the Saltbox Stitcher [Episode 106] "My Christmas Stitching"

[@joannesmith719]

I LOVE your opening scene with the Manger and Bible verse. The true meaning of Christmas!! Have a blessed christmas.

[@saltboxstitcher]

Thank you! You too!

[@cherman3952]

Yes, to everything you said!

[@nature4urhealth]

You bring me so much joy! Merry Christmas to you, Carol, from another Carol. And God bless you.

[@marilynr2738]

Have a very Merry Christmas with your family. Good health and happiness in 2024.❤

[@lindaholland683]

Merry Christmas! My coworker uses a candle warmer to keep her coffee hot. I thought it was a great idea and wanted to pass it along. Beautiful finishes and starts. I could hear in the background, it sounded like a spoon hitting the side of a bowl and I thought of my husband eating ice cream. My dad did the same thing when he ate ice cream and always hit the side of the bowl with the spoon. It might not have even been that but brought a fond memory back.

[@dorissanders1950]

Loved all these beautiful stitches. So much to stitch! We are never bored. Merry Christmas to you and your family. Enjoy all you days.

[@saltboxstitcher]

Thank you! You too!

[@leonacampbell4367]

Carol, I enjoyed seeing your Christmas needlework. Lots of eye candy! I love that you dated your piece after Isaac Watts, very fitting. That pattern is on my wish list and I will put I.W. On it. God the Father gave me his greatest gift…Jesus King of Kings and Lord of Lords!

[@saltboxstitcher]

Amen and amen!!! He is the gift of Christmas!

[@charj57]

Heaven and Nature Sing looks wonderful!!! Great job. I love the 1719 change and the glimpse into the history of the carol/poem.

[@saltboxstitcher]

Thank you so much! I was a little sad to finish that one as it was so fun!

[@teresajenningsoldstoneycreek]

Carol, you have such a wonderful collection of Christmas finishes! I love absolutely everything. I especially like the simplicity of your finishes. Not too busy!🫢

[@saltboxstitcher]

Thank you so much!

[@catherinelaurent5219]

Its always such a pleasure to see you and your husband, he is a hoot and you are very talented with needle and thread. I have many pillows without trim, some do not need trim, yours are lovely. Thank-you for sharing all your stitching and gifts. Here we are in the forties, its way above the normal temps no snow. It is unusual for Minnesota. I really look forward to seeing your videos. Merry Blessed Christmas to you and your family. 🎄🎄

[@saltboxstitcher]

Thank you! You too!

[@theresahubbard5165]

Wonderful opening to this video! As I watch you hold up patterns and then hold up the stitched piece, I still marvel at how beautiful everything is when stitched. Thanks for making all the videos this year. It must be a ton of work getting ready to film, editing, and putting everything away after filming. Merry Christmas to you, your husband, and family. Blessings to you and yours. ❤️

[@saltboxstitcher]

Oh thank you so much!!! The wonderful sweet comments make it all worth it!!!

Too funny - I’m presently stitching Village of HRH but I arranged mine into 3 rows of 4 blocks. I’m a monogamous stitcher- taking breaks only to stitch the 1/1 Bristol pendants- and can’t tell you how anxious I am to be done with this!! LOL

Thank you Carol for all the videos you made in 2023. Happy Christmas.

[@barbarahouser]

Hey Carol, I always look forward to your videos and miss you when you're not there every other week. For some reason, I didn't get a notification for this episode, but stumbled across you in my feed and immediately stopped in my tracks to watch. I reset my Notification Bell & hope that doesn't happen again..lol. Your WiPs are wonderful & I think Gathering the Greens will be stunning on the Gray fabric; please don't give up on it yet. I have mine kitted and I think it will be my Christmas Day start. Or...maybe Heaven & Nature Sing, which has been on my radar for months now! I hope you and your sweet hubby have a Blessed Christmas and that we get to visit again before the New Year. xoxoxo by the way, I loved the intro by your TechnoEditor....the manger with the scripture, "the Word became flesh.." was a beautiful reminder of the reason for this season and all we have for which to return thanks & Glory to our newborn KING!

[@saltboxstitcher]

Thanks so much!!! Yes thank God He came on a rescue mission for each of us!!! Merry Christmas!!!

[@saltboxstitcher]

Thank you! I’m almost afraid to do a WIP parade!!! It might be shocking!!!! Lol

[@vickipaquette406]

I’m stitching the same “Gathering of the greens” kit from Country Sampler. Glad I am not the only one who is having a hard time with the colors. I keep stitching away but have thought about putting it away but you have given me incentive to carry on😁. I know it will be beautiful when done.
