! 💗
I loved your floss tube. I have several of the same kitted up charts that you do. Never apologize for being excited about your hobby! If you weren't, I wouldn't watch you. Keep up the fabulous floss tubes.
Grrrrrrllll! I just LOVE all your projects, and you're spot on for your fabric choice, so many super pretty fabrics! I absolutely love Jackson Fabric Arts! Oh man, and Welcome Halloween is such a great pattern! It was staring me down at StitchCon!
Thank you so much! I absolutely love Halloween. I totally pulled out some of my Halloween decor this weekend lol! No self control. I love spooky season.
I lovelovelove WIP parades. They’re very much enabling but that’s ok by me. Folks who leave negs are just unhappy and don’t want others to enjoy their own lives. Thank you for your channel! I really enjoy watching it and I love your personality. ❤
Adore you sooo much. The hair is GORGEOUS Im so obsessed!! Loved seeing everything in this video! Definitely making a list of things I have my eye on from this vid 😍 May need to get that Practical Magic pattern!!
Eeeeee thank youuuuu!! 🥹💖🥹 you’re the best. Also please do get that practical magic! We can SAL it lol. Brijin and I plan to start it September maybe mid/end of month. It’s so cute.
I really enjoyed seeing what you have kitted up. Made some notes for those that caught my eye. I sometimes worry about kitting up too much as some of my fabric count preferences and pattern choices I find change as time goes on. I just wish I could stitch all the things as quickly as I see them ❤
Oh my goodness this totally happens to me! I think I will for sure use one fabric and then when I pull it out completely change my mind lol. It’s always nice to have some extra fabric stash for sure. That’s definitely where I could use some beefing up.
Thank you, Becki! I seriously have saved so much time in the morning not having the long hair. It’s so much easier, I am obsessed. Thank you for always being kind to me 💖
Hi Megan!! I love your haircut, people would kill for your hair. I swear Megan you could be bald and still look adorable! Your stitching is absolutely amazing! Love your choices. Until next time stay cool sweetie. ♥️
I love the Spring and Autumn Quaker! I am currently stitching the Quaker Christmas by ByGone Stitches. You can definitely tell that Halloween is your favorite holiday...I love all of your kitted up projects!
Love the projects. I have a hard time kitting up a project and then not starting it. So I have several half kitted items because you know I can't start them with only half the stuff...lol. I do love the Prairie Schooler Halloween patterns. I might need to buy those soon. Thanks for sharing.
How rude of people to be so negative about stitching & flosstube. They need to just go away. You have a great collection of future starts & stash. Love the bloopers! 😆 Marilyn
I feel really lucky that almost always it is positive comments on my channel and this community is so kind and generous. I really just wanted to make sure no one tried to say anything about how much I have accumulated in a year lol. I know it’s a lot and I don’t care 🤣💖. Thank you for your support!
I just fell in love with you ❤ You are so full of such great energy and life ….. Brava to you. Love your videos ❤❤❤ and the comment about no negativity is so perfect …….. I’ll be catching up on all of your videos
You are so fun! I am just getting back in to the stitching and Flosstube groove and I am so happy I found you (via The Museum Stitcher). You are so joyful! It’s so great to see new Flosstubers (to me) bringing such a good vibe to this community! Breath of fresh air!
I admire your restraint in not starting anything you have kitted up. I try to avoid kitting stuff up because if I have everything THERE it’s too tempting to not sneak a teensy start in
Hi! Lots of beautiful kits to choose from! I love your passion for stitching! Your hair cut is darling! I love it! I have long thick hair and often wear it in a braid or an updo. I’m thinking about getting it cut but I’m old and afraid I’ll look older if I get it cut short and then I won’t be able to do my side braid or updo. Maybe I’ll just have two inches cut off🤷🏼♀️. I like the way yours is curled. My hair never stays curled, I’m lucky if it stays curled 10 minutes.😂 thank you for sharing! Happy Stitching!
I also have really thick hair and always worry when I get cuts that it will look too full around my face but this is the first time I can really say I absolutely love my cut! I say go for it. It’ll grow back 😁😁 I use a curling wand to get the textured waves and it’s SO fast. Love it. Happy stitching!
I love your new hairdo! Very flattering look and emphasizes your lovely bone structure. Of course, I have very short hair and just like short hair. Thanks for another visit.
It's not nice if people say horrible things. I'd love to have more stash ❤ it's nothing to do with anyone else, you're not hurting anyone. I love seeing what others have and like to stitch, thank you for sharing. You have given me inspiration for the zweigart blush that I have, I've been looking for something to stitch on it, now I can kit it up
Hi I’ve heard your name soo many times on Brigid’s channel so thought I would watch your video, ❤ I love your kits and will check out your wip parade ❤ 🎉
Im obsessed with all your choices! Im so excited youre starting that pattern from Hello Halloween by Teresa Kogurt! I need to get a fabric and start mine! I recently joined her patreon and got access to her site where you can buy old patreon patterns I think I bought like 10 patterns hahah so much to love so little time! Thanks for the extra!!
She has SUCH cute Halloween stuff!! Love her style of designs. I can’t wait to start stitching that one. As if I need another huge Halloween piece LOL. I just love Halloween. 🧡🧡🧡
I’m so sorry people would say anything to you that is negative. Your new hair is stunning and I love your projects. I am anew stitcher and I buy things kit them up and then pet them lol I did the same with my yarn. I could literally never buy another skein and be fine but yet I still buy bc it makes me happy. Thanks for sharing
Are we the same person? 🤣💖🫶🏻. Honestly I just wanted to nip it in the butt before anyone could even try to be rude to me. I will block them and cry okay. LOL thank you so much for your kindness.
I love the colors you choose. Others may make the conversions, but you are wise enough to choose them. I do not even like pink, but I like the ones you have chosen.
I love your kitted projects. I have several of the same because I am such a fan of Halloween, and I have tons. Hang on to that HATS project. Someday your tastes may lean toward a reproduction sampler. I love the stories of those stitchers included in the booklets. Please buy a special lovely blank book and record a pattern title per page and number the pp. Then make yourself an index in the back starting on the last page working backward starting with page 1 and title. These titles will slip your mind as time passes. You can go back when you start and record fabric and any notes. Trust me, years from now you'll walk past that piece on the wall and think...what year was that, title or fabric? You are a breath of fresh air with your enthusiasm and eye for fabric.
LOVE your new hair!! I just got my cut of London fog a few days ago and it’s the most beautiful fabric ever. Definitely influenced by you to check out Jackson fabric arts and now I’m addicted haha
Thank you so much! Isn’t it SUCH a good color. I feel like everything pops on it and it’s SO soft. I really think her shop would be perfect for anyone who stitches fancy ladies too because her super saturated colors.
You have to do Token of Love right away! That is gonna be stunning! Love all your projects. I have yet to get to that store in Issaquah but I have plans.
I am thinking about starting it as a valentines piece or a wedding anniversary piece later this year I can’t wait. You’re going to love thread needle street! Hope you get lots of goodies.
Hi Megan. First of all, your hair looks fabulous 😍 I loved, loved, loved this video. I could watch Kit and Wip parades all day long. My wallet may not feel the same way since I ended the video with a list of "must haves" 🤣 The only judgement I had about your Kitted up projects, was, what only 39????!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣 Love everything you do! Hope that you have a great weekend:) Inez
lol ya know what’s funny I left a whole kit out 🤣 I found it last night under my bookshelf o think it slipped under while I was filming. Thank you for being my safe judgment free zone 😆💖💖
I am beyond happy I’ve found your channel when I did! It’s been a huge highlight on my days that are a little bit harder to get through. I also love Halloween so I’m always so excited to see the Halloween stuff!! ♥️
I love your Flosstube, love all your project and i love to follow you 🥰🥰 love you have stitching and Knitting , that are so fun to watch the Norwegian style sweater, i really hope you would knit my pattern some day. And by the way! Your hair turned out stunning!! Hugs, Gurli 🇳🇴🥰🫶🌞👍
HI Megan! LOVE a flosstube extra - literally I'll watch whatever it is because A) I'm nosy B) I always end up inspired to start a new project or pull out an old one. If you do end up de-stashing Anne Thomas, I would love to take it off your hands! I've been looking at that pattern forever because I think it'd make a perfect 30th birthday present for my best friend :) Anyway, enhoy the rest of your summer
I love your hair!! ❤ I want to get mine to that length… OCTOBER it was down to my crack 😅. I got about 8” cut then, and a few months ago got it cut shorter. Getting there haha. I also have several kitted projects. Too many but I get floss or fabric when ever and then go back and add to the chart. ❤
Oh my goodness what a cut! I seriously have been loving it though it’s so much easier to take care of and it’s saved me SO much time. I’m loving it. Suits the mom life much better LOL. Happy stitching friend. Hope you have a great Friday!
OMG, your haircut is so cute!!! I don't have as many as you do, but I don't think I've come into a particular style either. Anytime you are ready for the Salem Apothecary, let me know, and we could stitch that together. 😊
Thank you! I am really happy with the cut. It was totally spur of the moment kind of choice but I love it so far. I’ll definitely let you know!! I love a SAL lol.
Ignore the negativity; those are the ones that need our prayers. They have not found our joy. I only have about 10 WIPS. But I LOVE TO PIP A PROJECT. So I have much more waiting to be started. Judges of others are unhappy people. Ignore them.
@@TheSeattleStitcher this is what I say to people who try to attack me: I am sorry that you are so unhappy. Then I move away from them. It usually leaves them with their mouth open, then they leave me alone.
I’m also going to do Teresa Kogut’s Hello Halloween. It will only be my second project, but I can’t wait to get it done…because I want it on my wall. I kitted it up this week and plan to start this week. I was waiting for a magnifying light to be delivered so I can freaking see. 😂 I absolutely love all of your projects.
Thanks for another fun video. I’m not huge into Halloween but you and your friends are definitely influencing me! Looking forward to your regular flosstube episode. 😊❤
Hi Megan Love love your Hair Cut - your hair is so pretty - I love it. Love all of your Kitted up projects. I so want to start Summer Quaker but I need to buy the Fabric for it. I also want to start Summer Montage by Pain Free Crafts. All I need is the Fabric. Take Care & Happy Stitching ❤️🤗🧵🪡🧵❤️
Listen lady, don’t you feel bad or wasteful! You’re so young you have plenty of time to stitch them all up! I’m pretty sure I have over 100 projects kitted up and I’m 55. It’s JUST SO FUN!!!!!!! Loved your kit parade!!! XOXO Heidi
Thank you so much!! I say this all the time. Like god willing I have plenty of time to stitch this stuff up LOL.
I’m so sorry we live in a world where we have to tell people to be nice. You aren’t spending your money on drugs. Your extra money is being spent on art which makes you calm and happy.

Love your hair, it suits you. Really enjoyed your kit parade, I’m glad I’m not the only one kitting stuff. I live your fabric choices.
Thank you!! I seriously love knitting stuff up LOL
Wonderful kit parade. I always love a good parade. Thank you so much

I think your hair looks fantastic! Amazing video and such lovely projects. You make such lovely fabric and floss choices.
Thank you! 🥰🥰

Thank you my precious angel bby. I love you so much. You’re the best 🥹💖🫶🏻🥰
Loved all your kits, but most of all your beautiful person inside and out! ❤
Eeeeee ILY you’re the best human ever and I miss your beautiful face 😭💖🫶🏻
This was such a fun Flosstube! I love seeing tons of WIPS, kits, haul, stash, etc. Most people watch to see things related to cross stitch, don’t they? I don’t understand the negative comments but you are handling them beautifully. Love, love, love your haircut! I can really see how much your daughter resembles you since you’ve had it cut. Thanks for sharing your time here!😊❤
Thank you, Stephanie! I definitely wanted to just nip it in the butt before anyone could try to be rude about it LOL. It seems like it worked and that makes me happy. This hobby is so much fun for me and I really enjoy picking our new projects and fun fabric. Happy stitching friend!
New doo looks great! I like your choice of patterns - thanks for sharing!
💖💖💖
Your hair looks so amazing! Combined with the glasses you look like the cute librarian everyone secretly has a crush on 💕😅
LOL best compliment ever. Thank you 😆💖
I get so excited to see your flosstubes! I love your projects. I have hundreds!!!
Thank you for watching! 🥰🥰
So many lovely projects! And I love your haircut - so beautiful ❤
Thank you!!! 🥰🥰
Loved seeing everything you’ve kitted up! I want so many of these patterns to kit myself! 😂 Thanks for sharing! (And I love the hair cut!!)
Thank you so much!! I love a good kit parade I am the same way like oooo add to cart. Add to cart. 😂💖
Great summer haircut 😊 thank you for all the inspiration, I want to stitch all the things, I will be adding many of the patterns you shared to my 123 stitch order
Hope you are having a great summer stay cool
Thank you Lisa! I am locking the shorter hair. It’s so much easier to get ready in the morning. Happy stitching friend.
Hi, Megan!!! I am so happy to see you this morning! Your sweet smile is just what I needed today 😊. I am actually pausing the video right at the beginning to tell you how gorgeous your new haircut is! It really suits you. 😎 I’m very excited for a kit parade, because I love to see what you have waiting in the wings. You know me, I will probably be adding more comments as we go along! 😂
Meline
Thank you so much! I am loving the shorter hair. It’s so much easier to take care of. I’m obsessed 🤩
Love the kits! I have a few of the same ones. For me part of the fun is kitting up and having different choices as the year goes by ❤
I’m getting so many ideas for fabric for the next projects I want to start! Love all of your kitted up projects, I’ve never done a sampler and now I want to try.
Yayyy! I’m so glad to have spread the excitement of samplers and awesome fabrics. Happy stitching, friend.
I love your hair! And all your kits and wips. Who cares how many you have?! 💖
Thank you! 💖🥰💖
I love your outtakes!!! They were funny!!! GREAT video, again!! I LOVE how you addressed negativity!!! BRAVO!!!! More power to you there!!! I LOVE this happy place! Your personality SHINES!!! Thank YOU for making these videos! I always enjoy them! PS. This is my 2nd time watching it! Lol!!! I love the Quaker patterns you have!!! Some of my faves!!!
You totally made my day Laurie! 🥰💖 thank you for all your support and for making this my safe space! This community is amazing but of course there is always the chance you get a bad comment so I wanted to nip it in the butt before someone tried me in the comment section here 🤣. Not again! Lol.
You inspired me to reorganize my cross stitch stash and look at all my kits and I kitted up a couple others while I was doing that. Love seeing your kits, since we have some of the same charts to see what fabrics you paired it up with.
Oooo I love a good organization time! It’s just so fun to go through your stash and see what all you have.
What a joy this was to watch! Thank you for sharing so many beautiful projects 😍🤩 and thank you for always cultivating a warm and welcoming community for everyone. Your hair looks so cute at this length, too! You mentioned feeling wasteful about having DMC stuck in a bag waiting to be started -- I have come to terms that I might have $10-$15 of DMC in a bag waiting it's turn, but I'm willing to find the extra money if it means that I can have the project ready to go whenever I'm ready to start it. I'm more judicious with fancy flosses, but not DMC :) I hope you're having a great start to your week! Happy stitching, Megan 💜
Thank you so much! I’m really happy with the chop. Glad I decide to cut it with how hot it’s been here lately. Also, you are so right. DMC is affordable for me and I think it’s fun to have these projects ready to go when I want to start them. Thank you for the positivity! 🥰🥰
Love your new hair, love the kitted projects and especially love the out takes at the end. 😂 Anyone who leaves nasty comments is just jealous of your wonderful collection and anyone who is in to any kind of fibre art knows that collecting it is part and parcel of the joy we find in our hobby. It just makes me happy to look at my stash of yarn and cross stitch goodies.
Thank you! That is totally how I feel, collecting patterns and flosses and even my yarn is really fun for me and I like to have options for things that are ready to start. It’s so fun to just go through what you have too lol. Only another cross stitcher could understand!
Thanks for sharing! I love your projects and all your books in the background. I want to raid your library!
Thank you!! I love a good home library lol. I like having options 🥰🥰💖💖 lots of history books.
❤❤❤ So many great patterns in your future! 😊
🫶🏻💖💖 can’t wait to start some more Halloween stuff.
Your new haircut looks lovely on you! I’m new to cross stitch and you’re giving me wonderful ideas for projects. Thanks so much for all your vids!
Thank you for the support and for spending your time with me! 🥰🥰
Love! Love! Love! Thanks for sharing!
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching.
Oh. My. Goodness!!!! I just LOVE that a viewer sent you that kitted up project ( which is right up your alley!) in that precious pink project bag that she made for you! What a blessing!! I’m not surprised, though…there are so many wonderful people in this community, and that what makes our little world so amazing and fun. 🥰 So happy for you, and kudos to Dawn for her generosity and love! 💗
Wasn’t that just SO nice of her. I was blown away. This community is the best. Hope you’re well! Happy Friday my friend. Love you lady!!! 💖💖
@@TheSeattleStitcher Love you too, my sweet friend!!
I loved your floss tube. I have several of the same kitted up charts that you do. Never apologize for being excited about your hobby! If you weren't, I wouldn't watch you. Keep up the fabulous floss tubes.
Thank you so much, Cynthia. This hobby is so fun and the community is my favorite thing 🥰💖
So many great kits, Megan. So many great Halloween stitches in there. I love your new haircut.
Thank you, Mindy!
Grrrrrrllll! I just LOVE all your projects, and you're spot on for your fabric choice, so many super pretty fabrics! I absolutely love Jackson Fabric Arts!
Oh man, and Welcome Halloween is such a great pattern! It was staring me down at StitchCon!
Thank you so much! I absolutely love Halloween. I totally pulled out some of my Halloween decor this weekend lol! No self control. I love spooky season.
I lovelovelove WIP parades. They’re very much enabling but that’s ok by me. Folks who leave negs are just unhappy and don’t want others to enjoy their own lives. Thank you for your channel! I really enjoy watching it and I love your personality. ❤
Adore you sooo much. The hair is GORGEOUS Im so obsessed!! Loved seeing everything in this video! Definitely making a list of things I have my eye on from this vid 😍 May need to get that Practical Magic pattern!!
Eeeeee thank youuuuu!! 🥹💖🥹 you’re the best. Also please do get that practical magic! We can SAL it lol. Brijin and I plan to start it September maybe mid/end of month. It’s so cute.
@@TheSeattleStitcher omg yes would love to join in on a SAL!!! Gonna try and order it tomorrow!
Absolutely love all your kits and it is so fun to see all your fabric choices ❤keep kitting up as we love it!
Thank you for watching 🧡
So many great projects ready to go.
💖💖💖
I really enjoyed seeing what you have kitted up. Made some notes for those that caught my eye. I sometimes worry about kitting up too much as some of my fabric count preferences and pattern choices I find change as time goes on. I just wish I could stitch all the things as quickly as I see them ❤
Oh my goodness this totally happens to me! I think I will for sure use one fabric and then when I pull it out completely change my mind lol. It’s always nice to have some extra fabric stash for sure. That’s definitely where I could use some beefing up.
That kit parade was fabulous! I can't wait to see which one you start first.
Love your "new" hair and your joy for each piece. Happy Stitching!
Thank you, Becki! I seriously have saved so much time in the morning not having the long hair. It’s so much easier, I am obsessed. Thank you for always being kind to me 💖
Watching your Bloopers, you got a real bad case of “Floss Tube Nose”, lol!!! Awesome projects!
LOL every time!
Hi Megan!! I love your haircut, people would kill for your hair. I swear Megan you could be bald and still look adorable! Your stitching is absolutely amazing! Love your choices. Until next time stay cool sweetie. ♥️
Thank you Debra! Hope you’re doing well 💖💖
Omg! I put so many things on my to be kitted up list!
Great video! Love the pink on pink! 💕
Thank you! 💖💖💖
I love all your projects I’m the same way it’s so much fun to kit them up
It really is so fun!
I love the Spring and Autumn Quaker! I am currently stitching the Quaker Christmas by ByGone Stitches. You can definitely tell that Halloween is your favorite holiday...I love all of your kitted up projects!
Thank you! I can’t wait to start the autumn Quaker I think it’s stunning 😍
Love the new hair! Love the kit parade! Thank you for the awesome video ❤
Thank you so much!! I am so happy with the chop. 💖💖
Love the projects. I have a hard time kitting up a project and then not starting it. So I have several half kitted items because you know I can't start them with only half the stuff...lol. I do love the Prairie Schooler Halloween patterns. I might need to buy those soon. Thanks for sharing.
They are so cute those prairie schooler patterns. I almost want to snag them all up because they are amazing lol.
How rude of people to be so negative about stitching & flosstube.
They need to just go away.
You have a great collection of future starts & stash.
Love the bloopers! 😆
Marilyn
I feel really lucky that almost always it is positive comments on my channel and this community is so kind and generous. I really just wanted to make sure no one tried to say anything about how much I have accumulated in a year lol. I know it’s a lot and I don’t care 🤣💖. Thank you for your support!
I just fell in love with you ❤ You are so full of such great energy and life ….. Brava to you. Love your videos ❤❤❤ and the comment about no negativity is so perfect …….. I’ll be catching up on all of your videos
Oh my goodness. Thank you so much for your kindness. I appreciate you! And thank you for spending some of your day with me. 💖💖💖
You are so fun! I am just getting back in to the stitching and Flosstube groove and I am so happy I found you (via The Museum Stitcher). You are so joyful! It’s so great to see new Flosstubers (to me) bringing such a good vibe to this community! Breath of fresh air!
Thank you for the support! I love Brijin she is just the best 💖💖💖🥰
I admire your restraint in not starting anything you have kitted up. I try to avoid kitting stuff up because if I have everything THERE it’s too tempting to not sneak a teensy start in
Love you going at the negativity! YAY! You do you. 🙂
💖💖
Your new haircut is Fabulous ❤️❤️
Always love your videos and look forward to all your progress 😁
Thank you, Lisa! 💖💖💖
OMG!! I love your hair! So so cute! ❤ I love all your kitted up projects too! Can’t wait to see which you start next! 😊
Thank you so much!! I really like the shorter hair. It’s so much easier to work with in the morning.
Thank you for sharing. I have lots of kitted projects too. 😊.
Thank you for watching! 💖
Hi! Lots of beautiful kits to choose from! I love your passion for stitching! Your hair cut is darling! I love it! I have long thick hair and often wear it in a braid or an updo. I’m thinking about getting it cut but I’m old and afraid I’ll look older if I get it cut short and then I won’t be able to do my side braid or updo. Maybe I’ll just have two inches cut off🤷🏼♀️. I like the way yours is curled. My hair never stays curled, I’m lucky if it stays curled 10 minutes.😂 thank you for sharing! Happy Stitching!
I also have really thick hair and always worry when I get cuts that it will look too full around my face but this is the first time I can really say I absolutely love my cut! I say go for it. It’ll grow back 😁😁 I use a curling wand to get the textured waves and it’s SO fast. Love it. Happy stitching!
I love your new hairdo! Very flattering look and emphasizes your lovely bone structure. Of course, I have very short hair and just like short hair. Thanks for another visit.
Short hair club!!! Thank you so much for the compliment. I am really liking the shorter hair, it’s so much easier to get ready in the morning too. 💖💖
Super fun video and love your haircut
Thank you!! It’s seriously saved me so much time in the mornings already.
It's not nice if people say horrible things. I'd love to have more stash ❤ it's nothing to do with anyone else, you're not hurting anyone.
I love seeing what others have and like to stitch, thank you for sharing. You have given me inspiration for the zweigart blush that I have, I've been looking for something to stitch on it, now I can kit it up
Thank you so much for your kind words! That zweigart blush is just fabulous. Such a pretty soft color. Happy stitching friend.
Hi I’ve heard your name soo many times on Brigid’s channel so thought I would watch your video, ❤ I love your kits and will check out your wip parade ❤ 🎉
I absolutely love that lady!! Brijin is forever my stitchy twin 💖💖💖 thank you for checking out my channel.
Im obsessed with all your choices! Im so excited youre starting that pattern from Hello Halloween by Teresa Kogurt! I need to get a fabric and start mine! I recently joined her patreon and got access to her site where you can buy old patreon patterns I think I bought like 10 patterns hahah so much to love so little time! Thanks for the extra!!
She has SUCH cute Halloween stuff!! Love her style of designs. I can’t wait to start stitching that one. As if I need another huge Halloween piece LOL. I just love Halloween. 🧡🧡🧡
I’m so sorry people would say anything to you that is negative. Your new hair is stunning and I love your projects. I am anew stitcher and I buy things kit them up and then pet them lol I did the same with my yarn. I could literally never buy another skein and be fine but yet I still buy bc it makes me happy. Thanks for sharing
Are we the same person? 🤣💖🫶🏻. Honestly I just wanted to nip it in the butt before anyone could even try to be rude to me. I will block them and cry okay. LOL thank you so much for your kindness.
I love the colors you choose. Others may make the conversions, but you are wise enough to choose them. I do not even like pink, but I like the ones you have chosen.
Thanks Angie! 😁
I love your kitted projects. I have several of the same because I am such a fan of Halloween, and I have tons. Hang on to that HATS project. Someday your tastes may lean toward a reproduction sampler. I love the stories of those stitchers included in the booklets.
Please buy a special lovely blank book and record a pattern title per page and number the pp. Then make yourself an index in the back starting on the last page working backward starting with page 1 and title. These titles will slip your mind as time passes. You can go back when you start and record fabric and any notes. Trust me, years from now you'll walk past that piece on the wall and think...what year was that, title or fabric?
You are a breath of fresh air with your enthusiasm and eye for fabric.
What a great idea!! Thank you so much 💖💖 Halloween is the best, I really need to start more Halloween stuff.
Love your hair!! I have many kitted projects too! We all good over here! 😂💙💙💙
Thank you! Lol I love that I know I’m not the only one who has a lot of stuff 🤣💖
Loved your kit parade! Your fabric choices are beautiful!
Thank you! 😊😊
I’m also a kitter of quilts and cross stitch. I’ve had quilt kits I wanted sell out and then I’ve regretted it. I’ve never regretted a craft kit.❤
Totally agree I would rather something sit in stash for a while and see if I feel a pull to it some day.
Looks cute. First thing I noticed.
Thank you! 💖💖
LOVE your new hair!! I just got my cut of London fog a few days ago and it’s the most beautiful fabric ever. Definitely influenced by you to check out Jackson fabric arts and now I’m addicted haha
Thank you so much!
Isn’t it SUCH a good color. I feel like everything pops on it and it’s SO soft. I really think her shop would be perfect for anyone who stitches fancy ladies too because her super saturated colors.
You have to do Token of Love right away! That is gonna be stunning! Love all your projects. I have yet to get to that store in Issaquah but I have plans.
I am thinking about starting it as a valentines piece or a wedding anniversary piece later this year I can’t wait. You’re going to love thread needle street! Hope you get lots of goodies.
Hi Megan. First of all, your hair looks fabulous 😍 I loved, loved, loved this video. I could watch Kit and Wip parades all day long. My wallet may not feel the same way since I ended the video with a list of "must haves" 🤣 The only judgement I had about your Kitted up projects, was, what only 39????!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣 Love everything you do! Hope that you have a great weekend:) Inez
lol ya know what’s funny I left a whole kit out 🤣 I found it last night under my bookshelf o think it slipped under while I was filming. Thank you for being my safe judgment free zone 😆💖💖
I am beyond happy I’ve found your channel when I did! It’s been a huge highlight on my days that are a little bit harder to get through. I also love Halloween so I’m always so excited to see the Halloween stuff!! ♥️
Thank you so much for the support 🥰💖 I’m so glad I can be here for you like you all are for me!
I love your Flosstube, love all your project and i love to follow you 🥰🥰 love you have stitching and Knitting , that are so fun to watch the Norwegian style sweater, i really hope you would knit my pattern some day. And by the way! Your hair turned out stunning!! Hugs, Gurli 🇳🇴🥰🫶🌞👍
I would love too! Thank you for all your support 💖💖💖
HI Megan! LOVE a flosstube extra - literally I'll watch whatever it is because A) I'm nosy B) I always end up inspired to start a new project or pull out an old one. If you do end up de-stashing Anne Thomas, I would love to take it off your hands! I've been looking at that pattern forever because I think it'd make a perfect 30th birthday present for my best friend :) Anyway, enhoy the rest of your summer
Omg I am nosey too LOL I will definitely keep you in mind! 💖💖 happy stitching friend
I love your hair!! ❤ I want to get mine to that length… OCTOBER it was down to my crack 😅. I got about 8” cut then, and a few months ago got it cut shorter. Getting there haha.
I also have several kitted projects. Too many but I get floss or fabric when ever and then go back and add to the chart. ❤
Oh my goodness what a cut! I seriously have been loving it though it’s so much easier to take care of and it’s saved me SO much time. I’m loving it. Suits the mom life much better LOL. Happy stitching friend. Hope you have a great Friday!
Omg I do the same thing I kit up my projects way before I’m ready to start them
Idk why I’m like this LOL 😂 but I’m okay with it.
OMG, your haircut is so cute!!! I don't have as many as you do, but I don't think I've come into a particular style either. Anytime you are ready for the Salem Apothecary, let me know, and we could stitch that together. 😊
Thank you! I am really happy with the cut. It was totally spur of the moment kind of choice but I love it so far. I’ll definitely let you know!! I love a SAL lol.
Ignore the negativity; those are the ones that need our prayers. They have not found our joy. I only have about 10 WIPS. But I LOVE TO PIP A PROJECT. So I have much more waiting to be started. Judges of others are unhappy people. Ignore them.
Thank you so much! You are so right Angie 🫶🏻💖
@@TheSeattleStitcher this is what I say to people who try to attack me: I am sorry that you are so unhappy. Then I move away from them. It usually leaves them with their mouth open, then they leave me alone.
Your hair is always gorgeous but I love the cut! So pretty! 😍
Thank you so much! 🥹💖💖
I’m also going to do Teresa Kogut’s Hello Halloween. It will only be my second project, but I can’t wait to get it done…because I want it on my wall. I kitted it up this week and plan to start this week. I was waiting for a magnifying light to be delivered so I can freaking see. 😂
I absolutely love all of your projects.
Omg that’s gonna be awesome!! I absolutely love Teresa Kogut’s Halloween stuff she does the cutest patterns. Halloween is my favorite 🤩 🎃
I know this is an old flosstube but this was a great episode:)
Thank you!
And your hair is gorgeous ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you! 🥹💖
Thanks for another fun video. I’m not huge into Halloween but you and your friends are definitely influencing me! Looking forward to your regular flosstube episode. 😊❤
I’ll definitely be uploading one this weekend. 💖💖 thank you for the support!
@@TheSeattleStitcher I forgot - I just looked at luminous fiber arts Etsy and she has that Enchanted Quaker in a PDF!
Score!!
Hi Megan
Love love your Hair Cut - your hair is so pretty - I love it.
Love all of your Kitted up projects.
I so want to start Summer Quaker but I need to buy the Fabric for it. I also want to start Summer Montage by Pain Free Crafts. All I need is the Fabric.
Take Care & Happy Stitching
❤️🤗🧵🪡🧵❤️
Thank you, Linda! Hope you’re well and enjoying your summer. You are going to just love the summer Quaker. Happy stitching my friend 💖🫶🏻
