Such a beautiful baby boy! Amira as well! Love love love her dress! So happy and thankful he is healthy and growing perfectly! Congrats to you and your family! I wish you guys all the best vibes to come!
Yes - I think it is a ship!! Good call! I've been wondering what that was the entire time I've been stitching on that piece - LOL! Love your color choice - so rich and beautiful! The sweater for your neighbor's daughter is beautiful! Love that color! I would totally wear a sweater in that color. Happy Stitching!
So someone commented and let me know what it is LOL. It’s a heraldic eagle. I would have NEVER guessed it looks like a Viking ship or something to me 😆😆💗. Thank you for watching and spending time with me!
This is the first of your videos I've watched. I'm impressed with your beautiful stitching and excited to explore your channel. I'm hoping you've recorded a bit about those lovely books in your background! Thank you, I enjoyed your content.
Wow! Your stitching and knitting are absolutely beautiful. I've have been knitting for at least 20 years and I can't imagine knitting that colorwork sweater. It is so cool looking, but I don't know how you are able to follow the pattern. You are very talented! I love summer and I'm looking forward to school break, my daughter is 11 and I love the slow not busy days of summer. I'm still able to mostly work from home and it's such a gift to be able to not have to drive anywhere or have after work/school commitments. You are so right and that time goes by so fast! It's great when you can do life at a slower pace. That is why I love summer the most!
ManningMay. I am working on the Hummingbird Garden from Just Cross Stitching. I also bought 4 of her patterns (before I realized that the magazine pattern was by her). Spring/summer plans - I am looking forward to the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival in May and going out on the Chesapeake on our small motorboat. Enjoy the time you have left at home before you return to work and then I hope you feel good about getting back to work also.
Yayyyy the hummingbird pattern is so pretty! She has so many good ones it’s hard to pick the colors are all so amazing. I am so jealous that you’re going to Maryland sheep and wool. That sounds like it’s suck a fun yarn festival. I hope you have the best time! I wish I had more time with at home for sure. Sad to be going back to work but that’s life so I’m trying to look forward to having a little break every day and find the good in it.
Hi Megan Love your WIPS - They are so pretty. The Colors are just beautiful. I can’t see anything beyond 32 Count and it has to be white fabric so don’t feel bad about struggling to see 40 Count. I am glad that you and your family had a Good Easter. I did too. I got to hang out with my Pastor and his wife and his Mom for the entire day. It was a great day. Glad that your Baby Boy is doing good. He is so cute and adorable. Of Course Amira is so cute and adorable as well. Her Easter Dress is so so pretty. I am not sure what I am most excited for. Right now we are getting lots of Rain. Take Care & Happy Stitching ❤️🤗🙏🧵🦯🧵❤️
@@TheSeattleStitcher - Thank You Megan - it was rough yesterday - Monday and not so good this morning but my afternoon today is so peaceful and quiet and calm. I am so thankful. I love my Peace and Quiet. I always have all of my life. I am stitching a little bit more now too which helps quite a bit.
Im so honored 🥹 thank you ✨ Hello From Liz Mathews pattern with pears I added to my cart same second I saw your WIP! I’m doing no buy right now but as soon as my challenge over I’m getting it 😀
I am obsessed with your no buy idea how you have to sell something. Thats so smart!! I wouldn’t have thought of that but what a good motivator lol. Hope you get a few more subscribers! I’m absolutely loving your flosstube, you just seem beautiful inside and out. 💗💗💗
Aren’t those hoops just amazing! Brijin got me hooked I actually want to order more. Not that I need more projects going at once LOL but it is nice to have a few. 🤭 Thank you!! I wish everyone who said they wanted to learn to knit that I could just teach everyone 😆. It’s such a fun hobby! I love it.
I am joying the Carolyn Manning SAL this year, Rockhound is what I will be stitching on, it is different and so pretty. Love your projects! Happy birthday 🎉
Oh my yes…it can be hard to see the threads in 40 count linen so 20 count Aida is the answer. It is so much easier and Fiber on a Whim has lovely colour options.
I was just thinking about this the other day. “Wow, I really have everything I’ve ever dreamed of”. Life is so precious and it goes by so fast. My husband and will also be together 9 years this August, and our first wedding anniversary is coming up in May.
Thanks for sharing, nice projects you are working on. About the border of your MFE-chart: I think you should frog till the middle of it, or some stitches more, and make that motive in the middle some stitches longer, or make an adaptation there, because on the chart there is a center int he middle motive that's right under the middle of a motive on the border. A total frog would be a waste of time! Wish you success!
Happy Birthday ❤. Your stitches are inspiring whatever count you do❤. Beautiful family❤. I'm excited for all the spring birds outside and stitching birds inside😂
Happy early birthday! ❤ I’ve been catching up on my floss tube today and stitching on some charts that just needed a little bit to finish them. The other day I went a little crazy planning my next three months of what I hoped to stitch on. 🫣🫣🥴 But a lot are small 3x4” charts that won’t hopefully take forever haha. My husband and I have been together going on 17 years this august and will be married for 14 July 1. When people ask we have to stop and think/do that math because it definitely doesn’t feel like it’s been that long. We pretty much started dating the year he graduated hs(I’m a year older 😂). Off to watch your video from the other day! ❤
I was so happy to see this new video and hear you and family are doing well. Your kids are so very adorable! Really enjoyed your stitching and knitting. On your last big project l think l would continue on with the border as you started iy. It is so very pretty and the clove color floss is so nice! I hope that all continues well for you in the future. You are one of my favorite floss tube videos l look forward to seeing!!
Thank you so much for your encouragement and kindness, Betty. I hope you had a great Easter and thanks for spending some of your precious time with me! 💗💗💗
Love seeing all the projects. That unicorn chart is a beast! 😅 So happy to hear Malachi is doing well. 🫶 I actually had trouble with my vision more while nursing. But it eventually came back to normal. Happy birthday! 🎉
Oh man I wonder if that’s my problem. That nursing is messing with my eyes. It’s been so hard! I can’t wait to go back to my normal eyes even if they aren’t great it’s better than this. lol!
We are spending a week at a family camp near Yosemite in June and I am beyond excited….! I’m picturing dirty dancing except without the drama and with little kids? 😂. San Francisco doesn’t get that real “summer” feeling so I’m really looking forward to this. Especially as it will be our last trip as a family of 3 🤰
You are so cute with your excitement over your progress! I must admit that I can’t get excited over your unicorn project but it only matters if you like it. 😊. Regarding your vision, it is normal to have changes but I would suggest that you see your eye doctor before you go back to work. You don’t want to get headaches from eye strain due to not having the right glasses when you have to work all day. It would be worth it to pay for an extra pair of glasses to avoid that kind of thing. Knitting - love your colorwork sweater! The baby sweater for your neighbor is adorable. I have not tried a chainette yarn myself but I know others who have used it and haven’t heard bad things. Birthdays! Yours is the 28th and mine is the 27th! I hope you enjoy your day. 🎉🎂🌸🌷
I started the 12 Days last year and did one day per month. I finished day 9 in September. (Cuz that’s all she (Liz Mathews) had out. Finally got Day 10 a couple weeks ago and I’m wondering if you’ve heard when Day 11 & 12 are coming out. (I also wish I were a designer cuz I would have changed around Day 8, maids of milking? I would have switched out the trees for more milk jugs or something.) But I agree, I love her colors!
I think she had said that she releases one every other month or so. That means that I think by next year all of them will be out. So exciting I can’t wait to see how they look all together.
Girl!!! I am so happy to see you!! And your choice of the “heavenly sky” fabric for the Theresa Kogut piece is just outstanding. Gosh, you just inspire me so much 😊. Oh Megan, my heart just melted when I saw your dad holding Malakai 🥲…what a wonderful blessing that is! So much love! And Amira…that stunning smile! What a beauty she is! 🥰 Malakai looks like Daniel! I’m so thankful that you shared those pictures of your family, it really made my day. As always, you have lifted my spirits, especially knowing that you’re doing better and the baby is too! I hope your birthday is the best, most blessed one yet. Sending love and hugs, Meline
Thank you!!! 😄😁😁 I am so happy with the fabric on that one. It’s a joy to stitch on. Idk it’s addictive LOL. Isn’t it the sweetest. My dad is a big guy 6feet tall and he just bawled seeing little Malakai 🥹🥲 I can’t even look at the photos or I’ll cry hahah. My dad’s awesome I am so blessed. Thank you for the birthday wishes! Hope you’re having a great day. 💗💗💗💗
I am LATE to the party….but so excited to see a bit of energy lift that only comes with time and NOT to be rushed when trying to get a new little fellow into the rhythm of the family vibe……one QUESTION on the oh so fun “Simple Beanie” pattern……after the first four inches…..folding over and lightly whip stitching it down….(so satisfying)….. approximately how many more inches did you knit before knitting two together for your husband?…….niece/daughter?…….I realize these are just ballpark figures…..Thanks….
Hi Sherry! Happy stitching and knitting. I would say I knit another 4-5” before starting the decreases. I know I always at least knit the length of what I whip stitched together plus an inch of two. I usually eyeball it or pull out whatever hat is Daniel’s favorite and go off that. I found the longer the better for him because he likes them a little saggy and they always shrink in the washing machine.
Hey, I wanted to help out with your question what that motif in the MFE Stitch Along 2022 is. It a heraldic figure depicting a double-headed eagle. Love your content!
I don’t think that’s a ship. I looks more like a bird-like symbol that is on a lot of European coat of arms (?) / sigils. I have a book on sampler motives, I’ll try to look it up for you
I don’t know of any others except there is one in Richland I think someone told me once. I’ve never been but I’m sure it’s great. I stitch 1x1 on the 20ct Aida. It’s like stitching on a 40ct linen so I think 2 threads would be too tight. I am really loving it though!
I am! It looks so good. Definitely would give it a shot I am excited to start a big sampler on my left over cut. Haven’t picked what yet but it’s so nice to stitch on.
Can you please give me the designer name for the unicorn piece? I would like to check it out. Who is your LNS where you bought it? I love your Flosstube, thank you. Loved seeing all your projects.
I bought it at Thread Needle Street and the chart is by Thea Gouverneur. Here is a link for it on Amazon because it’s significantly cheaper than at my LNS. a.co/d/fjB9UdL
Such a beautiful baby boy! Amira as well! Love love love her dress! So happy and thankful he is healthy and growing perfectly! Congrats to you and your family! I wish you guys all the best vibes to come!
Thank you so much 🥹🩵🦄
Beautiful stitching and family!
Thank you! 😊
Yes - I think it is a ship!! Good call! I've been wondering what that was the entire time I've been stitching on that piece - LOL! Love your color choice - so rich and beautiful!
The sweater for your neighbor's daughter is beautiful! Love that color! I would totally wear a sweater in that color.
Happy Stitching!
So someone commented and let me know what it is LOL. It’s a heraldic eagle. I would have NEVER guessed it looks like a Viking ship or something to me 😆😆💗. Thank you for watching and spending time with me!
I just love that Teresa Kogut piece. It is looking so good!❤
Thank you!
Loved your shares. Congratulations on your baby’s arrival and happy birthday! - 🎂
Thank you so much! 😊

Woohoooo Taurus season 😈 🤭💗
You're little girl looks so cute in her glasses! She's looks like Mama!
Thank you! It’s crazy because I think she looks like me with the glasses now lol. Before everyone just said how she looks like Daniel.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful patterns, and your knitting. That pink sweater is perfect for a little girl!
Thank you for watching! 💗
Happy Birthday ❤. Your stitches are inspiring whatever count you do❤. Beautiful family❤. I'm excited for all the spring birds outside and stitching birds inside😂
Thank you! Lol so true about the birds 😂
Happy early birthday! ❤

Off to watch your video from the other day! ❤
Thank you! Isn’t it crazy how time flies. I just can’t believe it. Hope you get all the finishes this next few months. Happy stitching. ☺️💗
Happy Stitching ❤!!!
You too, friend. 💗💗
I was so happy to see this new video and hear you and family are doing well. Your kids are so very adorable! Really enjoyed your stitching and knitting. On your last big project l think l would continue on with the border as you started iy. It is so very pretty and the clove color floss is so nice! I hope that all continues well for you in the future. You are one of my favorite floss tube videos l look forward to seeing!!
Thank you so much for your encouragement and kindness, Betty. I hope you had a great Easter and thanks for spending some of your precious time with me! 💗💗💗

I’m so glad you are stitching the muted color scheme of the Liz Mathew’s chart. I cannot make up my mind which palette to use!
I had a hard time picking too because they both are so good! 😍
Happy birthday next week !!!
Thank you!
Hey, I wanted to help out with your question what that motif in the MFE Stitch Along 2022 is. It a heraldic figure depicting a double-headed eagle. Love your content!
Omg thank you so much because I would have NEVER known. You’re the best!

I don’t think that’s a ship. I looks more like a bird-like symbol that is on a lot of European coat of arms (?) / sigils. I have a book on sampler motives, I’ll try to look it up for you
Yeah, pretty sure it’s supposed to be an eagle. If you look up “German eagle flag” that eagle looks similar to your motive.
Hi! I love threadneedle street. Do you know of any other LNS shops near Seattle? Do you stitch 2 over 1 on 20 count Aida?
I don’t know of any others except there is one in Richland I think someone told me once. I’ve never been but I’m sure it’s great.
I stitch 1x1 on the 20ct Aida. It’s like stitching on a 40ct linen so I think 2 threads would be too tight. I am really loving it though!
I was wondering on the 20 ct. are you using 1 thread? I have used only up to a 18ct. I think you have inspired me to try 20 ct.
I am! It looks so good. Definitely would give it a shot I am excited to start a big sampler on my left over cut. Haven’t picked what yet but it’s so nice to stitch on.
Can you please give me the designer name for the unicorn piece? I would like to check it out. Who is your LNS where you bought it?

Double headed eagle?
Someone’s commented and told me what it is! I already forgot LOL I need to go look back at my own comments and write it down. 😆💗
