Welcome to my July 2023 monthly cross stitching Update!
In this episode I continue working on Haunted Cottage by Mill Hill from last month. Then, for the 4th of July, I have a new start on a Dimensions kit called Singin' The Wash Line Blues (out of print) (2007) Thanks for watching!

I love all your Cross stage projects, especially this one with the quilt. Beautiful, can't wait to see it all done.

[@calico_whimsy]

Thank you!!

[@StitchedinPeace]

I am so glad you got back to pattern with birds! Don't get me wrong, I enjoy watching bead or felt ones, or any kind to be exact😂 but I found a passion for birds just because of you. Your uniqueness is birds everythere and it inspired me to watch birds, to listen more for their songs and even to stitch them - never thought I would do that! My stitchy tastes have changed because of you 😅 thank you!

[@calico_whimsy]

Your comment made me so happy! Knowing that you found a love of birds from watching my channel just made my day! Happy stitching and happy birding!! 🐦🐦

[@StitchinMommy]

Very cute new chickadee project! I second your husband’s vote to keep going on it. 😁

[@calico_whimsy]

Thanks Sarah! I just might go a little longer on it while I'm still loving it!

[@marika.stitches]

I so love the Singin' The Washline blues! And I had loads of fun stitching on the haunted cottage :) Thank you for your inspirations!

[@calico_whimsy]

Thanks Marika! You inspire me right back with your speedy stitching!!

[@artfulstitchery]

The Mill Hill kit is really cute, but the Dimensions one is stunning, and what great progress you have made. Thanks for sharing, and happy stitching!

[@calico_whimsy]

Thank you! I knew you would love that one when you saw it :)

[@cindy_lou_loves_to_stitch]

Oh is that haunted house cool with the glow in the dark beads!! 💜 The other pattern is very cute, too! I love new starts too! 😊🌞

[@calico_whimsy]

Thanks! It was so fun 🎃🎃

[@jacquelinefavero4329]

Hi Christine, always look forward to the first of the month when you post your stitching vlogs. You always do such fun and beautiful projects. I fell in love with the Haunted Cottage last month when you showed it, but I spent the whole month convincing myself I didnt need another project.... Then I see it on your finish 😮, but I was staying strong.... Then you show it in the dark and well a month of will power went right down the drain😂😂😂. I absolutely love it!!!!

[@calico_whimsy]

LOL, the glow in the dark beads are always irresistible, aren't they? :)

[@jacquestedcooper]

Thanks for finishing the Mill Hill Haunted Cottage. It turned out so cute! I was waiting to see how yours turned out before I ordered it. The chickadee Dimensions kit is so darn cute! I love those chunky birds. Have a great August.

[@calico_whimsy]

I'm so glad I was able to get a finish for you! I highly recommend it :) Happy Stitching!

[@zebstitches]

LOVE the Haunted House finish, the glow in the dark beads are just perfect! Also thank you for putting me onto the Dimensions Kits lady :) She has a MASSIVE list for me and we're going to be doing monthly payments. GULP! You won in the "Whose the person that made Zeb spend the MOSTEST" lol

[@calico_whimsy]

🤣🤣🤣 I'm so happy to hear our "dealer" is finding good homes for all her stash!!! I'm sure I made at least one of her house payments 🤭

[@LuciafromPT]

Another wonderful video! I was so happy when I saw your notification in the morning, I watched it with a good cup of coffee. I would love to see a mid year parade, with all your WIPs and finishes, for cross stitch and felt 🥰 Stay safe and happy! A big hug from Portugal!

[@calico_whimsy]

I'm always happy to keep you company with your good cup of coffee! Good way to start the day! Happy stitching!

[@LuciafromPT]

@@calico_whimsy Oh thank you so much! Your reply just caught me stitching some christmas ornaments and watching your Flosstube #57 haha made me laugh a bit! Have a nice day.

[@calico_whimsy]

@@LuciafromPT lol, going back into the archives 👏👏

[@lynncordova8169]

Your Mill Hill is adorable, but I absolutely love the bird on the quilt. I wouldn't be able to put it away!

[@calico_whimsy]

Thank you! I'm actually working on it right now ❤️❤️❤️

[@rebeccachapman1231]

I think your channel is my favorite of all the floss tubes! I do hope you continue with the chickadees as I just LOVE them! There is another KZbin channel I'm subscribed to called Lesley the Bird Nerd and she talks about different birds, but also has a chickadee friend that lives near her that she's named Inky that she'll make videos about occasionally. I just love those little birds.

[@calico_whimsy]

Awww, thank you so much! I'm still working on the Chickadees! I'll check out the channel you mentioned 😊 sounds like something I'd enjoy ❤️ Happy stitching🐦

[@shescraftin2126]

A D O R A B L E! These are so stinking cute! My husband always gives me a hard time about putting my WIPS away. 🤣

[@calico_whimsy]

Thank you!! I guess we should be grateful that our husbands care about our projects 😊 I hope you are doing well! Have you been crafting?

[@sharonmarie66]

Beautiful dimensions kit, the coverage looks fine to me. Congratulations to your son 👏🏻 I love the millhill too, I’m going to start a new one this week 😀 Thanks for sharing, looking forward to seeing your next video x

[@calico_whimsy]

ooooh, a new start! I'll have to keep an eye on your IG :)

LOVE those chickadees looked for the kit but couldn't find it anywhere. That haunted house is awesome., the glow in the dark beads are so cool. Happy Stitching Patty

[@calico_whimsy]

Thank you Patty! There are a couple of listings for that kit on US eBay right now 😊

[@mkimduong]

I have never seen this dimensions kit with the chickadees before either. It is looking so good. Still hope that you have time to film your update dimension kits collection soon. 😂

[@calico_whimsy]

Thank you! I will have that dimensions parade before the end of the year! That's my goal, lol!

[@jennuhxstitches3729]

That Dimensions kit is so beautiful! The little bird... oh my. Just love it! I love love love Dimensions kits but afraid if I contact that lady it will be a dangerous rabbit hole for both me and my Mom haha. Happy Stitching! Looking forward to August.

[@calico_whimsy]

Ah yes, Elisabeth is wonderful and dangerous person to know, lol!

[@SherrysStitchingNook]

Beautiful projects! I can't wait to see what you start next. Have a great August!

[@calico_whimsy]

Thank you!! I hope you are able to get some stitching done, too ☺️

[@e.keesey]

Gosh, I missed this. I've seen the felt videos but missed this one. I love, love chickadees. They have been my favorite bird since I was a little girl. Too bad it's out of print. 😢

[@calico_whimsy]

I'm glad you found the video! I've been kinda going crazy uploading videos lately....hard to keep track of them 🤣🤣 I see this kit show up on eBay quite often, but sometimes it's a bit pricey 😢

[@e.keesey]

@calico_whimsy there's one on the bay of evil but the price is crazy. Nope, not paying that much. If it's meant to be, it will come my way someday in a more reasonable way. Que sera, sera. (Can you hear Doris Day singing?)

[@MissJernberg]

I love your mill hill finish I need to see were I can get that 😍 You did get som great progress on your Dimensions kit! It looks amazing! Take care and happy stitching!!

[@calico_whimsy]

Thank you! They are both fun stitches!

[@BernStitches]

I love love love your Dimensions new start!!! You also stitched on it super fast. I've never stitched a Mill Hill Kit before, but you're definitely making me curious, especially the glow in the dark beads. I got more kits from our lady 🤣

[@calico_whimsy]

Ok, you NEED to stitch a Mill Hill...at least try a small one! Oh! More kits!?!?

What a fantastic update! I was hoping you wouldn't finish the quilt (Wash day Blues) before the end of the vlog or I was going to feel very ashamed of my orcas progress :'D

[@calico_whimsy]

🤣🤣🤣 I don't think the 2 can even be compared !

[@tammys8547]

Do you leave your fabric in the hoop after you’re finished stitching for the day?

[@calico_whimsy]

Yes, I only take it when I'm going to put it away for a while 😊

Can you please share the contact name for the lady with the kits Thanks

Sure, her contact info on Facebook is facebook.com/evonhahn?mibextid=ZbWKwL Let me know if you get this because KZbin sometimes suppresses links
