So, I just found your Floss tube. Decided to start with episode #1 and catch up with your most current episodes over the next couple of weeks. Love how the DMC floss looks on your samplers.
Hi Rachel just popped over to check out your first flosstube 🤣🤣🤣I really enjoyed watching you😁you did fine! Just received an order of your linen and it’s BEAUTIFUL ❤️thank you
Thank you Dee!! I recognize your name from your order! I'm so glad you finally got it. Thank you for your patience, I really appreciate it!! I'm getting better at the flosstube videos, it gets easier each time. Tomorrow I'm filming flosstube number 6!! I just have to remember to speak loudly, it's weird talking to your self in a camera... 🤣🤣 thanks for watching!! ❤️
Hi, my first flosstube of yours. If Brenda and Laura talk about someone it’s usually my go to flosstube. Great 👍. Really enjoyed. I do have 3 of your fabrics, which I love. Will definitely follow you.
Hi Rachel, if Laura and Brenda shouted you out. So I had to follow. Have several of your fabrics, they are beautiful, have not stitch on them yet. Enjoyed your flosstube and will definitely follow. Thanks 🙏.
Oh my goodness you remind me of my second daughter.Uncanny even your mannerisms. I just keep staring at you. I do enjoy your floss tube too. Beautiful stitching and great dyed fabric.
Oh, hello new stitchy friend, welcome to the land of Flosstube. I think you a great job on your first video. That was the hardest one. You are on your way. I look forward to seeing your linen. I promise to share about you and your new channel on my next video. Oh, I somehow magically....your perfect sense of humor slipped through the computer screen and made me giggle. Happy Stitching, Sew Grateful that I stumbled upon you and your beautiful stitching, your new friend, Daleen
Oh Daleen!! I watch your flosstube and know just who you are, friend. Your comment is so kind and heartwarming just as you are on your flosstube. I'm so darn glad you watched!! ❤❤❤
Hi Rachel. My sister, Julie, below told me about you. You did a great job for a first floss tube. I'm also from Cadillac. I will be checking out your fabric.
Thanks for watching Dalene!! I have been to Cadillac many times for my kids sporting events and even for a little thrift store shopping 😉 it's nice to know my Michigan "neighbors" are watching! ❤
Carol at Salt Box Stitcher recommended you in her yesterday video and I immediately checked out your lovely linen colors. I will be placing an order with you soon. Loved your first video as you have similar tastes in samplers to mine. I also use the same bags as you and I do not spend time putting thread on floss drops---my goodness, I need that time to stitch! Have a wonderful holiday season and look forward to more videos. Norma in Boise, ID
Hello Rachel, Carol the Saltbox Stitcher sent me over your way. Wow another HATS stitcher. Yessss! Love your samplers. It was so nice to find a linen fabric dyer. I like your idea of having threads along with your fabrics. I love stitching 28 and 32 count 1 over 1, lol doesn't really work for some patterns but does create some interesting smalls!
Hi Rachel....Pam and Steph shouted you out. 🙋♀️ I am an Aida girl...i would be interested in 20 count if you plan to dye. Good job on your first flosstube.👍🏻😉
Thanks for letting me know!! Maybe 20 count Aida is what I will order to practice on..that will be happening in the very near future. Thanks so much for watching!! ❤
Hi Rachel! Carol is always talking about you so I thought I better get over here and check you out! I’m hooked! Love your stitching and your birthday is the same as my sons! Loved hearing that you stitched so many with DMC!
I enjoyed your floss tube. It’s nice to know there is another fabric option. Love your colors. Also love that you are like me-no time or enjoyment in combing floss and winding and cutting it and having fancy card drops and a fortune in project bags! I put projects in plastic bags and trays so I can see what is there. Keep the floss tubes coming!
Hi Rachel. You did very well on your first flosstube. I also heard about you from Brenda and Laura. Looking forward to future videos. I live in southeast Michigan.
I am a new subscriber! I heard about you on Carol(salt box stitcher). I LOVE the things you have stitched and are stitching! I love samplers, my wish list is growing by the minute! I have so many of these already! I just need to get busy and stitch them!
This was a super first video. Your stitching is very nice and I loved all your fabrics. Plus we definitely have the same taste as some of these patterns I don’t have and now have to go buy (thanks for the enable). Looking forward to trying your linens and your next floss tube.
Watching very late to the game, but I love your gentle spirit and without sounding weird, you are truly beautiful and I love your gorgeous hair! You did a wonderful job! 💜
Just watched your first video and honored you chose my Mary Green. Ashton School amongst your many other lovely sampler choices! Just started a new design on your Brea and love your muted sampler linens!❤️keep sharing!
You r funny. So down to earth. Love the samplers,wips,future projects. Heard about by from Brenda and Laura. Fabric looks great.,I'll need to order. See by next time. We all have plastic baggies✂️📍🌻
Well great first video. You definitely don’t appear nervous or awkward! Love your stitching and fabric. And also lol love your hair. Watched Sew Grateful who sent me over to check you out!
Loved your video! I heard about you from Theresa Kogut's latest video where she talked about you and showed some of the linens she ordered. Your wips are all beautiful. Looking forward to checking out your website soon.
You live in a beautiful place! Enjoyed your video, but could not hear all of what you were saying, unfortunately. Please keep going! Was grateful to discover you from Just Keep Stitchin'.
Thank you!! I absolutely do live in a beautiful place.. I love it and plan on never leaving! I'm definitely going to be speaking up A LOT on the next video 😁 hope you watch the next one! ❤
My stars you don’t even look 28. I’m looking forward to future episodes and your work is beautiful. I love that you use DMC, we forget how beautiful they can be. On a side note, I love the green bowl behind you. So glad my friend told me about your channel.
Oh Betty, I'm going to have to show my teenagers this comment. They seem to think I'm the oldest looking gal on the planet. I guess when they wake up looking fresh and nothing sags, the perspective is different!! 🤣🤣 I'm so glad you watched and your kind comment made my day ❤
Hi from Louisiana, Rachel! I’m so happy that you popped up in my feed…that’s how I found you 🙂. I wanted to wait till I’d watched the entire video before commenting, but I couldn’t…there was just too much goodness going on! I love how genuine you are. I already paused the video to go check out your website, and already placed an order. Your fabrics are gorgeous, and I love the names! I’m only at 10:23, so now I’ll continue enjoying the rest of your visit! Thank you 🙏 Meline
@@needleandflaxflosstube3647 so agree...that border was so fun. Now I look for it with others. I am doing Isabella Johnstone because the other son's birthday us June 13th. The dates are a fun draw.
Great first flosstube. I admire all your beautiful Stitches. Your fabrics look beautiful, just made a purchase!! Can I just add that your hair is absolutely amazing.... jealous. Looking forward to more videos and to receiving my linen. Regards, Kathy
Great first video! Your voice is so calming. I enjoyed watching all of your current projects and the ones you hope to stitch. Looking forward to your next video. Take care.
Hi Rachel! I found you through Carols Saltbox Stitcher. She said you had some really pretty pieces, and indeed you do! I think your first Flosstube was amazing! You may have felt awkward, but you did not come across as awkward. I will definitely check out your linens and your next videos!
Hello Rachel! Welcome to Flosstube. I had seen your website, but did not know you would do a video until Brenda and Laura mentioned it. I really like your linen colors since I am predominantly a sampler and primitives stitcher. I hope to order some of your line in the coming months. Best wishes for your business and Flosstube videos!
Hello fellow Michigander! Welcome to Flosstube. Great video! Oh boy…now that you’ve done your first video you’re going to be dying linen like nobody’s business! I checked out your website and I love your linen colors! I hope you keep doing videos. I’d love to watch your progress on your projects.
Hey Neighbor!! I AM dyeing linen like crazy and I love it!! I'm so glad you watched, I love your art and your flosstubes! Hope you watch the next one.. I'm gonna crank it up a notch 😂 ❤❤
I watched Brenda and Laura the Serial Stitcher Sunday. They were talking about you living in Traverse City. I live in Cedar, Michigan. Although I stitched in my youth I picked it back up last year. I stitch on Aida and would love to stitch on some nicely dyed cloth possibly Hemingway. If you decide to dye Aida I would be interested. I
Well I subscribed right away. I enjoyed your video very much and look forward to the next one. Your projects are my projects, you have incredible work. Michigan is my home state and I left my heart there as I now live in Indiana. I grew up on Lake Michigan in the southern part. The beauty where you live is amazing, I can only dream about it. I'm sure I will be ordering some linen too, I have bookmarked your website. Thanks for a great video!
Oh my goodness, thank you for watching!! Michigan is certainly a place that whittles its way into your heart doesn't it? Sometime I'll talk on my flosstube about my Michigan connections, even though I was born and raised in California, I now consider myself a Michigan girl!! ❤
Hi Rachel…thank you for your podcast..awesome…congratulations on coming to FlossTube…love that you dye fabric too…I know about commitments with children and house…if I could get each person that made the mess, clean up the mess and wash their own clothes, I would have so much more time to stitch…and I do want to stitch…wish you joy and happy stitching/dyeing…Happy Thanksgiving…see you when you do your next podcast❣️
Wonderful video!!! Beautiful beautiful stitching!!! So glad I found you!!! Love the cupboard behind you and, like a lot of us, love your hair. Can’t wait for the next video!!!!
Absolutely love what you are stitching. I just started back stitching newly disabled, I started back when my oldest daughter was born in 83 and stopped going through divorce loosing all of my crafts. You did a awesome job on the video!! I have never bought linen I have been using Aida, I am going to have check out your shop love love your dying work. Have a awesome day!
Thank you so much for the kind words, glad you are back to stitching and hopefully soon I'll be dyeing Aida.. I started on Aida and would love to be able to offer some to the Aida stitchers! ❤
You are a natural once you start talking talking about your stitched pieces! You may feel awkward but it doesn’t come across that way at all- and you are obviously an accomplished stitcher who has a passion for the craft. I had to pause the video and go buy some fabric so you are a good enabler for your linen too🤩. I bought the Endora -( love the discount, of course,) and the Brea. I think you get an amazing amount of stitching done considering 3 kids, your dyeing job and life- do you stitch in hand? You obviously aren’t intimidated by large samplers, so I don’t think a FT will intimidate you going forward either😊. Thanks for sharing!
Oh Susan, you are making me blush 😊 lol. I think once I get used to talking to myself in an empty room. I'll get a little more comfortable with it. 😂😂 I'm probably going to do another video next weekend for some practice. I actually stitch in a hoop, I've tried other ways, but learned on the hoop and it's what I like best. I saw your order thus morning and have already been dyeing since 6am this morning! When your order ships, you'll get an email with tracking... I hope you like it!! 🤞🏻❤
Hi Rachelle!!! Welcome to flosstube! You did great! I’m so excited to find you! I love all the samplers you showed and I’m going to check out your linen!
Hello Kristie!! You are so nice!! I have to admit, I've binge watched your flosstube a few times.. not in a stalker kinda way, but a needing inspiration kinda way. 🤣🤣 I'm so glad you watched and liked it, I'm posting another video this weekend. I feel I need a do over and I'm gonna up my game. 😂❤ Can't wait to see your next video!!
Found you through other flosstubers and I'm so glad! Love. Love. Love samplers. I'll have to check out your linens. Had trouble hearing you a bit but so enjoyed your first video! 😁
Great flosstube....looking forward to your next one. Love your wips! Hope you dye some Lugana. Your fabric colors look perfect for samplers.. Can't wait to try some. 🙂
I knew soon in to your video that I would be subscribing quickly. Love your stitching and your charts are right up my likes. Just really enjoyed you and seeing all of your wonderful pieces. I’m already looking up your fabrics. Really liked the Endora.
Must ask, I have always started in center of pattern, but understand some stitchers start in upper left corner. Do the new patterns give finished sizes of their pieces? I’m so afraid of running off the fabric at some point.
Hi Joan!! Thanks so much for watching!! Yes, the newer patterns usually give the completed stitch size and some also give you a size of fabric to purchase with a 3 inch margin around the stitching. I also used to start in the middle, but switched to starting in the upper left There are cross stitch calculators online to help figure out how big your fabric should be so you don't run out of room, that helps when math is not a strong suit ( I use a calculator ) 😂.
I enjoyed your first video, you did a great job! I too, love to stitch samplers and after looking at your site I’ll be ordering some of your beautiful hand dyed linen! Nice to see a fellow Michigander doing floss tubes! 😻
You did a great job! I use plastic bags and no floss drops. I want to do Hawk Run on 36ct but thought it would be too big until I saw yours, awesome! I'm starting mine next week. Love your samplers. I found you through Pam & Steph's Flosstube. Beautiful dyed linen! I'm looking forward to your Flosstube #2. I'm a fan!
Aww, Gwen, you are too sweet!! Hawk run is pretty fun to stitch.. you are gonna love it!! I'm so glad you watched my video!! I'm doing another one soon, so watch for it!! ❤❤
Enjoyed watching your 1st video I found you through Pam and Steph. Love all your previous finishes and your wips. Have a wonderful Week and happy stitching 😊🧵🪡🤗🤩
Just found your video today thanks to Pam & Steph. The video was great and I went and ordered a couple fabrics to try. I need the fabrics for when I get my "case of the Lauras". 🤣
Good job !! Loved it ! “A serious case of the Laura’s” 😂😂 so fun it’s like having a new friend over for coffee and stitchy chat. And for those of whose friends dont stitch it’s extra special. Thanks for being brave and putting yourself out there !
I just ADORE your choices, and, you have the most beautiful HAIR, i am so jealous, I have been ATTEMPTING to transition but nope, you got me, the color will be jumping out of the storage closet. Thank you for sharing so much with us
Hi Rachel really enjoyed your first video! Love your selection of projects. I would love it if you dyed aida as this is what I stitch on. Do you ship to the UK or will you be supplying UK based shops. Best wishes Natalie
I'm hoping to add Aida to my dye rotation at some point!! I don't sell to the UK right now, but some shops that carry my linen certainly do ship overseas!!
Just found you today under my suggested…..love your linens! Can’t wait to see more, I’ve just started stitching on linen. We have friends that live near Traverse City - they used to be our neighbors down here in AL. Good job on your 1st video - will be waiting for #2! Until then I will follow on IG😉
Great first flosstube! Bravo. Watched #2 send #1 while I prepped Thanksgiving dinner tonight. Linens are gorgeous. Not many of us, but I love Tom & Jerry sets almost as much as T&J parties. Cheers! You made me howl when you pulled out the TP from Who Gives a Crap. Love it! BTW, you rock!
So, I just found your Floss tube. Decided to start with episode #1 and catch up with your most current episodes over the next couple of weeks. Love how the DMC floss looks on your samplers.

Absolutely love what you are stitching. I just started back stitching newly disabled, I started back when my oldest daughter was born in 83 and stopped going through divorce loosing all of my crafts. You did a awesome job on the video!! I have never bought linen I have been using Aida, I am going to have check out your shop love love your dying work. Have a awesome day!
Thank you so much for the kind words, glad you are back to stitching and hopefully soon I'll be dyeing Aida.. I started on Aida and would love to be able to offer some to the Aida stitchers! ❤
Just ordered some beautiful fabrics from you- so happy to support your small business!
Thank you so much!! I'm so glad you watched! ❤
You were also recommended by Carol, Salt Box Stitcher. Enjoyed your video!
Thank you!! ❤
You are a natural once you start talking talking about your stitched pieces! You may feel awkward but it doesn’t come across that way at all- and you are obviously an accomplished stitcher who has a passion for the craft. I had to pause the video and go buy some fabric so you are a good enabler for your linen too🤩. I bought the Endora -( love the discount, of course,) and the Brea. I think you get an amazing amount of stitching done considering 3 kids, your dyeing job and life- do you stitch in hand? You obviously aren’t intimidated by large samplers, so I don’t think a FT will intimidate you going forward either😊. Thanks for sharing!
Oh Susan, you are making me blush 😊 lol. I think once I get used to talking to myself in an empty room. I'll get a little more comfortable with it. 😂😂 I'm probably going to do another video next weekend for some practice. I actually stitch in a hoop, I've tried other ways, but learned on the hoop and it's what I like best. I saw your order thus morning and have already been dyeing since 6am this morning! When your order ships, you'll get an email with tracking... I hope you like it!! 🤞🏻❤
Hi Rachelle!!! Welcome to flosstube! You did great! I’m so excited to find you! I love all the samplers you showed and I’m going to check out your linen!
Hello Kristie!! You are so nice!! I have to admit, I've binge watched your flosstube a few times.. not in a stalker kinda way, but a needing inspiration kinda way. 🤣🤣 I'm so glad you watched and liked it, I'm posting another video this weekend. I feel I need a do over and I'm gonna up my game. 😂❤ Can't wait to see your next video!!
Found you through other flosstubers and I'm so glad! Love. Love. Love samplers. I'll have to check out your linens. Had trouble hearing you a bit but so enjoyed your first video! 😁
Thank you!! The volume is much better in my second video... I realized I needed to speak up a bit 😂😂 thank you so much for watching! ❤
Loved your video I had coffee with you this morning. Will be checking out your linen cant wait to try it.. loved your hutch.
Thanks Terri!! I hope you love your linen order. Let's have coffee together again soon! 😉
For sure
Great flosstube....looking forward to your next one. Love your wips! Hope you dye some Lugana. Your fabric colors look perfect for samplers.. Can't wait to try some. 🙂
Thanks so much Melody!! I'm glad you watched and liked it!! I'll be expanding my fabrics slowly but surely, so keep an eye out! ❤
I knew soon in to your video that I would be subscribing quickly. Love your stitching and your charts are right up my likes. Just really enjoyed you and seeing all of your wonderful pieces. I’m already looking up your fabrics. Really liked the Endora.
Aww, thank you so much for the sweet comments!! I'm glad you liked it!! ❤
Doing great job, heard about you from just cross stitching...
Thank you so much!! ❤
Must ask, I have always started in center of pattern, but understand some stitchers start in upper left corner. Do the new patterns give finished sizes of their pieces? I’m so afraid of running off the fabric at some point.
Hi Joan!! Thanks so much for watching!! Yes, the newer patterns usually give the completed stitch size and some also give you a size of fabric to purchase with a 3 inch margin around the stitching. I also used to start in the middle, but switched to starting in the upper left
There are cross stitch calculators online to help figure out how big your fabric should be so you don't run out of room, that helps when math is not a strong suit ( I use a calculator ) 😂.
I enjoyed your first video, you did a great job! I too, love to stitch samplers and after looking at your site I’ll be ordering some of your beautiful hand dyed linen!
Nice to see a fellow Michigander doing floss tubes! 😻
Hi neighbor!! I'm glad to hear from Michigan stitchers!! I'm so glad you watched!! ❤❤
Your work is beautiful
Thank you!! ❤
I am subscribed! I can read all of your projects and it seems it may just backward for you! I will be ordering some of your fabric!
😂😂 I guess it worked out just fine, but in the camera everything is backwards!! It was really throwing me off!! Thanks so much for watching! ❤
You did a great job! I use plastic bags and no floss drops. I want to do Hawk Run on 36ct but thought it would be too big until I saw yours, awesome! I'm starting mine next week. Love your samplers. I found you through Pam & Steph's Flosstube. Beautiful dyed linen! I'm looking forward to your Flosstube #2. I'm a fan!
Aww, Gwen, you are too sweet!! Hawk run is pretty fun to stitch.. you are gonna love it!! I'm so glad you watched my video!! I'm doing another one soon, so watch for it!! ❤❤
Excellent first video. Your stitching is beautiful and I look forward to seeing more of it on the next instalment.
Thank you so much Sandy!! ❤
Enjoyed watching your 1st video I found you through Pam and Steph. Love all your previous finishes and your wips.
Have a wonderful Week and happy stitching 😊🧵🪡🤗🤩
Thanks for watching Theresa and happy stitching to you too! 😘
Just found your video today thanks to Pam & Steph. The video was great and I went and ordered a couple fabrics to try. I need the fabrics for when I get my "case of the Lauras". 🤣
So glad you watched AND placed an order.. getting a case of the Laura's can be a costly illness 🤣🤣 but it's a fun one to catch 😉
Hi cousin!! Excellent flosstube debut! I am now a repeat Flax and Linen customer because your fabrics are amazing and you validated hoarding.
I think hoarding runs in the blood.. 😂😂 thanks for watching Robin!!
Good job !! Loved it ! “A serious case of the Laura’s” 😂😂 so fun it’s like having a new friend over for coffee and stitchy chat. And for those of whose friends dont stitch it’s extra special. Thanks for being brave and putting yourself out there !
I'm so glad you had coffee with me Renee!! ❤ thanks for the sweet comments!
@@needleandflaxflosstube3647 of course now I have to buy fabric gahhhhhh 😳😳😳😳
Your stitching is absolutely beautiful. I look forward to seeing many more of your projects and videos. Welcome to Floss tube, you will be great🤩
Thank you so much Debbie!
I just ADORE your choices, and, you have the most beautiful HAIR, i am so jealous, I have been ATTEMPTING to transition but nope, you got me, the color will be jumping out of the storage closet. Thank you for sharing so much with us
Well thank you!! I grew that hair myself!! 🤣🤣 thanks so much for watching and commenting! I'm glad you liked the video and my stitching!
Your linen is beautiful. Do you dye Aida? I checked your web site, didn’t see any.
Hi Rachel really enjoyed your first video! Love your selection of projects. I would love it if you dyed aida as this is what I stitch on. Do you ship to the UK or will you be supplying UK based shops. Best wishes Natalie
I'm hoping to add Aida to my dye rotation at some point!! I don't sell to the UK right now, but some shops that carry my linen certainly do ship overseas!!
Daleen from Sew Grateful sent me your way. Nice to meet you.
Just found you today under my suggested…..love your linens! Can’t wait to see more, I’ve just started stitching on linen. We have friends that live near Traverse City - they used to be our neighbors down here in AL. Good job on your 1st video - will be waiting for #2! Until then I will follow on IG😉
Thank you!! ❤
Great job! Love your samplers! Found you through Pam & Steph!! Next - to your website!
Thank you so much!! ❤
Great first flosstube! Bravo. Watched #2 send #1 while I prepped Thanksgiving dinner tonight. Linens are gorgeous. Not many of us, but I love Tom & Jerry sets almost as much as T&J parties. Cheers! You made me howl when you pulled out the TP from Who Gives a Crap. Love it! BTW, you rock!
Thank you so much!! ❤ Happy Thanksgiving!!
