[@barbolivieri-soshesewsquil4867]

I've seen ads pop up on a lot of videos across KZbin. I think it's KZbin doing it to make those of us who don't pay for it change our minds because they are really annoying! I love your Lori Holt quilt! Kim Diehl is my ultimate designer with Lori coming in at a very close second! 🪡✂️🧵

[@annemarie6962]

Welcome home Karen. So glad to see you tonight in Ireland. Hope you find the issue with the Red Deer. I don't like when that happens. I usually put the project away for a few days & do something different before going back when, usually, the issue becomes apparent & I feel like a fool for not seeing it earlier. Congratulations on getting into Stitch Con. I'm watching everyone gathering for Stitch North this weekend & am definitely suffering from fomo in a bad way. It's lovely to see a new quilt. I look forward to seeing them every time. Enjoy being home. Hope you get lots of stitching time in the next few weeks. Take care, best wishes from 🇮🇪

[@recoveringmonogamousstitch1947]

Anne Marie, Thank you so much for being such a loyal viewer. I really appreciate it. I know the mistake will be very obvious when I find it. It always is, but until then, it will drive me nuts. I wanted to go to Stitch North as soon as I heard about it too. Sadly, like so many others, it is just too far away. I am thrilled to be going to Stitch Con. Wish you could be there too.

I am so sorry that you lost your video odd as well as your flowering trees!! Not only is it sad, it's expensive!! Boxwoods are a favorite of mine, especially the English !! I've always wanted to do a boxwood garden with the paths! Love them!! I made a topiary out of a large American boxwood that was in one of my borders. Also, no ads for me when I'm watching you! Take care!! See you next time!! :) ❤

Glad you got home safe and sound. You’re making progress on your stitching. You will have a blast at Stitch-con! I went to an AQS show the first year it was in Chattanooga by myself and I had a grand time. Meet some awesome ladies during an evening event and was so glad I went! I have that Lori Holt book but haven’t yet made on of the quilts. Yours is beautiful as is the quilting! Angela Walters is my quilting guru! Happy stitching and quilting!

[@sharonbeck-hl7cf]

Glad you are home safe and sound. May I suggest with your red deer take a picture with you IPad or phone so that you can enlarge it. The mistake might not be in the deer. Check the website for a mistake in the pattern. I admire how much you get accomplished. Love the quilt behind you.❤

[@recoveringmonogamousstitch1947]

Sharon, Thank you so much for that suggestion! I will do that. It hadn't occurred to me that the mistake could be in the basket of flowers. It absolutely could be. I will also check the website for any corrections to the pattern. Thanks for the compliment on the quilt. See you next time. Best, K

[@judithlockhart7137]

Hello, Karen, glad you are back home safe and sound and enjoying your space for sewing again! Your Red Deer Sampler is so beautiful and hope your find the error. I will mention that I had three ads this time which I haven't had before on your channel and had the same happen with another new flosstuber. I had to turn the volume up pretty high to hear you - which is unusual - but when the ads showed up - they were extremely loud. Hopefully someone has the answer to this. Still great to see your work and enjoy all you do!

[@recoveringmonogamousstitch1947]

Judith, Thank you so much for the comment on my video. My tech advisor (son-in-law) says that KZbin will get its money one way or another. Either they get money from ads, or they get money from people who pay for premium. Pretty disgusting. Sorry to hear about the volume issue in addition to the ads. See you next time. Best, K

Another lovely video, good to see you again. Sorry to hear about your garden plants, it's very frustrating not to mention expensive, mother nature has her own plans. Good luck next year. I'm also stitching Maria and enjoying every stitch. Hope you find your deer stitch error. It's so annoying to spend time looking instead of stitching. Oh that quilt is a beauty, you are so talented, everything you do is lovely. No ads here. Happy stitching.

The thread bed that you made with the final pouch on the outside is really nice and looks very handy! I might have to make one for myself. We live in Colorado where we get lots of snow in the winter. I have found that Russian sage and potentilla endure the cold very well. Also, day lilies survive and come back. and they come in many beautiful colors.

[@recoveringmonogamousstitch1947]

Kathryn, Thank you for the advice on plants that are able to tolerate lots of cold weather. I am definitely going to put in Day Lilies. I will look into Russian Sage and Potentilla. Thanks again. Best, K

Karen, So glad you are back, safe, sound, & Stitching in your Happy Place! I loved your flat-fold finish! I must have missed your preview of that chart, can you tell me the Brand/Designer Name please? I think that is a wonderful gift idea for several friends that have moved to other state & are missed dearly. I am sympathetic about your Red Deer mismatch 😞. I have done that so many times and after searching for a while and not finding the issue, the best thing I can do is to walk away for a day or two and coming back, it quickly becomes "obvious" where the problem is. I hope you find it soon and enjoy the project. That chart is on my "Wish List" and I hope to stitch it within the next year or two. Loved your new project bag, & the Granny Squared Quilt (you are so talented)! Thank you for sharing your time & talents with us. Oh, and so happy you will get to go to a retreat; how I wish I could be there...maybe someday! See you next time!

I’m glad you made it home. I’d be interested in hearing more about how you decided to get a long arm. I’ve been to quilt shows and I’m afraid to even try to use the machine. As for the red deer, we cannot tell there is a mistake. It isn’t a geometric pattern. Sometimes I feel the mistakes I make are better than the original chart.

[@recoveringmonogamousstitch1947]

Ann, Thank you for your comment on my video. I attended two days of classes at a quilt show with Claudia Pfeil. We had hands on time on an APQS Lucey. That made my decision. Mr. Enabler was very supportive of me being able to complete my quilts entirely on my own, not sending them out for quilting. I found a dealer is Louisville and bought it. I am still in a conundrum over the mistake in Red Deer. I really want it to be perfect. I will have to see how it works out. See you next time. Best, K

[@jeannegiebe2718]

So happy to see you made a safe return. I can see that replacing boxwoods would be an expensive proposition. What a shame. Might have been the Christmas deep freeze we had. I also think Lori Holt is genius. I have made her vintage farm girl and then the red and white sew along from three of her books. Next up will be one of her appliques which I have never attempted before. I will be sure to say hello at StitchCon. So glad you got in.

You can disable ads from being played by going into your KZbin Studio, click earn, go to channel, under the advanced settings you can check the box for "disable internet ads". Once checking that box it claims that ads will not be shown on your videos. Hope this helps!

[@maureenlopez9266]

I love your quilt! The colors and fabrics are just beautiful! And the quilting is just lovely! I'm glad you showed it up close. If your kids don't want it, I'll claim it🤣. I probably have "dreamed" cross stitching before, but when I was actively teaching in a classroom, I can tell you I definitely dream taught many a lesson! 😂. They were pretty good too!🤣. That's too bad about the red deer not matching up. Maybe the mistake is not in the deer, but in the flowers that you counted off from or used as a landmark in either the bouquet to the left or the border. That happened to me once with a piece that I came up a row off on. It was a mistake that I made in a flower in the border that I had been using as a marker to count off from. Maybe check the flowers? Hope you find it or are able to work around it. Glad you got into Stitch Con!

I also meant to ask you about your vinyl pouch/thread bed. Did you buy a pattern or invent it yourself? If you invented it could you tell us how you made it? We lost the weigela shrubs in front of our little office building. I planted them about ten years ago. Even my rosemary bush was killed. We had that extremely cold spell that even caused pipes to burst here in the warehouse we live in North Georgia.

I just love all of your stitching & quilting. Your great granny squared quilt is beautiful. What long arm machine did you learn on? Do you still use the same machine? I have been thinking about getting a long arm but they are so expensive. Do you have any advice? Thank you for sharing all of your wonderful work.

[@recoveringmonogamousstitch1947]

Linda, Thank you for your compliment. I took two days of hands-on classes at a quilt show from Claudia Pfeil. The machines provided for the class were APQS Lucey. That is the machine I bought. I don't have any of the fancy accessories. It is fully hand guided. Life-time guarantee. I have had great support from APQS. I certainly won't need another machine in my lifetime. My advice is take a class/classes that give you hands-on experience with a teacher. Go to AQS quilt shows that have vendors. They will let you try out their machines. You want to be comfortable with the machine you purchase. It is a big investment, so you want to be happy with it. Good luck. Best, K
