Thank you! ❤️ Happy stitching!

Hi Kim. Thank you for the update 😊. Congratulations on 3000 subscribers! Your stats are great (touch wood) and 3 potential finishes for the year! Woohoo! ⚘️

[@msufly]

Thanks Margaret! 3 finishes sound good to me!

[@mildredalayon7095]

Thanks for explaining the "sideways" stitching. It took me a little to understand, but I finally got it. Thanks! 😊

[@msufly]

Glad you understood!

[@CornhuskerStateStitchers]

Glad the job is working out! Great visiting with you again thru flosstube. Hang in there! Hope you have an amazing birthday! Terri

[@msufly]

Thanks Terri! Happy stitching!

Lots of great progress (as always)! Glad to hear that the job is settling in. That little table from Amazon looks really handy. I might have to get one of those for the camper. :-) I think I'd have a hot mess on my hands if I tried to stitch something sideways ... well I might start out ok, but then the next time I picked it up I'd probably make a mess of it. Congrats on 3,000 subscribers. Enjoy this nice weather we've been having (crossing my fingers that winter really is gone, but I figure we're probably in for one more good snow storm ...)

[@msufly]

Thanks Katrina! Yeah, the bed table is useful for more than just stitching too! Yesterday's temp was so nice!! But I agree, we probably have 1 more good snow coming. Happy stitching!

[@MandyParker]

Kindred Spirits is looking so good! That’s exciting to hear the oldest non FC finish will be achievable sooner than you may have thought.

[@msufly]

Thanks Mandy! I'm excited to knock out two old WIPs this year. Kindred Spirits will be my oldest WIP after Friends Forever is done but clearly KS has a ton left to do.

[@karinmonnich3310]

Love your progress on your wips. Happy stitching!

[@msufly]

Thanks!

[@ninahobbysite]

Beautiful new start. Great progress. I don't stitch with a lot of fancy stuff. My favorite wooden hoop is from my husband greatmother. Very old, but its more thick and great tension. Happy stitching

[@msufly]

Thanks Nina! I love using old stuff that I already have, and sometimes they don't make the new stuff quite as well!

[@debbybrandenburger2598]

You made some awesome progress in February! Good to hear the new job is going well.

[@msufly]

Thanks Debby! ❤️

[@alexandramerrett1623]

Thanks for the vid (and congrats on 3000 subs). I loved seeing your Templar Prophecy - I’m also doing it, and our progress is almost exactly inverted. I’ve done the bits you haven’t and vice versa. You must be using a lot of brain cells to manage the colour changes and the negative/positive bits. Impressive!

[@msufly]

Thanks Alexandra! So between us, we have Templar done eh? 😄 I feel like I'm flying by the seat of my pants with the changes on it...just trying stuff out.

[@susanmarit5365]

Forgot to tell you HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🎉🥳🎉

[@paulettecurt-costa8902]

Great progress! Love the blues you choose! Have a happy birthday! See you in April ❤

[@msufly]

Thanks Paulette!! ❤️

[@stitchingatthecabin]

Stitching in bed sounds amazing. I've done it in a hotel before. I like the stand from Amazon for that. I have Keto on a Lowery stand on one side and the arm of the chair on the other. It works well now, but when I get further over on her, it doesn't fit quite as well. Congrats on 3k!

[@msufly]

I won't lie though...I've taken pauses while stitching in bed, leaned back and fallen asleep for a little bit. Lol

[@Whimsicalstitcher]

Happy birthday and congratulations on 3k subscribers !!

[@msufly]

Thanks!!

[@SmallTownStitches]

If you made $29 in February that’s awesome! Mine made like $10. Your stitching is beautiful! As always you know that. lol Happy early birthday to a fellow March birthday and Michigan girl from another!

[@msufly]

Happy early bday Leanne! YT studio said estimated $29 so I'll find out later I guess. Happy stitching!

[@mrsbobbinlacer]

Thank you for the video. I love your work and how you set up places to stitch. Have a good birthday month. I have walked off so many highways because of cheap or no repair cars and can't do it anymore. I am too old and cripled from the husband's games.

[@msufly]

Thank you! I'm learning how important it is to take care of your car!

[@lynncordova8169]

The colors in the Jody Bergsma piece are beautiful.❤ Between all your pieces you get to stitch almost the whole crayon box of colors. ( The basic box.) 😊 I love you showing how to stitch with all the fancy stuff. Sometimes it works better than all the that stuff, anyway. Congratulations on 3K subscribers! Happy Birthday, Kim. ❤

[@msufly]

You're right Lynn! That's why I like switching between projects so I can work with different colors. Thanks for the bday wishes. Happy stitching!

[@LidiasLeisurelyStitching]

Happy birthday and happy stitching!

Your needle is flying through lots of projects again! Good to see you looking happier, probably all the stitching goals set and met. Happy birthday, Kim!

[@msufly]

Thanks Carol! ❤️ happy stitching!

Happy Birthday 🎁🎊🎉

Thanks!

[@lindaklinedinst9236]

Hi Kim I have been miss you - it’s so great to see a Video from you. Love all of your WIPS - you are making great progress on them. Take Care & Happy Stitching ❤️🤗🙏🧵🪡🧵❤️

[@francummings3398]

I love your explanation of your stitching set ups. I think sometimes new stitchers are scared off because of all the fancy equipment we use, but you show that it can be done on a budget. Your progress is amazing. I have signed up for several challenges, but may need to cut back to one, because it tends to scramble my brain when several projects are going at once. You do a great job of shifting from one to another with ease. Looking forward to your next video. Hope your birthday month is fun and fulfilling.

[@msufly]

Thanks Fran! I'm all about thinking outside the box and using what we have already!

[@donnamccaffrey4364]

Happy Birthday this month. Great progress on all your projects. Happy stitching!

[@msufly]

Thanks Donna! ❤️

[@solarwinds-]

I love the four seasons sampler (forgot the name of the artist). The white on blue reminds me of the British Wedgewood.

[@msufly]

Thank you! I don't know what British Wedgewood is but the design is from Modern Folk Embroidery.

[@solarwinds-]

Oh, I'm sure you've seen it before. It's usually a ceramic mat finished blue box with a lid and some kind of white scene on it. Have you seen a cameo broach... same thing in appearance but Wedgewood is blue. Very fancy, like fine china.@@msufly

[@susanmarit5365]

Hi Kim! Wow you sure got a lot done, HAPPY STITCHING 🧵🪡🧵🐾 🦜

[@msufly]

Thanks Susan!

[@lynnhamps7052]

Love your projects..happy birthday 🎂..and congrats on rising sub numbers, well deserved. Here in the UK we have no choice but to look after our cars, it is called an MOT, and it is an annual check up our cars have to pass..if they fail, they cannot be driven again until all faults are fixed. It encourages people to maintain their vehicle and makes it safer for all road users as we are assured the vast majority of cars are roadworthy. You appear to be very good at your job..lol. As an aside, hope you don't mind me saying, but you look especially bright eyed and happy in this video...not that you usually look bad...but you know what I mean...and not in a creepy way, I'm old enough to be your mum, in fact my eldest son is a year older than you...lots of rambling, it's the British way..lol 😊✌🇬🇧

[@msufly]

Ramble away Lynn! Lol. Some states here require annual inspections but MI does not so alot of people will drive their cars until they won't run anymore. And I know what you mean about looking brighter, and you're not imagining it...there's a reason I'm a little more optimistic and happier. Happy stitching!

[@lynnhamps7052]

Lol.thanks for understanding..if I'm like this with the written word you can imagine trying to have a sensible conversation with me..😊 glad you have a reason to smile!! 💖

[@yvonnevigil7489]

Great Video Kim. You stitched so much for a short month. I was going to say " oh I love _____ chart but then you showed another and I loved that one too. So they all look great. Question: how do you stitch tent stitch without a noticeable line on full coverage? take care dear

[@msufly]

Thanks Yvonne! The key to no visible lines for me is the cross country by color per page with all the feathering into the next page, so there are no straight lines with harder tension. I've tried doing one 10x10 block at a time and you could see the checkerboard.
