It's hard to believe that there are people out there who don't like me 😅 There's actually one person (I don't actually know if it's the same person every time or not) who dislikes every video within the first 10-15 minutes of me uploading it. It's probably one of my ex girlfriends 😂
Okey… 🙌🏽🤣🤣😍 I loved seen melissa, and so good You treat yourself also for Darcy I laughed so hard with the picture save her about getting in trouble @stitch North🤣🤣
Oh my goodness that Blue Jays hat gave me flashbacks to my 90s Canadian childhood 😂 I used to get pretty similar heckling for needlecraft, which culminated in a man at a bar asking me to knit him a pair of underwear "because I'm not wearing any." Oooooh noooo. I imagine you got it worse though. Thanks for continuing to put a dude face on our craft!
Melissa - if you don't want to carry threads across the back for those stitches across from each other you could run the thread under the other stitches on the back. Up, across, then back down to where you need to do the additional stitches.
My stitch man darcy mantra is never forget to turn the volume down before clicking, I forgot to turn the volume down, and now my bobbins are all over the floor. A video well worth the mess and ear drum damage though 😄
I read Richard the Third, because s painting hangs in the Louvre (children he killed). I also saw Olivier's production. Baby you're a rich man too. Jacob mentioned you.
If you buy the Leo and Roxy Floss you should ask if you can get a whole batch. Because it’s hand dyed and it’s obviously prone to slight color variations. Ask Caroline at Evertotes what she recommends.
😂 Looking forward to meeting you at Stitch North. My friend and I are coming from the colder end of Ontario, it will be our first retreat as well. We're beer lovers too. I'd bring some for you from our local breweries but we're flying. Luckily, there is an LCBO right across the parking lot from the hotel (I already checked 😉). Cheers 🍻
I thoroughly enjoyed the epic movie quotes! I got most of them. Lol. I'm currently on the wait list for the April weekend for Stitch North. I could've gotten into the May weekend but the April one is on my bday so figured it was meant. Fingers crossed I get to go. 🤞 Glad you found the Oatmeal Aida. That's was always and continues to be my favorite fabric even though I've found all of the new stuff through the Flosstube community. 😆
FYI I’m going to be starting one of your patterns today, I love you to death 😃😃😃 super excited to see how it stitches up, looks like it’s going to turn out really nice 😊
Is that recent?! I actually messaged Sally from Caterpillar Cross Stitch once and she told me it was only available as part of a special basket and there weren't any left. If it's available on its own now, that's awesome!!!
Thinking about what you had said, "strangest hobby"... I did the same thing, announced I cross stitched and I was called old at heart. Little did they know that there are a bunch of younger stitchers too. Darcy I love you and your family.
Fab video guys! For Melissa - the Stitchrovia Sun pattern is a kit available from Caterpillar Cross Stitch in UK. Emma Congdon designed it for CCS. Hope that helps. Darcy, you are supremely talented at designing and no, it’s not boring to hear about your designing journey.
Yeah a couple of people have told us. That must be a recent-ish thing because I actually asked Sally from Caterpillar Cross Stitch a while ago, and she said it was only available as part of a special basket or something, and there weren't any left. But that's exciting that we can get it now!!!!
Love this vidio know this comments late but the here comes the sun chart on caterpillars cross stitch for sale as a kit was one of the subscriptions box charts.
For Melissa: I saw a Here Comes The Sun pattern from Shannon Christine (I think) on 123 Stitch. It's got a very bright and cheery color palette and I love it.
I look forward to your videos. My husband heard you in the background and said “what are you watching? He sounds interesting.” As a retired AP English teacher I am so onboard for your new stitch. Don’t know when I’ll stitch it but it’s nice to know it’s out there.
Great to catch up with you, King! That MFE 23 sal does look really good in that colorway. Lovely to see Melissa... I think Shannon Christine might have a Here Comes the Sun pattern and Stitchrovia might have one in her Cross-Stitch for the Earth book? So excited for Stitch North!! 🙈🙉🙊 PS: Your awkward clip of holding the framed piece is hilarious!
Yay!!! Congrats on another awesome pattern you were at 100 and I bumped you three more, congratulations and keep up the great work! One of my favorite cross stitch artists!!
you love the blue jays and have a boatload of 798. seems like fate. i will be at stitch north in april too. i will be far too shy to approach all you celebs. i have never been to any retreat. i will bring treats from bc.
OMG a Blue Jays stitch!!! YES!!! Please don't be shy!! We're not celebs, we're a bunch of nerds sitting alone in our living rooms and I promise you I'm as nervous as you are. I've never been to a retreat either!
Richard III is actually my favorite Shakespearian play. I did a deep analysis of it for my senior thesis in college. (I also did another senior paper on The Simpsons Movies, so I have broad academic interests.)
Do you know what song has gone through my head for the past three days? I think you refer to it as the Trixie Tricycle song-it’s the 2022 Jacob SAL song. Because the concept of you and Stitch Lady working together is just so sweet and adorable … apparently my brain wants to remind me of it every 3 hours, or so! 🤣
Great video as always. Good to see Melissa again, the chart 'Here Comes the Sun' was from a box from Caterpillar Cross Stitch here in the UK. I think they have released it now as a kit, not sure if you can just get the chart though, check them out.
I got to you from Betsy and I got to Betsy from StitchuationNormal - another favourite Canadian FlossTuber of mine because I’m Canadian and I like Canadian things, and Betsy.
A couple of other Canadian Flosstube recommendations, if you're interested and don't already watch - Maximum Cross Stitch Power Hour, RyRy McGuy, Meghan Poco, and Thread The Needle.
Loved the video as usual, especially watching past Darcy as you talked about the piece you gave your Mom. I also loved seeing the things you had stitched in the past. Do you remember what any of the patterns were or who they were by? I especially liked the snowman and cat one. Take a look at the Long Dog Samplers for all that Dmc 798 or maybe another Modern Folk Embroidery? Nice to see Melissa again. Tell her that Chris did say he was doing Spooky Summer Stitch again.
Thank you!! Yes, I enjoyed me hovering over my own shoulder a lot more than I even expected to 🤣 If you're interested in digging through my archives, I have a super old video that I called "Flosstube #3.5" in which I actually toured the walls of my mom's house and talked about my whole history of stitching. That's where the little clips in this video came from.
@@maryannjohnson5410 Also, I should have mentioned, if you don't want to rewatch the whole thing I can tell you what you want to know, if I remember. 😂 The one you mentioned is called "Snowman With Black Cat" and it's a Mystic Stitch pattern.
I wish I had heard about Stitch North sooner as it is sold out. I am joining the wait list though!!!! I live within driving distance, I can’t miss out 😢 I would love, love to meet you and all the other fun floss tubers who are going!
This far in advance it's probably likely that some people bought tickets "just in case" and will drop out as it gets closer and they realize they can't make it. So don't give up hope!!
Hi Darcy, another great video. I could not stop laughing at you talking about playing floss chicken! I thought it was just me that did it! So glad it’s not just me. I have a question for you. Since starting your channel, what’s the best advice you have been given from another cross stitcher? Take care 🥰
I love your editing style. Your videos are so much fun. Are you going to pass along your UFO? I think that project is pretty with either colors. But your second choice does match the your other piece better. You will have to do a Long Dog sampler with that blue floss lol.
Fellow flosstuber Mad Morti asked if she could adopt the UFO and I said yes, but I've been pretty lazy about actually sending it off to her. It'll get there eventually 😂
You will have so much fun. I am going the second weekend. Pam is going the weekend your going. I can’t remember who else is going that weekend. Start saving your money because the vendors have so much stitching stuff.
Omg the dramatization 🤣 Love the MFE redux in Leo & Roxy floss! All your movie lines. Literally, that is my brain all day. I'm lucky if people know which movie I'm referring to. 😆 All your wips look awesome! Let's see... I've never seen that Richard III and thanks for helping us raise our IQ's temporarily. Have you see the Richard III with Ian McKellen? I enjoy how they reenacted the line "A horse! A horse! My kingdom for a horse!" It's based in 1940's, I believe , and Richard III gets stuck in a jeep . So, that was clever. 🤪
I (and I'm sure others) tried very hard to convince Jacob to come, but I don't think it's going to happen. But there will be a whoooole lot of super cool people there!!
I cannot imagine why anyone would dislike your video. You are definitely one of a kind and I always look forward to your craziness 🤪
It's hard to believe that there are people out there who don't like me 😅 There's actually one person (I don't actually know if it's the same person every time or not) who dislikes every video within the first 10-15 minutes of me uploading it. It's probably one of my ex girlfriends 😂

Omg some of your old stitches are STUNNING 🤩
Woo Hoo for the April weekend! Me too!! Look forward to meeting you!

Watch out stitchy world. Melissa and I are taking on the world as BEST FRIENDS.
I don't think the world is ready 😂
Melissa - if you don't want to carry threads across the back for those stitches across from each other you could run the thread under the other stitches on the back. Up, across, then back down to where you need to do the additional stitches.
Someone may have already alerted Melissa, but tell her Stitchrovia has added the pattern she's looking for to her shop a couple weeks ago. Cheers! 🍻
A Long Dog Sampler would look great in dmc 798
My stitch man darcy mantra is never forget to turn the volume down before clicking, I forgot to turn the volume down, and now my bobbins are all over the floor. A video well worth the mess and ear drum damage though 😄
I cranked the Psycho music up on purpose. Sorry about that 😂
I read Richard the Third, because s painting hangs in the Louvre (children he killed). I also saw Olivier's production. Baby you're a rich man too. Jacob mentioned you.
StitchNorth !!! woot woot ! Absolutely the best time was had this year, already anticipating next year with joy.
I'm excited!!
Love your progress and hair... Melissa :D

So close! 3992!!
Past Darcy hovering over Present Darcy's shoulder is AMAZING

@@StitchManDarcy I will post a review of it next weekend on my next video but I’m already suspecting it’s going to be fabulous 😁
Melissa, Caterpillar cross stitch has the kit of here comes the sun
Is that recent?! I actually messaged Sally from Caterpillar Cross Stitch once and she told me it was only available as part of a special basket and there weren't any left. If it's available on its own now, that's awesome!!!
Looks like it is in stock.

Love this vidio know this comments late but the here comes the sun chart on caterpillars cross stitch for sale as a kit was one of the subscriptions box charts.
When I’m trying to use as much floss as I can, I’ll use a petite needle to squeeze that last bit of thread into the fabric.
Great progress on Chessie & your Jacob SAL.
Your past stitches are gorgeous!

I know several people going to the May weekend too. It's going to be a blast no matter which weekend it is!
Yes it is…. 🤐

@@StitchManDarcy I see! I'll have to check it out if I can get my hands on it! Al Pacino was absolutely spectacular as Shylock in Merchant of Venice!
I’m going to Stitch North !!!! Same weekend as you, Weirdo
I know, I'm going to sneak into your room in the middle of the night just to use your toilet.
I heard about you from Stitchycatlady26 and I think Sharon from Fun with Cross stitch and I’m so glad because I love your video’s 😀x
Fun video, laughed at your Dramatization photos!!! I’ll be at April23 Stitch North, look forward to meeting you! Will MFE Jacob be attending?!?!
I (and I'm sure others) tried very hard to convince Jacob to come, but I don't think it's going to happen. But there will be a whoooole lot of super cool people there!!
When did you buy Chessie? I don't see it on HAED
Editing is amazing. Did you major in film? 😁
I always love your videos! Does Melissa have a new hair color? She looks amazing!
Yes, she changed it recently. I love it!
I’m laughing… that’s all. 🙈
Enjoyed Video. Love your restart on MFE. Both look great. What count is that on and the qsnap size your are using??
It's 18 count and the q snap is 8x11 (it's and 11x11 and an 8x8 pieced together).
I know I mentioned you in my video a couple weeks ago but I don't even have enough followers myself for you to see a huge increase from me haha.

Very entertaining as always love to see Melissa again xx

Get on the wait list!!!!
@@StitchManDarcy just did, my friend. Hello to Melissa and I'm on the hunt for Here Comes the Sun.🌞
Okay, that curtain behind Melissa is Ghost Adventures level of creepy.

Let your freak flag fly
If you’re the King of Cross Stitch, does that mean Chris, Melissa, Noah, and the others are your Wack Pack?
Youreeoretty cool, how old are you? 30 years of stitching?
I'm 39 ... some days I feel way older though 😂
