Oh Bonnie, if you only knew how much you bless all of us who are sister stitchers with you! And I know it makes Jesus smile when He hears of your love for Him. It’s such a ray of sunshine in this topsy/turvey world to hear your “Good Stuff” segment✝️. Thank you for all the content you bring that inspires us and the Good Stuff that lifts us up! Blessings to you❤️.

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

You’re, so sweet! I made you wait a few days, but hurrah,,,,I posted the second half today. I love your enthusiasm!

[@theresachucle5362]

I enjoy watching your videos and hearing about your stories and all your beautiful finishes and projects. Have a wonderful evening and God Bless you and your family. 😊🤗🤩🧵🪡

[@pamconley2808]

Thank you for your video and all that you share. May God bless you and thanks for sharing the word. I love watching your videos and how much you inspire me to do more. Thanks.

[@joycewells4115]

I love your videos! We're approaching our 80s and are slowly decluttering and simplifying as well. I am stressing over finishing all my cross stitching patterns while I can. My daughter has no interest in stitching but thankfully my younger sister also cross stitches so I told her all my stash and flosses etc will be hers someday. She is thrilled.

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

It’s satisfying to know our treasures will go to others who will cherish them. I’m sure you are Enjoying your stitching and your collections now.

[@conqueringmountscrapmorewi2509]

Fun chat! Thanks for posting this video!

[@allegrostitches5489]

Another wonderful video. I love that you're using what you have 💜

[@beckyhautanen1774]

Thank you for your inspiring video! Love the stitchy boxes!

[@charj57]

Your box finishes are so beautiful.

[@gailfirenze4760]

Dear Bonnie , hold on to His promises. If God is for us, who can be against us. All we have is His anyway. Over here in Australia we’re seeing many things happen as well. Blessings Gail

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

Oh Gail, I’ve been watching Rebel News there in Australia and I was thinking of you and wondering how you’ve been doing! Praying for your protection and guidance!

[@amyshavendesigns8369]

Loving your finishes and your videos. I have just downloaded Love never fails. I have been meaning to for ages! I am also the “sensitive one” and since my mother sat me down to tell me I am also strong I have been going from strength to strength. I still need reminding and just yesterday my friend had to tell me once again. We are daughters of God, and He will ALWAYS look out for us on this journey. He has done so far, so I have no reason to doubt He will continue to care for me. I am writing this before the end of your video….and you just said what I was just saying. I knew we were kindred spirits as soon as I saw your first video way back when.

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

Ahh Amy! Yes, Kindred Spirits and Daughters of the Most High God and Father!

[@QBee6]

Enjoyed going through your journey explaining your less is more and adaptable life style . May our Lord continue to bless you through this stage in your life. Beautiful finishing

[@sarabrunsvold2461]

Love love love your finishes!! Those little storage boxes are perfect!!!! I’m planning on moving hopefully after the new year. I don’t mind change. It’s just me so it’s pretty easy. It also gives me the opportunity to purge a lot of stuff. The more you do it, the easier it becomes!! Home is where you make it. God is always with us even through the “shaking”. Keep your beautiful stitching going!!! Gif bless you and your family!! We wait in hope.

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

I love that!…..We wait in HOPE! Decluttering is kinda a painful process, but so freeing when it’s done.

[@hisalone7166]

Ahhh…..Bonnie Joy! Your projects are so very lovely but not as lovely as your love for our Lord Jesus Christ. I cannot express how much I appreciate the way you share your love of God. Love you sister! Beverly

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

Thank you, sweet Beverly! I’m so glad you’re part of my dear stitching family and I value your encouragement!

[@rw8869]

I love to watch your videos. They encourage me. This next yr is my yr to declutter, to have less to take care of so I can enjoy family and friends. Times are stressful so need to do my part of my life to simplifiy.thank you for taking time even when you are tired to reach out to us, to encourage us so that we all can have joy never the less. I feel like you are a friend.

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

I’m so glad you enjoy my chats and sharing my treasures! Thank you for your support and love!

[@sheilalovesgreg3489]

You are an encouragement Bonnie! God bless you 💞

[@cheryls6921]

Your finishes are beautiful! Also embracing the "less is more". I want to be content with what I already have and complete projects. Healthy philosophy! I am retired and have much less fun money. I am making all my Christmas gifts this year and loving it.

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

Good plan! I’ve got some unfinished projects that need to be Christmas gifts this year.

[@claudiazelazny4340]

Oh Bonnie, I sure love you !!!!! Your joy and ideas are so much. We all need to down size and keep what is really important...Jesus. Little house in the woods is what I would love to retire to. We'll see..God has his plan. Blessings to you. Claudia

[@nevadastitcher]

It was wonderful spending time with you tonight. I love your finishes! I definitely need to start practicing less is more and this is the perfect time to do that. My three kids in their 30s live very minimalistically. I love hearing your love of God and verses from The Bible that help to support us during these trials. ❤️🧵🪡✂️🙏🏻

[@kathyb.8769]

Bonnie!! I am always inspired with your video's. Spiritually first, then crafty. I am glad you're doing well. Your boxes are beautiful.. you have given me ides! I am also using what I've got and I could probably quilt and stitch the rest of my days nd still not use all that I have, sinful for sure and thank you for reminding me of covertness.. I honestly needed to be reminded. I am looking forward to whatever you have yet shared!! Love, Kathy

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

Hey Kathy! So glad you’re always up for a chat and ready to see what I’ve been up to. Actually, I was on a roll and got three videos done in two days. I’m going to post them increments since I can be so sporadic. I did my one year quilt video and I know you’ll love it!

[@Lllr55]

Loved this video! Your stitching and finishing are beautiful ! I have a few of the card boxes that I need to make tiny things to put inside! Love your tiny needle books! ❤😊

[@debbiemartin9838]

I just found your channel and we are so much alike it blew my mind!! We too are trying to develop a less is more thought process after accumulating almost 3 years of stuff. Stuff I love. I too like to buy and collect lol. I like to go to second hand stores and use old things I find there for finishing. I have several large plastic tubs of those things🙄 . My craft room looks horrible. I can’t get in it to craft because I’m re organizing it lol. We too want to sell and move to a lake house here in Texas. It’s been our dream but as retirement looms close it may not happen. I agree about the political agenda you’re referring to completely and I knew the economy would be right where it is but didn’t dream it would happen within less than a year in office. I love your pieces and how you fit little family reminders in the boxes. You gave me some ideas. Can’t wait to watch more!! You have a new fan!

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

Debbie, I’m so glad you found your way into my sewing room for a visit and to be in my dear stitching family! I know! If this is the first year…… how can we survive….how can our nation endure? We will keep praying and standing for what is right!

[@debbiemartin9838]

@@logcabinstitcher7274 it’s far worse , quicker than I imagined. I see Satan when I look at those people. Pure evil. I’m worried about even able to buy necessities such as groceries and medicines. Now I hear he’s going to target our retirement plans . But I’m trying to learn to calm down about it. God has this. It doesn’t mean it won’t be painful in the process but He’s got this. I’m thankful for our community of stitching. I’m sad things are changing and having to buckle down but hey, how many supplies do I need anyway. As my grandmother used to say, Use it up, wear it out, make it do or do without. I’m trying to learn this lol.

[@chriswashburn9039]

A toothpick may be small enough to use on the box that has the broken lid. Love your finishes.

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

Yes, I think I need to fill in the home that was drilled wrong because the lid opens wonky. I have a small piece of wire that would work for a hinge and be strong. I loved how the box turned out so I do plan on trying to save it.

[@kathigaimara6955]

It always brings me joy to see that you has posted a new flosstube! Your finishes are so inspiring! I always look forward to hearing the “Good Stuff” at the end. Thank you for sharing your stitching, finishing and the “Good Stuff”! What is the name of the Study Bible you use?

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

It’s the Nelson Study Bible in the New King James Version by Thomas Nelson Publishers. One of my family’s mentors recommended that for me and now we all have one

[@kathigaimara6955]

@@logcabinstitcher7274 Thank you so much! I’m so glad you showed it!

[@maryellenmcinnis7693]

Bonnie, we’re not second class citizens. We are citizens of God’s Kingdom. We’re the Kings daughters. Precious in His sight. Nothing can take that away from us. Not only that, we’re so precious to Him Christ gave up his glory to become man, live the life we couldn’t and then paid the price we couldn’t pay and clothed us with His righteousness. It matters not what others think of us or if they think down on us. We are His! Your work is beautiful once again. Love how you’re will to experiment with things and make them your own. I think maybe opinionated people are more will to do their own thing and create beautiful things. Til next time.

[@Leanyscookiejar]

I love the whole down sizing idea. I don't live in a big home and still I find as I get older less is definitely more. The little cabin sounds wonderful. I do hope you show it when the time comes that it is all done!

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

Some day I would love to show it off! I have a few outside pics on Instagram. Thank you for watching and sharing as well about downsizing. The tiny home people say it is such a relief after you walk through the process. It’s a messy process going through it sometimes!

[@susanbuntz]

Love your finishes. Would you please share the threads you used for Camelot’s Rose box? I’ve had the pattern for a while but never was too crazy about the called-for threads. Thank you.

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

I’ll share those tomorrow….just remember Sable is the brown and the called for Dried Roses which was the whole reason I loved that chart…I’ll let you know the rest soon

[@anitaserrano431]

I would suggest you look into fast hair growth fortified shampoo.

[@vanessaangrisani5542]

Here’s a tip, research fast hair growth fortified shampoo.
