[@jillpoteat2974]

I loved seeing your video. Your Valentine cross stitch was so beautiful! I loved everything that you showed. Your husband was so sweet to get you kits, for your gift. I would have loved that, too! You always enable me, but that's OK😄. See you very soon.

[@stephanieb7800]

Yes to videos of your kit collections, yes to any video you do!! So sweet of your husband to give you cross stitch kikts for Valentine’s. I love the story of your father giving away his favorite eagle to thank someone for their kindness.❤

[@beckipugh8124]

Thanks for another great video. YES definitely I'd love to see videos of your collections, fabric, kits. How sweet of your husband to go through and purchase those charts for you, he really understands your passion for your hobby! Happy Stitching!

Wonderful video!! Thank you so much for sharing! Happy stitching!

[@stitchingfae]

Thank you! 😊

[@harleyriderstitcher3951]

Your "mistake" makes more sense than beach does! Love it.

[@lorettahenderson8979]

Thanks for another wonderful video...yes to seeing you I your Dimensions collections...very sweet of hubby's Valentine gifts...beautiful stitching...best wishes❤❤

[@StitchinwLoo]

Really enjoy watching you while I stitch! I like to collect dimensions kits too...I'm actually working on a gold 1 right now and have several smaller and large in my wip rotation so it'd be cool to see what ones u have that I could add to my wish list! (As if i need an excuse lol)😉 a millhill video would b cool too...like a kit parade of those but the 1s uve finished, too!! 🪡❤️

[@homemadeontheridge]

Loved seeing your finishes and progress!

[@lisadolson6598]

HI Heidi! It is always so fun to see all of your projects! That was soooo sweet of your husband to get you those beautiful Dimensions kits! I did see one of the Blackbird designs that you said were out of print on 123 Stitch, so one is reprinted. But, you shouldn’t let the fact that you do floss tube dictate what you stitch. Those of us who have stitched for a long time have lots of older charts that we still want to stitch. Stitch what you love and we will enjoy seeing whatever you stitch!! 😊You had also asked about stitching on the piece of 32 count that was the right color or ordering the higher count. Sometimes I debate about that too. I’m getting to the point that I use what I have. The stitching is still beautiful! Thanks for sharing! Take care!

[@stitchingfae]

Oh wow! I must have missed one of their re-releases! I do hope designer will reprint all of their OOP charts 🤞. Thank you so much for your kind support, I truly appreciate it 🥰🥰🥰

[@1856BrickHouse]

I absolutely love your videos, so much wonderfulness.

[@heathershearer7889]

Thank you for taking the time to make your videos.I look forward to everyone of them❤❤❤

[@stitchingfae]

Thank you, I appreciate your kind words of encouragement 🥰🥰🥰

[@jeanakimball5691]

Wow! What a journey with you through WIPS, plans, an purchases! You definitely are all set for the next two weeks. Thank you so much for sharing!😊

[@stitchingfae]

You are so welcome! Thank you! 🥰

[@chellesunflwr]

Absolutely ‘YES’ to videos on your kits collection videos. Love all you share. Thank you for taking the time to share. So grateful! ❤️🌻👍🏼

[@stitchingfae]

Yay! Thank you 😊

[@911stitcher]

You have such awesome projects. I can honestly say, I want to stitch almost all of them! I’m so glad you showed the Ooh La La book because I’ve forgotten what great patterns are inside. It was so great to see you ❤️❤️

[@stitchingfae]

Thank you Stacy! It is one of my favorite books, yet I haven’t stitched any of the patterns yet 😂

[@owlbestitching8839]

🦉Beautiful shares ❣️🧵💕🦉🛎️

[@athenabesa380]

Wow, I love you have Vicky Clayton’s silk for your Hawk Run Autumn. Have fun!

[@stitchingfae]

Thank you! It is an investment but since I am gonna stitch on it for long time, I thought I should splurge 😂

[@Linda-Lovestostitch]

I love watching your video. Your finishes are beautiful.

[@stitchingfae]

Thank you so much! 😊

[@catherinemurrieta1327]

Such a sweet gift from your husband for Valentines Day. Awesome plans you have 🙂

[@briannalentz]

Another video filled with inspirational work! I loved your stash enhancement and I think that is so wonderful your husband gave you such a thoughtful gift! How lovely 😊 Also, I am so here for Dimensions kit stash and mill hill stash videos! Just sayin! Happy Stitching ❤

[@stitchingfae]

Thank you Brianna! I am watching your Nashville Market video right now! Love it 😍

[@kimberlywatson7788]

Always love love love your excitement for every project. ❤. I would certainly tune in to see your dimension display !! And kit parade. I am also a collector.

[@janniestanley]

It always blows my mind how much stitching you accomplish. I also appreciate that you mention mistakes. I sure make them and sometimes they’re at a point where they’re better left just as they are. Your stitching is just lovely and your videos are so full of interesting stuff I just can’t help but watch them😊 Anyway I’m looking forward to your next video. Oh and your handwriting and calligraphy are so pretty! And what a great organized idea. I’m still a monogamous stitcher. Don’t know how you keep track and get all that work done. Thx again for the video!

[@stitchingfae]

Thank you, but to be fair there are times I do loose or “misplace” patterns and forget about it until suddenly I find them when I am looking for something else 😂

[@janniestanley]

Still. You have so so many projects going. I always do just one at a time. And you must be a fast stitcher too. I may finish like 3 projects a year where you finish tons of them. Motivating for me. And I think the level of difficulty of the designs you stitch are way more difficult than mine.

[@jacquelineboyd1269]

Great video. Enjoyed. Thanks for sharing

[@rebeccawelsh7007]

Love your videos and hope to see your dimensions collection in the future. Wish you the best!

[@stitchingfae]

Yay! Thank you for your feedback! 🥰🥰🥰

[@anitaphelps8663]

Another great flosstube! I'd love to see your Mill Hill and Dimensions collection. My Xmas tree is all stitched ornaments, and I have a lot of the Mill Hill Bead ornaments.

[@stitchingfae]

Wow! That’s amazing! My dream to have a tree with all stitchy ornaments! Thus far I do not have any stitched ornaments on my tree. I need to remedy that … soon 😂

[@jonij794]

Thanks for sharing all your stitching, plans and enhancements. I laughed out loud when you commented about having enough stitching for the next two weeks. You are a fast stitcher so maybe not?! 😂 happy stitching.

[@cwolf44]

Heidi, you might want to try hair spray to remove the ink. Spray it onto a saucer and use a Q-Tip to dab on the stain. I have had a lot of luck with that over the years. Even took ink off of one of my dogs who got into a pen.

[@stitchingfae]

That’s interesting! You are second person recommending hairspray method. Honestly never heard about it before. Thank your for sharing your experience removing ink stains 🥰🥰🥰

[@courtnieburrell3266]

Love both of your cupid pieces! Another wonderful video. Thanks 😊

[@Paulabee348]

Your stitching is beautiful Fae

[@stitchingfae]

Thank you! 😊

[@melodystader1318]

I can’t wait to see your Dimensions kits! I love them as well!

[@stitchingfae]

Yay! Thank you!

[@cindygaudet1390]

Oh love the video, and the mill hill will look great in the frame! Did you do the calligraphy in your notebook!!? If so awesome job! Yes love any wip parade and kit parade be fun! I am doing a full coverage for my husband as I watch. Love your videos and your sweet personality!❤

[@stitchingfae]

Thank you, no I didn’t, it is one of the regular fonts from my computer 😂 but I wish I could do it freehand 😊

[@mudpuppystitchery]

I always get so excited when you upload!! ❤❤❤

[@stitchingfae]

Thank you 🥰

[@angelasaunders9424]

Loved to see all your projects. (I think maybe you were referring to Curious Crafters for the floss)

[@stitchingfae]

Yes, you are absolutely correct. The moment I stopped recording I remembered. 😂I did put their channel name and the episode #42. I linked their channel on my descriptions so people can go and see the finished product and how pretty floss looks on that house 🤩

[@normaferro3190]

Your videos are always so much fun to watch, and the amount of your progress truly puts me to shame. I am currently working on the last page of Ballerina Beauty by Dimension - once that is finished, all I’ll need to do is the backstitch and it’ll be ready for the framer. It is a gorgeous pattern, but in March it’ll be a year since I started it, but it’s been a real fun stitch.

[@stitchingfae]

Oh wow! That’s a great progress! I imagine mine will take couple of years the way I change projects so often 😂

[@normaferro3190]

@@stitchingfae Most likely will take you some time to finish it since you work on numerous projects. You will find that this kit has you working, at any given time, with one, two, four threads, plus you’ll be using a combination of different threads together. There are also some cross stitches and some half stitches, but I must admit that the end result, the shading it creates, is beautiful. I hope you enjoy working on this as much as I have.

[@CorpusChristiCrossStitcher]

I always enjoy your video. You have beautiful patterns and your stitching is elegant!

[@dianhumphrey1283]

Love are your wips starts and new charts can’t wait to see your progress and new starts. Until next time. Would love to stitch happy hearts if you’d loan it out I would take good care of it:]

[@lisayantek8867]

Yes for linen stash!

[@stitchingfae]

Yay! Thanks for feedback 😊

[@TeamegnerCo]

Heidi. I’m not sure who you use for a framer but you certainly CAN have your frame up close to the stitching on Rose and the Giant Pear. They make them whatever size you want & you won’t even see the ink.

[@stitchingfae]

Hi! Both Michaels and Hobby Lobby told me they can’t cut frames smaller than 5” because it’s their policy. I think individual framing places might be willing to cut smaller frames but big box store are not willing to do it

[@genevievegiella9066]

WOW FAE THAT TREE 🌲 IS GOING TO BE GORGEOUS….❤️❤️❤️ I CANT WAIT FOR YOU TO FINISH THAT….. I LOVE 💗 YOUR STITCHING 🧵 ITS SOOOOOO BEAUTIFUL ……I HAVE USED HAIRSPRAY ON INK AND IT WORKED… BLOT WITH A CLEAN WHITE CLOTH TO ABSORB THE INK …. I HOPE THIS WORKS FOR YOU …..

[@stitchingfae]

That’s interesting! I will test it out. Thank you for recommendation 🥰

[@bettyechristain9711]

A lot ofpeoplegently stitch crochet doileys to a pillow front and they are lovely. Also have seen then stitched on background and framed. They are both pretty.

[@stitchingfae]

I need to Google crochet finishes, that’s another great option for FFO 😊

[@dawnellaconger1719]

I just finished cupid sampler last week, but I'm going to make mine into a pillow.

[@stitchingfae]

I was planning to do pillow too but her cover photo made me curious to see if I can still remember how to hem 😊

[@OnceUponAStitch]

Hi Heidi! Fantastic video and stitching! You are always so much fun to watch. On your Winter Montage you said it's not the full coverage one. How do you know when buying it if it's full coverage or not. Is it one kit and it offers the two patterns? I love how you're doing it that it's not ful coverage. Happy stitching! Lori

[@alanaxstitcher8403]

Hi. The full coverage is a pattern by Paine Free Crafts (not a kit) and the one Heidi is doing is by Janlynn sold as a kit :)

[@OnceUponAStitch]

@@alanaxstitcher8403 thank you so much for letting me know. I appreciate the explanation!

[@stitchingfae]

Hi Lori! Yes, she is correct.I am stitching the kit I got from Amazon that comes with floss and Aida. The full coverage you get from the website and you have to kit it yourself 😊

[@OnceUponAStitch]

@@stitchingfae thanks Heidi. I like your version! 💕

[@bettinaxstitch177]

I love your Videos Heidi ❤. And i love Elizabeth Weston. I also bought her recently … and i have Sarah Gerrard on my to do List … Stitchers Need days with more than 24…Hours … 😂 or i should try to have less sleep 😅

[@stitchingfae]

Yes I agree! If we only had more than 24 hours a day and 4 hands to stitch with 😂😂😂

[@stitchinglonestar6362]

I always love your videos Heidi. I can’t help but notice the A380 tail of the model plane in your background. I know your husband is a pilot-is that the plane he flies? My son’s fiancée flies passenger 737s, so I am always curious. He sounds thoughtful for picking Dimensions kits for Valentines day. I love your Let Freedom Ring-you are further along than I am!

[@stitchingfae]

Yes it is Airbus model but he is in 737 as well 😊

[@debramckenzie266]

Loved the video

[@wandapotts9320]

Girl! You are going to be busy. Do the eagle first because your sweet husband took the initiative and picked you out some beautiful projects. I love to see everything you do. Great video Stay safe..

[@stitchingfae]

Great advice! He is showing interest to my craft I should show my appreciation 😊

[@naturegirl7420]

Candy cane stitch is wonderful. What are teal floss numbers please?

[@stitchingfae]

Aww thank you! For the light teal color I used WDW Sea Glass and for the darker leafs I used WDW Kentucky Bluegrass 😊

[@talingochian6276]

I’m an Armenian stitcher 😍

[@stitchingfae]

Yay! That’s awesome! 😁

[@heathershearer7889]

Thank you for taking the time to make your videos.I look forward to everyone of them❤❤❤
