Julie, as you were showing your Star Wars piece and mentioning how those are “your” colors, I truly believed you, because the colors in your shirt were the exact same colors in the background of the stitching. Not to mention those same colors are echoed on one of your bookshelves. You’re not kidding! 😂 Great video, thanks!
Thank you for saying the comment about WIPS and the number one might have! I have about the same number of WIPS you have but I think closer to a hundred with 8 banker boxes full of charts i have kitted ready to start. Why? Because if i love a piece and dont get it could be a lost opportunity later. Yes, missed several that i loved, never to find again. I also stitch full cover projects of which i have at least 40. Do you see my craziness? Love it all and did donate over 16 boxes of charts before we moved many years ago. I have been stitching since 1976.
As long as you’re happy, I say live and let live! If that many stresses you out, don’t do it! I have hundreds kitted up - I won’t even bother to count. I also buy and kit up for fear of not getting it later and to be ready when I new start is calling.
Julie, you are such a trip. I also caved to the artsy housewife patreon for the same reasons....and I'm loving the stitch! Yours looks fabulous on the tornado. I bought my first zodiac girl for my daughter's bday start (cancer) and I'm totally blaming/thanking you for that one 😂 all your wips are awesome, and I do love hearing your book talk 😊
Thank you!!! I don’t think I’m going to get to start Cancer before we enter Leo season but I can’t decide if I should wait a whole extra year! I’ll probably sneak in a start somewhere this fall
Oh my gosh Julie, I honestly think we must be physically linked. I’m in Liz’s Patreon and instantly pulled out True Blue to kit up the June chart too when I saw it. Plus I’m doing Artsy Housewife as well. I was resisting that Patreon but when I saw Within A Dream I joined immediately. I’m doing it on Dirt Road. We definitely have similar taste😂
I’m so thankful you sent me a big piece so I had some leftover! 🤣 I still have the little stitcher moon phases kitted up with the rest of the piece of fabric. When are we starting that? 🤣🤣🤣 And the SAL will look fantastic on Dirt Road! I just immediately knew I needed to use Tornado with those colors 😍
Starting AND ending videos is the WORST! I am still one book behind on Ali Hazelwood, but I have it… might need to head over to Books-a-million to grab the new one thought. I hope you enjoy stitching litter critters! ❤❤
Julie!! Greetings from Dallas!! How are you? Always enjoy your videos and am so glad I met and found your channel! I, too, love Carolyn Manning. I have done three of her patterns, have a fourth to do and have many more on my Wishlist with 123 Stitch. What is the name of the piece you’re stitching? I couldn’t make it out. Love your book talk, also! Hope you’re having a wonderful summer and that it’s not too hot or cold! Hot here in Dallas! Hugs! ❤️
Hi, Michael!!! I’m so glad we connected to! The Carolyn Manning I showed is “Mabon” (I really need to figure out how to pronounce it before I show her again 🤣). They are so addictive. I’m also stitching Persephone and I have finished an Aurora small.
I cannot remember whether I got this recommendation from you or just found it on my local library app but I have been listening to The Branded and its sequel The Rising by Australian author Jo Riccioni. Just finishing book 2 and really enjoyed it.
Another recommendation is the Illuminae Files by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff. Finished book 1, just started book 2. Not much in the way of romance and it is science fiction, not fantasy but I am enjoying it.
It’s just a cute little print I picked up at the thrift store. I thought I might use the frame for something someday but actually like the print so I just put it on the shelf
I love seeing all your stitches around you!
Thank you! I’m actually desperately needing to reorganize my bookshelves so I’m going to move around the stitching and give it a fresh look
@@kansascitygirlinacoloradow4285 I understand. Have had to rearrange mine a few times too. But keep the stitching! Looks so nice.

Great video, thanks!
Fox and Rabbit are coming to the states in September for the Ga-Ron Stitchery retreat. There are open spots for the weekend they’ll be there. Sign up!
I would love to, but I have some obligations in September. 😭
I always message my daughter when you have book talk. She's not a stitcher but she's a reader. And she loves your book talk.😊
Awwwww ❤️❤️❤️ I’m trying to do better about actually reading those new release purchases in a timely manner, sprinkled with some oldies
I started Sarah and Maryam's Halloween patterns! Halloween stitching is just so fun. It really is a good issue.
I want to stitch so many things in this issue, but those two are top of the list!
That artsy housewife pattern 😍🤩 Gah. Want.
No joke, that SW piece is coming along quickly.
That needlebook is adorable!
Enjoyed the video very much. Thank you for sharing, Julie. ❤
Great to catch up. I have Mabon and haven't started it yet. Tornado from Fox and Rabbit is gorgeous. Have fun on your next camping adventure 😊
❤️❤️❤️ I need to practice saying Mabon before I ever show that piece again 🤣🤣🤣
@@kansascitygirlinacoloradow4285 😆😆😆
Your book talks are always delightful! I also am enticed to pick something up if others hate it! 😂
I love to see what all the fuss is about! And also I love a good “hate read” 🤣

It’s always a blast watching you ❤

I haven’t heard of this series. Another to add to the list 🤣

But, but ... I fell victim ... LOL. Star Wars is looking amazing!
🤣
Hi Julie! Love your videos. I was wondering if you could tell me the name of the pattern behind you? It’s a girl sitting on a sewing machine. Thanks!
I love the little piece of the moon with stars around it! Is it a stitched piece, and where can I find it?
It’s just a cute little print I picked up at the thrift store. I thought I might use the frame for something someday but actually like the print so I just put it on the shelf
