Thank you for this epic start parade for 2024! Your passion is contagious and I can’t wait to see your next flosstube.

[@Ailarra918]

Thank you! That's so sweet! I'm so looking forward to this new year!! 🥰💙

[@JustJan2662]

Enjoyed all 3 of your start parade videos! Looking forward following along with your stitching journey this coming year!

[@Ailarra918]

Thank yourself much for watching them!! I'm so ready to get this shin dig started!

[@anaussieinakiwiworld9355]

Thank you so much for sharing your time with me Ailarra, I am grateful your enabling has only hit my wishlist 4 times. I have been very refrained. You have done awesome projects and look forward to sharing your journey! Take care and happy stitching 🌷🌷

[@Ailarra918]

Thank YOU so much for taking the time to watch them all! Glad I didn't hit the wishlist, i.e. wallet eventually, too hard 😆💙

[@karinmonnich3310]

Again, I love all your new starts. You will have to find a whole wall just for your horses and unicorns lol. Happy stitching!

[@Ailarra918]

Thank you! I have the wall picked out already 🤣💙

[@rachel5288]

Just found your channel and I've really enjoyed your keeping me company as I stitch. You have some beautiful patterns and fabric! Looking forward to seeing your progress next year!

[@Ailarra918]

Welcome! Thank you so much for joining me on this wild ride of mine! 😁💙

[@anetidemann3322]

I have never been so impressed with anyones stamina before! WOW! I'm so looking forward to se all your progress during 2024 and the recape WIP parade :D

[@Ailarra918]

Haha thank you! To be fair, I did record over quite a few days 🤣. Thank you for taking the time out to watch them! 🥰💙

[@Kimstitchery]

I did it!! All three!! Good for you doing this. You’re a trooper. Happy Christmas and see you next year

[@Ailarra918]

🥳🎊🥳 You're a trooper for watching them all!! Hope you have a Merry Christmas and Happy, Healthy New Year! 💙

[@daphnechamberlain7225]

Loved watching the three start videos. Can't wait to see how things all works out for you in 2024. Happy stitching

[@Ailarra918]

Thank you so much for joining me! 🥰💙

[@cotterillfamily7355]

WOW!! Have just spent three nights watching this, how good! Happy Christmas! - take care, Nic x

[@Ailarra918]

Thanks so much for watching!! 🥰

[@KyChimerical]

You stitch so many patterns i love. I want the old unicorn and pegasus Kustom Kraft and Near Northern Treasure patterns too. They can be hard to find but the artwork is so nostalgic to me.

[@Ailarra918]

So many older patterns are true classics! 💙

[@carolcoallier42]

I want to thank you so much for sharing your parades. I'm turning 66 next year and I'm thinking of starting 66 projects but they will be ornaments for Christmas and Halloween . I already have a few big projects already on the go.

[@Ailarra918]

Thank you so much for watching them! I'm really looking foward to the ornaments - I don't usually do smalls!

[@sheilahumphrey-morris1588]

Hi, I met you at the Stitching in the Springs retreat in November. I made it through your last four videos and they were amazing! I am very impressed with the type and amount of stuff you stitch. I can’t wait to see your next video.

[@Ailarra918]

Aww, hi Sheila!! Thanks so much for coming to check out my marathon videos! Glad you enjoyed!! 🥰💙

[@marzipanstitcher8571]

Wind and snow dragon. Love it so much. I'm only planning four new starts.

[@Ailarra918]

I'm really looking forward to that one, too! Four starts is much more reasonable to be fair 😅

[@josorensen5045]

The 3 parts were great! Can't wait to see how your going to pick the pieces your going to work on. Merry Christmas! 🎅🎅🎅🎅

[@Ailarra918]

Thank you, Jo! I'm really looking forward to making videos this upcoming year! Have a Merry Christmas and wonderful New Year! 🎄💙🥰

[@whichstitchps]

I have super enjoyed watching your start parades! I think you've juuuust about convinced me to do 50 new starts for my 50th birth year. 😮😅😅😅

[@Ailarra918]

I love it!! An excellent goal for such a milestone birthday 🥳💙

[@sunrise49738]

Hi Ailarra! Thank you so much for all the time you spent filming these. Glad your hubby has tested negative. Fingers crossed that you will continue to avoid getting sick. The Victorian Love piece is so cute! Artemis is a gorgeous fabric. I have been stitching with Weeks Dye Works thread while watching you and I can tell you that I am hating it more and more. When I use up what I bought the threads for years ago, I will never buy another one. The variegation is not there enough to justify the frustration of working with it let alone the whole hoopla with the company from a few years ago and the added expense. Good luck working with the rayon threads and the Light Effects. They are gorgeous but also add a degree of difficulty. Best of luck to you in achieving your goals. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family. Take care my friend! Dawn in Texas

[@Ailarra918]

Oh no! I'm sorry to hear about the Weeks Dye Works being so frustrating to work on! I haven't used them yet, and I don't *think* I have any? Or do I? 🤣😂🤣 Can't remember now LOL. And I hadn't heard about the drama from before 🧐. I agree that if there's not enough of a difference in color in overdyed threads, there's not much point to them! Gentle Art Grits comes to mind 😅. Or Onyx lol. Anyway, hope you can get through the rest of them without too much hassle! 🥰💙 Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family as well!! 🎄💙

[@Lisa-vb3gn]

That was great! I watched all of them while getting ready for Christmas. I am looking forward to seeing your progress in 2024. My goal is 100,000 stitches.

[@Ailarra918]

Thank you for watching! That's an excellent goal! 💪👏🙌

[@onestitchatatime-tara]

Shew!!! I made it!!! I am still amazed that you are doing all these new starts!! It will be so much fun following your journey!! I will hopefully be starting the Reindeer by CGS in 2024! See you soon!!❤

[@Ailarra918]

🥳🎉🎊 Thanks for watching! It'll be interesting to see how sick of new starts I get and how quick 😅. Enjoy your new start when you get to it! 💙

[@kimpembleton2683]

I’ve watched all 3 parts of your Start Parade … that’s some kind of crazy! 😁😂🤣 I’m all about the full coverage & couldn’t imagine starting “just” those. I tallied them up while I was watching… there weren’t stitch counts for the vast majority so I just did my best: HAEDs: Reg - 16, Reg MC - 1, Reg CE - 1, SK - 9, Mini - 8, SSMC - 1 Other Full coverage: Small - 17, Med - 13, Lrg - 11 ~for a total of 77 full coverage~ AND Mira’s & other fancy ladies - 12 You go girl!

[@Ailarra918]

Oh, these stats are awesome! I kept thinking I should tally them and then just couldn't be bothered 😂🤣😂

[@cjstitches5709]

Sweetheart I just want to say I totally respect the time it took for you to kit these up plan everything and do the videos ❤️. You are a rockstar❤️. I’m so impressed and so look forward to watching your videos next year. It will truly be a fun year❤️. You are the best. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and a wonderful New Year❤️❤️

[@Ailarra918]

Thank you!! It did take a while, but I had fun with it! Thank you SO much for your continued support 🥰. I'm really looking forward to next year, too! Have a great Christmas and New Year, too! 🎄💙🥰

[@cjstitches5709]

@@Ailarra918 Thank you sweetheart ❤️

[@trishscripter7760]

I did Rosie's Pride by Stoney Creek years ago. I love it. Also the Enchantment pattern from Kustom Krafts is not embellished. It is straight cross stitch and full coverage. I bought it as a kit from Hobby Lobby years ago.

[@Ailarra918]

Oh that's excellent news about Enchantment! Thank you! I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for a good deal 😁💙

[@Ailarra918]

Aaaaannndd I just bought it 🤣🤣🤣

[@amywyckhouse]

It's very impressive that you are only 1200 stitches off. I would definitely just absorb it into your projects and not worry about it. I have a problem with having to finish my thread if there are more stitches of that color to finish in a section so I am always getting a few extra in each project that I have a specific number of stitches as the goal. haha. I just did the math. it's only 3 or 4 extra stitches per project. Good luck. I am rooting for you to touch all of your projects, but I have forgotten how you will rotate them or work on one until you finish. guess I will have to wait and see!!!!!

[@Ailarra918]

I was definitely glad it was +1200 and not -1200! That would have bothered me way more lol. I usually stop at the even 100's marl for the Facebook stirchy games I'm in, but I may borrow a page outnofnypur book with finishing threads off just to get the extras stitches in 😂. Next video will show just how the whole shebang is coming together! Thanks for hanging out with me! 💙

[@therockingstitcher]

Thus was so much fun!!! And WOW🤯 So many projects!! You’re definitely insane and I love you even more for it. But glad I’m not in your shoes😅 In which book is the stitchrovia piece about worry? I need that in my life! I loved that you kept soothing yourself, saying it was okay that the pieces of paper didn’t match up with your projects. While clearly needing to hear that. So recognizable❤️

[@Ailarra918]

Hahaha...I'm having my year of All the Starts finally! Just a year later than I anticipated LOL. That pattern is from the Cross Stitch for the Soul book. Such a good saying for us, isn't it?! And yes, my plans were a culmination of everything I wanted to do and the compromises needed to get me there 💙

[@HoopItUpWithJan0606]

Oh boy! Looks like we better get our seat belts on for next year. I can’t wait to see how you keep track and mark off your goals as you complete! My favorite part of Jenn’s video is her wrestling that big poster board with her blue’s clues marker. 😂

[@Ailarra918]

I may or may not have several boards to wrestle with myself 🤣😂🤣

[@tellmeayarn1801]

You and my daughter share a birthday. And mine is two days later. 😁

[@Ailarra918]

September is an awesome month 😎😁💙

[@lauraharrison9893]

I never saw her finishes!

[@Ailarra918]

I'm not sure which you're referring to 🙈

[@Samsonsmom83]

Love all of your starts. i was wondering what is China fabric?

[@Ailarra918]

Thank you! It's the plain aida/evenweave I get from AliExpress. It's not absolutely top quality, but it's much more affordable and still enjoyable for me to work on. I'll be sure to talk a little more about it when I address questions in my next video, if you'd like to get a more in depth explanation about it 😊💙

[@lynnhamps7052]

Really enjoyed this epic series..such gorgeous pieces...you are very good company and I look forward to your journey being a part of my 2024 too....hope you and yours all get better before Christmas..love from U.K. ...😊✌🇬🇧🎄

[@Ailarra918]

Thank you so much for your kind words and hanging out with me! Everyone is finally on the healthy end for the moment - now hopefully to stay that way 😅. Have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! 💙
