Your voice is so soothing and I love your two camera set up! Glad you got to visit charting creations. Happy stitching and good luck with the tiny stitching 💜

[@makingthingswithstring]

Thank you for watching and for the kind comment! I am excited to try the tiny stitching!!

Enjoyed your video Kate, you've been busy. Love your fabric choices for the Nora Corbett projects, looking forward to seeing your starts on those.

[@makingthingswithstring]

I can't wait either!! I've loved those two charts for a long time. Might have been better to start with those rather than Ophelia... that dress is massive!

[@xstitchinglibrarian]

Hi Kate. I love your Candy Shop finish. You are making such great progress on your wips. I am also loving the Nora Corbett charts. Great fabric color choices. ❤❤

[@makingthingswithstring]

Hi Judith! Thank you 💙 I can't wait to start those Nora Corbett charts! They are so pretty.

Your mom flew through that MFE piece! Tell her I love it. I'm so glad she enabled me on that blue Roxy fabric it's gorgeous. Can't wait to use mine.

[@makingthingswithstring]

Any idea what you might stitch on it?? It's really beautiful.

[@CharlotteKozlowski358]

@makingthingswithstring Don't have a pattern in mind yet, but a christmas MFE or quaker is high on my list of possibilities.

Finally found time to watch your newest video!! Not sure if you heard of it, but the game Valheim has been taking up a lot of my usual KZbin time ;) hehe! It's really cool that your stitch from pride piece was a Frieda Kahlo inspiration piece! Looks great! Love the yellow on the fabric! LOVE the toyshop!!!!!! Looks so lovely finished! I still find it hard to choose whether I liked it more without the black outlines - looked so good without, and ALSO looks so good with!!! Can't wait to get my friendship bracelet.... ;) haha Needs no paint! I LOVE seeing those beautiful braided colours of the thread that's waiting to get stitched into the piece. Those critters are so cute!!! I really like the choices you're making with your pieces - really makes your version really unique to you!! The Elemental dragons piece looks great!! I love seeing your parents' crafts!!

Thanks for watching as always Jill! It means a lot that you took some time out of your Valheim schedule to watch. 😆 Yeah Toy Shoppe was sooo satisfying. I think I like it better with the backstitch, but I can see what you are saying! I ALMOST didn't do the French knots for the snowflakes for that reason... I really liked how it looked without them. But it makes it a little more Xmas-y. I hope I can start either Floral Dream or Moonglow next year... making myself finish Ophelia first!! See you soon (probably in Valheim)!

Your finishes look great. Love the finish by Dimensions, Toy Shop. Beautiful stitching. Take care💖

[@makingthingswithstring]

Nice to hear from you! :) Thanks for the kind comment!

Oh I can't wait to see your tiny stitching! Elemental Dragons is looking fabulous! I need to catch up with you on that one. Oh, and my Radvent cardigan has been sitting on my craft table staring at me since I joined the two sides. Maybe I'll get the stitches picked up for the hem this weekend.

[@makingthingswithstring]

Yeah, I think I'll be trying to finish up Elemental Dragons pretty quick since it's a smaller piece... then we can start the Hummel Kids kits! ;) I can see how the hem could be a little daunting - that's a lot of stitches to pick up!

[@nicolec2523]

Your leftover floss could be used for a bookmark, needlebook & scissor fob, small pillow, etc. - any small. I would certainly not toss it since it was good enough to stitch a large piece. Even a gift tag for any occasion.

[@makingthingswithstring]

Great suggestions! Thank you ☺
