Hello and welcome.

Today I have what I like to call my annual crafting video.

I have done, I would say, a couple of these embroidery with me style videos in the past.

This actually might look familiar to you if you've seen a previous embroidery video of mine.

Yes, I still haven't finished my autumnal scene here.

I think it was around the pandemic when I ordered a few of these embroidery kits, and was during like the holiday season and I think I just prefer to

pick it up around this time of year which is why I haven't finished it. It's also a very busy

time of year typically for for me, just with work and other

engagements that I have, so I'm not in any rush to finish it speedily, so it's taken me maybe a couple seasons to get through this, but

I usually love to embroider while watching a show, or something holiday related. And of course, this is is autumn themed so maybe Gilmore Girls

or anything like that would be something I would watch while sewing this essentially

we'll see if I can do another one for Christmas since I do have a few Christmas ones, but I think I'm very close to finishing this one, and I think that it would be really cool for me to finish it with you, if possible. Maybe we'll see how far we get.

And in a way, this is sort of the theme for the video of slowing down, taking things more slowly savoring them and while someone might be maybe not like me and want to rush to finish something like this i have not felt rushed to get through this, so... I usually thread the needle by just feeding the strand in, so one end is hanging off. You could nod it though, but I knot to mine differently, so you might see that.

Anyways, I should stop gabbing and start sewing.

I have the little packet here that came with my kit.

I got, again, a few years ago, on Amazon.

So not sure if it's still available, but...

It comes with a step-by-step guide.

It shows you the different colored string, which is in the little envelope, and the type of stitch, which, you know, you can kind of finesse.

It's not too intricate, thankfully.

I'm realizing I need to finish this yellow as well, but maybe I'll leave that at the very end.

Okay. at the very end. Okay, so I'm going to first stitch from behind.
