Flosstube 9: My Pattern Wishlist

[@Aspen_stitcher]

Loved seeing all your wish list projects! I also love the butterfly wall idea...how fabulous. I have several LolaCrowCrossStitch patterns saved also including Haunted Library. You have enabled me to get a couple of mushroom patterns ...my Mom loved mushrooms! Thank you!

[@STEMxSTITCH]

I found my love for mushroom patterns on accident by finding LolaCrows moonlight mushrooms pattern!

[@Chris-lv2en]

Thank you for another really enjoyable floss tube. Best wishes.

[@STEMxSTITCH]

I’m so glad you enjoyed!

[@edithsmith241]

Enjoyed seeing your favourites, thank you for sharing

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Thanks for watching!

[@britches__get__stitches]

Yes! I love Sprouting Lupine's Koi Pond Series! Your style is so up my alley, love watching your channel. The geologist in my is totally geeking out on the Erosion HAED.

[@STEMxSTITCH]

I’ll have to head over to yours and check out what you are working on then! I would love to see someone finish in of those pieces, they are so neat!

[@britches__get__stitches]

@@STEMxSTITCH Thanks! I actually just picked up a pattern that reminded me of you the other day. It was a Van Goh's Starry Night in a Jar pattern. I believe it was from ZephyrMood? Made me think of the little paintings you have!

[@STEMxSTITCH]

I will take a look at it!!

[@hollyheyer1867]

Love the Autumn Towne House! Added this to my imaginary Etsy TBS list! 😂 Added the CM Daiy Walk in the Woods to my ever growing list. I have a thing for trees of any kind!! 😊

[@STEMxSTITCH]

My list surely never gets shorter! Happy stitching!

[@rebeccajourney3183]

No worries! I downloaded the pattern on Saturday so thank you very much! Huckleberry Farm is by Rosewood Manor. I have, and it is stunning!

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Yay!! I’ll be sending the floss tomorrow! And thanks, I could not remember!

[@MJ-cj3hh]

Fun episode Nicole. I enjoy seeing other stitcher’s interests and being exposed to new designs and shopping sites. I’m looking forward to the ‘behind the scenes’ peek of KZbin monetizing.

[@STEMxSTITCH]

I’m so glad you enjoyed! I also love finding other amazing designers through flosstube. I’m filming that video today - I hope you find it interesting as well!

[@kreuzstichundglitzersteinchen]

No problem with the video issues. I look up from my stitching when you show something 😁

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Glad it wasn’t a problem! I also watch flosstube like that 😆

[@sarahlcc8365]

I loved seeing your wish list. I added a few of them to my list. I definitely want to stitch the elegant lace pattern!

[@STEMxSTITCH]

I couldn’t recommend it more, and it’s such a good pattern to play with fun fabric colors!

[@kcfield601]

I love the lace looking cross stitch. I have the pattern. Waiting to order the floche and floss. Trying to decide what fabric. I would like an avocado kind of colour. I like to see the fabric but sadly my town had no stitchery business. Many times photos alter the actual colour to what you get under natural light. Thanks for showing and sharing. Beautiful progress.

[@STEMxSTITCH]

An avocado green would be gorgeous! I originally wanted to do mine on an emerald/forest green. It is quite hard to judge fabric colors online. I usually google image search the name of it to see a variety of pictures and that helps a bit, but nothing is the same as seeing it in person!

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Garibaldi’s needleworks has an avocado green among others that is very pretty and highly mottled if that’s what you like!

[@P-la_stitches]

I was surprised by how many patterns we share on our purchased and wish lists! I look forward to seeing your take on them. I'm in the weird state where I just finished a project and can't decide which one to start next, so many great choices!!!

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Really?! That's awesome! Are you a monogamous stitcher? I totally get not knowing what to start next, having WIPGO make those choices for me helps a lot (though I struggle to choose what to put on it instead lol)!

[@P-la_stitches]

I've tried having a couple of projects going at once.But when I start the second one my brain goes "umm... What are you doing? You have a perfectly good project over there that isn't finished yet!" And then when I start a third one my brain goes "Hey now! There are 2 wips over there begging to be completed!" And if I try to start a fourth my brain just goes "NOOOOOOOO!!!!"

[@judemack8604]

So many beautiful patterns. I wish I had time to stitch many of them but alas day to day live has it's way of getting in the way of stitching.

[@STEMxSTITCH]

I've had to come to terms with the fact that I will probably have both an endless "to be read" and pattern wishlist for the rest of my life lol

[@michaeljones4380]

Gorgeous patterns! There were a fair few that made it onto my wish list! Really enjoying your flosstubes!

[@STEMxSTITCH]

You’ve been enabled! 😉 which ones made it??

[@michaeljones4380]

All the Ink Circles patterns. I also liked the black Gothic mausoleums. And the cats in the window patterns are lots of fun!

[@bronteg2250]

I love your butterfly wall idea. I’m also working on an insect wall. You should check out Nora Corbetts free butterfly and free bee pattern. Those were my starting points for my collection!

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Ooo what insects have you got so far?? I will definitely take a look!

[@tamarahill873]

So many great patterns. . I love Carolyn Manning patterns also. She has so many to pick from. I’m working on a Worksbyabc pattern at the moment. It’s addicting and I love every stitch I make.

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Which worksbyabc are you doing??

[@tamarahill873]

@@STEMxSTITCH heirloom lace. I dyed a piece of fabric a medium shade of purple and I am using white floss. Your piece is gorgeous.

[@STEMxSTITCH]

That sounds gorgeous!

[@rebeccajourney3183]

Are you familiar with M. C. Escher? Love Barbara Ana Dreaming series! The kiss is hanging over my bed horizontally. Loved this segment! Thank you Nicole!

[@STEMxSTITCH]

I am! I never thought to look for that work in cross stitch form but I bet it would be neat! I’m so glad you enjoyed 😊

[@rui6196]

The Golden Gate Bridge one looks really cool! Another great video. 💚

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Thanks ❤️

[@mlcoffey2]

I am terrified by insects. I didn't know there were crossstitch patterns of insects. Even your pictures make my palms sweat and my heart race. Lol. I'm sure they're lovely.

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Oh no! There are a surprising number if you look for them!

[@marjoriemade]

Okay, well now my wish list is definitely larger 😅

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Then the video worked as intended 😉

[@stitchyduck]

I need that OwlForest toadstools pattern now. They aren't for everyone but out of curiosity have you looked into fancy lady designers or like any of their designs? (Mirabilia/Nora Corbett and Bella Filipina specifically. There was also Lavender and Lace more popular in past decades.)

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Right! It's so stinking cute! I have seen so many other stitchers work on fancy lady patterns. They are gorgeous but just not my style; I would never want to hang one up in my house personally. I love displaying my work, so if it doesn't fit with my style, I wont stitch it!

[@stitchyduck]

​@@STEMxSTITCH Valid, they wouldn't fit my house either but I stitch them because they're pretty, fun, and pretty fun and it's satisfying to see them progress. I'm thinking about giving them to friends and relatives or even just keeping them rolled up to look at and touch when I feel like it. Definitely won't fit just anyone's house not to mention a lot of them are gigantic and cost a lot to kit. I love the lacework-esque pattern on the yellow fabric you're doing by the way, so delicate.

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Totally make sense! I know many people stitch for the experience rather than to display the finished project. And thank you!

[@verasstitchingcorner]

This was so much fun to watch! I really love how you think of how to display your pieces on the wall and pick patterns that complement each other. Owlforest embroidery is great. I’m stitching the Alice in wonderland SAL, and have the 100 owls printed out, ready to be stitches at some point. Have you heard of Stephanie Seabrook, from Pegasus publication? She did a whole bunch of dog patterns back in the day, and I just finished an Italian Greyhound piece by her. Check her out if you are interested in more Greyhound charts. Happy stitching!

[@STEMxSTITCH]

I am so glad you enjoyed it! I almost didnt post it after I realized it was so choppy...I haven't heard of her, I will definitely be taking a look!! Thanks for the recommendation!

[@kassiesbeach]

Don’t we watch flosstube to be enabled?😜 I stitch with videos playing in the background with an occasional look up at the screen so your video did not bother me at all.

[@STEMxSTITCH]

I certainly do! I’m glad it wasn’t a big bother!
