Your video was so enjoyable. I admire those stitchers who can do total coverage! And your fancy ladies are wonderful, bright, sparkly and shiny. Keep up the good work. There is a wide world of stitchers on floss tube; it is wonderful that I can sit in the States and watch a Scottish stitcher. I am sure you will find many stitchy friends.

Difference between a new stitcher and an experienced stitcher-10 minutes. Difference between an experienced stitcher and an advanced stitcher-1 hour. I’ve been stitching since I was 6, and there isn’t any difference between the way I stitched then and the way I stitch 50 years later. That’s the beauty of cross stitch. It’s dead simple and as long as you can count to 10 and make an x in the provided spaces-you’re good! I think that’s why it’s so popular in addition to we’re replicating art or designs that showcase someone else’s creativity so we end up looking pretty talented. Your work is beautiful and you are a very quick stitcher-enjoyed the video very much!😊

Hi Ashleigh from NJ in the US. You popped up on my feed today, and I'm soooo glad you did. I thoroughly enjoyed your video and hope to see many, many more in the future. I'm a special fan of fancy ladies and mermaids, although I do enjoy all genres of stitching. I only have 2 HAEDs on the go, and I have to be in the right frame of mind to work on them, tbh. I also have a lot of WIPS on the go. If I get bored, I have to move on to something else or I'll just stop stitching altogether. Take care and hope to see you soon. Steph

Hi Ashlleigh! Welcome to floss tube. Great first one. Your stitching is beautiful and you have such interesting projects. Looking forward to seeing which projects call to you next. I have been stitching for almost 60 years, starting with stamped embroidery and cross stitch, then finally in the 1980s was introduced to counted cross stitch and now do mostly counted with an occasional stamped piece thrown in, although my stitching has been extremely slow lately as I was sick from the beginning of February and am just now starting to feel somewhat better. Being immunocompromised is no fun at all. I live in the U.S., currently having lived in Texas since December of 2020 where my mom and I moved to be closer to my daughter and soon-to-be born grandson after my second divorce after both being 20+ year relationships. Fast forward and now my grandson is a rambunctious 3+-year-old who I take care of overnight 2 or more nights a week for a total of about 56 hours per week. He definitely keeps me busy and I am totally wiped out afterwards but I love being a hands-on grandma instead of a video grandma, especially since he is probably the only grandchild I will have since my daughter will be 40 this year. I really enjoy your channel and you will find that I am quite chatty in the comments, so if that is something that will bother you, please let me know and I will try to shorten them for you. I have already subscribed to you channel and I hope you enjoy your time on floss tube. Dawn in Texas, USA

Hi! Loved your first video and your projects are so pretty. As someone who is also severly Adhd I can say the struggle is real. I have a hard time not getting bored with projects and dread block stitching which prompts me to start all the things and continuously switch between them. I can also really relate to hating tent stitch. My brain just can´t handle the look of it and stitching like this feels so wrong for me. I´m looking forward to your next video and hope you have a great time stitching. :)

Love your stitching! I'm same way, I get paralyzed by what project to do next, and I get distracted easily when working on a project. I'll work on it for a few days, then want to grab something else, but don't know what to grab. Then I stand there looking at my projects debating. Usually I tend to grab something on a q snap and dont' like changing them. I only have about 20 q snaps. When I get really motivated to work on something, I'll swap q snaps.
