I hope this finds you all well. ❤❤❤ Thank you so much, my envelope arrived today ❤. It was such a nice surprise to receive the mail, like you things/life has been crazy for me as well and I have not been able to catch up on floss tube so I did today 😊. Thank you so much again, your envelope really made my day, it was a much needed boost 😊 ❤❤❤

Life happens and some projects are definitely ones to need the right mindset on. This year I wanted to get 70k+ stitches into my HAED…yea…not happening…I’m like 10.5k done. But family things and pet things have sabotaged my efforts for the HAED this year. But I’ve got plenty of easier projects that also need work, and I’ve had 12 finishes (mostly smalls) so it’s working out. I’ve had 8 starts so I’m finishing more than I start which is helpful too…but the start itch is trying to get me to scratch it. Maybe if I don’t cut fabric down I’ll be less inclined to start all the things? And this is a prime example of how busy life has been…I’m like 3 weeks behind (some videos are watch whenever so not counting them as behind on) on my KZbin watch list and have 228 videos in the queue. Can I get down to 215 using 2x speed today? I caught up on 2 floss tubers (only a few videos or short ones) so yay me? But trying to do a mix of longer videos and shorter ones to try & get the total number lower but not feel overwhelmed by all long videos at the end. So after your wip parade, I think a few 30-40 min videos, toss in a couple 15 min ones, then a few hour long ones, perhaps just complete a few more flosstubers so I’m up to date on frequent posters. Choices choices… But first, the obligatory pause on the parade so I can go do dishes.

As for wipgo, it doesn't work for me. Life happens & I'm finding I prefer to work on what I feel like. The closest to a wipgo board I would consider in the future would be a cheater board of "stitch on whatever you want" for every square.

The Bell Flower is so beautiful. Wish I had that pattern in my collection so I could do it one day. I have so many HAED myself that I need to work on XD Most of my projects are BAP. I so wish I could be able to buy the Namarie Tapestry and the fabric... hopefully one day
@britches__get__stitches 5 ай бұрын
Gah, I love your fabric for New Normal! That pattern has been on my wish list for awhile, so you're really tempting me to start it... I'm a BAP stitcher as well. I'm realized that I don't have many small to mediums, so I might need to alter that, hahaha! I also envy the way you can get rid of plans and WIPs. I'm so behind on some plans and I've fallen out of love of some WIPs, but I can't make my head get rid of them, bleh! But thank you for a great video!
@RachelRaeFiberArts 4 ай бұрын
It's taken me a while to come to terms with the fact that not all patterns will be enjoyable for my brain to stitch, even though I absolutely love the image. I think this year I finally accepted it and I'm okay with it!
@tellmeayarn1801 5 ай бұрын
I abandoned WIPGO as of last month. It's not that I couldn't keep up, it's that I had put projects on it that I didn't want to work on and half my board was new starts. I decided I didn't want to do those new starts anymore. I have found myself drawn lately to single color samplers like Long Dog Pandemic and You Belong To Me as well as the Ink Circles Elemental Dragons. So I decided to concentrate on what makes me happy right now, and those are making me happy.

Hello Rachel! I have a question. For the Gaia Earth Goddess that you’re stitching, how many threads are you using and on what count of fabric? I’m wanting to start mine soon and I noticed it says use three threads for 14/28 ct.

Rachel! Greetings from Dallas! It was so much fun to see all your WIPs! I remember all of them as I am one of your original followers. I started out as a diamond painter and that’s how I initially found you. And you are the one that inspired me to get back into Cross Stitch! The first piece that I did was twisted rainbow sampler after seeing yours. It remains one of my favorite stitches. I also bought and kit it up, but have not yet started, the Japanese Zen Garden by Chatelaine. I am a little intimidated by this piece, but will start it at sometime. You have had a great influence on both my Diamond Painting and my Cross Stitch! Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️
@RachelRaeFiberArts 5 ай бұрын
:D You're the best. <3 I appreciate your support over the years! Yes, rainbow sampler is one I plan to frame and display... It's so beautiful and I want people to be able to get right up to it and see how gorgeous those specialty stitches are. Same with the chatelaine...but it is a labor of love for sure.

Hello Rachel, I had a comment all ready to send and had to step away for a moment to do something. Upon returning, my comment had disappeared. Please know that I am shy as well. People cannot usually tell with me either. Your embroidery pieces are very beautiful, and the one-of-a-kind silk floss is lovely. ❤ your Elvish scissors. Have you ever intuitively crafted something, then wondered how to replicate it? You probably never have a problem. Are you vegan? Am not at the end of the video yet, but I am going to send my comment now before it disappears.

I plan to knit the Nightshift eventually, too! I'm not set on getting any specific shades of the Spincycle, so I've been slowly acquiring them from sales or destashes. I got one for $29 from a LYS on vacation last year, and two for $15 each from an Instagram destash. Since you will be in the US for 2 weeks, you could have luck buying from the "will trade of sell" stash listing on Ravelry. The going rate seems to be mid to high $20s shipped in the US. I also plan to use a handspun or two, since I recently got into spinning.
