I have discovered both of these channels just recently, and I’m quite taken with both of them for different reasons. I just felt the need to share them both, and I hope you’ll like them too.

The Northwoods Stitcher

This is Sarah from Maine and no, that’s not wine though it wouldn’t be a bad thing if it was. She has a crafting space I would love to have! What makes her stand out from all the rest of the stitchers I’ve watched so far is her way of sharing tips and tricks she’s learned over the many years she’s stitched while also sharing her work.

She has some great ideas for finishing as well. In her latest video she did a tour of her space, and she talked about all the different ways she’s organized and stored her things. I like some of the tools she’s talked about too.

Her stitching is varied too and so much fun to see! I highly recommend you take a peek at her first video above and at least leave a comment for her.

Stitching with my littlie

This is Kayla and her daughter, Lauren, though you can’t see them in the video above yet lol. What sets them apart from the other mother/daughter duos is Lauren is either 12 or 13. She’s a very talented stitcher in her own right though she does let mom, Kayla, do her back stitching for her. I think she’ll start doing it when she’s a bit older.

Both of them have different things they stitch though they both like some of the same designers. Lauren is very helpful to her mom too, as you’ll see in their most recent video. They only have 3 so far so you won’t have to watch many to get caught up.

I love how the two interact with each other, it makes me miss not having a daughter of my own. Neither of my two boys stitch either. Perhaps my daughter in law might take it up with me….

As always, if you like them leave them a comment if nothing else. We can always use a bit of feedback from others.

I really hope you’ll give these two a look and maybe, subscribe to them. 🙂

See you on the flipside and don’t forget your towel and sonic screwdriver!!!

Yes, I made my first ever video. It’s not very good, but I’m a raw recruit when it comes to this sort of thing. I’m only able to upload 15 minute videos right now so you won’t have to suffer long should you choose to watch the following video:

The Griffin’s Nest is the name of my channel – duh! 😀

I do plan to make some more videos, and I hope you’ll come along with me on what is sure to be a learning experience for at least one of us!

Since Spring will be here before you know it, and many people say it’s time to start planting, I thought I’d share this very interesting – and helpful – video I found on YouTube. You really can find just about anything on there.

While I found this video very helpful, I’ll have to research how to grow them in a small yard/containers before I do anything. I’m also not planting radishes – uck!

If you’d like me to share any videos I find on container gardening, let me know. I’m hoping the Epic Gardener has some so I don’t fall down any rabbit holes. It happens more often than I like.

If you like the video, please let video creator know. We all could use some positive feedback on our efforts.

I’ll see you on the flipside and don’t forget your towel and sonic screwdriver!!

Isn’t that a great name for a channel?? When you watch her intro video, she’ll tell you why she chose that name for herself. I found her quite by chance – a random recommendation by YouTube that turned out well.

She only has 10 videos, but that just means it won’t take you long to get caught up. I enjoy watching her. She’s quirky, has a good sense of humor, and she does some beautiful work. I am looking forward to seeing more progress on her work especially one called Midnight Masquerade.

I like the more gothic style cross stitching, and she has some great projects in this genre. I highly recommend watching her and leaving her a comment to encourage her to make more videos. Everyone likes to be complimented, and she deserves it.

Let me know what you think in the comments below. If you have someone you’d like me to watch, doesn’t have to be Flosstube, of course, let me know in the comments below as well. I’m always looking for someone new to watch,

I’ve been wanting to make things with some of the bottles I’ve begun collecting, and I found this really cool video with a great idea for transforming a plain bottle into something gorgeous – imho anyway.

I’m going to be gathering up supplies to make this as I have a wine bottle I can use for it. I’m sure if won’t be an exact replica as my skills are rudimentary at best, but I’m going to give it a go anyway. Trying new things for the sake of trying is something I like doing.

Who knows, I might actually make something really nice looking. Enjoy the video!! I did. 🙂
