His comes at a hreat moment for me, as I too am trying to find a good way to “hold” my cross stitch. There are so many options out there so thank you for this video.I dont know him, but I like your son!

On the dimensions kits I saw another floss tuber punch a hole above each colour and then use them like floss drops. That way they aren’t so long either. I tried it and really like it. I’m mostly monogamous, may switch between a couple but that’s it.

❤❤😊Thank you very, very much for this tutorial. I do have the stand, but the scrolls had to stay tight. No turning. 😢 Now I can tweak the stand and make the changes. 🎉

Buenos días Querida Tema bastidor: si vas a vender uno avísame soy mexicana y no llega nada Mexico pero nada, yo lo aprovecharé por que desde hace mucho tiempo busco uno PERO a equivalencia de Euros o dólares, yo pagaría mucho en pesos mexicanos son exageradamente muy caros muchas gracias un abrazo

That was exactly what I needed to know. Thank you w

No, I do not change my floss over to floss drops when they come in the dimensions kits already basically on floss drops. I see it as a waste of time, but everybody’s different. I’m a fairly new stitcher about one year in I still keep my floss in little plastic bags and remove it from the skein. Yes, I am pretty much a monogamous stitcher unless I get completely bored with what I’m doing that I might start a new one and do some of it and that is just enough to make me want to go back and complete the other one. I’ve only had two going at the same time so I do consider myself a monogamous stitcher..

If your looking for a wonderful lap stand I can’t recommend the Elan lap stand enough. Reasonably priced, quality made, and a work horse. I’ve had mine 3-4 years and absolutely love it. There is a flosstuber who has the best review I’ve seen. I can look for a link for her if you’re interested. Happy stitching!

You can make these frames much cheaper using pvc pipe and qsnap clamps. And you can make them any size you want. I have made adjustments to mine so I don’t have to use a pillow

Hi, I see cross stitchers starting many projects. I hesitate to do that too. I always finished a project before starting another. And I wonder if I starting many projects too... It's a tentation. What do you think about it ?

I have this frame and I sanded the clamp edges so they were rounded and it works great

I know this is a old video but I have that universal I love mind

I know this is an old video. I diy legs and feet from dowels from Walmart flat wood from dollar tree. And wing nuts . Hands free cheep to make.

Great video but I went to Dollar Tree and get a steering wheel cover because I don't have time to do that but I love what you did

Great video, thank you. Where did you get the magnet's that you have to stick needles too?

Hi Annette would it help to glue the carpet non slip mat to the inside of each wood block than it would be a permanent fix and you wouldn't have to keep putting on each time

Would it help you to glue the carpet non skid mat to the two blocks of wood that way it's permanently fixed x

Great setup. Thx for sharing a tutorial on your finish project.

Which is the best niddle for this frame

What a lovely space!

Great videos all. Congratulations.

I put all my threads on bobbins. I mark the bobbin with the symbol. If there are blended colors I put some of the threads already blended on a bobbin and write the symbol and what the blend is. This makes it easier to keep stitching.

Do use bees wax for your thread to go into needle?

I cut the floss off of the card it comes attached to in the Dimensions kit. I’m a bagger not a floss dropper! 😬 Love the Dimensions kit you’re starting next.

I can make that spray 😂😂🎉

Can you just use regular alcohol or does it need the potato part of the vodka?

Thanks! 🎉🎉

Nice tutorial! Fortunately I can still rotary cut and prefer that, but it's always good to have options. A gentle tip (try or not), The seam allowance to go under the needle first, whether showing on top, or hidden underneath (what I call the Queen's Invisible Seam, reminiscent of the Emperor's new clothes) will not buck back if you put a pin in the middle of the seam allowance that leads the way. Just a thought. I sharpened up my piecing this way but I am a dyed in the cotton pinner.

Thank you.

Annette, this is a great video ! It is a good refresher for the basics of choosing fabrics for a quilt. I don’t use an accuquilt but a friend had one and cut out a tumbler quilt in much less time than using a rotary cutter.

I am so sorry to hear that you ( and your hubby) have been so sick! Glad to see your happy face again, and see your beautiful embroideries 💖Hugs! Lotte

My goodness, I had just checked on you yesterday and now here you are! I'm so glad you're feeling your spark return!

Glad you got your mojo back.

Glad to see you back hope you are feeling better

So glad you are back!

Very interesting frame. I’m going to see if it comes in different sizes. I too have difficulty with an unmounted scroll frame. Odd that I should because back in the day that was the frame of choice. I too have just returned to cross stitch after many years of a hiatus. It is a whole new world. I’ll look forward to see what responses you get about the scroll frame. Thank you for the review.

What brand of tensioners do you use at the sides of your Crosstitch frame? Are they nice and tight?

I just received mine last week I really like it

I hope you get back at it!! I just found you and watched all you videos today! Really enjoyed and learned alot

What was the clip that holds the fabric clip to control the fabric

Just found your channel. Love your calm and cheerful attitude and smile.

Nice visit and catch up with you! I also have the Bucks County kit have not started it yet though 😁. I noticed all your projects were on the large side , maybe you should grab a really small one and try that so you get more of a sense of accomplishment when you stitch on it and you can see a finish coming soon . Good luck 😊! Thanks , Kim ☀️

Great to see you again! One thread a day in the morning with my coffee is my suggestion. It works for me with projects that I’ve lost my love for. When I see my progress it encourages me.

It is so nice to see you. Missed you! I’m sorry you got covid. Recovery can be slow. Give yourself grace. You have beautiful projects. I like your new saying; that may be the perfect start & motivating. For me stitching in the am is easier than in the pm. Take care❤

It helps me to watch FlossTube and be inspired by others. If you have stitchy friends who are local, it’s also helpful to plan a get together for that purpose. Otherwise, maybe just allowing yourself to step away from it for a bit is necessary and the bug will bite you again when things in your life align better. Glad you are feeling better!

I’ve had Covid also. My suggestion - pick a smaller project and force yourself to work on it everyday. When you get finished with it you will have your spark intact. Take care.

For me it was taking a break from stitching and doing other things I love. So I’ve been crocheting and knitting for a little while and now I’m ready to get back to cross stitch! I think I just needed the break from it in order to get my spark for it back.
