And heaven and nature sing finish is just lovely. I love the framing so worth the extra expense

[tamrenoblet]

And Heaven and Nature Sings piece is amazing with a spectacular frame!

Folksy Thomas turned out gorgeous, esp., in that copper frame!

The lorri Holt sampler, you could tea or coffee dye the DMC threads.

My first passion is quilting and cross stitch runs right behind it. Love your channel and the fact that your dog is over the moon when you come home. What a great feeling.

[primsongreenway]

You are so very welcome my friend!!!! Enjoy Mary!!! Cannot wait to see her come to Keep those videos

[carlabaker]

Quilts are definitely my cup of tea. I love watching you wether you are doing quilts or cross stitch.

[marymokry]

I understand perfectly getting home from work, playing with the dog, doing dinner, cleaning up dinner, making lunches for the next day, and just maybe, getting a little stitching time! Mostly every other day I get to stitching! I can relate!
Love your videos: your projects are terrific!

[hazelnut]

Yes, yes, yes on the cheesecloth ghosts!! 👻👻👻I love them so much!! All of your projects are beautiful and I really enjoy watching your videos.😍

[joyceclowser]

Oh, my gosh! Your two framed pieces are exquisite! They couldn’t be more perfect! Yay! I’m stitching Lori Holt’s Home Town Holiday Sampler also! Thank you so much for a wonderful video! Happy stitching!❤

[BlackSaddleRanch]

I love the red matting with the Heaven and Nature sings. I might have to steal your idea.

[JeanetteMastin]

Your reindeer picture is gorgeous. The red makes it pop and the frame is perfect. also, the lighting is fine in the video. I didn't even notice some of the lighting was missing.

I love window shopping! Had Holiday Home in my Fat Quarter Shop bag for two weeks. On its way home to me now. 😊 Love, Patty

I love your Spangled quilt with all the fall vibes. It’s just gorgeous, you are going to make a quilter out of me yet. 😉 The frame for Heaven and Nature is incredible - totally worth it! I’m so ready to pull out all my fall decor. I only put out Halloween stuff on my porch and not inside so I can start putting all the fall out now to enjoy for a few months before we jump to Christmas. Also loving the Hawk Run pieces. I haven’t started one yet but they are in my “library”. Thanks for linking the adorable freebie. Hugs ❤

[porthesia]

Thank you for sharing your beautiful work. I love Jack in a Halloween Cup, thanks for the link

[cynthia]

OMG….What a lovely home decor and beautiful stitching! Also, your opening shots of your dog and flowers are similar to mine! What a gorgeous Shitzu!

Olivia, I love Kim Diehl’s quilts and fabrics.

[nickieharman]

Great video and love catching up with you. My grandson still loves contact naps and he's almost 2. I'm going to enjoy these times as much as possible because as you know these grands of ours are growing up way too fast. Awesome happy mail and I can't wait to see what you stitch with them. Have the best week. 🌻😊

I came down with Covid this week and have been quite ill. However I have been infinitely cheered by working on ‘Jack in a Cup’. Thank you for sharing. It’s an easy little project even for one with Covid brain🇨🇦💕
