Yes! Please do another flosstube with Arica next August. You both are so personable and easy to listen to while I stitch. She has many beautiful things to show and I loved seeing her daughter too.
So nice to meet Arica and Ava. Such beautiful stitching and a wonderful celebration of friendship! Thank you for a lovely visit! 💜 - Connie

Ok Samantha....your videos are ALWAYS going the tiger GREAT!! But, your BFF is also GREAT!! How talented is Arica!! Passing it on to her daughter priceless!! Oh!! the sampler walls Ava will have!! Totally enjoyed...Erica GET A FLOSSTUBE LADY!! HAPPY STITCHING TODAY AND EVERYDAY IN 2023!!
Welcome Arica !! We’ve all heard Sam talk about you in the past and so happy to meet you!! Loved to see the two owl forest patterns side by side and glad there were three to see!! Happy vacation to you all!! Thanks for passing on our craft to Ava!!
Arika, you’re a natural. And the two of you have such an inspiring friendship. Thanks for sharing it with us. Oh, and the stitching was beautiful too.
How much fun was that?!? You are so blessed to have a friend like Erica! Enjoyed watching you two together. ♥️
What a great video. Arica you are a natural at flosstube! Love your sewing and seeing your daughter! Nice to see you Samantha and hope to see you at the retreat day at the shop in a few weeks.
Thank you so much Joanne! We had the best time filming together and I’m already looking forward to the next time we can do it again. I will be attending the day stitch this month !! I’m looking forward it, see you then 😊
This was such a delight. How lovely to see your life long friendship and shared love of stitching beam out from the screen. I felt privileged to be able to see it and all the gorgeous stitching. Every one of your videos makes me happy. 😊
Thank you so very much Susan!
Good to meet you, Arica. I really enjoyed seeing your stitching, ladies! Enjoy your cabin retreat!
That was a fun video! It was great seeing Erica and getting to know her and her stitching. I would definitely love to have a yearly Cabin video featuring the two of you and the new crafts you have picked up since the last one - "And now you're a Shepherd"- Yep!! Happy stitching.
Samantha, It was so lovely to meet your friend Arica. I think you are both very blessed to have been able to stay close over the years despite distance between you. I loved hearing about your experience with the Tiger Lily folders. I have made two large and one mini. I will confess to you that I also sewed the pocket closed. My brain just couldn't wrap itself around the instructions for sewing it. Fortunately, I discovered it right away because I tried to stick my hand in it. Enjoy your journey of making more project bags. It was nice to see a young girl, Ava, who is interested in stitching. Great that you are passing on the knowledge. Take care. Best, K
What a beautiful video ladies! Loved seeing how you're friendship grew from the love of stitching all the things. Thank you for sharing :)
Erica, you really need to frame your Mirabilia pieces, they are just so beautiful to just sit there
You guys are soooo great together! I love your friendship and your mutual passion for the craft! While I always love this channel this episode was extra special ❤
What a wonderful video. Your friendship is inspiring- thank you for sharing!
you guys did a great video. Love it. Nice to have such a great old friend.
I loved hearing your shared stitching history!! Thank you both for sharing!!! So fun
You are so welcome Emily! Thank you so much for joining us. I think this will be my all time, so far, personal favourite video!! Looking back on it … I wish this could be a regular occurrence. It’s really nice having someone to talk with while filming, plus twice the content to share with 2 people. Cherry 🍒 on top is Arica is my bestie!! I’m glad you and others enjoyed meeting her.
Love love ,what a wonderful episode, such a lovely friendship and all 3 very talented, thank you x
Thank you so much for your comments ❤️!! We are thrilled you enjoyed it.
Hello Samantha and Erica! Thank you so much for putting together such a fabulous presentation for us! You both are such accomplished stitchers and it's amazing you started your stitching journey together! ❤❤
Erica's canvas work had me the closest I've ever been to saying I shouldn't even stitch anymore because look at what I should be doing on my projects! The roses and the changes on the motifs on Emerald City are fine art, in my view. 😱
Love all those project holders, especially the one Erica made for Ava with that big butterfly!
Great episode, ladies! ✨️🎊😍
Oh my goodness the Alice pieces are fabulous! How fun to stitch them together! And the Treasure Island SAL is also amazing! You are so lucky to be life long stitchy friends!
I am fairly sure that I am a long lost cousin who would love to be gifted that fairy...lol beautiful work it's amazing. I enjoyed listening to you two and can see why you're friends. Such beautiful finishes and starts.
Long time friends are the best! Really enjoyed this video ❤
I enjoyed this video so much. Between the stitching and the beautiful project keepers and the friendship it was just all so beautiful … the friendship is my favorite part! Thank you for sharing a bit of that with us❤
Also, Ava girl you are amazing and beautiful and I loved seeing your work!
@@Fibersandfloss she was such a natural!!!
Such an enjoyable video. Thank you so much for your time. It was wonderful to see your friendship. My parents used to live in Abbotsford and now live in Victoria.
First time watching!! And what a treat!! Thank you for sharing!! You both do beautiful work!! Your creativity is brilliant!! ❤
I love this! Now I want to have a stitchy friend to spend time at a cabin with! Love it! Also, now I've gone down the rabbit hole of canvas stitching, so thanks for that!
@@Fibersandfloss yarn on linen?! I’m so intrigued!!
Great video! Love all your finishes and your progress on your wips. Happy stitching!
Thank you so much!
I enjoyed watching this episode Erica is great good to see you friends together stitching!
Fun video and beautiful cross stitch projects both of you. I really liked the project bags/holder and the caddies. I wish we were living closer so I could maybe buy one from you 🥰👝 Thank you both and looking forward to your next video Samantha 🥰🧵🪡
Thank you so much for spending your time here with us! We are thrilled you enjoyed it. I’m currently dreaming up the next episode. Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment as I always enjoy reading yours!!! -Samantha 🦋
I wish my childhood friend stitched with me…in a cabin too!
Oh Ava, beautiful job on the A fairy❤ I adore the Mushroom houses! I love mushrooms. I have four charts...
So nice to meet your bestie Samantha. Brilliant pocket on the project bag!
Zowie, the fabric on the project keeper! Gorgeous!
Thank you so much Rebecca!!! This will be my personal favourite video !!!
So amazing to have a stitching friend and have your own little retreats each summer! Love seeing your progress on Treasure Island, I’m quite behind but I’m also betting it’s an island in the middle
Hello so nice to meet you both for the first time this evening. Samantha thanks for a joyous video so many beautiful memories you all have together 🎉❤ beautiful family friendship 😊😊 Hello everyone have a blessed weekend ❤ InezArnetta 🌹💐🌹
Our pleasure! Thank you for spending your time getting to know us! We are thrilled you enjoyed and that you took the time to comment! Appreciate you ❤️
Delightful to watch! Love your friendship stories and seeing all the projects between both of you is so much fun!!!
I love my Tula Pink snips!
Wonderful video!!! Loved seeing you both together & enjoying yourselves!!! Oh, to have a stitchy friend & a stitchy daughter... my kids say no... 😂...😢... I just bought one of those neck lights because my clip-on doesn't always fit where I'm stitching!!! I loved the Queen changes on Alice, she was the first thing I noticed & loved! All the bags, portfolios & caddys are awesome!
What a great video with all of you! I enjoyed it very much and seeing your stitching progress was so fun. So much beautiful stitching and sewing of project bags. I’m currently stitching some of the same Owl Forest designs that you showed. Thanks and happy stitching. 😊❤
Laughing about Arica's quote! I started with cross stitch, went to spinning, weaving, knitting, crocheting, dying and thankfully back to cross stitch. It was a journey and never became a Shepard!!! Arica, do your own flosstube! Thank you Samantha for sharing your Treasured friend.
What a wonderful flosstube ! Lovely to see you both together, enjoyed seeing 'all the things', and yes definitely make this a regular annual event, happy stitching.
Thanks so much Debbie !! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ we are thrilled you enjoyed all the things !!!
How awesome to Stitch with your best friend. Thank you for all the eye candy.
You are so welcome! Thank you for joining us Elizabeth for this special episode!! ❤️
❤❤❤ you guys are amazing! You need to incorporate a zoom flosstube I to your rotation of filming Samantha!
I did purchase the pattern but have not started yet....great job Samantha.
This is so awesome. Loved everything.
Thanks so much Debbie, we are so glad you enjoyed it!!
This was so much fun. (Loved the guest spot with Ava, too.) How wonderful to have a lifelong friend who still shares so many interests. Thanks for sharing with us.
So true! Thank you for watching and for the kind comments towards my guests !! It was a pleasure and I’m sure we will do this again!! I know they are both enjoying reading all the comments, so thank you again 😊
What a lovely video with you both. It’s so neat that you are best friends and both love stitching. Arica is a natural flosstuber.
Beautidul letter A! I have made these letters for each of my granddaughters. I LOVE them also. Great job Eva!!
Didn’t she do great 👍!! I know Ava will enjoy reading your comment. Thank you 😊
Fries are not crazy dutch😂 we are a proud people who have their onze language, I am Fries😉🤩 so guys are so funny and Nice to watch. Love youre bags❤️❤️
Amazing video. Really enjoyed meeting your friend. What a lovely friendship you have. Very enabled with all the projects. So glad you mentioned the quilt shop in Abbotsford. I will be able to check it out on a road trip from Kamloops. I was happy to learn witchy stitcher is Canadian. I know Shannon Christine lives here as well.
Thank you so much for joining us! We had the best time filming together. Yeah for Canadian designers and shops!! Glad you can now and a new shop to your list to visit one day.
Samantha, thank so much for sharing your best friend Arica with us! And her daughter Ava!!! It was such fun to see the joy, love and friendship between the two of you as you share your passion for stitching with us! I always get so excited when young kids do anything by hand and Ava's work is beautiful! Thanks as always, Samantha and happy stitching!
Samantha - so nice to meet your friend Arica and I like your freckles. Loved all your projects - both of you and Arica's daughter Ava too. What a lovely young lady and her stitching is beautiful. Keep it up Ava. Arica - you should frame your first ever piece - it looks finished so go with that. Also, try putting your canvas on stretcher bars with tacks for that purpose - then you can use a frame and do two-handed stitching. Your dominant hand on top and the other under and it goes super fast. If you have good light you can see through the canvas and it is easy stitching. This way, you can also use a laying tool to get your stitches flat and for your two threads to lie side by side. That is a bit tricky to do "in hand", but maybe one that is on your thumb or finger would work. A laying tool is great when you use a scroll frame or stretcher bars.
Hi Nicole !! Thank you so much for joining us today !!! I loved reading your comments. I hope to see you at the next meeting!! I’m getting excited to see everyone!!
Such a great video. Beautiful projects.
Thank you so much Deborah, we are so glad you enjoyed it as much as we did !! 😊
Great episode! How lucky are you to have a best friend with a common interest. Would love to see Arica & daughter back next year.
Thank you so much for watching !!! 😊
That portfolio is gorgeous!
Thank You so much !
Very nice video! Great when friends can get together to stitch. You mentioned starting a Chatelaine, just in case you haven’t heard this tidbit, make sure you always buy your Chatelaine charts from the Chatelaine site, and not from a secondary shop. I found out the hard way most of the secondary shops don’t send all the paper for that chart. I bought a Chatelaine from a cross stitch shop and received 22 pages of the chart for $40 plus shipping. I was not understanding all the pattern they sent and heard from someone it was missing a bunch of pages, so I bought the same chart from the Chatelaine web site for $ 40 and received 41 pages including color pages and PDF of the chart. I learned my lesson. Good luck. I’m still kitting it up a dollar at a time through the European site in the U S.
It was so lovely to see the two of you together. Gorgeous stitching!!! Ava is doing great and is so cute. This was such a fun video. Thank you all!!!
So beautiful!!!! Kathy Rees has some beautiful counted thread. I use wooden stretcher frames to work on these. Use tacks to put canvas on wood. They come in sets of two and you put them together. I like the small version of the bars best.
This was so fun, loved seeing you both together. Your project bag is fabulous - love the back pocket! And the Tilda fabric is so pretty. (My background is Dutch/Friese also, 😉) Thanks for making this video!! Hugs and blessings.
Oh thank you! We are so glad you enjoyed it !!
@@Fibersandfloss ❤️ Yes, but I haven’t found the “one” that I want to start yet.
Wonderful flosstube! Loved seeing Arica's input and her daughters excitement over stitching...so fun!
Love seeing your and your friend this was super special and amazing and so cool to see the difference in stitching
Thank you so much 😊!! It was awesome to be able to share it with you !! I hope Arica and I can do this again soon. She started her own flosstube if your interest @fibersandflosscanada
@@HyggeStitcher oh yes! I’ll check it out, thank you!
Am working on Summer Quaker, was going to start in August but had to wait on fabric so I started in September! Am really enjoying it,hard to put down! Am collecting the Treasure Island charts but haven’t started yet. After seeing yours I really want to start! You two are a great team, can tell you are great friends
Arika was a natural!!! N the two of u together was great too! Great watch! That pic of y’all together stitching takes the cake!
That's awesome that you have a lifelong friend who stitches! What a treasure!😊
Great video and thank you for introducing us to Fibers and Floss.
A fellow Abbotsford stitcher!! Yay!
@@Fibersandfloss yes!! That would be great!!!
Been a pleasure meeting your friend. Why wait a year; there is zoom.
What a fun show with you and your bestie! Arica’s project bag and portfolio patterns are beautiful! Good job on your first try, Samantha, even with your booboo. :) I LOVE the Owl Forest Embroidery patchwork calendar that you’ve been doing and paused the video to go and buy it this time! I’m confused about the threads though. I don’t want to use a solid DMS. Are you choosing your own beautiful over-dyes for these? If you’ve already posted your version somewhere, just point me in the direction and I’ll look for it. Thanks… Love that you’re having a fun vacation with your friend! Enjoy!
What an absolute delight this episode was - both for the stitching and the story of your friendship. Thank you!
My sister and I both have those lights. I love mine. I even have purple and she has the pink.
ooh that's a great idea lol. my 8 month old likes to slobber on mine@@Fibersandfloss
One of my favorite FlossTube episodes EVER! You guys were adorable together! 💗💗💗
Thank you so much !! We are thrilled you enjoyed this one !!!
Enjoyed this one. I wanted to comment on your friends piece that had yellowed. The same thing happened to me. I have a 30+ year piece that I wanted to fully finish that was discolored. I am not endorsing this product, but my personal experience I ordered a product called Retro Clean from Amazon. I soaked my piece and came out like new.
Again, I love your segment. Have a great week!
It was so fun to see this video. It is always fun to see you, but with your friend Arica, it is dubble the fun. You should do this every year. I send you a DM on instagram about were I found out about your flosstube. I hope to see you on flosstube with your projects. Have a nice stitchy time.
Thank you so very much Suzanne for watching :) !!
How neat to see the same chart stitched by two different people, side by side!
So highly enjoyed you both! What a gift of friendship and stitchiness ❤❤❤
Loved it as always. And I cross stitched with my pink neck light while I watched the two of you. My daughter bought one for me about 4 years or so ago. LOVE it! I have even used it in the dark to walk my dogs. I have two 75 lb. dogs, and I can't hold a flashlight with them both so this works great. LOL!
Oh, I LOVE the little watering can stitch...you definitely should finish it. It is a Marjolan Bastien (sp?) one....very lovely for a young person especially.
I’m with you !!! Thank you so much for your lovely comments Hanna. I’m so glad you could join us for this special video ❤️
I want a heart button. Clicking like just doesn’t seem like enough. What a treat this video was. Arica,I’m not a floss-tuber, you are a natural. I could listen to you all day. Thank you for taking the time to share your love of stitching and your friendship. ❤
You're the best! Thank you so much for your comment! I know Arica will also enjoy reading it.
Love the two of you together! Thank you for sharing your time and talent.
Our pleasure! Thank you so much for watching and for taking the time to comment. Arica and I have been enjoying reading them 😊😊
What a joyful episode! Arica and Ava are just as delightful as you Samantha! And their projects are stunning! It took forever for me to get through this episode as I found myself stopping to look up all the things you talked about, lol. You two are definitely enabling my already out of hand cross stitch habit. I was wondering if you could recommend any Canadian cross stitch designers? I am taking a cruise in October from Boston up through PEI, Newfoundland and into Quebec City and thought a stitch to commemorate my trip might be fun to start! Nothing too elaborate, I am currently into stitching smaller pieces. Any suggestions would be appreciated! Love, love, love your flosstubes!
Welcome Erica...how exciting
Hi, I am from Russia and so funny to see that you both like Owl forest embroidery. I follow Arica on TH-cam now and saw which gorgeous pillow she made from cardinals project. Funny that she startet to film also. It was so sweet to see her daughter also, I have a teenager girl at home and so sad she's not interested in handwork at all. Thanks for video, it was a great time with you! I am stitching dimensions Rose bouquet now :)
Love this! Yes, make this a yearly thing.
Hooray!! What a treat !
Hi Wendy !!! Thank you so much for joining us !!! ❤️
What an awesome team loved this, one of you needs to move so that this is a regular treat ❤
Lovely, lovely show....thank you ladies and Eva
Loved the video! How great to have a childhood stitchy friend. Could you please tell me the name of the interfacing Arica uses on the portfolios that she purchases from Chitter Chatter? I hope you two do another video….maybe next year, if not sooner!
Nice to meet you Arica! 🌷
Hi Joanita!!! Arica absolutely loves your channel and we talk about you all the time 🦋!!
@@HyggeStitcher aaawww, that's so sweet, thank you! Xxx
Loved it! That was so much fun!! ❤
Thank you so much for joining us Melody, we are thrilled you enjoyed it!!
What a good episode ❤❤❤ Erica needs to start a Flosstube channel, she’s a natural!!! Ava your stitching is amazing. My 9 year old is trying to learn, any advice?
@@Fibersandfloss I like that idea. My oldest will sit with me typically while I stitch or knit in the evenings and she either reads or plays on her switch. I will take to a shop and have her pick out a little kit. Thank you for your response and all your stitching was beautiful.
Loved every minute of this flosstube. Beautiful projects!
Thank you so much Christina! Your comment made my day !!
Great video. I love that you two became friends through Crossstitch so many years ago. I was making the Tiger Lily mini while I was watching you two. I am really curious what the product you use instead of foam?
@@Fibersandfloss Thank you, I'll check that out. I've been bag-making for quite some time and haven't tried that yet. Yes, Tiger Lily and Samantha are a must-watch.
Oh my goodness!!! I love the Alice in Wonderland pattern! I have that one on my list to start but man I LOVE the change to the caterpillar the most!! I would love to do that one mine. Can you share how you did it?
It really is awesome!! Arica did an amazing job on her caterpillar. Arica has started her own flosstube and I'm encouraging you to go give her a watch. @fibersandflosscanada I bet She would be happy to share how she came up with the changes. :)
Awesome! I will give her a watch. 😁
An amazing video, and a obviously amazing friendship :) I enjoyed all of it❤
Thank you so much! We are thrilled you enjoyed your visit.
Fun show! What is the name of the neck lamp. I looked online but there are so many and I wanted one someone has tried!
Did you use a particular book to change the various parts of the Owl Forest Design?
I can't find you ladies on IG.... 💜☮️ great episode!
Hi 👋 my handle on instagram is @hyggestitcher and Arica’s is @fibersandfloss

Love your finish. Where did you get the pattern from?
