What a great hubby for getting you a new tablet! And what great friends to help you mark your patterns! I thought you were going to say you had to rebuy them…. Whew! It wasn’t that! You had GREAT progress this month! YAY 🎉 See you next time!

[@SmallTownStitches]

Thank you! 😊

[@StitchinMommy]

I finally took the time today to save all my PK progress - probably over 50 charts! 😅 Thanks for the PSA, but I’m sad you had to deal with the negative consequences first hand.

[@SmallTownStitches]

Oh my gosh! Yes learn from my mistake! I’m so glad you backed yours up!

[@AdventuresOfStitching]

You just made my time on Tiger just fly by! 😍 I just love how you share about everything 🤗 The interview with Becca was awesome and the 🎈 cracked me up! 😂 I think you should start the Ring in May too 🤣🤩 What better time than when we are marathoning the books again?! ❤ So much more to say so little brain power to remember it all 😝 Luv ya! 😘

[@SmallTownStitches]

I still don’t know how those balloons got there. No one touched anything! I think I am going to start it in May. Why not 😂😂🫣🫣

[@AdventuresOfStitching]

@@SmallTownStitches 😂😂 it had something to do with your hands but they didn’t look THAT happy to me 🤪 and hooray for that start news!! 🤩🫶🏼

[@mrsmiggins6435]

Great video. Just subscribed, I must apologise for being ignorant that you a long time flosstuber. I began watching when I was unable to work in 2017 and have never come across you before😞. I love everything you showed today! It was lovely to hear your hubby got you another tablet(a keeper by the sound of it😃). Looking forward to seeing your next video. Stay safe🤗🇬🇧

[@SmallTownStitches]

Oh my gosh don’t feel like that. The Flosstube community has grown so much since I had started in 2015!

[@stitchingbytheshore]

[@coisadevobordados]

Omg! I literally pause the video to export my projects on PK! So sorry u had to go through that, but thanks God for ur husband and friends! Love ur projects, especially the Lotr and HP ones, since I'm also a Lotr and HP nerd! Have a nice may, and happy stitching!

[@SmallTownStitches]

I’m so so glad you exported your progress! I hope no one ever has to go through what I did! LOTR and HP nerds unite!!!

[@MandyParker]

Great to see an update. Great job hitting all the goals.

[@SmallTownStitches]

Thank you!

[@jdmcmarke]

Another great flosstube! It’s so heartwarming to hear that your friends were there to lend a hand, what a wonderful community😍

[@SmallTownStitches]

Thank you so much! They blessed me for sure!

[@LidiasLeisurelyStitching]

Lots of great progress! It's so nice that you have stitchy friends to help you work through your pattern keeper issue! Happy stitching 💜

[@SmallTownStitches]

Thank you! You too!

[@threadtheneedle]

So much progress!! So sorry you had to deal with a dead tablet. Really glad you have wonderful stitching friends who could help you.Glad you were able to salvage most of your progress. Oh I need to go check out your interview!!

[@SmallTownStitches]

Such a giant pain that’s for sure!

[@MamabearStitchery]

The T-rex looks absolutely amazing!!

[@SmallTownStitches]

Thank you!!!

[@acfcreations640]

I've been there and I can understand your despair! My less-than-one-year-old tablet completely died on me and I had no backup of any of my patterns... Luckily, I got a replacement as the warranty was still valid. From that point on, I always save export a backup of my progress whenever I am done stitching for the day and save it on my Google drive. It's only a couple of seconds and it can save you from A LOT of pain!

[@SmallTownStitches]

Absolutely. I’m so sorry you had to go through that! Technology is good when it works lol

[@Busymomstitcher]

Loved see your projects. :) ❤

[@SmallTownStitches]

Thank you! 😊

[@stitchingaddicted]

Fantastic progress. Your wips look amazing. Especially Seavillians and Dino. I love seeing them from the distance it shows them at their best. So sorry to hear about your tablet. Talk about amazing coincidence. Yesterday my tablet was playing up. I have a kindle fire for pattern keeper. It was doing funny things. First thing I did was back all my patterns up. I deleted a few and it was happier. I worked on one for the day backed it up but it was still zooming in and out when I hadn’t touched it. I did buy another tablet. As I think it is on its last legs. I’m going to do a factory reset on it and just use it to watch KZbin from now on. Don’t trust it to use for pattern keeper. I have Halloween nights. I really need to start it. I have it kitted. Yours is amazing. Just as well it isn’t a retired chart since you needed to rebuy the pattern . Hugs 🤗 Tania.

[@SmallTownStitches]

I am so glad you instantly backed your charts up!!!! I am so glad you have started Halloween night too! Maybe it will inspire me to get mine out 😂

[@nikkistitchy]

Wow you did a lot! Come stitch mine too please 😂 those kindles I swear and I bought another one 😂 it was only 100 I wanted a Samsung but I promise when this goes I will 😂. Thanks for keeping me company as I stitch and wait for my car oil change ❤

[@SmallTownStitches]

Aww I’m glad I could keep you company. I’m sure looking back now if someone recorded me it would have been comical then not so much!!!!

[@lindaklinedinst9236]

I am glad that you got a New Tablet. I do not keep any of my Patterns on my Tablet - just my Desk Top Computer. I print out my Charts. This way I have them. I do not use Pattern Keeper or Mark Up XP. I prefer to mark off my Stitches on Paper Working Copy. Love all of your WIPS - you are making great progress on them. Glad that your family is doing well. Take Care & Happy Stitching ❤️🤗🙏🧵🦯🧵☕️❤️

[@SmallTownStitches]

You are a super hero for doing all them on paper! I did before pattern keeper and I know I could do it again but I feel I would make a lot of mistakes with the full coverage

[@lindaklinedinst9236]

@@SmallTownStitches - I have not made a mistake yet by marking off my stitches on Paper.

[@dontrunwithscissors9802]

lovely to see all your projects. the tablet thing is one of my biggest fears

[@SmallTownStitches]

It’s a big one. Technology is great when it decides it wants to work

[@yvonnevigil7489]

So nice to see you Leah . Great progress on your works. Wanting to know when T Rex is done are you framing it or something else. Take care dear❤

[@SmallTownStitches]

I will be framing Trex when it is done for her room :)

[@lindaromar2824]

I recently found your channel and love your projects. Can you explain to me why you sometimes use dyed fabrics on a full coverage piece? I’m sorry your tablet died and I’m glad you and your “team” were able to get you going again in a timely manner. 😅 back up.

[@SmallTownStitches]

Welcome!! I sure can. Sometimes I do it so I have something fun to look at while I stitch because they take forever and sometimes I will grab it because I had it on hand already. :)

[@karenpellien9360]

I am so enjoying your channel. Your work is amazing! I don’t stitch full coverage but really enjoy watching & listening to you. Your progress is great on all those pieces. Thanks for sharing. Are your CXC cotton or polyester? I have seen it both ways & have never used polyester before. Your interview was great! And I have to say I love your message at the end. I worked in MH for 19 yrs & totally believe your message ❤️

[@SmallTownStitches]

I’m honestly not 100% sure if they are cotton or polyester. I just know I love the coverage and the price point 😂 Thank you! I have gone through periods where I struggled with it so just trying to be a help in anyway.

[@ninahobbysite]

Terrible story of pattern keeper. I try to export after every 1000 stitches. But this a very good warning for me. Great progress on your beautiful projects. Happy stitching

[@SmallTownStitches]

That’s a great idea! Yes I had to learn the hard way

[@stitchyreispeices]

Ohhh I'm so glad I just found your channel! Love your projects! I'm only a little bit into this video so I will have to keep watching but I'm so distracted by your shirt. 🤣 Is that a roots and refuge shirt?!?!!

[@SmallTownStitches]

Hahahahaha yes it is!!! And welcome!!!!!

[@stitchyreispeices]

Lol! I love Jess!! That's awesome. Are you into homesteading or gardening also then?

[@stitchinginhighheels9529]

I learned a very hard lesson about saving and backing up files at a previous job - before we had laptops and the only computers were desktops that relied on being plugged in. (I think I just aged myself there lol) I had worked for HOURS on a project, and hadn't saved it.. and then the power went out!! Every once in a while I get a bit lazy about backing up or saving files and it always seems to bite me.. so I feel your pain! 🪡👠

[@SmallTownStitches]

I was always worried about losing my stuff in school but couldn’t be bothered to stop stitching lol
