- Thank you for tuning in! Pre-orders for my 2023 SAL Are now live!
REACHING SKYWARD: www.modernfolk...
ALTERNATIVE TREES: www.modernfolk...
Early Birds (the first 300 purchasing a PDF pre-order from my site, and the first 100 purchasing a print pattern from www.evertote.ca) will receive invites to 3 zoom events hosted by me during 2023, where I will talk about the inspiration behind the pattern. There will also be plenty of time to ask questions during these meetings!
As with every SAL, this year we'll be using the hashtag #MFESAL2023 - by using this hashtag we can follow what we are all stitching.
Lovely!
Thank you! :)
Your patterns are gorgeous Jacob, I love the colours you choose which so compliment the designs.
You are now one of my favorite designers.
Thank you Claire! :)
Gorgeous! I'm probably a late bird now huh?

I never got more than 2000 stitches in a month, but I saw the beautiful pattern and just had to get it. I will use dark blue aida and silver and sky blue threads. I am looking so forward to it.
Thank you so much, that sounds lovely!!! :)
I can't tell you how much I love this pattern. I stopped the video to buy it and the 4 different centers. You are an amazing designer and a beautiful human. Thank you!
Thank you so much!!!!
Oh beautiful!!! Thank you!
Thank you Deanna!
I had decided not to do your 2023 SAL since I still had 2021 and 2022 to finish. The I saw the screen grab for this episode a few days ago and was thinking "if I can finish 2022 I'll join 2023"....then I watched the episode (while working on the 2022 MFE SAL) - and I pre-ordered. You really messed with my self control this time, lol....I love the pattern! The detail is amazing, there are dogs AND trees ... thank you for the beauty you bring to the world!
Thank you so much Terri! I've had such a great time designing this and it's really exciting to finally send it out into the world quite soon! :)
Jacob! That is STUNNING!!!!! I’m monogamous stitching next year to try and get a finish - but I think this needs to be my birthday start in June. 😍
Thank you Tess!
A beautiful design Jacob and the amount of time and thought that has been put into it shines through. Its lovely, well done 🙂
Thank you so much!
Jacob, you did it again and then some! Jacob, you know I have been waiting for this video and wow did you surprise me with being able to see the full design. And what a design it is. I think it is your best design ever. It is amazing and gorgeous, beautiful and fantastic. Plus, we have options. Where do I even begin. Jacob, you are the best and I cannot wait to start. Thank you for a great 2023 SAL.
Aw thank you so much Deb...! I probably shouldn't have favourites (like you shouldn't have a favourite child) but this one I think is my favourite design as well... :D
Wow…Truly a stunning piece of artistry.
Thank you Dee!!!
Jacob - your new chart for 2023 is beautiful.
Thank you so much Peg!!!!
Absolutely beautiful designs, Jacob! Thank you for sharing your talent. ❤
Thank you Janet!!!
I love your new MFE design and the colors you chose are so beautiful.

Jacob…you are amazing! I’m looking forward to stitching the tree patterns on Aida cloth. Thank you. Barb
Thank you Barb! Good having you on board! :)
Stunning design, I just ordered. Perfect timing for me, I just finished Agnus Dei. I look forward to choosing fabric and colors.
Yay! Thank you Loreen!
I didn't get to watch the video until after we got back from Thanksgiving with the in-laws but as soon as I finished the video I was on Evertote's website placing my order. Looking forward to this one even though I haven't finished Fruits of Plenty yet.
Yay! That's so good to hear Mary Ann! Thank you :)
@@ModernFolkEmbroidery You're welcome.
My first SAL!!!! I'm really excited. BTW I could never leave a decision to a flip of a coin.... I can't wait. Thank you Jacob!

Thank you!!!
Absolutely beautiful and the alternative options are great! So glad it is also broken down in 12 months.
Thank you so much Renee - the 12 months, even if you wouldn't stick to them, is just a nice way to have a sense of progress and make it manageable I think... :D
Oh Jacob, this is just stunning!! I am so thrilled with this incredible design!!!
Thank you so much Shiloh!
You’ve outdone yourself! Beautiful work!
Thank you so much Pam!
Oh my GOODNESS. You are incapable of letting anyone down. Every single pattern is as good or better than the last. True and utter perfection. Thank you for sharing your designs with the world. I need to finish the 2020 SAL which I started this year before I can choose another big one, but I adore the 2023 SAL! Thanks again. ❤
:D Thank you so much!!!!
I’m super excited!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Yayyy!!! Me too!!!! :D

Jacob, so nice to hear your voice and hear what you say……I decided that I need another set of hands, otherwise I won’t be able to do all the things I want to do. And hey, have you knitted that beautiful sweater that you’re wearing…..gorgeous.
Thank you so much Isabel! I wish I had made that sweater - it's a simple store bought one that I got earlier this week. And I can tell you that we need it at the moment as it's so cold here...!
Absolutely stunning and I can't wait to start. Thank you for a beautiful pattern.
Thank you Vasiliki!
I love this one! I'm doing the Holiday SAL as a warmup and will go take a look at the 2023 SAL soon.
Yay! Thank you Barbara!!!
I'm in 😍 So beautiful. Jane Eyre goes to the back of the pile, though.
Hahahaha!!! Thank you so much Judith - poor Jane though...! ;)
Brilliant, Jacob. I love seeing your joy and enthusiasm for this chart. As always, thank you for your amazing creativity.
:D Thank you so much Sarah!!!
Gorgeous! I have a no new charts resolution for 2023, so appreciate the early announcement 😋
Thank you Terri! :)
Congratulations on this new 2023 SAL, you have given so many alternatives, it is hard to pick. Thank you so much for your hard work and your generous nature that you share with the stitching world. Warm hugs from sunny Arizona.
Thank you Mary - happy stitching!!! :)
Evening Jacob.. I am stitching oan SPIRITS OF THE DEAD while visiting with you tonight. for #blacksamplernovember. I hope to have it finished by the end o the month. Beautiful pattern.
Thank you so much Louisa - that's awesome to hear! I need to start my 2nd project for Black Sampler November, and I need to do an update video...! I've just been a bit busy this month with... SALs! :P
Oh, oh - I'm in love. Had to pause my viewing to buy right away. Then began watching again & saw the patterns for the alternative trees. They will be lovely little stitches. This time I waited until the video was over just in case there was a 3rd pattern. I love these, but will wait until the 1st to begin. I'm currently stitching M Bell, A La Rose, and Biedermeier Bouguet. and enjoying all three.
Thank you so much Rose, that's really cool! :). Yay for waiting until the 1st! :D
Beautiful charts Jacob!
Thank you Joanne!
Ordered!! Can’t wait to start. Now to decide on fabric and floss!!
Yay! Oh decisions decisions... I love playing with floss and changing my mind a million times! :D
Love this design Jacob
Thank you so much Constance!
This is the best stitch-a-long yet - and you've had some amazing ones! I paused the video and went to put in my pre-order. Thank you so much.
Aw that is so great to hear - thank you so much Debby!!!!
Not surprising you have done another stunning pattern for the 2023 SAL. I have not stitched any of your SALs as it is not my kind of stitching but even though I don't stitch them, I love seeing others stitching them as they are simply beautiful charts.
Thank you so much Sue - that's really nice to read! :)
I’m in!!! My first MFE SAL! Jacob, the design is gorgeous! ❤
Yay! Thank you so much!!!!
A truly gorgeous design Jacob! I think this is one of the most inspiring designs I’ve ever seen. Thank you for sharing your gift with us. 🥰
Thank you so much Cheryl - I'm really happy with it myself, and it might just be one of my favourite patterns I've done... am I allowed to say that? :P
Cannot wait!!!
Yay! Thank you Laurie! :)
looks interesting...need to know a bit more...got here late.
Thank you Carol! The video remains live so you can watch it again and all info is on the website as well :)
I always look forward to your projects. I went quickly to preorder a booklet. It's s beautiful design. Love all the different options.
Thank you so much Debbie!
🤩🤩🤩
:D Thank you Kaylee!!!
This is brilliant and beautiful! Echoing what many others said, thank you for breaking it up into 12 months. It makes it much more manageable.
Thank you so much Michelle! I think it makes for really nice goals to reach... and I tried to keep them all around the 4000 crosses mark. I am *so excited* about this one. I feel I didn't say the words "i'm excited" enough in this video 🤣🤣🤣
😮 Oh my word! It is breathtaking. I literally gasped. You have really outdone yourself this year. The alternative patterns is a brilliant idea. Wow.
Thank you so so much - that means a lot! :)
Just put in my order with Evertote! Looking forward to stitching this in 2023.
Thank you so much Deb, that's great to hear! :)
I've been (im)patiently waiting for the MFE 2023 SAL. I perused (stalked) your website (and instagram) hoping for this pattern and I am so so happy it's finally official. Now I'm off to buy the patterns...and floss...and fabric 👏💃👏🎉🎊
Yay! Thank you so much Frida - that means the world to me :)
This is absolutely beautiful, and I love all the customizable options! I can’t wait for the stitch along!
Thank you so much Sarah - I can't wait either!!! :D
Perfect timing Jacob. I was just beginning to think about what I might stitch for myself in 2023 & up pops your video. I love the pattern with all its variations so I signed up straight away. Even better, my husband, who happened to be at home as I watched your live, liked it as well so he'll keep me on track as he wants to see it finished. Now the fun of picking colours & fabric. Thank you Jacob. Best wishes from 🇮🇪
Thank you so much Anne Marie! It's great having a supporter cheer you on with a project... really makes you want to reach that finish line! :D.
Its so beautiful!
Thank you Kate!!!!
Beautiful pattern can’t wait to start working on it with all of you
Yay - thank you Gaby! :)
Beautiful pattern Jacob! I wish I could join but I’m sad to say I’m going to bow out this year. I just finished the SAL from 2021 today. I’m prepping it to post a photo on FB. It turned out really beautiful. I’m taking a little break for now to focus a bit on family and the holidays. This time of year tends to get a little hectic. 😅 Thanks for sharing!
Thank you Jennifer! No worries at all - it's good to take time and you can always come back to it later if you like - it'll always remain out there! :D
Another stunning design Jacob, just beautiful. So appreciative of all the extras you include, makes for a fun and enjoyable stitch. Your designs are a delight to stitch and I’m looking forward to this one most definitely. Thank You 😊
Thank you Claire!!!!
I love everything about this pattern!! I am jumping in on this SAL and I can’t wait!! I love that you have included so many alternatives so it can be personalized and unique.😮 I love that you have included the number of skeins needed for each color so we can stock up and be ready! Thank you for your hard work in putting together an amazing pattern. 😀
Thank you so much Sara - glad you like it!!!
Your patterns and SALs are always amazing, but this is my favorite one! It'll be my first of your yearly SALs. Thank you for all of the customization options as well!
Thank you so much Tasha!!!
Ordered from Evertotes and so excited to participate in my first MFE SAL! Jacob, it's a beautiful design and I love all the options. Now to choose colours...
That's awesome! Thank you so much - hope you'll enjoy the project!
You never cease to amaze us all with your incredible vision and talent. I wish I had watched yesterday but got too busy as I know I am too late to be in the first 300. Thanks for sharing your amazing talent either us!!
Thank you Heidi! :)
I knew it … I love mystery SALs but the fact that you broke it out in 12 parts is appreciated. Otherwise, my OCD forces me to stitch like a fiend until it’s completed. Ordering today. Thank you so much for your artistry. Just ordered. Cross stitch patterns are beautiful but MFE charts are works of art. Seriously.
Aw thank you so much - that really is lovely to read :)
Amazing design, Jacob! Any chance to release it on the Silk app?
Thank you! Unfortunately it's not suitable for the Silk app as it comes with so many alternatives and that's kind of the whole idea of this design. I would've loved it though if it was possible! :)
I can cook and watch at the same time, looking forward to it Jacob!
Hahaha thank you Lorrie!
Beautiful design Jacob! Very inspiring! I've ordered and am excited for 2023! ✨
Thank you so much!!!
I've been wanting to join one of your year long SAL but am always a little hesitant on mysteries. I'm glad to see this compete pattern and know that there can still be some mystery with the flip of a coin. Off to pre-order. Thank you.
Yay! That's wonderful to read Susan - thank you so much :)
Thanks for sharing
Thank you!
Well what can I say I have completed two of your previous SALs and have kept up with this years and had decided I wouldn’t do next years, that’s now gone out of the window as I have preordered it already and think it’s the best yet. Your brilliant!
Haha thank you so much Jane - that's awesome!!!
Well it is beautiful, a masterpiece! I love that it has variations to make it unique to the stitcher. I won’t change the verse though, as it is already lovely. Looking forward to January now! ❤❤❤
Thank you so much Tami! I love the line as well, and I had never heard of the poet! :)
This is beautiful, Jacob! I’m so excited to stitch it!
Yay! That's what I like to hear!!! :D Thank you 😀
Love this! I don’t care if you’re doing this on Thanksgiving Day!
:D thank you Anna!!!
Happy Thanksgiving from the U.S. Jacob! I wanted you to know that I am about a third of the way through stitching M Bell and I am loving every minute of it ❤
Thank you so much Tami! I finished the alphabet section and am about to start the Quaker part - and I'm excited about that! :D
It's beautiful! I am stitching my first Modern Folk Embroidery, your Julebokken, and because I am enjoying stitching it so much, I already know I want to stitch another of your patterns. I am definitely participating in this!
How will we know if we are one of the first 300/100? I have my pre-order in at Evertote!
Thank you so much Katrina! I'll go through the details next week and will send an email out once Evertot and I get our figures together :D.
I have ordered from Evertote and can’t wait to start. Your colors are wonderful and what I will be using. Now to decide on fabric. I will have to see what Caroline and Kari come up with.
Thank you! I am excited to watch that video as well...!!!!
