SWM No 7 I'm laughing at myself!

That 2025 new start I was talking about last time turned into something else and I'm having a good giggle about it.

lovely stitching

[@RianneStout]

Love your stitch with me videos. You certainly know how to tell a story. Thank you!

[@TheStitchyWitch]

Thank you so much!

[@DarkXStitch]

Absolutely love your story of how you started your new pattern 🤣🤣

[@TheStitchyWitch]

Story of my life 😂

[@RiversLove]

The corona virus of stitching 😂 I love it, that seems to sum it up perfectly! Now I know how to explain it to my husband so he understands 😂😂❤

[@rachel5288]

I chuckled all the way through this video - all the talking you did with yourself regarding the Happy Village chart. It was great!

[@TheStitchyWitch]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@solarwinds-]

You've enabled yourself? Well, let me help. You love the Happy Village, it spoke to you, you can't get it out of your mind. THAT means, it's time to stitch it up! Enjoy! I know what that's like. I found a GORGEOUS pattern, "Wine and Roses". I can't get it out of my mind. But I've got 2 WIPs going tho. Oh well, it's time to start a 3rd one. Love your SALs. You're so interesting and funny. I love hearing about how you stitch and solve stitching problems and I love hearing about your family outings.

[@dawnbouquot8569]

Ask yourself the question... does it bring you JOY?!! Some days just require a bit of extra joy. I'm so happy you started!! You have me looking around!

[@dianamh5438]

You are so tempting me with Happy Village! I bought it in the HAED sale and thought about starting it with you in 2025, lol. Then I started thinking about making it a Leap Day start and here you are already started!

[@TheStitchyWitch]

It was meant to be I guess. 😊 Start when you are ready!

[@heathertewksburyht]

I didn't feel like stitching and then I saw you posted a swm !! It's like when someone yawns..I have to yawn also!!

[@quinellleftwich1781]

I admire your staying with this to keep up with the stitch count you set for yourself. I knew I was gonna squirrel and go off and do something else. That is why I did so much when the pattern was given to us. Anyway, now I am behind about 9 days or almost 10,0000 stitches. A good deal of the days I didnt stitch was due to being tired from working but I did do some diamond painting as well that contributed. Anyway, I loved the funny stuff you told today. When you said "Im going back to the Mediterranean"...I almost spit my drink out. I can totally relate because I absolutely hate strong winds. But that was super funny. Great video!

[@martinagrimm5836]

90 😊

[@jodeewalker6536]

Yes...you have done 90 stitches. You might have stitched 10 stitches with another color of thread before you decided to do a stitch with me?? Don't know...could be PK messing up, lol. Anyways, good luck figuring it out and really enjoyed stitching with you today Carla...hope you have a great day and the Wind dies down for you guys.

[@TheStitchyWitch]

If PK is messing up I am in deep deep trouble 😂😂

[@jodeewalker6536]

@TheStitchyWitch have you figured it out yet?? Really interested to hear what you discover. Also forgot to tell you that I love the new chart...so beautiful, no wonder you couldn't wait to start it 😉

[@TheStitchyWitch]

@jodeewalker6536 I can't see anything wrong anywhere else, so I assume I marked off the last row of ten on PK without having done them as there is definitely only 90.

[@jodeewalker6536]

@TheStitchyWitch that makes sense. Or you could have marked a row of black and then while stitching,thought you hadn't marked it yet or accidently marked 2 rows,meaning only to mark one row. As long as it lines up you should be good.

[@stitchydutchy2054]

Making good progress. Did you realise that this first part is not 25 %, but about a third of the total pattern? If you can keep the daily stitch count at an average of about 250 XX, you'll have the 3 pages done before the next release. There have to be partial pages somewhere up ahead. You can lower your daily SAL XX then or have some SAL free days to work on your new start

[@TheStitchyWitch]

Hi Joyce! Yes I know its just a percentage of the first, but its also really nice to see those figures in such a short time span! 😂The amount of pages they release in the next three quarters will definitely have to have some partials as there are not enough full pages to release 3 full ones per quarter. At least not in my chart.

[@LidiasLeisurelyStitching]

Earlier in the video you said you had marked off a row that you didn't stitch yet. Did you 'frog' that row on pattern keeper? If so then pattern keeper would say you stitched those ten twice and thus the extra ten in the total count at the end

[@sarahlcc8365]

Maybe you marked off a row on PK that you didn't actually stitch?

[@TheStitchyWitch]

I think i just marked off the bottom row which I hadn't stitched yet. (Hopefully)😂
