I like seeing the variety of projects that you’re doing now on your floss tubes. I am not a full coverage stitcher, but I do enjoy watching the progress people make working on them. You do such beautiful stitching that no matter what you choose I’ll still come back and watch. I am fascinated by the quantity of stitches. You can get done in a month. My hands and arms are handicapped so I have to accept I’m on the slow end. I don’t think my head‘s on board with my speed because I sure do a great job of purchasing cross stitch items!

Glad it is not just me who wants to start all the full coverage gigantic things. Red maple fairy is looking fantastic I am planning to go big on the full coverage goals with the challenges from FCF and haed sal. Aiming for 2.5% on most of them and 50% on my focus. Wipgo for all my smaller non fc projects so they get touched, minimal pressure but a nice change up from FC

Congrats on your finish! 🎉

Congratulations on your finish! Woo hoo!!! I love Karla Gerard’s artwork. I have one of her patterns I just need to start it. I’m going to do 25 in 25. I have 2 I know I will finish and just add another WIP once I finish one. I’m also going to “try” to finish a HAED next year. Key word…try. 😂

I was just looking at Stitches Sew Beautiful patterns this morning. It's like your video was a sign to buy some. Ha ha. I mean I need more full coverage for stitching to the moon, right? Absolutely not, but I can pretend that's a good reason. Your projects are stunning as always. Love love love watching you make progress.

It’s been fun to watch your episodes this year as you’ve shown great progress each time. You’ve just said you do well with two focus projects and then stitching what you want the rest of the time so I’d stick to that next year, but if you want to have the 2025 in there, maybe you need to do 2025 stitches in the random project you pick before you can go onto the next one?

I love Red Maple Fairy! Looking forward to seeing progress on her. I have plans to also join a Shoot for the Moon team in Full Coverage Fanatics. I have one project in particular on which I would like to make some good progress in 2025. Love your videos. 😘

I love Fall Fairy and everything you stitch!! ❤❤❤

I admire your progress every video. Red maple fairy looks so beautiful ❤ I am still debating about my plans for 2025. My biggest struggle is that my mom wants to make the entire family a cross stitch gift, wich we did since 2020. We are a family of 42, so almost all my stitching time (and the time of my mom and sister) go to that. But I do want to do something for me. And I was thinking os trying to bring my focus full coverage to 25 % this year, next to the christmas gifts with my mom.

My plans: full coverage HAED SAL - Jelly world. Fill coverage Unconventional x stitch - Hugin Munin. Finish my DMC thread colour stitch sample book. Finish Christmas Monsters SAL by Lola crow. finish moths over moon by tiny modernist. I also want to start a snake cross stitch and work on my blanket throw which has a Apothacary/curiosity cabinet theme.

Loved your video, as always. The 10,000 Lakes looks awesome. Will you be framing it or making it into a pillow or cushion? The Maple Fairy is humongous. She looks beautiful. I love your Knights project, but I realize that the lack of a variety of colors can make it tedious to stitch for a long period of time. Nevertheless, I do hope you can fit it into your stitching plans. I have 11 WIPs all of which are big and a few are full coverage. My plan is to devote 25 days per month to each WIP. They don't have to be consecutive but I really want to give 25 days to each because they've been yelling at me from the bedroom where I keep them. Perhaps I can finish one or two. We'll see. There will be a month left over for me to do my Xmas stitching so hopefully it will work out. Looking forward to your next video. 0:13

Congratulations on your Carolyn Manning finish! I love your channel and what you’re working on. My favorite is still Cookie! Can’t wait to see them framed. My only concern is that I see you from the chin up and your head is tilted up. It makes me feel so uncomfortable. Am I the only one?

Hi Hallie, it's great to see you back. Wonderful progress on your wips. I love your new starts. I'd love to see my favourite, The Wool Shop, back. I don't think you are going to copy me, I'm turning 55 next year so I'm starting 55 new things. Before you pass out, most of them are smalls, some medium and only about 10 large and only 1 full coverage.

Love that CM finish! I’m starting my first CM for New Year’s. I would love a vlogmas, maybe a little daily snippet uploaded once a week or just a couple of days a week? Happy stitching!

Congratulations on finishing 10,000 Lakes. I personally think it is one of CM's best designs. It looks mid century modern, to me. ❤❤❤ I love Red Maple Fairy, too. What do you plan on doing to fully finish her?

Congratulations on another finish! You’re on a roll. 2025. I promised myself I wasn’t going to make goals for myself next year. Yet, I’m tempted to have 25 WIPs for 2025. I only have 12, so that would be a boatload of new starts for me. Then I thought about getting 25,000 stitches into each of my full coverage WIPs. Then I gave up trying to make plans. 😀 Good luck making your decision.

Hi Hallie! Congrats on 10k Lakes - it looks awesome. I have the urge to do something special for 2025 as well. I already get over 25 page finishes a year. 25 new starts is too much for me. While I like all the FCF events, I'm leaning more towards non counting these days (except for stitching to the Moon of course!) just because it's harder for me to keep track of. I did most of the epic Journeys this year but then it got too hard for me to figure out which WIP to use for which journey depending on how much I planned on stitching for my goals. I stopped posting in By the Numbers too. Love your new starts!! - Kim H

Great that you checked out Victorian Santa, I love him! I am finishing few projects that are various parts of almost done. I have many projects lined up to start but not 25! That would drive me crazy!!!

Karla Gerard is my favorite 😉. Love the projects you’re working on. Stitches sew beautiful have great projects I put in my cart. Looking forward to seeing more😄

Congrats on the finish. Beautiful! I like the idea of 25,000/ month but not all in the same project. I couldn’t do it but hey😅.

😲 WOW!! Congratulations on your finish 🎉🎉. You continue to make great progress on your WIPS. I make plans but have difficulty executing the plan. I'm going to try and journey to the moon and back next year but nothing is concrete or etched in stone. I do sometimes try out other people's plans just still trying to find my sweet spot. 🥴 Patricia

Long time lurker saying hi 👋😅 Love your channel! Yeeey for flossmas! Vlogstyle is fun and it gives you the freedom to film when you can. I think 25000 sts in WIPs you want to finish in the next couple of years would be nice to do. (Maybe I should shoot for 2025 sts in each of my WIPs instead of the 1500 I was planning to do 🤔) I have a couple of things I'm doing next year... I'm keeping my family pieces as a monthly focus aka on the birthday of the recipient they each get attention. I continue doing WIPGO but instead of only doing my 25 focus pieces I did this year I'm using all my WIPs so I have 4 boards 😱🫣 Each WIP called for the month gets 1 day at the beginning of the month and the rest of the month I will be doing group prompts. Plus all my WIPs will get attention on their start date. Happy stitching! 🧵🪡

What about doing 2,050 stitches in each full coverage. I joined the HAED SAL, so that is going to be my top focus for 2025. I have a couple SALs that I will be doing also. I have been thinking about maybe picking one other project to focus on till it is done. I think that would give me a good variety to rotate each month. We will see.

Thank you for the video. Love your finish and all of your stitching.

Yes I vote for flossmas!! Even if it’s just one long video a week of combined footage.

Congrats on your beautiful finish! Love your progresses too. Maybe you can vlog daily and upload once a week? Love to watch the longer videos.

I love the new patterns you got from Glendon place!!! I actually have two started from her, poltergeist pirates and Halloween wishes, and two more I just got for my birthday….dont remember the names 😂 but one is owls on a branch and the other is a bunch of baby raccoons wearing pajamas in a tree 😍😍😂😂😂 also, wanna hear a fun fact? She’s local to me!! I never met her but we live like 20 minutes apart 😃😃

I've got Glendon Place's poltergeist pirates in my stash. Eggs a la around is beautiful too. Thanks for sharing and happy stitching 💜

Congratulations on your finish! It is beautiful! I always enjoy your updates. I liked hearing you talk about Glendon Place. I love her charts too! And all the bling. I also shop from her directly. She is so easy to work with. Thanks for sharing your new stash enhancements. I am off to do a bit of shopping. 😉 Happy Stitching!

Hey Hallie! Congrats on the great finish! Yes, GP charts are great, though I haven't sttiched with all the bling like you showed! Halloween afghan is awesome! - Kim H

Congratulations 🎉 on your finish! So excited to see a new start (maybe) in the future. I do love Glendon Place too! Love the bling. 💕, 💗, 💕 the Halloween blanket and you’re making great strides towards an eventual finish. Happy Stitching 🧵🪡

What size needle do you use with the silk lame.

Your stitch totals are amazing. I love your Quaker sampler. I'm glad you found the way to stitch it that gave you joy.

Hi Hallie, great video. Your Autumn Quaker is beautiful. Can't wait to see your progress on your new projects. The pictures really don't show the sparkle.

Hey girl, love your wips! Are you stitching the afghan from the paper pattern? or did you manage to get it into pattern keeper? I just started a stoney creek afghan (woodland wildlife), but it is not available as a pdf!! Any tips on how to get it in pattern keeper? I am using xodo, but it's not ideal!

I love seeing the Halloween Afghan by Stoney Creek. Such bright colors.❤❤ Congratulations on finishing Autumn Quaker. It is lovely. I love your new patterns, especially Tulipa. It is going to be stunning. I have her Turkey pattern, but it is not kitted up yet, because I am stitching another big turkey right now, from Imaginating. 😊

Congratulations on your finishes. I love Glendon Place and have several of them in my stash, you may have enabled me to purchase one or two😊

Congrats pm you finish. Rosewood manor piece are beautiful. Love, love your Glendon Place purchases. My favorite by Glendon Place is Frankie the Thinker which I pull out every October and feature on my videos.

Thank you for the video. I love your finish and you work. It is fun to see all that you bought to stitch, a lot of work, or fun for later.

Love your finish.I am working on a Glendon Place pattern Toil and Trouble. almost ready to start beading. I also have about 4 other to start.

So glad you found a way to enjoy working on Fall Quakers because it turned out beautiful. I like doing quaker designs because each quaker feels like a small finish 😊. Have fall and winter quakers kitted up and will probably start winter soon

All parades are great to watch - WIPs, stash by designer, under the bed box, kitted, whatever! ⚘️

Hi Hallie. Congratulations on your llama and gnome finishes! I'm working on Lizzie Kate's Christmas Rules. ⚘️

Always watch you on tv, finally subscribed; your stitching is excellent; thanks for sharing the process of "Cookie Fairy" - totally love it and didn't realize the post stitching care too. Awesome.

⚘️

⚘️

Thanks for sharing! 😘

I love how you divided the pieces you wanted to finish this year into 10 or 11 parts instead of 12. Setting yourself up for success! Happy stitching 💜

For ironing metallics, I lower the temperature and do faster passes. You could also put a piece of cotton or linen fabric between the iron & metallics. So far nothing has melted and no beads have gotten crushed.
