Hi Nancy. Loved all of your stitching and beautiful quilting! You look great------retirement is definitely already agreeing with you:) Stay inside during this brutal heat wave and keep stitching!

Always love your videos, and your humor. Keep it up! Please don't call your errors "mistakes", they are called "Nancy's added touches" !!! I can tell you have joined those of us who are retired, you have a big smile and you find your STASH that you have grown over the years. Please don't be in a hurry to part with your stash, as retirement funds don't reach as far as pay checks did. Take care and keep stitching. Love the quilts also.

Good morning, Nancy! I just found your channel and I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. Congratulations on your retirement. I am a retired elementary teacher - 14 yrs. now - and I think it would have been a blast to be on staff with you. I love your sense of humor. I have a love of history and always told my kiddos that history is a really great story because it happened. I'm looking forward to watching more. Keep up the good work.

Hi Nancy, glad to see you are recovering well from your knee surgery. In the opening there was a picture of your grandson. I live near Broadcreek Boyscout campground. My boys were all boyscouts and we have lots of good memories from there. I am a big Peanuts fan as well and love the Halloween bag. Try to keep cool! Oh, I am a quilter as well and I love your blocks!!!❤

I’m not a quilter-I made two back in the day but don’t like cutting all the fabric-however, I love them. My bestie is an excellent quilter, who gets paid to quilt other people’s quilt tops and has made me a few. I absolutely love them and I have no patience for making them. However, I love seeing them. Thanks so much for sharing yours. I am still stuck on the first block of Shores. The rocks and ocean have not gone well so I kinda stopped to stitch patriotic and beach. I’m happy your knee is healing enough so you can drive again and that you are enjoying retirement. I started my ninth year of retirement and love it. Now on to watching your WIP parade video.

Have a great week & happy stitching!

Congrats on your retirement!!! Oh my that Heaven and Earth design is a doozy! But it will be stunning once done. Your pillow turned out very nice. It is a nice patriotic piece. The Halloween Peanuts bag is so cute. Stay safe in this heat.
@margaretblank9351Ай бұрын
Congratulations on your fully finished pillow! Well done! I also admire your applique by machine -- I confess, I've done it, and also by hand, but it's not my jam. I'm a *piecer* and love Bonnie Hunter too -- as she continues to help me use up my scraps. (They breed in the night, doncha know?!) I'm also fond of samplers, and have a couple of big ones on my plate. My fave designers are Jeannette Douglas (I used to work for her in her office when Iived down in Calgary where she is). I"m also fond of Jacob of Modern Folk Embroidery -- his geometrics and Quaker designs get me every time. As for an LNS -- I'm 2+ hours' drive north of Traditional Stitches, but I love that shop -- and they have a great online store. And I've also treated myself to some of Evertote/Roxy Floss linens and flosses. I prefer to buy Canadian, of course, as the CAD/USD exchange rate is 30% or so -- and not in my favour here in Alberta!

As others have said, you have some beautiful projects. Just wanted to let you know that felt like poppies, with a straight pin to fasten it on your jacket, are available to purchase in Canada every year from November 1st through to the 11th. It's called Remembrance Day here, and the monies raised from poppy sales go to our Legions. When you have a chance, check out A Dutch Stitcher. She is relatively new to being back to stitching and has gone down the rabbit hole. Halloween and Peanuts go well together!
