Maybe . . . " I don't want to be tempted to get more than I THINK I can stitch"
You're so much fun to watch!
I am so thankful for you and your videos! I looked forward to seeing all your beautiful things! I’m now turned on to samplers and am loving every minute! You and your hubby are so fun to watch ❤. I just started stitching again after 25 yrs and things have changed a lot. I still struggle with having more than one project at a time. Lol. I’ve gone back and am watching all your videos while I stitch. Love love love you!! Again, thank you so much 😊
Wonderful! Thank you so much!!!
As I was busily writing down the names of the many beautiful pieces you showed, (and I immediately knew I definitely needed them), you, out of no where said, “I don’t want to get more than I can stitch.” I froze, then cracked up laughing. We are the same age Carol, and I know I’ll never live long enough to stitch all the patterns I already have. However, some of the designs you showed immediately ended up in my cart at Colorado Cross Stitcher. Just saying. Love your videos.
That was a moment of pure insanity!!! Haha!!!
LOL-exactly what happened here! Sheri is going to wonder what hit! LOL
I won’t talk about your hair, but I like your hair!
Carol, thank you and your husband for all the time and effort you put into making your videos. It’s precious time you could spend stitching or enjoying your friends and family! We do appreciate it and look forward to each video. 🥰
Thank you so much!
Carol, you need to know that I laughed till I nearly choked when you said “I don’t want to have more than I can stitch.” Lordy, what stitcher doesn’t have more than we can ever stitch!
Love you to the moon and back. 😂❤
Aww thanks so much!!
I love your Shaker Box full of fall goodness, Carol!!! The Reverend Gourdon Squashbottom makes me smile each time I see him!! I keep saying I am going to start Feast of Friendship so maybe I will just do it and stop talking about it! Redware Crow is beautiful!!! Corn Maze quilt is fabulous! Love the Pumpkin Patch and Pumpkins in the Window....really, I should just say I love everything you stitch and quilt!! Thanks as always, Carol and happy stitching!
Thank you so much!!!
@SaltboxStitcher I just love watching your channel. Thank you for being there and radiating autumn warmth across America and beyond. 🎃🪡🍁
Thank you so much!
I like Quaker Crow🐦⬛
Thank you so much for your videos. You don’t know how much happiness it brings to my day watching them.
You are so kind! Thank you!
I really miss the Old Green Cupboard. Enjoy watching your flosstube videos. Thank you, Carol.
Me too! Thanks for watching!
Hi
I'm watching this TH-cam in August 2024. Love ❤️ see what you have stitched and showing older patterns too ! I have some of my Mother's old Christmas stocking patterns and am starting one.
I love your little pumpkin in the back by your lamp and was inspired to make one !
Beautiful stitching!! An I loved mr.saltboxs intro...as my dad Always used cb talk..he'd call me on my phone an say ,,what's ur 20?..." In cb talk that means ..where are u..
My dad passed away in 2019...so this intro was sweet to my soul ♥️
Awww sweet memories!!!
Oh Carol, love the both of you! Professor Saltbox is so comical. Well, I can spell but math you blow me out of the water! Never was good in math. I love all the stitching and the quilts are fabulous!❤❤❤
Oh thank you!
The Lawyer You Know.....he is GORGEOUS!!! LOL And a great voice... love listening to him :) Thanks again for sharing your beautiful stitching!!
Thanks again!
“I hear the sirens”-🪡to funny! 😂 thanks for sharing you projects-you inspire me!
Thanks for watching!
Carol , you crack me up! As always loved seeing your stitched pieces and the ones you are planning to stitch. Thank you for sharing and bringing a smile to my face.
Oh thank you!
I have only been stitching about 1.75 yrs and I feel like I have more charts than I can stitch. Thank you for keeping me company.
Wonderful projects from first to last! It’s nice when the Professor adds the name and designer of each project, it makes being enabled so much easier! 😂
Thank you very much!
Thanks for sharing. I loved seeing your quilts too! Judging from all the stitching and quilting projects I own, I must think I am going to live a long, long time!
Always a pleasure watching your video. So many beautiful projects and quilts! I figure I will need to live a minimum of 300 years to stitch all the things I have. But, there is always something more to collect!! Enjoy!
So true!!!
So happy to see you today Carol just joy you bring…Thank you !! beautiful stitching, love the possibilities of plans oh my 🤩 if your not back before Thanksgiving have a blessed day with family & enjoy all stitching….take good care Carol🤗🧡 happy quilt sale if only 🤞
Thank you so much!
Thanks Carol for sharing all of your wonderful cross stitching pieces and beautiful quilting. Love and blessings xx
Thank you so much!
Carol….Love your videos and seeing all your works. I so enjoy seeing your walls showing all your finished pieces in the beginning of each video; they are amazing….such lovely work! Thank Mr. SB for sharing all your beautiful stitching and quilting with all of us viewers. Happy Fall, finally…..I am from Arizona and welcome the cooler weather as you do in Florida. 🍂🎃
Thank you so much!
I believe you mentioned Jingle Ball and highly suggest attending. I had a blast last year sitting and stitching virtually and conversing with designers. This year I was able to sign up to take some classes, but still excited for meet and greets, designer entertainment, etc. You and your husband could offer great entertainment in future years and we would love stitching with you this year
!
Oh my goodness, you must never sleep, you have so many beautiful Samplers in progress, your fall pillows are lovely.
I love the look photo, it cracked me up. Horn books are a wonderful finishing idea, the wooden basket is beautifully filled with your pillows.
Redware Crow is stunning, oh my your quilts are lovely.
Thank you so much!
Enjoyed watching your video and thank you for the laughs. I love seeing all your beautiful previous finishes. Have a wonderful week and happy stitching 😊🪡🧵🤗🤩
Thank you! You too!
You’re not only an avid, amazingly talented stitcher, but your humor is so uplifting! When you said this should be engraved on my tombstone, “I don’t want to have more than I can stitch.”, I laughed out loud! 😂 You sure must be fun to be around.
Oh thank you!
Thank you for another beautiful ‘tube. Please don’t worry about showing things that aren’t available anymore- it is just nice to see possibilities. Some flosstubes seem like ads, just a continual ‘buy this’ rather than the sharing of a beautiful hobby. Yours don’t feel that way and I appreciate it.
Thank you so much!
Carol, I absolutely love you!!!!! I love your life update! "I'm alive! That's my update!" And like you, I don't want to be tempted to buy more than I can stitch....no comment from me either!!!! 🤣🤣🤣 Your stitching and wool and quilt work are all so beautiful. You are so talented and so prolific. I admire you so much, but I sit here at work with my earbuds in laughing along with you! Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful creations!!!❤ I am still waiting for a house tour, though. The red & tan plaid chair you had your shaker tray in is exactly what i want in my living room someday!
Thank you!!
You are so easy to watch. I love ALL your stuff. You do such a great job. I feel like I’m just visiting with you. Thank you so much. ❤
Thank you so much!
Hi Carol! Thanks to you and Professor Saltbox for another fantastic video. You keep me motivated. You are so talented. ❤
Thank you so much!
Inspiration abounds - present and past!!! Great FT. Thanks for all you and Mr. Saltbox do.
Thank you!
Hello Carol….you are so good for the soul…I laughed out loud when you said you could hear the sirens, the cross stitch police are coming to get you!…I do so look forward to your videos Carol. Thank you for the tips on floss and fabric choices, always so informative. Love looking at all your fall pieces, I need to start my Olga stocking….your piece is gorgeous. Thank Mr. Saltbox for us…always fun!
Oh thank you so much!!!
You make me smile and laugh!! Thank you for sharing!! I appreciate you!! ❤
Thanks so much!
Ok part two of my serial comments 🤦♀️ your fall stitching was beautiful to see and of course I now have a nice list of things I just absolutely “NEED” 😂😂😂 thanks for all the work it takes to bring these wonderful videos to us! It’s so appreciated❤
Thank you so much!!! ❤️
Hi Carol, First I love your hair that length, don’t stress. I had to pause you a few times to go to 123 Stitch but thoroughly enjoyed as usual. I waited ‘til everyone went to bed so I could savor every minute.See you soon😊
Oh thank you!
You gave me a chuckle when you were commenting that "you weren't going to talk about your hair...and then did" I do that all the time...say I'm NOT going to say something and then do. Your hair looks great BTW and I love your sweet husbands comments in the beginning (reminds me of my hubby!) I love everything you are stitching and hope to never live long enough to stitch them all...lol.
Thank you!!
Another great episode.ni always love when you pop up in my feed. So much inspiration. You stitch the most beautiful pieces. Thank you so much for sharing with us.
Thank you so much!
So happy to see that I have stitched some of the same smalls as you have, love your finishing! 💕🪡🧵
Thank you! 😊
Wonderful...I laughed out loud when talking about buying more than you can stitch...I pasted that years ago. I also watched your protects and need to sit them. Just finished 7 Christmas ornaments for friends with more to do. And I need some for me! I have started an English paper pieced quilt because I've never done one. I am truly never going to run out of projects.
Rain, sleet and frost today in NE Missouri.
Have a good week.
Oh thank you!
Hi Carol, fall stitching is my favorite and you've shown so many on my list. Fortunately the patterns are in my stash so I can get busy ASAP. The Reverend has to be stitched. Love to hear Prof Saltbox helping out! Happy Stitching 🎃
Than you!!!❤️
Beautiful stitching and you've finished so many things I have kitted or in progress. I can't even pretend to myself I'll get everything I have kitted stitched but fun to try!
Always enjoy seeing all your projects-at whatever state of “done-ness”! I’ve been enjoying some Fall stitching. Wish Fall was longer! Thanks for another enjoyable video!
Thank you!
Thank you for anther wonderful Flosstube! I was SUPER inspired by Nerissa's trees as well! I love the red ornaments you showed. Thank you for sharing your beautiful stitching! XOXO Heidi
Thanks so much, now to get them stitched.
Lets talk about the hair - it looks lovely. hugs
I love those quilts!!!! They are just lovely. I want to go home a piece pumpkins now….lol. Your videos always inspire me. All those Plum Street fall pieces are stunning!! Thank you again for mentioning me 🤓🤓🤓
Thank you so much Laurel!
Once again, so enjoyed seeing all of your projects and finishes! So inspirational! This year (I am a teacher, have one child left in HS) got SO busy and our oldest got called to deploy to the Middle East 🤦♀️ so we ran at the end of Sept out to Phoenix to tell him goodbye (he left the 4th, got their the 6th and magically the war starts the 7th…) anyway, I hadn’t gotten all my end of summer decor down. We got back, and I got sick…sinus infection, bronchitis, and double ear infection. Needless to say, I have never been so sick and it’s been years since I have gotten that sick!!! I have a great immune system working with the littles everyday. So my husband said, forget fall and just decorate for Xmas! So, this year that is what we are doing. Getting it all down this weekend and will start with getting Xmas up next week. We have three birthdays in Jan. (8,9 and 15th) so xmas comes down before I go back to work in order to be cleaned up for the birthdays. So, I am ok to start with Christmas early this year! Have a blessed holiday and I covet any prayers you could send our way for our oldest boy. 😊
I will absolutely be praying for your son as well as for your family!!!❤️
Love your humor. You make me giggle. Another great floss tube. Also your hair always looks great, but I understand. 😊
Oh thank you!
A pleasure watching your videos. Your stitching is beautiful and so are your quilts.
Thank you so much!
Always a great video …thoroughly enjoy seeing your beautiful stitching… and your quilts are a piece of pure joy!
Thank you so much!
Carol, as always, i enjoy our time together so much. I'm sure that most of your viewers feel the same way. We anxiously await each new posting. I new it was a lot of work, but hearing you review all it really takes was astounding!! I do appreciate so much the time you and the professor spend for our enjoyment. I loved everything you shared . Can't even begin to pick a favorite. I can already see the pumpkin window quilt hanging admidst your fall decor. It was so cute. Continue to enjoy your stitchings and quilting. Til we meet next time, ❤ya. , Donna
Thanks so much, you’re very kind!!
You two crack me up😂. You are such an enabler! By the way, love your hair! Good thing I always make sure I have a piece of paper and pencil to write down all the charts I “need!”
Love that! Thank you!!
"I don't want to buy more than I can stitch." LOL Of course you realize it's too late!!! You're a riot!!!! Happy stitching!
So true! A moment of pure insanity!!
Hello Carol, I must stitch some (as many as possible?) of your lovely Fall stitching finishes.
Perhaps I’ll work on some of them now for next Autumn, and the next as well. Your fiber selection gets me every time! Love you and you dear Husband too Carol! Thank you both…
And thank you for watching!!
I love ol’ Mr. Saltbox’s mini-lectures! He reminded me of the CB radio my parents kept, and how they’d use it to talk to truckers when we were traveling between states to visit family. ❤ Good childhood times!
Great video. I cracked up when you talked about 12 days of Christmas. So funny.
Love that sweet Turkey Trot 😢
I have watched you for a long time but this is my first comment. I just love your husband’s humor. He definitely brings a smile to my face.
I adore the beginning, you and the Mr. are the best!!
Thank you!
I stitched And Heaven and Nature Sing last year. I think it is my favorite stitch so far. It stayed up all year. One thing to consider is if the lightest green thread will show up on your fabric. Love your videos. They always make me smile.
Thanks for the tip. I’m going to use the called for linen so hopefully it will show!
Great to visit with you today. I loved seeing your fall finishes. Last Thursday I uploaded a video of fall FFOs from BBD Winds of Autumn and When the Leaves Fall…I have had so much fun stitching out of those books and look forward to stitching more. So many Christmas ornaments to stitch, too…I have pulled out some old Just Cross-Stitch Christmas Ornaments magazines and started stitching some fun ones. Take care and Happy Stitching😊🍁🧵🪡 10-4
Sounds great! I look forward to watching!!!
I absolutely love each and every video you share. Thank you for sharing your never-ending talent and fabulous personality with us all. I always see so many new patterns that become "must haves", like we all need just only one project. But like they say never say never. Hopefully tomorrow brings us all another 24 hours and hopefully some stitching time. Your quilts are lovely and loving each and every one of them. The wool piece is exceptional. I so appreciate your (and hubby's) time putting together your videos. I see from all the comments - We LOVE them all! Look forward to seeing you soon. Hugs to all. Pamela A/PA
Thanks so much!!
I love how your husband cares for you and your hobby..he’s a keeper
Hi Carol, your stitching looks great. Gone batty is too cute. Have a great weekend.
Thank you! You too!
Good morning, Carol. I have watched your videos forever and look forward to each new one. I rarely comment as I watch on my TV and am unable to comment from there and then forget when I'm on my computer. However, this episode stopped me in my tracks when you mentioned a new floss tuber named justsewsherry. As you can see that is my you tube and instagram name, but I didn't make a video. I was so surprised there was another "me" out there. Lol. The difference is in the spelling of sherrie. I searched out her video and only had a few minutes to watch but will go back and watch my other me.
And I like others chuckled when you said you don't want to get more than you can stitch. I'm a quilter also and between stitching and quilting supplies I'm good to at least age 150. Also please compliment your husband on his excellent editing skills. My husband makes you tube videos for his motorcycle hobby, and I know how much time it takes. And yours are top notch.
What a coincidence that there are on TH-cam Just sew sherry and just sew Sherri. I bet that did shock you when I said that. Too funny. 🤣
Love watching your floss tubes, your work on your cross stich and quilting is just so beautiful. I'm so busy gathering all the info on most everything you show, My wish list is becoming its own book. Look forward to seeing your progress and new starts.
Thank you so much!
Oh my goodness, Carol, everything you showed is so beautiful. Your stitching and quilting is exquisite and I always enjoy watching all of your videos. This particular time, I was feeling pretty good that I wasn't adding to my list of charts that I wanted to get because several that you showed I already had. Then by the end of your video, I lost that little bit of smugness and added several more to my list. Oh well, seeing all the beautiful things just gets me every time. Thank you so much for sharing another great stitching update. I hope you have a very happy Halloween.
Thanks so much!!!
Lead me not into temptation…I don’t want to have more than I can stitch”! 😂😂😂 Oh that was a good laugh!!!! Corn Maze looks snuggly.
Carol - I always enjoy a cuppa coffee and visit with ya!! Be well and thank Mr SB for all the work he puts in for our enjoyment 😊
Thank you kindly!
I look for your floss tube all the time. I enjoy your husband and how wonderful it is to watch all his work…. You both are a team.
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for a very enjoyable video. I am always so inspired by your beautiful work. Honestly I am a Carol wanna be in the stitching and quilting world. Have a wonderful week, or two! Happy Stitching!
Aww thanks!
Oh my goodness .. serial commentor here😂 I’m stitching away and not looking right then and I hear this terrific crunching wrapper noise! I KNEW it was Professor Saltbox before I even looked and when I looked up the look on your face ! I just snorted!! 😂 😂😂😂 it was EXACLTY what I would have looked like if it were me 😂😂😂😂 ok stitch related comments coming at the end. Time to carry on….
He always decides to snack when I’m recording. 😜😬🤷🏻♀️
Cracks me up 😂
Absolutely gorgeous finishes.. cross stitch and quilts!!! Nothing wrong finishing a project ten years later😊 I so enjoy your videos!!! God bless
Thank you so much!
So glad to see you again!
Love all your stitching, you’re a great enabler and inspiration!😉 28:26
Oh thank you!
Carol, you always make me laugh. I’m POSITIVE I already have more patterns then I can ever stitch, but my other hobby is SHOPPING for new stash. I also kit things up and then decide to change the fabric I originally selected!!🤦♀️🤷♀️ Keep stitching good-buddy! 10-4
Thank you!
So many lovelies! Adore the quilts!
Awesome, awesome, awesome! Thank you for another great video. Loved everything. Have a great week!
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for making a big mess every time you make a video. I just love your videos, and your husband is a gem. I also watch Lawyer You Know and yes, he is easy on the eyes. Blessings and take care.
Thank you so much!
Fabulous ❤ and funny as always 😊
Thank you 😁
Love your pumpkin quilts ❤
Love your hair longer Carol!!!
Thanks my friend!!!
I look forward to all of your videos. Your production assistant is charming. He is so supportive of your needlework.
Thank you so much!
Thank you for another wonderful flosstube!❤
I was stitching Turkey Trot while watching you, and then you popped up your pattern! 🫨.
Love when you have stitching and quilts! I quilt too.
Hi to Professor Saltbox 🤗.
That was nice he brought you the candy corn...😅
Up here in Kansas on the border of MO, they are talking about ❄️ ❄️!
Don't ya just miss getting snow? Lol
Take care
I miss being inside and seeing the beautiful snow outside especially when I don’t have to go out!!!❤️
You are so funny! I’m sure you won’t believe me, but I love your hair! But I get it bc I’m the same way! We all know what our hair “should” look like! I can’t wait until your videos come out, makes my day! AND, your hubby is a hoot!
Oh thank you!
I gift everything I stitch. That's part of my joy in stitching. So, I always take a photo worthy of a pattern cover for myself and my friends on FB to enjoy.
That's a great idea!
The problem with that is I will never be able to do a Floss Tube. I have nothing to show. 😅
Carol, you always ask us to consider subscribing to your channel and I wanted you to know I'd subscribe everytime. I just love your flosstube.
Yay! Thank you!
Loved seeing everything. Have a great week Love ya too🥰
Thanks so much
Thanks, Carol, for sharing once again! Several of the fall stitching you showed are in my fall stash too. I am working on The Gather Inn( while watching) & have Olga's stocking, Moonlight Garden started too. I have stitched Heaven & Nature Sing( an actual FFO). I LOVE IT! And yes he IS a BIG deer.
Sounds great! I can’t wait to start Heaven and Nature Sing!!! I loved stitching Gather Inn. ❤️
I just love your floss tube! AND your husband loves you so much to edit and make a beautiful floss tube for our enjoyment. You should let him say hi to us on camera sometime! He brings you coffee and candy corn. So thoughtful. And you Carol, as our cousin says, are the OG of cross stitch!!!!
Thank you so much!
Just your opening music and pictures make me smile. Then the two of you come on! Great idea about taking a picture of a stitch you’re going to gift! I too find it harder to stitch on bigger threaded cloth. I can’t count it as easily as the 40 and 46 ct, go figure. My needle feels like a large tree branch yet it still falls out of the larger holes and unthreads on its way down. I’m surprised I still can automatically railroad the two threads of floss. Yes, I’m working on a large 25 ct lugana project for our new granddaughter. My idea was terrific 30 years ago but not so comfortable now. 30 years ago to the year I was stitching her daddy’s stocking. Stitching on Moonlit Garden right now just to keep my sanity while working on the great idea of a stocking! It’s on 36 ct which is a better count. I can see “ I don’t want to get more than I can stitch.” on all crafters’ tombstones. Then there needs to be a picture of what we left behind! Thanks for sharing your quilts and wool projects. I just fully finished a shop sample block of the month from 2011. I’m a handquilter but I calculated and found that the amount of unquilted tops from the Shoppe and before the Shoppe would outlast me even if my hands, eyes and brain lasted well into my 90’s if I hand quilted them all. So to machine quilter I went and it feels wonderful to have it on my bed totally finished. From the time I dropped it off to collection was just about a week and I think two day! Amazing.
Another gem of a video, and I totally understand the time it takes having to put things away after a video. I have a tiny amount after my tiny videos, so I can hardly imagine what your post-recording tasks must be. Thanks for doing it, though - I love seeing everything and often take a note of something that I want to look for!
Thanks so much!!!
Thanks Carol I’ve been enjoying your flosstube. Stitches, quilting whatever your doing. I want to attempt my first wool project. I’ve never done one before. Katie recommended a buttermilk basin book I think I can do. Happy stitching.
You can do it! Absolutely!!!
Sweet baby Jesus. It’s taken me nearly 2 weeks to build up the courage to just say Thank you for mentioning me. I’m just in awe of you ❤
Hahaha! You’re too funny. Trust me, I’m just a stitcher, no awe needed. ❤️
Such beautiful stitching, Carol. I don’t quilt but your quilts take my breath away. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much!
When you show things you can’t get anymore, it just reminds me to get the things I love now-within reason😂. Has there always been so many wonderful choices? I need to know how to pace myself!
I think we are so fortunate to have so many wonderful choices in charts, linens and floss. And Blackbird Designs is rereleasingso many of their oop charts. Just fabulous!!
This is the best flosstube of all year! I loved everything you showed and it gives me stitchy goals! That would be to have lots of crossstitch everywhere! Autumn is my favourite season!
Thank you so much!
Thank you so very much Carol for sharing such amazing pieces and charts and quilts. I so look forward to you stitching and showing the 12 days of Christmas on that gorgeous fabric. xoxo
Thank you so much!
Oh Carol you inspire me so! I love all your finishes and starts! I am so impressed that you get so much done! How do you do it? Beautiful stitching too. I get so revved up to stitch more after I watch one of your videos Thank you for sharing with all of us!
Thank you so much!
Thank you for showing the backing fabric and sharing the trim details on the pillows and small finishes. I am always looking for inspiration on finishes. So tempted to pull "Moonlit Garden" out of my stash of old Blackbird Loose Feathers kits. I bought them as 'stash therapy' from Old Mill Stitchery in KC when my son was deployed (USMC) and they all went directly into the stash LOL. I'm trying to pull one or two out every year and finish them and whenever I see one of the original Loose Feathers pieces up on your wall, I get inspired all over again. "Moon Garden" and "Their Song" are up on my walls thanks to you.
I hope to eventually get them all stitched. They’re so timeless and beautiful!!!
We had our first snow here in northern CO and today was a nice day for a "visit" from you while stitching in my cozy stitching nest. I love seeing all your stitchy and quilts projects and, of course, hearing from your DH.
Thanks so much!!!
You are fantastic! Love to watch you videos! ❤❤
Thank you so much!
