It's amazing to see your full coverage pieces. I love them! I am working on 2, but I am very slow at it. I'm glad I found you and can't wait to see more.

[@thenuttynerdyneedle]

Welcome to flosstube, your patterns are amazing, can't wait to see the progress ☺️

[@CathyBeukes-gt7qx]

Loved watching your video ❤ beautiful projects😊

[@Davesgirl-hn3cm]

What a wonderful 1st flosstube, I love full coverage and mainly stitch on 25/28 1 over 1 to make the projects smaller. Your projects are beautiful, and your progress is impressive……thank you for sharing with us!!

[@angiefittro8372]

Wow! Beautiful! I love the bunny in the Christmas project and really look forward to the one with the fox. You need a light facing you so that your projects may be seen better; it does not have to be a ring light, but a true color light would be best.

[@maxcolourstitcher]

@@angiefittro8372 thank you. Yes I am trying to work out a better way to film, my phone was better light but then it was too big to upload. Lots to learn.

[@jodeewalker6536]

Anne....Im so glad i ran across your Very 1st Flosstube. You did Amazing and are a Natural at this!! Really loved seeing ALL your Amazing wips and progress on them and already looking forward to your next flosstube. I subscribed and rang that bell 🔔 so i wont miss your flosstubes from now on. Happy stitching, JoDee 🥰

[@stitching_geri]

Great job on your first flosstube! I love full coverage so I really enjoyed seeing all of your projects 💗

[@krissa1911]

Great projects. Welcome to flosstube.

[@maggielouxstitches]

I too love finding a fellow Aussie flosstuber 👋🏼🎉 Your projects are nothing short of amazing and I love how many have cats! Do you have cats too? Great to meet you :))) xxx

[@MsRaineyroo]

I also have a preference for max colour, and admit I am envious of your projects and progress 😊 I’ve subscribed and can’t wait to see how you get on with these.

[@lukeb.perrett8036]

Great video. I'd love to see how you store and manage your floss. I am currently setting up for a new start, Home in the mountains by Golden Kite and it requires 120 colours and 80 blends.

[@maxcolourstitcher]

@@lukeb.perrett8036 thank you. I have all my floss on floss drops and have them hanging from a clothes rack. I will try and show next video.

[@TheNutmegStitcher]

Wow! I'd love to hear how you stitch those.

[@sherryechols2944]

Amazing projects really enjoyed your video

[@ninja.stitcha]

Thanks for the video - it was lovely to see all your projects. I was quite taken with the Paine Free Crafts fairy! 🧚

[@patgoodchild8045]

Fabulous stitching. You sound like me…..always use a scroll frame and park when necessary! Have been stitching a HAED for four years, just the one as I hope I live long enough to finish it!!

[@lindajohnson3836]

Welcome to FlossTube! Enjoyed your first video! You have some amazing designs! I look forward to seeing your progress. Fantastic stitching!

[@KathyCrawford-s7f]

Beautiful projects. I look forward to watching you progress. I also stitch on 22 ct fabric but i use 2 strands. I will always choose max color too. If one is going to stitch a massive project you might as well go all in and do max color. The difference is definitely worth the effort in my opinion. Great first floss tube.

[@gwencallahan6061]

Beautiful projects! I look forward to future videos and how you decide what wip to work on next.

[@eleniroberts7812]

I love all of your projects. Can't wait to see your progress ❤

[@Stitchinmortician]

Beautiful stitches! Please do a finished parade someday!!

[@JanetDoucette]

I am stitching on Queen of Nature as well! I started in the middle which is the woman. I am not stitching the whole thing... I'm going to work down to the bottom & stitch to the edge of the dress then work my way to the top... I don't see a reason to stitch that whole background!!! I look forward to seeing your progress!!!

[@bittenbythestitchybugg]

So glad I've come across your channel! I also love and stitch almost entirely full coverage.

[@pattimiller421]

Hello Anne. That was a very nice visit. I hope you'll continue to share your stitching with us. I like full coverage stitching also. Do you have a favorite full coverage company, HAED, Charting Creations, etc.?

[@maxcolourstitcher]

I don’t have a favourite, I just buy from whoever has the artwork that I like.

[@Liliane-C]

Great projets! Looking forward to seeing your progress on them. I'm curisous, what stand to you use with your Omanik frames?

[@maxcolourstitcher]

@@Liliane-C I use the Gus deluxe stand. You can find them on Facebook called ‘Gus custom creations’.

[@Liliane-C]

Thanks I’ll check them out.

[@mylissahq4602]

It’s so nice to come across a new Australian flosstuber ☺️ I love your projects too! I’ve heard 22 count is great for 1 over 1, where do you get large enough pieces from?

[@maxcolourstitcher]

@@mylissahq4602 I buy it online from various Australian needlework shops. Sew it all have a great variety of colours.

[@claraarellano1867]

Love love love that you are solely a full coverage stitcher. Your WIPs are amazing! Is it Zweigart 22 count fabric that you stitch on? Also I noticed you used some sort of tape to prevent fabric from slippage on your Omanik scroll frames? What a great idea! What kind of tape is strong enough to stick and use and does it damage the wood on the rods? Looking forward to seeing more of your videos plus all your progress.

[@maxcolourstitcher]

@@claraarellano1867 I prefer to stitch on 22 count Oslo. The Zweigart 22 count (Sulta) is very stiff and I prefer a softer fabric to stitch on (like evenweave). I just use masking tape as I find when I try and put the rods through the frame, the fabric goes crooked. So it’s more for when I first put the fabric on the rods but I just keep it there.

[@claraarellano1867]

@ Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my questions. I will go look to see if I can find 22 Oslo here in the US. Good idea on using masking tape. Enjoyed watching your 2nd video as well. Take care!

[@harleyriderstitcher3951]

Well done! May i suggest you roll your projects in the opposite direction so that the backside of your fabric is what you touch not your project. It keeps the oils on your skin from depositing on your piece.

[@KzG-mn1nx]

Where do you get those massive scroll frames from! I'm starting a few large full coverage but am struggling to find a frame I can use. I'm also in Aus

[@maxcolourstitcher]

They are Omanik frames. I have bought some direct from the Omanik factory and some from the Thread Collective who are based in Australia

[@janellemcleod3406]

Great work. I’m in Qld Australia as well. I have followed you. I love watching ausssie floss tubers.

[@jackiturner9228]

Hi, welcome to flosstube. I have questions; do you put your frames on a stand or hold in your lap? What frames do you use? How much stitching do you do in a day? Just 1 suggestion when you hold the project in front of your face I can’t hear what you’re saying.

[@maxcolourstitcher]

@@jackiturner9228 thank you. I have a Gus creation stand and Omanik frames. I put a photo of my stitching setup in my second video. I do at least 600 stitches per day and more on the weekends. Thank you for the suggestion, I realized that after I have recorded and watched it back.

[@RejeanneCote-f8e]

Where did you get your frames?, or did you have them made?

[@maxcolourstitcher]

They are Omanik frames. You can buy direct from the Omanik factory or they may be a reseller in your country.
