2025 Plans: 25 New Starts in 2025, BAPS, & Organization

[@PeacockStitcher]

😂 Allison’s “ I know your children” comment, that is an Aunt statement if I’ve ever heard one ❤

[@StitchStitchBead]

"One start, one WIP, twelve finishes." Damn straight! 😂 And I love your idea to do a Hawk Run in six months! I've had my eye on Village of HRH and might finally have to buy the chart and kit it up. And yes, when you finish a big piece like that, it's a wonderful feeling! Nice picks for 2025, ladies! 😊

[@barbararice4115]

Glad to see you both together. Ya know Stephanie, some Flosstube folks don't post EVERY week. Don't beat yourself up if either of you need time off.... We'll still find you!! Glad to hear your plans. Mine are very simple- keep breathing and stitching...on anything! As I just love stitching (on Aida) , I stitch and keep in mind for whom that particular piece is going to. In all my many years, I have never kept a piece for me--+ they've all been gifts for others. And so my family is shook because I am currently stitching the 12 Days of Christmas for...MYSELF! on 11 CT, it's going to be huge...but I love it. And I'm going to use Allison 's idea of using the stretcher bars once I finish. Wish me luck!!😅

[@Mercierfam72]

Love your excitement with your plans. Just remember you can change your plans if the joy is not there.

[@stitchedlitbc]

Allison's face reacting to your plans is cracking me up! I will pick up my Village of HRH and stitch with you, Stephanie!

[@BlackCoffeeandGrits]

🤣🤣🤣 Allison’s face is cracking me up! I’m dying over here. Get it Stephanie!!

I'm also working on Cinderella and Snow White, but both are the big kits. I am using different fabric but a mix of floss. If you want a stitchy buddy for those projects, let me know. I love your plans. I'd rather have more to do and make changes as I go than not know what to work on next. I have a minimum of 2 - 3 starts each month next year as well as working on my current wips. I still need to figure out the logistics of it but, I'm pretty much overachieving. Who knows, I may even throw my plans to the wind and return to monogamous stitching. My biggest plan for the year is to do the HAED Sal and finish it by the deadline. I can't wait to see what you guys do with your floss. I too am slowly trying to convert to a master set. It was great seeing you at the Jingle Ball. I would have said hi but you looked like your hands were full.

[@lisariva9432]

I love hearing these ambitious plans! As a stitcher who has absolutely no plans (except when stitching a gift for someone), I totally respect it and love hearing how you think about different types of goals for different types of projects. Also, I love Allison's shirt!

[@patriciabrown5524]

📆 I don’t make plans because something always happens & I have to change them I’m retired now so I can stitch when & for however long I want! Absolute bliss! Don’t have any young kids that need my attention I Hope you manage to do most of what you planned, and that you enjoy the stitching

[@angelacraig7973]

Our internet is out today but you saved me. I’m listening while I stuff bags with dental supplies for a Christmas project.

[@anastasia_six]

Such fun plans! My 2 big project plans for 2025 are to finish Deadly Aquarium, and start Mirabilia Sleeping Princess. I highly recommend the Bisley floss cabinet! It's pricey, but I've saved so much time and frustration (not to mention bad language) hunting down floss!!

[@TurnbullsThreads]

Lol! Talk about ambitious! Good luck with your plans and I look forward to seeing your WIP parade

[@amandaallen8945]

I have my floss organized in a Bisley, with those slots to hold your bobbins, and then i bought gwstitchinco floss drop bobbins. It’s my perfect setup:l. Y’all have gotten me thinking about the Mira Cinderella and I might have to do her in matching fabric for my in progress sleeping beauty. I prob won’t start Cinderella until sleeping beauty is done tho. My next starts are Ophelia and Juliette from Mira. I’m starting both on Christmas.

[@patbrown4435]

I love hearing your plans - thank you for sharing! 🗓

[@thepaintedowl144]

Love your t-shirt Allison!

[@helend.flosstube]

Loved hearing your plans! I know i would fall off that wagon in a matter of weeks! 😂

[@robinselby1]

Love you ladies and I’m dying inside over Allison’s expressions on her face😊 you have some big plans Stephanie and I wish you the very best, the Chaterlaine and Mira’s alone would take me a few years! Blessings to you both!

[@loftymakes]

I’d totally recommend a Bisley cabinet DMC collection, I love mine and most of my WIPs are DMC or some DMC. I love that I can start things straight away and not have to wait ages to get the floss. I just need to build up my fabric stash! 💗

[@raggedygene1770]

Love the choices from both of you!!

[@NicM2375]

Loved watching your plans for next year. I am 50 next year so to celebrate I'm having 50 new starts (by the way I already have over 180 WIPs!) I know I'm a bit crazy but you only live once right.

[@therunnerstitcher]

this will be fun! you can totally do it if you just stick with it!

[@CarolAttrux]

Love listening to your plans! Thank you for all of your flosstube videos! Your tutorials and freebie recommendations are the best! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you! 🎄🪡😀

[@marroomydesigns]

Grand plans for 2025 I love that cinnamon garden pattern so much. I also am looking forward to the 2025 stitch 4 pride. It will be fun 🤩

[@jaxcreativeinspirations]

🗓📆 Oh my gosh where would I start?!? I tried to do 24 in 24, and it went sideways in January! 🤣😂🤣😂 I have so many kitted projects I am leaning toward doing several that were multi-part SAL's and working on the WIP pile. I am going to do "stitch from stash". Notice I did NOT say "no buy". It will be buying with more intention, rather than jumping on the bandwagon or "collecting for the collection". I'm going to be doing a video soon going through the kitted projects and discussing where I'm starting to "thin the herd", so to speak... loved listening to you ladies chat and list out your goals, I was working on a stitchy kindness for a friend and then sorting through some things to declutter... fun times! See you soon!!!

[@leighanneh1973]

I just started Yule Goddess and I LOVE it!

[@joyceliebe2364]

I love watching you both, all the lovely projects, & enjoy the differences in your stitching approach❤. I am more like Allison. My 2 “boys” are adults & I’m blessed to have 4 grandsons. Knowing all life entails, Stephanie, I cannot imagine how you could have enough time to do half of what you’ve planned. Especially with all the time Flosstubes take. Obviously you have a different mindset because I’m stressed thinking about all that 😂. But good for you to be optimistic 🤩 - I hope you achieve many goals.

[@clipperrn]

I enjoyed the video so much ladies. Can't wait to see the wip parade.

[@LollypopStitches]

Dannnnng Stephanie those are some goals 😂😂

[@Janstiffstitches]

Wow! Ambitious but it’s a plan. And you both are very agreeable that plans can be changed/modified. Love watching you both! 📆

[@tracibrookes894]

Wow. My head is spinning listening to your plans Stephanie. I am fascinated with the way you are thinking through these goals. Curious if you tracked how many stitches a day you did this year to help you determine a number of stitches/day? (I have never counted stitches so I am curious about those who do).

[@TessLynnxo]

Hi Girlies I have been eyeing Annie Beez 12 days of xmas myself. The last thing I need is another new start but not sure if I can resist🤦🏻‍♀️ I don’t have the pattern in front of me, but Im thinking of a red and pink palette. What are both of your thoughts? “Are you ready for my rotations?” “Do I have to keep a straight face?😂😂 I love that you have big goals💕 You don’t want to start a large one again? Good luck with that😂 Does that mean you dont want “Queen of Freedom” when Im done? 😂 Good luck with your goals and looking forward to seeing your progress 🗓💕

[@jguldy]

📆New subscriber here! Loved hearing about your 2025 plans. Got my gears moving... Since I'm new to your channel, I have questions. What geographic location are you? And what Fair do you enter your stitching into? I'll be a regular watcher - I love seeing everyone's plans and set-ups and what they are working on.

[@jensfiberweb]

Why do I want to make a million specific plans now? I absolutely want to copy Jingle Ball Baubles wipgo. And I want to start Huckleberry Farm (and every other chart I have by The Blue Flower 😇). But not really. But maybe. 📆

[@MorvantMade]

For your murder Sal, the bakers wife one by Mirabilia you can rechart her clothing to a black dress and let her hold a bloody heart. EPIC!

[@tarafurnas861]

[@amy.k.graham]

🗓️ Ooo, this was a good one! It makes me excited for my own stitching for next year. I already have some starts planned, but I really need to focus on some of my WIPs too. The moon phase bell pull has been so fun to work on and it’s just gorgeous. I’m going to pull mine back out again next week. 🌘 And note to self: don’t try to compete with Hawkrun Hollow! 😆 That will be a winner for sure!

[@Sa.Rita91]

I joined the Stitch4Pride this year as well! Will be my first time. I am considering changing the threads to Pirate+Robin and Night Stalkers Calling threads 🤔 Can't wait to see your progress for Princess Birthday SAL 😁 🗓

[@DeeAZstitcher]

I have Oct 31 by CGS kitted, not ready to stitch that big crow & pumpkin every time I look at it, I say I can't right now. I love "mindless" fill-in stitches for those nights when the brain needs a break. My WIPGO board will only have 5 Large projects on it & 5 smalls. I'm also limiting my self to 1 SAL, as my WIPS are out of control. I don't count my stitches that would bum me out. Hope to get FFOs done next yr. 🗓📑

[@Kellyschacht]

Wow, talk about ambitious!!!! You go for it Stephanie!! Allison, I am with you, my brain cannot handle all those projects at once. 🗓️

[@angelacraig7973]

Our internet is out today but you saved me. I’m listening while I stuff bags with dental supplies for a Christmas project.
