Not sure if anyone replied earlier; but a "pill bug" is what we in the US call a rollie pollie. Those little bugs that when we touch them they roll into a ball. Great to see you back. All the best.
Been doing taxes since I graduated from Ohio State and went to work at Price Waterhouse in the Tax Department..Saltbox refers to you all so often I decided to check your flosstube out. Its great!!

Hi Girls! Fantastic floss tube, as always ❤ Thank you also for sharing the info on Nicola's meeting with Rebecca Scott - it was incredibly informative and interesting! I never knew about the young girls in the orphanages learning stitching / needlework skills! It's so fascinating that some of them can be traced back through the Samplers they've left us! Really enjoyed watching their video ❤ You gals are such an inspiration to all of us. Hang in there during any sad times you have - you know we all have your backs and will support you through any hard times! ❤❤❤ Be gentle with yourselves and Happy Stitching! 🩷🌷🩷🌷🩷
So many beautiful shares - and loved that you spoke about the BAP from Needlework - and the linen and how we do have enough - starting mine today. Happy Stitching.🥰
Great to see you back! My LNS is Hobby House, I'm hoping to go to the new store this weekend! They do have the toweling you were looking for in the fabric shop there, that's where I got mine. Thanks for sharing all your new treasures!
Catching up on Floss Tubes. I hope you’re doing and feeling better. Loved all the stitching. WOW!!! Totally enjoyed the haul segment. Lots of stitching to be done ladies.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who buys double patterns because I like therm so much! Beautiful stitching, and LOVE te haul. I followed alot of site for Nashville Releases, but you guys found some that I never saw
It's so great to see both of you!! Brenda, I hope things are better for you but am so glad you were able to escape to your stitching. Laura, your visit with your dad sounds like it was amazing! You are both such an inspiration and just spread so much joy!! Loved seeing the market hall and loved both of your finished samplers!!! Thanks as always and happy stitching!
Hello! It's so great to see you both. Thank you for always lifting my spirit. I absolutely love all your projects. I'm going to the Attic in Nov when we visit family in Phoenix. I plan to get sampler patterns. Right now I'm loving HATS. Have a great week!
I hope things are going better for you. So many things seem askew and it makes one want to stay in a crafting bubble. I loved seeing all of your market and non market purchases. So much inspiration! You bring so much joy to us all!! I am expecting a wonderful package from The Attic where I hope to branch out on the Marchpane 48 count. My suggestion for the mice - get a cat. 😁
Mary Collier 1814 Sampler oh my goodness it is gorgeous! Those vibrant colors soooo I need to go to see who has it in stock. Perhaps The Attic? The video today was so much fun seeing your stitching, hearing of your Washington visit Laura and the many little pokes and jabs in fun between you both makes my heart happy! Brenda you shall be in my prayers for whatever need you may have. God is good and loves you ❤
Yay...... so glad to see you girls.... always enjoy all your stuff and fun. Hope you have happier days, Brenda. Honestly, Laura , you’re a hot ticket. Always make me smile😊
Love watching you both and the fun you have, love the laughs. Your stitching is beautiful and your knowledge of fabrics used. You are both an inspiration. Hope ypu are doing better with your situations. Thank you for sharing.
It was so great to see you both, you have been missed! Laura, I am glad that you had a wonderful trip to see your dad. Brenda, I don’t know what has been going on, but I do hope things are better now. Spring should hopefully help with longer days, sunshine, and warmer weather! You both are such special ladies, and I will keep you in my prayers. It goes without saying that I always enjoy your stitching projects, and of course seeing all of the goodies you have purchased! This was a great haul seeing all of the things that caught your eye from Market! Take care and God Bless you both! ❤
Great video!! Brenda Holsman is my local stitchy friend! I’ve learned so much from her and count her as one of my very best friends! She does beautiful work! Great haul! I love seeing what you two stitch and buy! 😊 Barbara
Another wonderful flosstube. Sorry for your sad times I am glad you are both back. When I was working my stash budget was endless. Now that I am retired my budget is more fixed so I shop vicariously through you. Thanks and keep it up ❤
So glad to see you two again. I just love spending time with you. You got some amazing haul that I hadn't seen before. I can't wait to see which project is the imminent-est.
Pillbug is an interesting name for fabric! They are more commonly referred to in the US as "Rolie Polies." People usually only have to deal with them if there's a lot of dead vegetation around their home. Or if they bring potted plants in for the winter and don't use proper insecticides. They're not harmful, but I don't know that I'd name a fabric after them!!! 😂
I’m so happy to see you two pals of mine ( tho we haven’t actually met) I’m sorry times have been tough. Sending up a few prayers for comfort and peace of mind. Selfishly tho so happy to see you …just makes my day. I know you have your fave flosstubers also so you know how it is ❤❤❤❤ wishing you calm times ahead and wonderful stitching XO
So happy to see you both back again with all of your treasures. Thank you so much for showing some of my Nashville releases. So appreciated! Sending hugs as always🤗
What a wonderful time with the two of you. Sorry that you've had some rough days...praying for brighter days ahead. Can't wait to see your smiling faces again soon! xoxoxo
Another awesome video and amazing haul and all the stitchy pieces were beautiful!! I'm sorry you had a some sadness in your life Brenda. Never fun. I'm so happy that we all have this wonderful hobby where we can do to decompress and relax and watch flosstubes!
Love watching y’all. I literally laugh out loud with both of you. Thank you! I also got one of the beautiful wooden buttons from Michelle. I just love it!
It's always a lot of fun watching you ladies, but this video is the best (for enabling all of us!). I had to put you on pause on my tablet while I shopped on my phone! Well worth watching this again.
Ladies, ladies, ladies you bring us so much joy and laughter. I am so sorry times are tough for you now. Please know we love and care for you both. Thank you for being you...we are too old to start changing now. 😂❤❤❤
Buenos días sois geniales me divierto y aprendo con vosotras. Gracias por volver y ánimo en la vida pasan cosas pero para eso estamos, para superarlas. Un abrazo desde Sevilla España❤
So much eye candy you've shared with us! Holy moley! Beautiful wips and finishes. Brenda, don't let anyone or anything dull your sparkle. Laura, I'm glad your trip to see your Dad was wonderful. Your happy haul was fun to see. Happy stitching! ❤
Good to see you both… I trust the sadness you mention is mixed joy… Bittersweet memories.. Thank you 😊 for showing all your stash 😎 The DFT Danish flower thread 🧵 you showed is all Ive ever used, I have quite a few Samplers done with it… It’s not available:-(( in USA 🇺🇸 but I have a friend in Belgium 🇧🇪 that can get it :-)) Take care…. 😎☀️🌹
You both are the best. Thank you so much for all the encouragement and support. I so appreciate you two taking the time not only the time to watch me, to comment and then shout me out. Wow I am very humbled.
Glad you're back! Laura, I didn't get the BAP either, but while I'm watching you guys, I was scrolling Facebook, and Julie announced that the BAP will be offered again!
So good to see you both! I’m sorry life has been a trial. Am glad you find solace in your stitching. You both had excellent progress on your pieces! Great finishes, too! Love you guys. Hugs. ❤
Happy to see you both again! While I am watching you guys & stitching with my ear bud in, hubby is watching ladies basketball final! Thanks for sharing today!
So glad you both are back. Sorry about the trials you both have gone through. I laughed so hard when Laura said we were supporting the needlework industry….so now next is haul! My husband didn’t get the joke he just looked at me funny! I went way overboard on market releases. I am going to be calling the Attic to see if when we are in Phoenix I can stop in and get a couple of kits. I haven’t been to Phoenix in 40 years so we are making a vacation of visiting family and doing some site seeing. My cousin told me about a train that takes you to the Grand Canyon it’s already booked! After hearing so many people talk about the attic I want to make sure I get a chance to visit.
Ahhh dear Brenda... prayers and blessings for the days ahead. Have missed you both and am so glad to see you and Laura again, we've all been watching for you! I used to feel guilty tossing the little bit of remaining unused floss, but chances are replacement skeins may be different dye lots, which might not be such a good thing!! Wonderful video, as usual, Ladies! You do such beautiful work!! Blessings!!!
Hello ladies!!! Missed you!!!! Side note, Brenda, i must have been thinking of you!!! I also bought Grace Gill, and getting my threads and fabric tomorrow!!! Definite start, stat!!!!
Missed you. And I'm so glad that your stitching comforts you. It does foe me. Better than Xanax! Brenda....you have me thinking what you are up to. I'm sure it's scathingly brilliant! I have seen a "photo book" type with pages made of their cross stitching for someone to look thru. I hope that's it. And we can copy you lol. I have no idea how to start one. Glad to see your smiling faces and all the glorious stitching!
I missed you but glad you are back. Laura you need to finish your Modern Folk Embroidery piece. It is gorgeous! You both provide so much inspiration and your excitement brings me joy. Thank you.
Florence Mary Dickinson is my very first sampler!! I started it January 2023 and I’m still at the top. I totally love it, but like you said it’s intense!! You make me want to get it back out & stitch it. Thank you for encouraging me to!❤ seeing both of you.
I'm in love with the haul! I want it all! Hope all is well with both of you! Your hearts shine bright with compassion and love for others! Your humor gets me smiling every video! Thank you!!! 🩷
So glad to see you both again. I am sorry about whatever troubling thing is going on, Brenda. You certainly rose to the occasion in making this video - and I am grateful to both of you for making the effort and bringing such fun and joy to the rest of us! (And Laura, I have to be amazed that I will meet you next year! Wow!)
So happy to see you back. 😊 I am an Aussie and pill bugs are more commonly known as slaters. They are multilegged crustaceans, grey brown in colour that look like tiny armadillos. They feed on decaying organic material and you often find them when you lift up a pot plant. Good for the garden!
Holy Moly! I had to watch this twice to get "another" list going. Thought I got enough market haul, but no, wait, there is more! Another 20 items on the list. Yahoo! Thinking of both of you. Take care and happy stitching!
Brenda sending hugs and prayers to you for whatever has hurt your heart and soul. Hope things get better soon for you. Hugs and prayers for you Laura because i know when Brenda hurts it hurts you. Fantastic stitching and haul ladies ! I saw so many things i want to put on my wish list. Wishing you both happy days and happy stitching from Tennessee.
"We don't buy compulsively!" - said no cross stitcher ever!! LOLOL Brenda, Thank you for mentioning the information on the Charlotte Warrington Sampler to us all - I have this kit as well and ordered the aida - which is gorgeous btw, (so of course I had to put in a special order for more of the Aida in that color family from Mason Linens) - The aida I received was a yard, so I have more than enough fabric. Hearing what you said about what Nicola mentioned about counting your threads per inch, I realize I should do this for a piece of Snickering Pines that I got from Seraphim Fabrics. I may well have enough to do my piece of Peacock, Unicorn and Badger on... so there's hope! And thank you for that!! Your finishes are also so sweet and lovely, I also can't wait to see your finish on Florence! Laura, you have a pretty finish as well! So lovely, and the gorgeousness of your MFE!! Your needle must have been smoking! Thank you both for coming back to us - I missed you terribly! It's always a joy to see you.
Oh Brenda and Laura some wonderful inspiration and of course my shopping list has enlarged 😊,some more to my Nashville shopping that’s already here. You both have lots of stitching squirrels 🐿 visiting. Blessings and happy stitching.
Not sure if anyone replied earlier; but a "pill bug" is what we in the US call a rollie pollie. Those little bugs that when we touch them they roll into a ball. Great to see you back. All the best.
Glad you guys are back and I’ve missed you. I’m sorry you were having a sad time. I stopped the video and said a prayer for you, Brenda.

Excellent Flosstube! Met my husband when we were attending Purdue.

Good to see you both…
I trust the sadness you mention is mixed joy… Bittersweet memories..
Thank you 😊 for showing all your stash 😎
The DFT Danish flower thread 🧵 you showed is all Ive ever used, I have quite a few Samplers done with it…
It’s not available:-(( in USA 🇺🇸 but I have a friend in Belgium 🇧🇪 that can get it :-))
Take care….
😎☀️🌹
You both are the best. Thank you so much for all the encouragement and support. I so appreciate you two taking the time not only the time to watch me, to comment and then shout me out. Wow I am very humbled.
Re: Hobby House Needleworks-you don’t need Valium, you need your credit card! 😂😂 The new location is beautiful.
It is so great to see you both! I have missed you terribly! I was about to go into withdrawal 😅❣️❣️❣️
Thanks for sharing another wonderful video. I never miss them. I hope your stitching brings you peace and comfort. Happy stitching!
Glad you're back! Laura, I didn't get the BAP either, but while I'm watching you guys, I was scrolling Facebook, and Julie announced that the BAP will be offered again!
Glad you ladies are back, I hope all is okay with both of you.
So good to see you both! I’m sorry life has been a trial. Am glad you find solace in your stitching. You both had excellent progress on your pieces! Great finishes, too! Love you guys. Hugs. ❤
Happy to see you both again! While I am watching you guys & stitching with my ear bud in, hubby is watching ladies basketball final! Thanks for sharing today!
The fiddley border may be tough but it is so beautiful.
So glad you both are back. Sorry about the trials you both have gone through. I laughed so hard when Laura said we were supporting the needlework industry….so now next is haul! My husband didn’t get the joke he just looked at me funny! I went way overboard on market releases. I am going to be calling the Attic to see if when we are in Phoenix I can stop in and get a couple of kits. I haven’t been to Phoenix in 40 years so we are making a vacation of visiting family and doing some site seeing. My cousin told me about a train that takes you to the Grand Canyon it’s already booked! After hearing so many people talk about the attic I want to make sure I get a chance to visit.
Thank you, Laura & Brenda, for “helping the industry”. 😊
Omg you could open a cross stitch shop. Enjoy all your haul!!!Love you both.
Ahhh dear Brenda... prayers and blessings for the days ahead. Have missed you both and am so glad to see you and Laura again, we've all been watching for you! I used to feel guilty tossing the little bit of remaining unused floss, but chances are replacement skeins may be different dye lots, which might not be such a good thing!!
Wonderful video, as usual, Ladies! You do such beautiful work!! Blessings!!!
So glad to see you two today. I will keep you in my prayers. 💖
Hello ladies!!! Missed you!!!! Side note, Brenda, i must have been thinking of you!!! I also bought Grace Gill, and getting my threads and fabric tomorrow!!! Definite start, stat!!!!
Missed you. And I'm so glad that your stitching comforts you. It does foe me. Better than Xanax! Brenda....you have me thinking what you are up to. I'm sure it's scathingly brilliant! I have seen a "photo book" type with pages made of their cross stitching for someone to look thru. I hope that's it. And we can copy you lol. I have no idea how to start one. Glad to see your smiling faces and all the glorious stitching!
I missed you but glad you are back. Laura you need to finish your Modern Folk Embroidery piece. It is gorgeous! You both provide so much inspiration and your excitement brings me joy. Thank you.
Brenda, sending you hugs-I’m very much a cocooner too at times. Sometimes you just need the cozy security of home ❤️
Florence Mary Dickinson is my very first sampler!! I started it January 2023 and I’m still at the top. I totally love it, but like you said it’s intense!! You make me want to get it back out & stitch it. Thank you for encouraging me to!❤ seeing both of you.
I so look forward to seeing you both. Thank you for sharing your passion for cross stitch with us all.

Brenda sending hugs and prayers to you for whatever has hurt your heart and soul. Hope things get better soon for you. Hugs and prayers for you Laura because i know when Brenda hurts it hurts you. Fantastic stitching and haul ladies ! I saw so many things i want to put on my wish list. Wishing you both happy days and happy stitching from Tennessee.
