You got some great fabrics, I got a box also. I only got two of the fabrics you did, the Cat in the Hat and the Mon Jardin. It is fun to see other boxes and compare them to mine. I didn't get any panels or Halloween fabrics, and as I said only two of the fabrics you got.

Beautiful WIPs. I've got over 200 and I definitely feel the need to stop the super starting and get some finishes in. I went through and picked 75 to focus on. I really don't have any advice because to me , I either want finishes or I don't. I've had a "come to Jesus" chat with my stitchy bug and she's in the understanding now that next year is the year of finishing not starting 🤞😉

I feel your pain. I hope to have that with my stitxhy bug, but she has locked herself in my craft room and refuses to come out! 🤣🤣🤣. I have the boards made up and hoping she sees them and realizes we need to get them done. Merry Christmas!

My first video from you! Really enjoyed this and REALLY like most of your choices!! I am 1 year back to cross stitch after a looong hiatus - it is very hard to stop myself from jumping in BIG TIME. I just turned 71 and need to figure out just what I want to leave behind... I have watched a few of the newer stitchers to flosstube and they have an APP on their phone that spins a wheel and each segment on the wheel is named with a WIP - whatever it stops on is what they stitch on that day - one lady works on it for 3 days. I like that idea as it takes away the pain of having to choose.... now to figure out my phone and get the APP on it... Ha! The other thing I do is listen to an audiobook - I can focus on what I'm stitching and keep my brain tuned in to a good listen! Have a wonderful Christmas!

Welcome to my channel, and welcome back to stitching! I took a 15 year hiatus from stitching and returned in 2016 and it has been full steam ahead. You can get a good laugh by watching my first video 🤣🤣🤣. I have done the wheel before, and like everything else, it falls to the wayside. I am hoping by seeing the pics posted on the boards on my wall each day it will remind me of the great WIPs that I have and encourage me to get them done. I do other needlework as well, so I need to focus on giving time to all my crafting endeavors. Thank you so much for allowing me to spend some time with you, and you find my channel enjoyable. Merry Christmas!!

My issue is out of sight, out of mind. I think maybe the board will help keep me focused.

I have that forest piece kitted up for a 2525 start! I have a piece of the palest green linen. Can’t wait to get started on it. Lots of beautiful projects ahead of you. Maybe it would help you to sort into seasons,and instead of trying to touch all of them, work diligently on one seasonal, and one “everyday” until they are finished. Maybe that high of finishing will encourage you to fully finish more. But always keep in mind it is a hobby, not a job! Merry Christmas!

I hate to tell you how long my Earth Dancer sat waiting for her beads and her fringe (I think enough time passed that she could have legally purchased an adult beverage). I generally don't mind beading, but I used a hand-dyed fabric and I was afraid some of the densely beaded areas just wouldn't work. It felt so wonderful to have her finished! Miss Christmas Eve is lovely - I'll be virtually cheering you on to get her beaded. I love "parade season".. thanks for sharing all of your lovely pieces with us! I'm definitely a ""stitch what I want" kind of girl. Setting rules for myself makes me rebel immediately!!! I did WIPGO in 2024, which worked well for me without feeling like I set rules. I actually had 3 boards - I had one with my WIPs on it, and I set a goal of working on each piece for 4 days.. a "day" would be a stitching session. It could be 2 hours on a work night or 6 hours on a weekend day when I didn't have any plans. Then I had a board for ornaments that I had kitted up and never started (from back in the early 2000s no less!) My goal there was to get a good start on them, but I finished most that I started. My last board was to FFO ornaments that were stitched but never made into ornaments. My plans went well until I ran into a 2 week vacation followed by the time to do some secret stitching for the Queen City retreat that I attended in October. I fell completely off the WIPGO wagon for the rest of the year. I'm still thrilled, though with the number of pieces that I put some work into; especially the ones that I haven't touched in a while. The ornament board kept me happy with new starts, too. I'm going to follow the same plan again this year. Hopefully I'll manage my other stitching a bit better so I can complete my boards. 🪡👠
@CrossMyStitches17 күн бұрын
Wow, three boards!! Sounds like you were very disciplined a good part of the year so congrats on that! I find it hard to stick to plans and I am definitely a stitch what you want when you want to kind of girl. I also find that when I stitch on some projects, I will stick with them for days because I am enjoying them souch I don't want to stop. I am hoping that the board with all the pics will motivate me to work more on the project I have going and stop looking at new things to start 🙄🙄🙄. I will have to check out your videos and see all those new finishes. Thanks for visiting with me and Merry Christmas! Jacque
@stitchinginhighheels952917 күн бұрын
@CrossMyStitches I'm very much the same as you. I found that trying to get 4 stitching sessions on each wip that was called left me plenty of time to continue with it or to stitch on other things that called to me. I hope your board helps you!
