Flosstube #24 - Kit Parade!! 🎉Dimensions Gold, Luca-S, RTO + more!

[@stitchodyssey8543]

Kit parades are so fun to watch! I understand what you said about collecting vs. stitching. I'm constantly reminding myself I have more than enough but watching flosstube doesn't help. Not just kits but patterns too. Take care and thanks for sharing.

[@stitchingmoon]

I know!! So much enabling with Flosstube! 🙈 and now I’m adding to it! 😂

[@julieharden158]

What a great collection of kits you have. I love the Christmas scene in the snow with the animals around the tree. Thanks for sharing your time. Love and blessings xx

[@stitchingmoon]

Thank you for watching! 💕

[@karinmonnich3310]

You have some beautiful kits. I also have the LeviStitch kit, but haven't started it yet. Happy stitching!

[@stitchingmoon]

Thank you! 💕

[@calico_whimsy]

Great kits!!! I'm a big fan of Dimensions as well! Happy Stitching!

[@stitchingmoon]

Thank you! 💕

[@stitching_geri]

Hello- it was nice to see all of your kits. Thanks for sharing!

[@ninahobbysite]

Beautiful kit parade.( I was stitching a dimensions petites) Happy stitching.

[@stitchingmoon]

How fitting! They come out so nice 😊 Thank you!

[@StitchWithMeDaily]

Loved this! I have never seen a kit parade, but thanks for helping me add a few to my wish list!

[@stitchingmoon]

Oh awesome! Glad I could help! 😄 BTW, I literally just found your channel and watched your WIP parade! 😀

[@cjstitches5709]

So good to see you again. Love your kits. You have some beautiful ones. Will be fun to watch you stitch these up and bring them to life. I hope you have a great couple of weeks, stay safe and happy stitching ❤️

[@stitchingmoon]

Thank you! I want to stitch them all at once, but also finish them, so we have a dilemma! 😂

[@cjstitches5709]

@@stitchingmoon So true 😂. I look at all mine and go someday 😂😂. Can’t wait to see your pattern parade ❤️. Hope it’s soon ❤️

[@stitchingmoon]

@@cjstitches5709 😂 maybe you’ll have to do a parade sometime too! 😁

[@cjstitches5709]

I really enjoyed your kit parade and thank you so much for mentioning me and my videos as well!

[@stitchingmoon]

Thank you, I enjoyed yours as well! 💕

I love RTO and Luca-s !

[@stitchingmoon]

Yay!!

[@crystalthechurchmousestitc1888]

Hello! I am so happy to have found your channel. I have been stitching for many years starting with kits and now going back to kits. You described my feelings too with kits being like little presents all wrapped up. You do have some you beautiful kits. Thank you for sharing.

[@stitchingmoon]

Thank you! So glad to find some fellow kit lovers! 💕

[@angelawest5125]

I recently found your channel and etsy site! Thanks for sharing your stitchy talents with us!

[@stitchingmoon]

Yay! Thanks for watching and checking it out! 😊

[@sunrise49738]

Wonderful kit parade, so many kits and charts, so little time. You really have some unique kits. I have quite a few kits myself, mostly Dimensions or Dimensions Gold, and mostly realistic birds and a few animals. I think I have 4 or 5 ornament kits which make 8 per kit so a lot of ornaments and finishes. You did really well at presenting them and talking about what you liked about them. Happy stitching.

[@stitchingmoon]

Thank you Dawn! 🥰 It’s true, we all need more time! Or arms and eyes 😂 I appreciate that! Happy stitching 😊

[@melaniew4354]

The bird in your Nature Surrounds Me looks like a heron, or possibly an egret. Definitely not a swan. I used to be a kit snob back in the 90s, I only bought fabric, floss and patterns from my local needle shop, but now have totally changed my mind and have several Dimensions and Riolis kits I'm working on. Happy stitching!

[@RogueMamaStitcher1]

That was fun! 😃 Fall Fairy is absolutely gorgeous and of course , I love Blue Moon Fairy and am excited to see you start it! 💙 Gosh , there were so many pretty ones. I know what you mean about loving pre-made kits. I have that similar feeling about not wanting to open them until I'm ready to start them. Thanks for another great episode, Meghan. Even my cat got right under my elbow as I was stitching so she could get a better look at you as you talked and showed kits off. 😅 Something must've been interesting to her about you since she's never done that before.

[@stitchingmoon]

😻 so funny! I plan to start Fall Fairy soon!

[@annarickard3747]

I have been enabled! I love the Dimension Gold kits and will be doing a bit of shopping now. Cannot wait to see you start these 😀

[@stitchingmoon]

😂 wooo!! Same here! 😊

[@fiberartsamy2654]

Thank you for sharing! I always find these kit parade videos so inspiring! 💕

[@stitchingmoon]

Thank you!! 🥰

[@suepage5650]

Hi, just watched this and wanted to share my experience of Riolis. They are based in Lithuania and are great to deal with. I ran out of the black thread in my kit and they sent me more, all the way to New Zealand (along with a complete catalog of their kits 😊). The wool/acrylic blend is nice to work with too, especially as it is already single strand, so no separation is needed

[@stitchingmoon]

Thank you! That’s great to know since I’ve bought some more! Hope to dots new kit parade in June! 😄

[@DeeStitcher]

Beautiful collection. So many that I love!

[@stitchingmoon]

Thanks! 💕

[@angelakopecky888]

OMGOODNESS Kit girl here! It’s like you said I love them and I don’t open them until I’m going to start them either. I love Stitching houses and row houses and any kind of picture of houses or scenery too! My problem is I have about 20 kits and I love to finish more than I start. So I will be busy for a long time. 😯 I love Sleigh Ride and M’ Lady’s château!

[@stitchingmoon]

Awesome!! Yes, they make me so happy all wrapped up! I hear ya, I want to finish the ones I have on the go before starting, or at least one of them! Fall fairy may be an exception!

[@angieslowlycrafts]

I love the winter scenes but oh my goodness that white!!! I dont know if I could do it.....but that sky on the Letistitch kit did me in.😍 On the wishlist it goes!!!😄😊

[@stitchingmoon]

😂 I know! The colors are great!

[@kaylirodgers413]

WHOOOOOOOOO! LOVE kit parades!!!!!!

[@kimstolworthy3606]

Love all you kits, but that Fall Fairie! NY & then CT is home… so I totally am with you on the sky & leaves! Miss it too! I now have to find one to do for Fall! 😉🍁🍂 looking forward to your next vlog. (Hope the interview went well!)

[@stitchingmoon]

Thank you! We will see! Yay for Fall! Maybe you can start Fall Fairy too! 😄🍁

[@stitchingworldwithjulia9529]

I have a big box stuffed with cross stitch kits and I trying to finish at least some im working at.

[@Geewhiz65]

Isn't it funny how our tastes change? I also wondered why people would stitch animal patterns. Now I'm obsessed with horse patterns...lol!

[@stitchingmoon]

😂 It’s true! That’s why we need to stock up on all different kinds of kits! 😆

[@stitchingworldwithjulia9529]

I love animal and everything fantasy to stitch!

[@thebrowneyedstitcher]

I want to do Fall Fairy as a companion to Woodland Enchantress! I wish Ruth Sanderson had all seasons but I doesn't seem like she does.

[@stitchingmoon]

I know! I love series like that! Not sure if I’ll do the others because of that, but Fall is def my fav 😄🍁

[@ellenr2512]

Always nice to start the day with you🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@stitchingmoon]

Woohoo!! Thank you! 💕

[@showntellstitcher]

It made me laugh when you were surprised at how many kits you have from that Norwegian site. 😅 can't wait to see you start Fall Fairy. That's my fave. I have Winter Cabin and Red Mermaid as well! Thanks for the shout out. I think it's hilarious that you specified that another flosstuber actually finishes her kits 😆 collecting is a separate hobby.

[@stitchingmoon]

🤣🤣 it’s true, totally separate thing! Lol I was surprised! 🙈 Yes, your fairies look beautiful, will be interesting to see who finishes Fall first! My bet is on you! 😁

it´s so fun to watch this. because I look a lot on finn too. And the ones you have bought I have looked at and been like " hmm, intresting" but I need some time to think and convice myself. I want to reduse my kit stash. only. I just bought two new crossstitches from there. ^^ need to stop look. But How did the intervju go? :D

[@stitchingmoon]

😂 that’s funny! You’re less impulsive than I am 😆 It went well, at least language wise. But still waiting to hear 😏 thanks for asking! 💕

[@Minigamestitcher]

@@stitchingmoon I wouldn´t say that nesesarily. there was one riolis kit with a bird this week that i really regret not buying. Like really ,really regret now. so even if i dont listen to my impulses I really regret not doing that afterwards. I am so glad the language went well :D fingers crossed !

Not sure if anyone posted this yet but the next blue is August 30, 2023😁

No they haven't, thank you!

[@laurenransford7638]

I have a question about Dimension Gold and can't find where else to ask it. Does anyone know where I can contact the company to see if they sell a pdf pattern for Aurora Cabin that works with Pattern Keeper? I can't remember where I bought it (2015!).

[@stitchingmoon]

I’ve heard you can, but I don’t know the contact. I heard it from lizzys little loops. If you find out, let me know! 😄

[@laurenransford7638]

@@stitchingmoon Thanks - I'll try to reach out. This started because I bought a pdf from Etsy to use in PK, but the seller didn't reproduce the symbols faithfully to the paper pattern, which I have about 1/4 stitched. I managed to upload the full Etsy pattern to PK, which was fantastic because the floss numbers populated automatically. But, the Etsy creator also didn't grid it the same as the paper pattern! Not sure why not. It's off by one stitch! So I had to offset the grid, which keeps me from being able to select all stitches in the square. I would love to buy the pdf from Dimensions. I'm not sure how the Etsy seller got the rights to reproduce it in pdf, where it's not actually the same as the paper pattern. Sigh.

[@stitchingmoon]

@@laurenransford7638 oh wow what a pain! I’m curious if Dimensions would sell only the pdf 🧐 I heard you need to email them a pic of the cover or something to show you really have it. Let me know! and good luck!

Hi Megan! Just checking out your videos, you’ve got such a similar taste to mine😅. We have lots of kits it common. Maybe one day if you liked we could do a sal! 😍 . Take care and happy stitching ❤😘🇵🇹

[@stitchingmoon]

Oh that’d be fun! 😀

[@thestitchingsister-2821]

You probably already know this but there are some de-stash groups on Facebook also. A lot that is sold might not be your style, but occasionally there are some kits that are quite cheap.

I have a video about sorting the floss bundles in kits. You might find it helpful and reassuring that the task is actually quite easy. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rmmqqnernN-VebM
