Thank you! Until the next stitch...
The universe obviously wants more progress on lily of the woods. She looks amazing as does all your stitchy projects.
Love your idea for the mill hill designs.
Have a great rest of your week!
You're so right! WIPGO and the Universe have spoken haha. Appreciate you stopping by again and thanks for the support! Happy stitching!
I love all your stitching. So inspiring. Especially Lily of the Woods. Squirrelly is so adorable. You are a wonderful human❤
Aww thank you so much! I'm glad you're enjoying the projects and catching up with me :). Happy stitching!
Love Winston. He is so precious! All your projects are just wonderful but Lily is just beautiful. Please keep the video's coming. Also, I love to hear about your running as well. House
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed Winston and the update on Lilly! Stay tuned as you'll hopefully see a lot more of her soon! Appreciate your support :)
Liked Winston's smile! You're an ambitious stitcher 😊
Aww thank you. He was happy to get some camera time I think haha. Hopefully I've not been too ambitious!
Love your videos, Andrew. You are always on in my HOUSE! Love your projects and hearing about your running. Please Lee them coming!
Aww thank you so much for your kind words! Glad you're enjoying the channel and the progress! Happy stitching!
As a millennial the concert in NJ sounds epic!! 😂 I hadn’t heard about that, I can’t believe it was free too! Love all your projects!! ♥️
I couldn't believe it was free either, but it was such a fun time going down memory lane :). Glad you enjoyed the updates!
That squirrel is too cute! I need that in my life❤
He was such a fun little stitch! Glad you enjoyed it as well :)
Winston us sohandsome, he's such a cutie pie. I enjoy your visits so much, calming, stitching, running updates. Enjoy your running and stitching.❤
Thank you! 😊. I'm glad you enjoy the updates and that Winston could make an appearance :). Happy stitching!
It’s better up rather than down. Cute ornament. One over one looks good on her face look forward to seeing the finish. Enjoyed seeing your WIPS. Love your shirt and watch strap. House. Happy stitching
Thanks so much! Appreciate you stopping by! :). Happy stitching!
Great job on your progress.
I would LOVE that Washington pattern. Nothing like a big beautiful White HOUSE🏠🇺🇸
Thank you so much! It is a gorgeous house right?!
Oh my.....Lily is GORGEOUS! Can't wait to see it finished 😍
Thank you! 😊. She will definitely get some solid progress this month!
Lovely projects. Thank you for sharing. Love your doggie Winston 🐶
Thank you so much! Winston was happy to make an appearance ha. Happy stitching!
Thank you for the video. I love how fast your work takes shape and so beautiful too. My mom and I used to love to go look at a house on our travels because of all the different designs we would see. There was a castle built up by her home, but there are a lot more beautiful and different ones than that. Thank you for sharing your lovely work.
Glad you enjoyed this week's update! Thanks for stopping by and your support :). Happy stitching!
I never tire of seeing the little Squirrely. I so enjoyed stitching that one myself, and it's a joy to see someone else with it. I have to say, I am really enjoying seeing your Pixel Dragons SAL project. Such a great color scheme on that one. And every time I see your Long Dogs project, I'm left with the feeling I will probably have one of those in my future at some point. Always such a joy catching up and hearing about your projects and running journey. Been a while since I've been to a concert (last one was Trans-Siberian Orchestra), but that concert sounds fun. Not really my music style, but such a fun atmosphere.
Awesome that you also stitched Squirrely and you're right, it's such an enjoyable stitch! Can't wait for autumn to put him up :). I do love the Pixel Dragon stitch. It's amazing to see the progress with just a small amount of time each day. I highly recommend a Long Dog piece... I'm enjoying SAGA very much! Ooh I bet the Trans-Siberian Orchestra concert was great! Happy stitching.
Would u believe, that house pattern is on my wish list to stitch this year! I love your stitching - u r a real inspiration to me - thank u so much for sharing!
Aww thank you so much for the kind words! I do love sharing this hobby with all of you! So cool that pattern was one you already had on your list! Best of luck and happy stitching!!
Winston is so darn cute! Loved seeing all your progress. Always great to spend time with you. Stay cool and hydrated. ❤❤
Thank you Sarah! Winston was happy to make an appearance ha. Happy stitching!
Lily of the Woods is coming along really good, well done you. 🎉
Thank you so much! She's been a pleasure to stitch and I'm excited she'll be even more of a focus!
Hiya! Love seeing your progress. Your doing great! My daughter worked at Mount Vernon when she first got out college and I love to stitch her the house that George built! Take care
Thank you so much! Really appreciate your kind words! Oh that would be a lovely stitch for her. Stay tuned!
Always so happy to see your notification come up that you have a new video. Your work is so beautiful. House
Aww thank you very much. I'm glad you enjoyed this one as well! Happy stitching!
So glad that Lily will get alot more work on her, looking forward to when you start beading, since never did that. She will look amazing hanging in your house when she is finished. Happy Stitching
THank you so much! I'm also excited for Lilly and to get some decent progress :). Hope I can keep up with it all! ha
Great video! I always smile when I see you have a new FlossTube. Winston is so cute. Looks like he likes being on camera. Your Fairy of The Woods is looking beautiful. I also love your Pixel Dragons, so cute❤❤. We are in North Carolina visiting 2 of our boys. Our one son bought a house so we were able to see it. Looking forward to your next FlossTube ❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much :). I'm glad you've been enjoying them! Winston definitely liked the attention hahaha. Happy stitching and thanks for stopping by!
Hi Andrew
I like your delivery when you present your pieces of-work.
Today is National embroidery day maybe cross stitch should be considered also.
Loved seeing Winston smiling at the camera.
Aww thank you so much! I do still get nervous to film, but I'm glad it comes across ok :). I wonder if there is a national cross stitch day! Winston was happy to make an appearance ha. Happy stitching!
Ohhh I love that wipgo tells you to (almost) finish Lily of the woods haha! Her wings are already so beautiful, can't wait for the beads to let her shine even more. Also excited that you start the reindeers, they are definitely on my wishlist 😍 (And there is always room for a beautiful white house) If you ever want to dedicate a whole video to Winston, I'm here for all his cuteness haha! ❤
haha right?! I was like... ok I guess WIPGO made the call haha. I'm also excited to get the reindeer started! I'll see how I can incorporate Winston in more :). Happy stitching!
You gotta love a big white house! Fun to see how much progress you are making on all your pieces.
Thank you so much!!
Thanks, Andrew. Great job on all of your pieces ❤
Thank you so much! Appreciate you stopping by!
Ummmm, yeah Squirrly is perfection! 😊
So cute right?! Thanks Jennifer!! Can't wait to have him displayed this fall :)
The squirrel is so cute - love it. And your plans for July include some amazing projects. I will be really looking forward to seeing your progress on them.
Thank you Laura! I had a lot of fun stitching the squirrel and am so excited for him to go up this fall :). July is going to be busy, but I'm excited too! Happy stitching!
Congratulations on both your runs... always an inspiration! Lilly is so beautiful....and super excited she gets 5k stitched this month. Also love your Squirrelly finish....so cute. The white house on Martha Washington is exquisite.
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed this update :). Happy stitching!
Looking forward to when you start ‘Champions’. I’ll join you.
Enjoying your videos!
Thanks so much! Glad you're enjoying the updates!
Hi Andrew, oh my, your lily of the woods is absolutely gorgeous!! I've never done a mill hill. It looks interesting. The squirrel is super cute.
Thank you so much! Lilly has been so much fun to see her come together! Definitely recomend giving Mill Hill kits a try as they are small but incorporate a lot of different things like beads/treasures/backstitch. And they are so cute!
I am super excited for you about Lily. My guess is definitely a finish by August! Lots of great stitching Andrew and hi to Winston!
Winston says hi! Yes I'm excited for Lilly too! It's exciting to feel like I'm getting close!
Great video. I always love seeing your projects. Lily of the Woods is beautiful! The backstitching looks so good on her wings and adds so much to the project. I look forward to seeing your finish. Winston is so darn cute! Have a wonderful July. House
Thank you so much! I'm glad you're enjoying the projects I've got! Happy Winston could make an appearance haha. Happy stitching!
Great video. Love seeing your progress on wips. Take care. ❤❤😊
Thank you so much! Happy you stopped by to catch up on my updates! Happy stitching!
Oh my gosh Lily is a-maz-ing!!! So excited to see the progress you make. Great video, Andrew, you did NOT seem scattered at all! Stay cool and hydrated (Winston, too!!) and see you again soon!
Aww thank you so much! Glad I didn't come across as too scattered haha. Yes definitely need to stay cool and hydrated in this heat! Happy stitching!!
Omg, I could CRY! I forgot about BBMak! I listened to them all the time when I was 13. Thank you for mentioning it. 😭 Going to go listen now!!
Right?! It was SO much fun to hear those songs I used to listen to as a kid haha. They still had great harmonies in concert!
Lily is just beautiful! Love the squirrel as well. House
Thank you so much!
So good to see you, I honestly don’t know how you run in this heat, I’d be whining like crazy! I’d ask for a mess of popsicles 😂. Thanks for sharing your stitching. Have a great two week and be well
Thanks so much! Well.. I never said I didn't whine about the running in the heat ha. My boyfriend probably hears me complain about the humidity way to much hahaha! Happy you stopped by for the update and happy stitching!
Love all of your projects. You inspire me to get my reindeer out as well. house.
Oh awesome! Which reindeer will you be working on? Feel free to share or tag me if you post any progress, I'd love to see!
That little squirrel is just too cute 😍😍😍 And I love your display idea to have seasonal pieces with magnets on the back to swap into a frame; that will look great! Your July plans of Lilly, Gaia and Donner sounds wonderful and I bet you will catch me up on Gaia as I don't think I'll get to work on her in July. You might not catch up to Emma though...and neither will I 😂
Thank you!! I'll keep you posted on how the magnet idea works out! Yeah... Emma is doing so great! I love watching her progress! I think she will beat us to the finish haha. Happy stitching :)
House - love seeing the progression on your WIP’s!
Thank you so much!! Happy stitching!
House. Andrew, I just love your floss tubes. I look forward to watching you every two weeks. Your work is exquisite. I just love Lily.❤
Thank you so much! That's very kind of you to say :). I'm so happy I get to share this hobby with you all! Happy stitching!
Enjoyed seeing your projects. Lovely stitching each one. Thank you for letting Winston share some time in this video. He is adorable and precious. Stitching a house can be a fun project.❤
Thank you so much! Winston loved the attention haha. Happy stitching!
Loved seeing Winston. I never get tired of seeing your progress. I love following along with your projects. Great video! 💕 Thank you! 💕
Thank you so much! I'm glad you're enjoying seeing the progress each week :). Happy stitching!
Andrew, Winston is precious! I love all of your projects and how you describe them. I can't wait to see the finish of Lily in the Woods, it's going to be spectacular. I am working on stitching old Debbie Patrick "Victorians Across America" houses and would love to stitch Martha Washington's house too. Have a great couple of weeks...
Thank you so much! Definitely stay tuned and you'll see more updates on Lilly! Sounds like the pattern would be a great addition for you! Happy stitching!
Congratulations on your races! We’ve had brutal heat recently also in NE Ohio. Beautiful wips and I really look forward to seeing your July projects. Lily is gorgeous!
Thank you so much! Yes it's gotten really humid here in NY too which makes it much tougher! Appreciate you stopping by to catch up with me! Happy stitching!
Love all of your WIPS - You are making great progress on them. They are beautiful.
Happy 4th of July to both of you. Have A Safe Enjoyable 4th.
Take Care & Happy Stitching
❤️🤗🧵🪡🧵✂️❤️
Thank you so much and Happy 4th to you as well! I hope you get some fun celebrations and relaxing in :). Happy stitching!
Winston in so cute!! Congrats on finishing your recent two races in the heat !! It’s been really hot and humid here in northeast Ohio as well. Today is another one of those days - feels like 96 and very humid. The a/c is on and it’s a great day to stay in the house to stitch! Enjoy the 4th and Happy Stitching !
Winston was glad to make an appearance! Thanks so much. Your weather sounds exactly like what we had and what is likely coming our way ha. But definitely a good day to stay inside and stitch! Happy 4th of July to you as well!
The fairy of the woods is coming along beautifully, I am glad it is both this month's number so we can all see it finished soon.
Thank you so much! I'm excited to inch closer to that finish as well!
I love seeing your art every couple of weeks, you do wonderful work! I have yet to stitch a patriotic pattern and this house would be just perfect!
Thank you so much! I'm glad you're enjoying the updates! It is a cute patriotic piece :)
Love your Flosstube. Such beautiful stitches. House
Thank you! 😊. I really appreciate that and I'm glad you're enjoying the updates!
The concerts sounded like fun. Growing up in Queens I went to a lot of free concerts every summer in Central Park. Mill Hill Kits are fun. I’ve done many over the years. I look forward to seeing that fairy piece finished. It will be exquisite with all those beads. Happy Stitching.
I love the free concerts in the park! It's not a summer without them ha. I do enjoy a Mill Hill kit. It's the perfect small for me with a variety of stitching and beads! Hopefully I make some good progress on Lilly, but definitely stay tuned for her updates! Thanks for stopping by!
Now I’m looking for mill hill kits. 😂 great job on the Mira. She’s beautiful
At
hahaha! be careful... they can be a slippery slope! But they really are a lovely small project to work on. I really enjoy them! Thanks so much and happy stitching!
@@therunnerstitcher I got 8 in my cart on 123 stitch 🤣
Hi Andrew! Your Lily of the Woods is so beautiful!! 👏🏻 the reindeer will look very nice on that blue fabric. The South Western kit looks interesting. Should be fun stitching it! Have a great week ahead.cheers 👋🧑🏻🦰🇨🇦🌺
Thank you so much for the kind words! So many good things to be stitching! :). Have a great week as well and happy stitching!
Love your finish and your progress on your wips. Happy stitching!
Thank you so much! Appreciate that :)
Omg Ryan Cabrera is still performing? As a kid I remember listening to him.
Love to see Lilly she looks so good! I'm sensing a Mirabilia finish in August!
You got a lot of work to do for July. Looking forward to seeing the progress!
He is!! Can you believe it? ha. I listened to him as a teen and it was bizarre seeing him in concert for the first time now ha. Ooh an August finish would be fun (maybe I should aim for a birthday finish ha). Busy Busy july, so I'll see how far I get!
Your Lily of the Woods is just gorgeous! House
Aww thank you so much!!
Hi Andrew...thanks for all the great stitching you shared...Helen D. Is stitching your NC Reindeers...she also is great at finishing...best wishes ❤❤
Happy to share this wonderful hobby with you! I love Helen D, but didn't realize she was also stitching the reindeer! I'll have to check out some of her finishes!
Beautiful WIPS 😍
Thank you so much!
Wow, your Lily of the Woods looks amazing. You accomplish so much. Love your little squirrel 🐿️. So sweet.
I’m not a runner but my daughter and her husband are. I’m in charge of childcare during the races😂. I will recommend The Blue Ridge Marathon in Roanoke, VA for a possible run. You don’t have to do the whole marathon, they offer lots of races. It’s advertised as the toughest road race…very hilly.
Thank you so much! It's been so much fun watching Lilly progress! Oh childcare is very important for runners so that's great you get to do that for your daughter! I'll have to check that one out! Happy stitching!
You are doing incredible on Lily of the Woods. My first Mirabilia was last June and it is not even close to a finish. In my defence, I have started four other ones and two of those are smaller and close to a finish. Happy stitching.
Thank you so much! haha it's not a race, I've just made Lilly a focus piece for the year and am enjoying her so much! There's many more I want to start though haha. Happy stitching!!
Andrew, happy to see Winston. Does he have a permanent smile? I would like to hear your stitching story. I do not know if you have talked about it, but I am sure others would like to know as well. How or why did you get into cross-stitch? SAGA looks beautiful. I really like the thread color. I know you enjoy stitching on Lily of the Woods, but it's going to be a lot. Hopefully, you don't get bored. A nice house.
Winston is usually smiling with his little overbite ha. I did share a little bit about my stitching journey in my first video and there's a video with my mom where we talk about it a bit more, but I could try to do a quick recap soon :). Thanks for stopping by to catch up with me! Happy stitching!
Such great projects, just love the dragon one!
Thank you so much! I do love the pixel dragon piece :)
Your Lily of the Woods is just gorgeous!!! Those patterns intimidate me, I have a couple of Nora Corbett’s smaller fairy pattern to start with before I venture to one of those. Look forward to seeing the progress after this month. House.
Thank you so much! They can be intimidating and there's a lot to them, but it's just one stitch at a time. I've really enjoyed the process so far!
Love the squirrel and I am working on Christmas Elf, a Nora Corbet pattern.
Thank you! I didn't realize Nora had done a Christmas Elf, but you better believe I'm going to be looking it up! haha. Happy stitching!
@@therunnerstitcher This pattern does not use DMC threads, but you can get a conversion chart. If you want I can tell you which ones I used when you make your purchase. 🙂
awesome thank you!
Enjoy seeing all your projects. House
Thank you so much!!
House. enjoyed your video. Happy stitching!
Thank you so much!
What a cute squirrel!!! U have made such amazing progress on all ur projects...they look AMAZING!!!
So cool! I did that southwest dimensions for my mom many years ago...I had never "couched" my stitches before, and boy did that black circle come out super wonky 😂😂 if I knew then what I know now 🤷♀️ lololol...but I had glued it in a frame (another rookie mistake haha) so it's forever preserved and a constant cautionary tale whenever I see it at my mom's 😂
Can't wait to see how far u get w Lily!!! Happy stitching Andrew 🐈⬛🪡❤️
Thank you so much! I was very pleased with the squirrel :). Oh that's amazing that you've stitched the Southwest dimensions kit before! I might have to come to you for tips on couching because I've never done that either ha! Happy stitching to you as well!
@therunnerstitcher 😂😂 idk Andrew, mine is REALLY bad 😂😂😂 I gotta get my mom to take a pic of it and send it to me and I can figure out a way to show u so u can see I am NOT the person to ask 😜😜 lololololol❤️❤️
lol :)
Love your work the house is a nice pattern
Thank you! 😊
Great to see your progress 😊I love the House
Thank you!! 😊
House. Your WIPs are so beautiful! I've been wanting to get the Christmas Couriers, but beads scare me. Maybe I'll try it. Seeing your pieces has inspired me. I don't have any pretty ladies but I do have a pretty man. I'm going to try to start him in August. Great job on your races. In the past I've done a couple 5k's. I'm more of a hiker now since a 10 year old injury makes it hard to run. I've been very slowly trying to get back into running but it's a struggle. I look forward to your next video. 😊
Thank you so much! Beads can be intimidating, but I've found it to be much easier than I expected. I started beading with a Mill Hill kit which was a good one to learn from. Ooh what fancy man do you have?! Hiking is also a great way to get out there and exercise! I don't have many hiking spots nearby, but I always enjoy it when I get to! happy stitching!
Lily is looking amazing! I bet you'll finish her this month.
Thank you so much! It's a big challenge, but I should at least get close ha :). Thanks for catching up!
Hi hun. Always love yr channel. Gorgeous projects. Squirrelly is so cute. Turned out fantastic. I must do a mill hill sometimes in the future. Yr saga and lily of the woods are amazing. Well done with yr races. I'm still struggling with sciatica. Have to have MRI now and physio so hopefully by the end of July It might get back to running again 🤞I'm getting more stitches in though while staying in the house more. Lovely to catch up with you. Take care. Xx
Thank you so much! I'm glad you're enjoying the updates :). I'm sorry to hear your sciatica is still giving you trouble. I hope physio will help and you can get back to it soon! More stitching time is never a bad thing though :). Thanks for stopping by and take care!!
Nice progress. Loved seeing Winston. My Saga is only up to 5%. I love working on it but I love a lot of my projects and try to work on the ones that meet prompts in Facebook groups I'm in. While you resisted The Deadly Aquarium, I ended up caving and bought it. I've just finished kitting it up and hope to start it this month. I also want to start a chart from Stitchman Darcy and the Jardin Prive Olympic gnomes. I am going to try running again this weekend. The plantar fascitis is almost completely gone. Going to start slow and see how it goes. Take care.
Thank you so much! SAGA is such a huge piece that even 5% is a great milestone! That's exciting you'll be starting Deadly Aquarium! I love all the parts that have been released. Glad to hear your plantar fascitis is better! I hope you're able to get back out and enjoy a run :). Happy stitching!
Enjoy your videos. House, please.
Thank you!
❤❤❤
Thanks for stopping by Samantha! I totally forgot to mention you when talking about the deer and I"m SO sorry! It was in my notes and I just left it out :(. I'll be sure to mention you next time and share how much you helped me in preparing for the reindeer!
@@therunnerstitcher Hi Andrew, I enjoyed your update!! Lilly of the woods is on my wish list, my favourite part about the design is her wings!! They are very unique compared to the other fairies. A lot of work however, so worth it. I love your pancake 🥞 stitch !!! Today while watching I was stitching on Dancer and made great progress. I look forward to seeing your start on Donner! See you in a few weeks and happy stitching!!
That's so exciting that you were working on Dancer! I'm making my start on Donner this week :). Thanks for watching and catching up! Happy stitching
I dint think I’ve missed one of your videos but did you ever say how your friend liked your “Winston” stitch?
You didn't miss any :). Thanks for asking though! His birthday is in September so thats when I will be giving it to him! Stay tuned and I'll be sure to share :)
May I ask what brand of scroll frame you are using for the mermaid? It looks fairly sturdy.
I use Arabeska and you can find them on Amazon. I really like them so far!
@@therunnerstitcher Thanks-both for the info and the quick reply! I had been looking at those on Amazon and thought that might be what you’re using. Just ordered! I’m tired of smashing stitches and wrinkling fabric on larger projects. Hope this is a good solution. Thanks for the work that you put into your floss tube. It’s much appreciated!
