Great video thank you for sharing the information have a wonderful week and happy stitching 😊🧵🪡🤗🤩

You've made me "Chatelaine Curious"! I never knew the back story on these patterns. And while I've seen several of them as WIPs on FlossTube, I have never actually seen anyone finish one. Which left me with the impression that they are gorgeous, but basically unstitchable. Time to parouse that website and start a small Chatelaine project. Thanks for the education and inspiration!

Just found your Chatelaine video so I’m a little late to the Chatelaine party 🥳 but this was a great video. I was not aware of Gloriana floss difference - now I have to go back and check my 2019 Chatelaine start to see if I have enough. I joined the support group so I’m excited to see everyone’s stitching. So glad I found you and Amy and your love for Chatelaine! Thank you !

Oh no. I went down another rabbit hole courtesy of you, Maggie! I saw the A-mazing Marie Antoinette Rose Garden Caleidoscope - and FELL IN LOVE. Then my bank account went - *snort* ‘not today sista’

Great video. I started my first Chatelaine Alpine Garden and I am still a little bit intimidated. Happy stitching!

I really enjoyed this video. Very informative. I have 1 chatelaine kit in my stash that I purchased 9 years ago and have yet to start it. Mainly because of the pattern. It is so tiny and I guess I just don’t want to mess with trying to print small sections and the. Try to piece them together. Maybe some day I will get to it. I did have mine kitted by European Cross stitch. I can’t even imagine trying to gather all of the materials for a Chat. All of your Chat’s are beautiful!

Wow. This video was awesome. I'm a junkie for wanting to see Chatelaines. But don't see, hardly anyone working on them. I've enjoyed this video. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!!!❤😊❤

Awesome video! So very informative ❤. I love the purple Halloween cat one, the colors are perfect!!! 🐈‍⬛🎃

I have never seen the Rainy Days mandala, it looks like it would be fun to stitch. so I had to check it out. Btw I love french knots. You just need to have the right tension.

Love this video on Chatelaine ❤

This was so helpful! I have Spring Knotgarden in my collection but have been nervous to start it because of the specialty stitches...your video made me a bit more confident!

thank you for your delightful video - love your passion

Thank you , Maggi, for this comprehensive Chatelaine Flosstube!

I think I've been waiting to see this video as long as you've been wanting to make it, lol. I started my first Chatelaine last year by doing her itty bitty $5 toadstool. It was so fun I got another one that was a bit bigger but still affordable and something I could kit myself, the Christmas Mandala. I've promised myself when I finish this one I can get a Big Girl mandala and buy it kitted ♥️♥️♥️

Thank you!! I’ve been looking and thinking about a Chatelaine for years but have just finally purchased the bead pack and a chart. Thank you for walking through your process with it, it helped immensely!

I saw your Halloween kitty one and bought it immediately as well. I’ve bought a few kits but haven’t started yet. I will with this one however

I bought my first Chatelaine a couple years ago. So far, just the one! There are so many gorgeous patterns though. Kinda glad it's taking me so long, it's keeping me from buying more, lol.

I've been considering "the big plunge" for about six months now. Thank you for all the info! I'm gonna get one kitted up this year!!

Awesome John Cusack movie reference :) These patterns have always looked amazing but quite intimidating to me. However you've made me think maybe I could/would do one. I'll have to check out the web sites you showed. Thanks!

Wow those are beautiful.❤

This video was amazing! Congratulations. It's a triumph, your majesty.

I have finally found someone that loves Chatelaines as much as I do. I'm so glad you shared the Gallery site. The computer renderings are not going to give you any indication of just how intricate and gorgeous the actual stitched projects are. I also essentially scream at anyone that will even look my direction that you NEED the PDF. I don't care how much you like paper. PDF. PDF. PDF. PDF. Did I mention PDF? I'd like to share that while watching this, I finished the stitching on Herbularius. It only took me 5 years. I have a handful of beads and some crystals to apply and it will be completely done. My first Chatelaine. This does not mean I don't have another already started and at least 10 more waiting in the wings. I just need the people at my job to keep quiet for a couple of hours and I will be done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Of course every time I look at it, I'll think of you. That sounded creepy. Not meant in a creepy way. Also want to throw out there that I have showed Herbularius near the beginning of almost every single video since I started a Flosstube channel. I'm on board with more people showing more Chatelaines. MORE CHATELAINES!!!!! #salestartsMonday ~J

I have always WANTED to do a Chatelaine but the difficulty of finding the fancy flosses and beads has always dissuaded me from starting. I thought of doing one for my 50th (this April) but nope, I just couldn't come up with the money to even get the fabric... Maybe by the end of the year? Who knows.

You’re making me want to start my Summer Band Sampler, since I finished my Winter Wonderland Band Sampler last year and now I no longer have a Chatelaine WIP! 😱 That super huge one you show at the end also looks rather tempting… I like big WIPs and I cannot lie! 😆

The K12! LOL My early 20's son recently went on a trip to Idaho to go skiing. I asked him if he was going to ski the K12. He had no idea what I was talking about. I told him the movie reference. He's a movie buff, but hadn't seen it. I immediately made plans to watch that movie with him. Now for a couple weeks, he's been seeing all these Better Off Dead references. I told him "Aren't you glad you watched that great movie now?" Yes, the Chatelaines will be the K12 for us stitchers. I saw your last video where you showed that Kitty Mandala and I immediately went and ordered the fabric. Yours is beautiful. Thanks for the enabling! :)

Thank you so much for putting out this video. I've been fascinated by Chatelaine patterns for years now and have a few in mind I really love, but never bit the bullet. I'm seriously considering going ahead with it and I've saved this video to go back to when that happens.

Love your intro, Majesty Magi 😂 Ohhh when I see Chatelaine posts, I am taken on a big ol guilt trip!!! I have many I need to start and one WIP I need to put more stitches into. I'm so glad you and Amy are keeping Chatelaine Designs active on IG and making Floastubes on them. I can't believe it's been seven years since Martina passed. I feel fortunate to have been able to take part in one the mysteries she used to do release monthly parts (it was Serengeti Mandala).

Thank you I have a pattern in the box for years. I think after watching this I’m going to start it

I always laugh way too hard when watching you...

Thank you for this amazing video. Now I just need to pull out my Chatelaine…

Great video, Maggi! Thank you for enabling. I'll get started on my wish list. 🙂

Thanks for sharing. I am hoping to get my first chatelain for my birthday this month, and I'm an Aida stitcher ❤❤

Love the intro. My first Chatelaine was Sparkling Peacocks which is absolutely beautiful. I am currently stitching Poison Garden. I import the PDFs into Good Notes which allows me to zoom in and mark off my stitches.

New viewer, but totally loving your enthusiasm and excitement!

I love your enthusiasm, Maggi! LOL K12, made me think of tv dinners for xmas! Your Chatelaines are so beautiful.

Love your channel. I did check out Hawkins Hobby. Their website states they no longer ship to US. Just

Oh the enabling….my head and heart love you….my wallet not so much lol 😂

I love your videos so much but this one is my very favorite!!!

Darn you Maggi!!!...I already have 1 chatelaine started, 1 ready and waiting for a scroll frame, and 1 waiting in the wings.....and now, after perusing the Chatelaine site, I have 3 more on my mental wish list.....you are such an enabler!!! thanks...(still gotta think up a good reason to tell hubby I need these!...I don't think "because Maggi said so" will work!)...but worth a try..😄

Those are just stunning! Someday… 😊

Thanks Maggi! This really helped in figuring out if I want to start a Chatelaine or just ogle over yours and Sharky Stitchers wips! You both are such amazing stitchers! I have the bead pack and some threads for a Chatelaine called Water World, I think! I am going to download it from their website! I too am a paper person so hopefully, if I do start one, I can figure it all out! They are so challenging for sure! Appreciate you taking the time to enlighten us on these beautiful charts! Thanks again! Oh, what fabric count do you tend to use? I was thinking a 28 count Lugana for my first one! Appreciate you!!

Thank you for a very informative video. I was curious and now I will check them out.

😂 that intro was perfect

I love your videos! This one was very informative and helpful. I requested to join the support group while watching. If you don't mind sharing how much does the Halloween kitty one cost to kit up? I've also thought of doing one of the mini Mandela's but haven't looked into it. Of course there are several bigger ones that I love as well. Thanks.

Ive got Desert Mandala with EC floss/beadpack but dragging my feet bc of the NPK (no pattern keeper) thing. I guess enlarging the image might have to do, thx for the input. I recently finished Shannon Christine's Koi Pond which was like a mini Chatelaine, so I'm not as fearful as I once was. Euro Xstitch says to check the items right away bc theyre only refundable by 30vdays, but the packaging was so cute, I couldnt bear! I "layaway'd" it thru Affirm or Klarna or something. Great vid!

Thank you for this video. I am thinking about taking the leap but I do have one question. Is it necessary to do chatelaines on a scroll frame? I have physical issues that I can only use the q snaps. I was able to use the 11 x 17 to do beading on a Mira. But it was only half the size of one of these. Thanks for the help and all this info so much fun to watch! 😊

For those of us who have loved seeing your (and others) progress on your Chatelaine stitching, it would be nice to know two or three of the SMALLEST Chatelaines - in case we might be thinking of dipping our toes in.

Joining the support group, but in the meantime I thought I would also ask here - is there anywhere that has ever kitted up the free chart? I like the idea of a small pattern to start out with, to test the waters, but with the materials needed, it’s kind of no longer a small chart in the sense of supplies?

I have just checked and it seems like hawkins is pretty expensive compared to ecc... so lucky you US 😂 I am not sure how much customs I will pay but it might be worth going with ecc even when I am in Europe 😒

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

How do you find out exactly when the sales are for European Cross Stitch?
