    Mak, your video kept me company as the sun rose this morning; thank you for sharing! Your Modern Folk Embroidery pieces are so delicate and beautiful. For the japanese garden, I wonder if hand washing in warm water with a gentle color catcher detergent would help? You had so much progress this month!

    I just found you and LOVE all of your projects! I'm more a yarn crafter than a stitcher (especially since I'm in the last semester of my undergrad) but my goal is to stash down and finish some projects that have been languishing on my needles.

    My New Years resolution has been the same for many years. Do not start a new project for the first 3 months. Work on all kinds of crafts and needle projects for the 3 months. Only start one if really need for a gift. 4th month can start new projects.

    • @stitchinwithmak
      @stitchinwithmak Před 7 měsíci

      It would be so hard for me to wait 3 months to start a project!

    I am so jealous of your tattoo situation. I'd love to have more, and at least half an arm sleeve... but I am cheap. So I haven't gotten one in like 15 years. 😟 Plus I need to modify an already existing one. Your crochet projects are so pretty.

    Really love your projects, Mikaela, and am enjoying your flosstube. I think the kitting up is a hobby in and of itself lol You’ve kitted up some beauties …wish I had the gumption to start a large full coverage but I don’t have a thousand years left to finish one! Your crochet blankets are gorgeous. I’ll have to take a look at Annie’s. See you next month..Happy Thanksgiving! Suzette

    Hi! Great FT! Love your cats! 😻 That one stitch with the opossum is so cute! I 🩷 to stitch and it is very hard to keep the collection of patterns under control. And there is so much online!! It's awesome!! See you next month! 😊

    I have that LotR stamped kit. I found out the artwork is stolen, but aside from that the quality is really horrible. There's little to no detail. It might be worth it asking your coworker if he's still interested, before you invest all your time in finishing it

  • @terrimucitelli9510

    Great video. I enjoyed seeing your first finishes and how you have progressed. Backstitching is also a bane of mine so I try to do it as I go. If I didn’t I probably would never finish some of my larger projects. Looking forward to your next video.

  • @bettyechristain9711
    @bettyechristain9711 Před 10 měsíci

    Enjoyed your video. You did not seem nervous at all. I love the Halloween stitch. I have found that sometimes backstitcg isn't needed. I stand back an look at my stitched project and decide what could use backstitch and what does not need it. Also l generally use the 2strand stitching unless it would look better done differently. Even on Dimensions.

    I'm also working on the Michael's Happy Halloween and I feel your pain! I realized I messed up the n last night when I was almost done with it and I had to frog almost completely it and redo it. It's my first cross stitch project too so it looks a mess 😂

  • @stitch_in_woodstock
    @stitch_in_woodstock Před 10 měsíci

    I have been stitching for more than 40 years, and, frankly, i saw no errors. Your work is beautiful and in my opinion there aree no mistakes in cross stitching, just creative differences. 😁 Your stitching is beautiful, the video was well done -- congratulations! It's wonderful to see new stitchers and what they like to work on. My granddaugher is 21 and I have been teaching her to cross stitch. She's so enthusiastic and happy with what she works on, in spite of a few "creative differences." Looking forward to your next video.

    Love the cats! I have a foster named Bean right now! Another useful time for stitching a pre stamped piece is if you happen to have a glass or two of booze of some type and then you feel like stitching. You can’t mess up the count if it’s pre stamped! Looking forward to your next video!
