    Great flosstube! I started on Aida 40 years ago, and will always be an Aida stitcher! So many nice soft Aida fabrics available now 😊

    Great first Flosstube! Love your stitching and looking forward to your next video. Happy stitching! Finishing your projects would give you your stitching history. Aida stitching is beautiful, and it is where you began. One thread length a day will give you a finish! Good luck with whatever you decide

    What a debut! Thanks for sharing your stitching. I am amazed you get my stitching done with FT work and a toddler. I guess not commuting must help. Your journey from Aida to evenweave and I am sure then to linen is interesting. Don’t buy too much of anything until you finally settle. I have lots of 32 count and now I stitch almost entirely on 36 count with one strand. This year I started the Book of Days but you could just use any month to a view diary. I set easy goals on about 6 of my 9 WIPS, eg one sampler row, half the roof of a house, one Quaker motif, touch a project for one day. I am making much better progress with this method and I know I can achieve these goals and more. With FT work and three teens, I have to be strategic with my stitching if I want finishes. Take care.

    You did awesome for your first flosstube. Congratulations. 👏🏻👏🏻 Oh, I hope you continue to finish your old projects that you have started,they are so pretty. Have one out, to pick up when you need to stitch but you really don't have much time or need to concentrate and use those as fill-in projects for those times. With a little one, you may not have time for a lot of congratulations,but you need to stitch and do the fill in on those old projects. 😊 Happy Stitching!

    Great 1st flosstube ! Hello neighbor. I'm in western Mass. 😊 I have many projects stitched on Aida. When I started 30ish years ago, I bought projects kitted and aida was always the fabric picked for the kit. I like to stitch on evenweave and linen. You can do it, don't be afraid lol. Start small.

  • @pavana-rhymes.with.Madonna

    So glad you started a Flosstube - great job and love your projects! Zippers and plastic bags are great - they’re a part of stitchy life, I believe! Your kit projects (market cart and ornaments) are amazing!! I feel your pain with lack of time. My thoughts on WIPgo and journals and the like are that they are all something else that would take up time that I could just be stitching! Have to be stingy with my time! Looking forward to your next plus tube.🎉❤

    Love all your projects! I enjoy stitching on Aida since it goes pretty fast for me. I would keep doing the projects to complete them since you have put so much time into them already. Well done for your first Flosstube! There is another Flosstuber that just stitches Dimension kits. It's fun to watch her she is very passionate as well! Don't put pressure on yourself for stitching since it is a hobby that we are to love! Thanks for sharing.

    Great first flosstube! Keep on stitching your Aida projects. I’ve been stitching 41 years and have a collection of everything…it’s all part of the journey. I’ve had some of my really old pieces reframed to update them to a more modern look. Look forward to seeing your next video. Anne in Ohio

    It was enjoyable to see all your lovely things. I did Star spangled street a few years ago,when I discovered Primrose Cottage Stitches. I am glad to say I finished it on something I found at HL. I am a seasonal stitcher. My thing is I finish them and don’t always FFO them, and sometimes they never get finished. Oh well…it’s our hobby…must enjoy it. Hope to see more of your channel.

  • @RhubarbPatchStudio
    @RhubarbPatchStudio Před 12 dny

    Hi Shannon! Your first video was great, and many of us like to see stitching whether it’s ironed or not. 😊 Regarding your Aida dilemma, I suggest hanging on to those projects and when your child is older you may like to grab those for traveling around to different kid activities. I enjoy all fabrics but I can only stitch on Aida in the car, and I like to bring them when I know the lighting will be poor or I just want to give my brain a break, etc. I’m subscribed and look forward to your next update. Happy stitching! -Leah Noel

    @karenjones256 Před 16 dny

    Hi Shannon! You have a pleasant personality and seem to like a lot of the same designers I do, so I thoroughly enjoyed your Flosstube #1. I’ve been stitching longer than you’ve been alive and still enjoy Aida, so unless you don’t like stitching on it anymore or don’t like it’s look, there is no reason not to finish. One thing I like about Aida is that everything looks precise. Depending on the linen, it can have slubs and uneven fibers that I do not always like. I do hope you finish your Fall on the Farm piece, to start over on 32 count will give you the same size and look that you already have on 16 count Aida. Having said that, with a full time job and a baby, I do think you should spend your time stitching what you love! And yes, I also love the crinkle of bags and zippers! Hope to see you continue!

    • @StitchingShan
      @StitchingShan  Před 16 dny

    Bravo! Your stitches are beautiful! And such big challenges! WOW! I have never tried aida. I just started last fall, and only have used 40 count. My girls are all grown now, but a wise friend told me to choose my battles in raising them. I think the same goes for cross stitching. Choose the paths that you enjoy.

    Don't give up on your aida pieces. I've been stitching for 40 years & have stitched on pretty much all the fabrics. I still love my pieces that were done on aida even if they aren't full coverage. Pick one of your aida pieces & stitch on it in-between other projects. The end result will be worth it.

  • @darlenedeondesigns2844

    Great wips! I definitely would finish them even if it takes you a long time! Especially the ones that you have so much done on! But I do understand how your preferences change and it makes it harder to go back to them. I received the Dimensions ornaments kit for Christmas this year. I haven’t started them yet but seeing your progress makes me want to right away!

    You came up in my feed, so I thought I would give you a few minutes. :-) I'd recommend WIPCO. This is my first year doing it and I've managed to stay up-to-date and have definitely put stitches in some older wip's. I don't understand when stitchers say they don't want to pressured or under stress. You choose the projects you want to work on and you choose what you want to be a goal for each. I've really enjoyed the year so far--even did an extra project when the free space was randomly chosen--and I've certainly seen progress. :-) Will be looking for your next video.

    • @StitchingShan

    Nice video! I’m glad I found you! You seem so familiar to me, so I thought maybe it’s just because you are my oldest daughters age, and my younger daughter is an insurance claims person… Then it dawned on me that you look and sound like that gal that played Sabrina the teenage witch. I hope you take that as a compliment. Keep going on that fall on the farm on the 16. I stitched it on 16 count beautiful beige and just love it!

I’m a full time nanny to my first and only grandchild born in Oct 2023 so I know how busy you are! I thought I’d be able to do lots of stitching while babysitting her but it’s almost impossible with an active 8 month old. Hope to see you finish all those AIDA projects. I’m an Aida girl because of my eyesight. Stitchey love from Arkansas. 🤩
