Thank you 🙏
You brought so much joy, fun, creativity to us all.
We are very grateful 😇 to you n your knowledge our love of creativity.
Ooooh, a whole hour! How about I make you a deal, I'm pinning this for tomorrow morning so I can savour every moment over morning coffee. Thank you, Lori!
That's what I am doing too. Making tea and about to sit down with my stitching.

You have many talents and I want to be just like you!! I'm 74 years old and have been sewing since I was 14 or so. I used to crochet and knit years ago- you have peaked my interest to start crocheting again. Even though I am a quilter, (just got a new Juki) I always have a knit project going. I'm left handed and my Mom taught me to knit and crochet like a right-handed person! So looking forward to the crochet-along in June. I've already bought some of your chunky threads and will order some other colors in the next couple weeks. Thanks for your instructions and ideas!
I just wanted to thank you for your great instructions on the Granny Squares and your fun flower. I have tried numerous times to learn to do the Granny Square, but could never master the square until now. The Granny Square has always been very dear to me as I remember watching my Grammie making them many years ago. My Grammie taught me how to crochet, but we never got to that pattern. So thank you!
Please bring back the Scrappy Project Planner!! Love everything you make!!!♥️♥️♥️
After 2 very busy sewing days, I get to watch you work with my heating pad on my shoulders and back. I hope you have a wonderful week ahead. Thank you for your talent, inspiration and posting this video!
Congratulations!! I can hardly wait. I have been looking forward to this since I first heard about it. You are just such an amazing and talented woman. I would love to meet you some day and sit and listen to you talk about your grandmother and aunts. When I see your fabrics and hear you talk about something of your past it reminds me so much of my Granny, She was from Mississippi. I live in the Texas Panhandle, by Oklahoma, New Mexico, Colorado and Kansas. I only was able to see her for a week or two during the Summer and an occasional Holiday. Sometimes she came to see us but that was after I was grown and she wasn't afraid to fly. I remember when she started wearing slacks! I was shocked and a little sad for me, not for her, I loved her over the knee dresses and black boot like shoes with a heel and her aprons she only left off on Sunday going to chruch. Well anyway She inspired me to quilt. When she died I decied to take a quilting class in honor of her and make one quilt. Never thinking I would make another. Here I am, 42 years later and still love it. She taught me to crochet because when I was old enough to learn something she was unable to quilt so we spent one summer when she came to stay with us crocheting a kingsize bedspread. it was a Granny Square with A 3 D big beautiful Rose in the center of the block. Thing is so heavy I was never able to use it but I still admire it and think of her all the time. Thank you for helping me remember her even more.
Time for me to prioritize again because I always want everything. I haven't made granny squares for 40 years but I love thr yarn colors so much I'll be visiting thr tutorial. I looking forward to your book, I love anything that's in or from the garden. You always inspire me I cut all my scrap pieces into your measurements so I'm ready to start those flower pots. Thank you Lori, for sharing your talent.
I just retired and I have thrown myself into "everything Lori Holt ".
I have had such joy everyday 💓. I love your videos and had to learn what a blog is. You have given me plenty to do during my time off. Your videos are NEVER boring. I love your chats just as much as learning videos. Thank you so very much.
I loved Bob Ross too. I tried painting his way, it worked. My painting was not perfect, but, it was nice. In am no Artist. Loved him. Had his brushes and his clear paint palette. He was wonderful.
You must not ever sleep with all you do.
I always love to watch what you are doing. And to remind me of what I should be doing. Thanks a bunch. Thanks to you to Cassidy!
Lori, I was so excited to get this new video. I’ve missed you. I love just listening and learning from being with you in your sewing room. Finding your channel has so inspired me in many ways. It has also helped to get through these tough times as they are. I preordered the new book and look forward to starting my spools quilt. Thank you and your daughter for the wonderful time. Not boring at all!
Honestly, when I think about all you have on your plate…family, personal time, business, creating multiple products, fabric collections, books, blog, quilting, crocheting, cross-stitching, gardening and on and on…it’s kind of mind-boggling to think that you actually have time to film/create TH-cam videos, too!!
Of course, I’m absolutely thrilled every time you release a new video and patiently wait for the next one😃.
Take care of you and yours!! This is clearly a marathon you’re running. What a champ!! You’re loved and admired and deeply appreciated for sharing your gifts, talents and abilities with all of us!And although I’m typically in my craft room alone, I very much feel a part of a much larger creative community with all you and Kimberly do for the crafting world! Thank you!!🥰
Only 18 days late😰 But finally catching up. Life gets in the way of life! Love everything you do and encourage us to make. ❤️❤️🇦🇺
You know Lori. Your love for your family always comes through when you talk about your work and designing.
Lol, Boy can I relate to…”I’ve been crazy busy,”. I’m about to turn 78 and have been crazy busy since Christmas. Looking forward to a breather hopefully soon. Land sakes, somethings in the air! I’m thankful for a wonderful husband, my faithful Cattle Dog, my two horses and my quilting…… especially when life turns Crazy! Thanks for your videos as I have been watching for a few weeks now and appreciate all of them. Hoping to make it to Staples Sunday to pick up some foam core to make a few of your boards. Greetings from Maine
Gram - Both Dollar Tree and Walmart have foamcore boards and are cheaper.
@@kathyderouchey8221 Thank you so much. I didn’t make it to Staples yet and am so happy to learn that Dollar Tree carry’s foam core as it’s much closer to us. This week is more like normal and have been catching on things I needed to slip…. Like starting spring cleaning. Heading out to start cleaning my grain room right now. I just happened to see your note as was closing my iPad. Had been listening to quilt videos as making our supper. Much thanks and maybe I’ll sneak out this evening to pick a few up. I just started a QAL and a one or two would sure come in handy. Love from Maine where we actually have both sun and 50’s today.
Great to hear all your news! Cassidy does a wonderful job filming for you and she is greatly appreciated for all she does, including all the organizing that undoubtedly goes into your presentations! Really excited about the upcoming Calico collection and projects. Thank you both for all the inspiration and happiness you bring into my life. 🥰
Now it is important to garden because of prices are going to go up. Its nice to can your own things without chemicals. My mom taught me a lot about planting and I read books to learn more.
Lori, You certainly have been crazy busy!! WOW!! I was wondering what you have been up to but never want to pester you. I have no idea how you get so much done. Do you have a housekeeper or cleaning lady? I had surgery on my hand on February 10th and just recently got back to some cross stitching and some quilting. I was getting a little antsy. I need something in my hands to feel normal. I made 11 design boards. It took me 2 days because my hand would start hurting. It felt good to get back in the sewing room. I watched a lot of Flosstube and quilting videos on TH-cam. I started making some plans for some quilting projects and did even more retail therapy. Going to check out the links you’ve provided in this video. Thank you Kassidy for another great filming job. Lori, I have just one child, a daughter, Heather and one grandchild, my precious grand baby girl, Cameron. Little and older girls are so easy to love, aren’t they. Please don’t worry about the length of your videos. The longer the better!! You have made me a much better quilter for which I am eternally grateful. Happy sewing, happy appliquéing, happy crocheting, happy cross stitching and happy creating everything!! ❤️🪡🧵❤️
That’s what I like about your collections , you can use the, all together. Your fabric is so cheerful to me
I love all your idea and now th3e calicos top it all. I am a gardener and farmer too and love colors THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR WONDERFUL IDEAS AND PATTERNS AND FABRIC
Thank you Lori for sharing what you have been up to lately. I am so looking forward to your new book. I was hoping that someday you would do a book with quilts and blocks from your Sew Your Stash series. It is my favorite series on your channel. In the meantime, I will keep working on my chickens for the Chicken Salad quilt. I am new to applique so this has been a bit of a challenge for me. I so appreciate your encouragement on your blog to go at our own pace and have fun. The chickens are so cute and I love all the names you chose for them. Thank you so much for sharing your designs and ideas. I appreciate all you do. Your fabrics are my favorite.
Oh you will never be boring Lori, love watching you. I am really looking forward to your new collection those snails are so adorable. Thank you for being a fantastic enabler. 😗😗
Ok. Watching you crocheting is mesmerizing to me. Like your fireplace.
Lori thank you for cheering up my Saturday morning after horrendous long week at work. I’m cutting out and going to sew whilst watching you. Loads of love from the UK 🇬🇧
Same here Maria! I'm also in the UK and have so enjoyed this new video - its my Saturday indulgence and jumping off the world for a while.
@@moiraging3927 completely agree and good to unwind. Lori is extremely talented.
You are one busy lady........loving everything you do!
I love listening to your and your stories! I feel like I'm right there in your sewing room with you! And yes, our daughters are our best friends! Thank you Lori for welcoming is into your home!
It was so lovely to chat with you today. I am so excited to get your new book and have already preordered it at FQS. I enjoyed seeing all the things you have been working on lately. Chelsea is such an awesome daughter for helping out with the filming. Our daughters don’t realize how much we rely on them and appreciate all they do for us. See you next week!
You really are an amazing lady....I just love following everything you do! If you do read this, I'd love to know more about you. When did you start sewing? What made you start doing your business? Do you ever sleep? You are a working machine! You truly are an inspiration to me. I also started learning to crochet from 2 grandmothers and a great-grandmother at age 5 or 6. Then my grandmother had an old-time quilt loom that hung down from the ceiling above her dining table that sat 12! She would have her sisters, neighbors, and more every other Monday thru Thursday to hand-stitch the quilts that they all made with no machines involved. I would love summer vacations because my mother would let me spend those days with her and learn. I've never stopped. I mostly make handbags and things but I always go back to quilting blocks. So take a handbag I always have some extra fabrics and they go in my scrap bins, just like you have organized. I have followed that and it took me a while to get it all organized like you. Yup, like I said you are an inspiration! Thank you for everything Lori, I hope one day that I can meet you! That would be a dream come true.
I count the days until I get to see your videos Lori!!🥰🥰
Thank you for sharing. Bright and cheerful colors. 😊
No you're not boring lol! Every day I settle in with my cross stitching, my coffee and my favourite Flosstube. I always look forward to watching and listening as you talk through all of your wonderful projects. Thank you for sharing!
Hi Lori, I watched the video again and enjoyed it even more, thank you. I am out of action for longarm quilting for quite a while, so I will start my chicken quilt patchwork. I am just so glad that I got the sew simple shapes for the chicken salad quilt. Than you for all the inspiration videos. Greetings from Cape Town
Oh, Lori, I always think your latest fabric release is the best yet, and Calico is my most favorite yet!!! And yes, I think I have some of most you have done! Can’t wait for the crochet along, too. Spending time with you is like spending time with a best buddy, and I treasure your videos and watch them over and over. Your heart is so big and you are so generous with sharing to make us better at our craft. I said once that when I grow up, I want to be Lori Holt, and I absolutely mean it! Thank you for creating all the things and making our lives so full of fun!🥰
Never too long! Never Boring! When I see a new Lori video it makes my day! So excited to see your process and all that is coming up.
This video helped hoist me out of a deep stitching funk. Thanks much, Lori! :)
So fun catching up with you!!! Looking forward to all the fun up coming fabrics and granny squares! Your new chunky thread colors are gorgeous! Thank you for sharing 😘
Thanks for taking us for a tour of your projects. I love the garden theme to come.
Your never boring! Great things to see! You need to make yarn bowls to match your granny square pattern on it.
Idle hands will get you in trouble 😂 it's best to keep buzzing like a bizzy bee! I love everything you've shown us and can't wait for the new book!
You’re a busy lady. Your creations are amazing and I’m hooked on them all. I have my book on pre order. Can’t wait.
We are glad you are back. Glad you have been so busy, that means good things for us. Glad it was not sickness! Thank you Cassidy.
Thank you for taking the time in your busy schedule for us when you can. Filming takes time to plan and execute, I know. You are so generous with your time, ideas, and your knowledge
💕🌸Sweet video. We all just love your stuff and are so excited to see your new beautiful work.💕🌸
I am so amazed at everything you are doing. Your collections are beautiful and the projects are inspiring. I am doing the kitchen quilt instead of the chickens. Love using the books and the different patterns. Thank you so much. 🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️
I love your chat video. More please!! They don’t all have to be tutorials. Just really appreciate you spending time with me.
So excited for all the new things to come!! Thank you for taking the time to share with us, your creative mind is always inspiring. 😊
You got me crocheting again! Love watching all your tutorials!
This video was so fun! My husband is out of town so I was feeling lonely on a Saturday but this made me feel like I got to sit down with a girlfriend and just chat. As always, everything you do is beautiful, so thought out and pure perfection! Thanks for all your hard work!
Lori, you are so talented and such an inspiration! I ordered your book as soon as I learned about it. Thank you for all you teach.
Watching you and Kimberly Jolly always makes me smile.
I did the preorder with FQ Shop for your new book. Looking forward to it!!
Your videos are just like sitting down for a cup of tea with a friend. I often play your videos, even though I may have seen them before, while I see, so I can see with a friend. Thank you!
Thank you Lori! Calico Garden 🪴♥️🪡🧵 Love all the things! Thanks for sharing all your hard work. 🌱🌿🌷🌞
Love the new fabric and all the goodies with the line. Can’t wait to make the bags!!!
Thank you so much for chatting with us on what you've doing and doing and doing. You always get me pumped to create something new.😊🏵️
love your sit and chat and actually you gave me a lot of inspiration!!!! Thank you
I've missed your videos! So glad you're back! You always inspire me. You're giving me the itch to start quilting again, but I'm knee deep in cross stitch. I just need more free time in the day. Can't wait for next week's Floss Tube!
Your creativity is limitless!!! I so enjoy seeing all your projects and future plans!!! You’re videos are the best!!!!!
I enjoyed watching you show all your projects. Especially the granny squares. Back in the 70’s that was one of the first projects I learned from my aunt when she taught me to crochet. Our house was filled with so many pillows, throws and afghans that I made! All the pets ended up with them eventually. I remember even making faded blue Jean yarn granny square seat throws for my parents car!
I just love all of your fabric lines and am excited for Calico. I love how fun the quilts I have made with your fabrics look folded and stacked on the shelves of my glass front cabinet in the upstairs hallway.
Now, I can add afghans and pillows to my sewing room. I'm so happy you are doing a crochet-a-long!
Thanks for the long video chat Lori! A fun way to relax after work. I’m excited about the book, I’m making the pieced version of Chicken Salad, and I also can’t wait for the Granny Square Along👏👏. You’re amazing and so kind to share your creative blessings with all of us.
You are SEW Productive! Going to check out your links, and looks like I will start crocheting. I need to watch your tutorials, you’re the best! Thanks, Lori.
What fun! You are amazing Lori! Love seeing your videos. Eager to see your new book.🌻🌻🌻
Was at my local quilt shop doing a sew in with other ladies and was working on the chicken pattern of yours and one lady has never seen your show so, of course, I told her how beautiful all your fabrics are and the many, many designs and that I have several of your books. She loved the fabric I was working on and said when she got home she was going to look you up. I have not seen anything that you do that I do not like - love it all especially how neat and tidy all your things are. I am a Virgo and need tidy so I am working on my fabric stash to be tidy as I had been pulling from them. This scrappy spool design pattern will help me to cut up and sew up my scraps. Thank you so much again.
Lori you are one busy lady! Love everything you do! Thank you so much for sharing so much with us! Cannot wait for your new book!❤️
Lori, I so enjoy your videos. Thank you for chatting with us and showing us what you've been doing.
I enjoyed this video a lot! I’ve pre-ordered your book and can’t wait for it to ship. The Calico Line is going to be amazing! Thank you Lori & Cassidy ❤️❤️
Lori, everything you create is beautiful! I think you are just amazing and wish I could make everything. Have a wonderful week!
For years, I mean for years I have wanted to learn to quilt, still seems such a hard thing to do. I love just watching others do it.
You are so amazing!!!❤️❤️. I love your work and that you show us how to reuse all of your products.... books and templates. I am using all our bundles and and the baskets. I Love your videos!!! Thank you for all of the inspiration!!!! Thank you To you and your lovely team!!! Keep Stitching beautiful 😍!!
I love the Sew Your Stash Series -- it gives me a way to build skills, as I have only been quilting for 2 years. Thanks for this; I hope you keep it up going forward.
Loved the visit always get excited to see what you have been up to..sew much fun to come...
Wow. That would be an awesome wide back. The fabric on the back of flower pots
Never boring! Always love seeing what you are working on and stitching with you
Oh Lori I just love all things scrappy because of you and your beautiful projects and inspiration. I can’t wait to get my book in and just play with my beautiful scraps. Your fabrics are just delicious! Thank you so much for freely sharing with us your gifts. I look forward to all of your videos because it’s like you are right in my happy place with me giving me inspiration and step by step instructions to help me create beautiful things to surround myself and my family in. It truly is my happy time. Getting lost in the pretty things for a time.
Thanks Lori, it was fantastic and fun! Also many thanks to your daughter.
Thankyou for all the time and information you put into your tutorials and chats it feels like we’re in your sewing room with you love love love 💕
So glad you’re putting your scrappy saving system in the book. Very helpful!
Love it all!❤️ watching you crochet reminds me so much of my mother( she always wears cinnamon red polish)😊 she’s in her 70s now but all my life she’s always had a crochet project going, she still does! I’m sure she’s crocheted around the world 2 times! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love all the new things you have coming out Lori! You sure have a awesome talent. Your colors are fabulous. I was raised on a farm and married a farmer so love your things so much. Have your new book reserved and can't wait to get it. Patiently waiting for the bag panel. Thanks for all you do for us. 🙋♀️❤
Thanks you for ALL the inspiration.
Thank you Lori and Cassidy for a great video! I would rather watch this video than anything in tv. Excited to try the granny square stitch along. Have tried crochet before but could not get it. I’m hoping you will help me because I have learned so much from your videos! Thank you! 💜
I love watching your videos. Your fabrics are awesome and I have all you books. I am working on my first sampler quilt. I did do your best friends quilt which was so much fun. I hope you and Kimberly do another one. Your amazing!
Your videos are never too long,I enjoy working on my projects while watching you,it’s like being with a wonderful friend. I’m working on chicken salad,and next I’ll be doing granny garden,I already have the material and simple shapes for that. Thanks again for a great video ❤️
Enjoyed your chatting so very much. Having a bad day until all the joy of colors a beauty. Calico is a favorite of mine. My first quilt was with calico squares. Still love it to this day. To think I almost threw it away because of all the mistakes. Now it’s a treasure.
Hi Lori, loved your your flower crochet tutorial! I’m just learning how to crochet and you inspire me! Just found out I’m going to have my first grand baby and am excited to crochet a blanket for her! Thanks for all you you!!
So lovely to hear your voice Lori and see what you've been up to! Have ordered the scrappy quilt book - can't wait! Take care - love from UK x
OMG I love the fat quarter stash bundle. That is something I really need. Thank you
Absolutely a great video. I wish I was there in your country. We only have small supplies of your products. I wish I knew about the sewing mug. I love a sewing machine.. Well done Cass help your mum.
I have all your books that are still available. I love how much patterns and blocks you put into each book. They are a great value because of the amount of patters.
Yur "bunch of stuff" is my dreamy inspiriation. Your channel continues to be my favorite. I look forward to every episode!
Thanks for a great video! Glad to see you back! I look forward to your flosstube next week! I have NO IDEA how you do all you do! Holy buckets, you are a busy woman! :)
Just finished my first Granny Square blanket, thanks to your tutorial series, thank you so much. Would love to try something else cute crochet related to try and expand my skill level a little. Thank you
I just started gardening last year. I’m so excited for Calico Garden Quilt. This is a blessing to me on so many levels.
And I love birds. Wow. Exciting
Thank you for your generosity and also for the hard work you put everything you do to share your knowledge and ideas with us. I so appreciate you., I’ve learned so much from you. You’re amazing and I love you. I pray for your strength and stamina to hold up while you work so hard on all the things that help us learn from you.
So hoping that the Calico Garden quilt is turned into a cross stitch pattern!
right?!!!! I LOVE IT!!!
yes me too
Excited for the scrappy bundle! I love a wide variety of fabric, so this is a perfect way to get a great combination of your collections. Thank you for the company while I sputtered in the kitchen.
Lori, your yarn seems to have a very pretty sheen to it. It’s so pretty! I love it! Thank you!
Calico looks amazing, I cannot wait to make the snails! And your videos are never boring or too long ❤️
