I would enjoy seeing your mocking basket of whips!! I also enjoyed seeing your past finishes!! Plans are the best part of stitching, keeps us motivated 🪡❌🪡. Thanks for sharing while you are so busy 🌼🪻🌸

[@kathyplantz8832]

I swear you get prettier every time I see you. I’m not a stalker. I am a fellow stitcher. I love all the Not forgotten farm pieces. I have some smalls of hers going now I find them beautiful but kind of hard to stitch. It’s good to see you. Good luck with all your summertime activities.

[@iamastitchnerd2312]

Would love to see your basket of WIPs!!! Always love seeing patriotic stitching…thank you so much for sharing!!

[@caroltown3162]

Crackalackin! 😂 I love it! Yes on the basket of whips. I really enjoyed your patriotic parade and the last one was simply stunning. I can see why it’s your favorite. Wishing you a great week celebrating your son’s graduation.

[@karenmitchell303]

Wow! You have a crazy busy life right now and you still found time to share lovely cross stitch. Enjoy this time with your family. It is very precious. If you do a mocking basket of WIPs I will enjoy it very much. 😊

[@lorettahenderson8979]

[@cherylmarch9293]

Thank you for showing your wips and your past finishes. You actually reminded me of the plum street Sal that Christina had mentioned. Life has had me busy and I forgot that was going on. Anyways got everything ordered I wanted to work on. Loved seeing all your past finishes all so perfect and beautiful! Have a wonderful time at your son’s graduation! ❤️

[@candier2122]

I enjoyed seeing your previous patriotic pieces. Everything you stitch is gorgeous!! I would love to see your mocking basket of WIPS if you have time! Enjoy your time with your family.

[@joyceclowser3371]

I would love seeing what is in your mocking basket of WIPs! I really enjoyed seeing your past finishes. Happy stitching!❤

[@wandamccoll3739]

What a fun patriotic parade!!! The first thought that came to my mind was "oh, we will get to see the Queen of Freedom!!!". It is so gorgeous. You have a spectacular patriotic collection! Have a super time with your son's graduation party! It would be fun to see your WIPs but it would be fun anytime so enjoy your family and don't worry about when you do it - we will be here cheering you on whenever you have time. Thanks as always, Olivia and happy stitching!

[@dianemadison5955]

Your previous finishes are beautiful. Please share your mocking basket of WIPS. That way I won’t feel so bad about my own basket. 😉 Enjoy Ethan’s graduation and your time with family.

[@theresapetrik1995]

How nice to visit with you today. Your finish of Christmas in My Heart is beautiful. Look forward to seeing you again soon.

[@dianemiller7994]

I would love to see all the projects in your mocking basket of WIPs. Happy graduation to your son and enjoy all the festivities.

[@cindygaudet1390]

Lol just watched C Zook stitchand she is avoiding a huge house. Lol😂 congratulations to Ethan, time lies! Oh yes a mocking basket video would be fun!

[@disorderlystitcher]

Once again a wonderful video, and of course so much enabling. Congratulations on the upcoming graduation! It know it is mixed emotions. Take care of yourself!

[@kristi.schwisow]

Love your Christmas finish. Yes, let’s see your WIPs. I bought the Proverbs 31 pattern also. I will start it when you do. I have lots of quilt kits and patterns, too. Let’s stitch and sew! Happy Graduation and Summer!

[@debbieweigle8420]

Another great video. Love all your previous Patriotic finishes. I would love to see your Mocking Basket of Wips. Congratulations to Ethan on his graduation. Stay strong Mom. Looking forward to June 29 or whenever you pop up.

[@carolinesiskowic2154]

I would love to see your mocking basket of WIPS. Thank you for sharing your previous patriotic finishes!

[@annroberson8890]

Thank you for showing the farmhouse piece. I screenshot it. As a quilter I want to do pieces with quilts. In the 80s I had a book that included quilts in the design and made several of those.

[@martineboughey7542]

👋 I love all you WIPs you are stitching especially your two hawk run Hollow charts. I have both in my stash and was considering starting one of them. Thank you for sharing your past finishes they are all fabulous😍

[@lindaskinner5887]

Beautiful new finish. Thanks for sharing your stitching.

[@cristaljohns1999]

I know you are very busy but just a thought- I would love to see a tour of your garden. Your pics are beautiful and would be lovely to see them in a video sometime. 😊

[@heartlandstitcher9825]

Thanks Olivia for sharing your beautifully stitched and finished projects! Loved seeing all of it. Christmas in my Heart immediately went on the list of must stitch! Congratulations to your son. Enjoy the time with family. Then perhaps some R & R!! See you the end of June!

[@kathyburch9591]

Love all of your patriotic finishes but especially your Queen of Freedom!! Enjoy your time off and congratulations to your son!

[@cherieiduke1723]

Bought my Aida for my first cross stitch in 30 years. I loved your let heaven and nature sing. I got the pattern from primitive Gatherings and I added why I ordered to your KZbin page. I ordered the Aida from FQS and did the same. Mentioned your page on Kimberly floss tube and she said your name

[@donnabrown9210]

The mocking basket of wips would make a great video!

[@deborahcrotty8397]

Olivia, I think your frames and drums are perfect!!

[@sandyevenson-hagen370]

Of course we’d love to see the mocking basket of WIPs, but only if you find time. Preparing for graduation is a big project and also a special time you need to enjoy. As always all of your cross stitching is lovely. Your patriotic project parade is absolutely spectacular! I love every single piece! Have a wonderful time celebrating your son! 👨‍🎓

[@LindaGreen-vm5te]

I love love love your videos and would enjoy seeing your mocking basket of wips.

[@greggsbeckymoore349]

I would definitely watch a mocking basket video! I, also, have some WIPs to make some decisions about so maybe your video can help me. This video was great, I loved seeing your patriotic finishes! Have a good week, Olivia!🙂

[@marla_a]

I really enjoyed seeing all your beautiful projects, thanks for sharing. I particularly loved seeing the progress you have made overtime on the Samplers not forgotten finish. It turned out so beautifully! I would enjoy seeing whst is in your mocking basket of WIPS.

[@kristinbennett4079]

I would love to see what you have in your making basket of WIPS. Last time you did it, it really got you on track to completing everything you loved. But please only do it if you have time, it doesn’t matter if it’s before your next video or in a couple of months time, fit it in where you have time. We are always coming back to watch your videos as we admire your creativity and work.

[@robinchappell1505]

Yes please show us your mocking basket of WIPS! Thanks for your videos.

[@lisaverizzi6272]

I would love to see your MBOW!😂 I have loved that term every since you said it on your floss tube. Thankfully, this year I was able to empty mine, but it’s always fun to see what other people have.

[@patriciachilds7877]

Congratulations to Ethan !

[@trishwells34]

Yes! I would love to see what is in the infamous mocking basket of WIPS 😊 thanks for sharing as always ❤

[@ritah7457]

Yes, to the WIP basket video! I need to rewatch the video to find the chart that the drum was so easy to make. I want to stitch a drum but, fear the construction so very much!

[@crystalflanders4786]

Love your videos. would like to see your mocking basket of wips. Your stitching is beautiful.

[@Craftywithwords]

Congratulations to your family on Ethan's graduation! I hope you have at least a bit of time to catch your breath as all of the events of the next two weeks unfold.

Looking forward to your basket of wips Flosstube ….. I just bought the Proverbs 31 woman from Plum Street. I’m going to have to work on it monotonously on for my Mommas birthday …. I am going to put it on the top of a box like the one on the Pattern is finished on …. She will be 82 …. She will love it 😊

[@susanspratling]

[@frontofficed.burnell-power6288]

I am thinking of renaming my "pit of despair" to "the zone of chaotic hopes and dreams". I am hoping it will change my feelings toward it. Thanks for the video.

[@maureenlopez9266]

Christmas in My Heart is just lovely! Always enjoy seeing your stitching. Hope your family enjoys your son's graduation and spending time together! Congratulations!

[@pampeterson3092]

I enjoyed seeing your previous Patriotic finishes. And, only if you have the time and energy, I would enjoyed watching a WIP parade. Enjoy this time celebrating with your son. Congrats to the Graduate.

[@1856BrickHouse]

I would love to see your WIPS, you have great projects.

[@chrisannstriefel8213]

I would love to see your basket of wips. It’s always so fun to see what you’re working on and it just is good to go through it and see what you want to continue to work on and put more time on. I loved seeing all your fun patriotic things you do such nice work on everything. Hope everything goes well for the graduation party and for your company coming up. Have a fun time and just enjoy.

[@tinamcnamara5167]

Yes, please show us what's in your mocking basket of WIPS! 😁

[@leslierupp73]

Lovely WIPs! Don’t apologize for life getting in the way, congratulations to your son on his graduation!

[@suesew2909]

I love watching your videos always! The blackbird design pillow you showed was out of love of cross stitch. Magazine back in 2011 I believe because I did it and framed it!

[@Kitchensurprise]

Beautiful finish! Have a wonderful time off celebrating with family. A joyous time for sure.

[@teresamc521]

Love your past finishes!! Woof woof to the adorable Freddie!

[@korywood1052]

I love that you showed your previous patriotic finishes because there are usually patterns that I’m not much interested in until I see how someone finished them! Your taste is wonderful so it gives me great ideas! Have fun with your family, congratulations to your son, and I look forward to seeing you at the end of June!

[@suecollura5524]

Yes to seeing your mocking basket of wips, it will make me feel better about mine. 😂 As always, thank you for sharing your beautiful work...especially when life is crazy! I appreciate your time.

[@sharonshergold2372]

Again love seeing a parade of previous stitches.. The Queen of Freedom is truly spectacular and would we like to see what’s in that basket ..OF COURSE !! I’m sure it will help you reassess what should be stitched next and maybe what should be passed on for another stitcher to finish for you. Enjoy all the graduation hubbub, don’t they all just grow up way to fast.

[@patriciawoodford2360]

Always happy to see that you have posted a video. Thanks for showing your patriotic pieces…….your Queen of Freedom is beautiful. Enjoy all the graduation festivities and time with your family. Congratulations to your son!

[@marybethringland3510]

I would love to see the mocking basket of wips if you have time.

[@CraftyBluebonnetDesigns]

Always a good idea to revisit the finishes you’ve stitched and celebrate their completion…even if it was years ago.

[@connieverbeck1110]

Great to see you. I am glad you are taking yourself. I’ll be here whenever you post. Love your sense of humor!! Mocking basket of WIPS is brilliant!! And helped me accept mine!! Take care!!

[@cindyflinchbaugh7155]

I love Patriotic and you have given some great ideas for stitching and finishing. Congratulations to your son and there will be so many great memories made this month. Enjoy it all.

[@stitchinginthestacks]

Loved seeing your patriotic stitching. I’m working on Freedom Saltbox by Pinker n’ Punkin.

[@kankerdoodleb9149]

Olivia I would love to see your mocking basket of WIPS. When I came back to cross stitch 2 years ago you were my inspiration, and I loved the mocking basket of WIPS. I applied that phrase to all my quilt projects, but they still mock me because I cross stitched for 2 years straight!!! Older finishes are great to see again. Happy June stitching.

[@marilynferlitsch2003]

Christmas is gorgeous Olivia, as is Queen of Freedom, a masterpiece. Great WIPS & past finishes, all so pretty. Marilyn

[@kathyn4267]

I love your queen Mirabella. I would like to see your mocking basket of wips whenever you have time. No rush. Enjoy the graduation 🎓. Time does go fast.

[@dianemcclure6884]

Put me on team "heck yeah", we wanna see your mocking basket of WIPS!

[@susantaylor2456]

Loved seeing your past finishes, I remember watching you work on your ladies, so beautiful. Yes, I would like to see your mocking basking of wips.

[@nancywatkins2517]

I would love to see your mocking basket of WIPs.

[@christy428texas]

Bring on the basket of wip’s! I enjoyed the patriotic parade. Enjoy your next couple of weeks & summer!

[@pamelaevans5290]

Loved your patriotic stitching. Yes! I would love to see your wips. Enjoy your time with family and friends while celebrating your son’s graduation.

[@kathywishman6114]

[@lzingaro1949]

Yes Yes would love to see your basket of WIPS. Enjoy your busy visit with family and friends. You have a lovely personality.

[@amandabauer1814]

Enjoy your life! We can wait month! Congratulations on your son graduating!

[@stychaddict4499]

Your finishes are all beautiful Olivia, you have a real talent. When you said you were showing your favourite stitched piece, I expected a sampler! I was in a shop in Auckland last year where there were a few copies of Queen of Freedom. I did purchase one, and gifted it -but should have perhaps bought more to send off to US stitchers that had missed out! If you have time, I'd love to see what's in that basket of mockery. I hope Ethans graduation goes well.

[@sharonpetterson478]

Such a fabulous video. My goodness,you do such beautiful work and we get to enjoy it. Thanks

[@debraculpepper2396]

Hi Olivia this is my first time watching you. I enjoyed you so much. I love what you are stitching. I agree a progress is a progress!! 😂

[@kathycary4798]
