❤ true words Brenda. I have stitched from childhood and love how relaxing it is. I watched my Mum fight her Altzhiemers to carry on stitching , when her mind could not understand stitching ...she knitted her last few years. She never understood who we were sometimes but her hands knew how to knit. Keep stitching ladies ... ❤
Ann G. turned out fabulous! Loved your parade. You look like you have about an acre of stitching to do! My goodness you showed some huge samplers! You are a brave woman!
So much fun seeing all these beautiful stitches. Hopefully we xan stitch to at least 90s. We are frozen in Missouri...sniw, wind, ice and subzero temperatures.. aren't you happy to miss this! Retirement means you do not gave to slide to work! I am staying inside and stitching!
No I don’t miss the driving and sliding or the subzero. But we get a little cold too. It’s supposed to hit freezing tonight which is very cold for Florida!!
Never worry about talking to yourself…My Daddy always says, “you can talk to yourself, and you can even answer yourself. Just don’t say, what?”😊 As always, beautiful work
Such a treat to see you! 😊 I so enjoy your channel 🎶🐦🍃🪻💜 and really look forward to your new episodes. Congratulations on your finishes! Be healthy. Blessings ✨️
Great WIP parade Carol! You have some great choices! We are in the frigid temps here with over 2 ft. Of snow. I can’t wait to get to AZ for a few weeks. Love watching you as I do miss you. Take care of yourself and stitch away! I have been stitching quite a bit due to weather! Yay as that’s a good thing about bad roads! 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks my friend!!! I’m sure Arizona will feel like summer compared to Iowa! I hope you and Tanya have a sweet time stitching and just being together!!! Stay safe! Miss you too!!!❤️
You can never have enough projects going at one time. 😂 variety is the spice of life. Beautiful finishes and wips. You are pretty far along on the ones you want to finish this year. Uffindell sister samplers is on my list to start, also. I don't own any other HATS patterns, and don't plan to buy any, so it will be fun to stitch them. Should I go wild and do both at the same time? Lordy! I look forward to your next update. I hope both you and hubby are well or getting well. So much crud going around this Winter. ❤❤
Ok, I’m having the hardest time with TH-cam. They took away my ability to comment the way I use to and I’m not getting my notifications on my tablet. So accidentally I found this way I think. Carol , love your work and thankyou for sharing all the beautiful pieces you are working on. I think I told you before that my dad would say “I like talking to a good listener and listening to a good talker.” He’d talk to himself. I’m married to a man that doesn’t talk much and my youngest daughter says she does talk much either. One day one of them asked me if I talk if no one is home to hear me. I stopped and thought a second and then said of course I do! After all I believe what my dad always said. Now I catch myself doing it all time. Maybe they should talk more! Well my husband as youngest daughter is married and off with her family! Look forward to each of your flosstubes. You are an inspiration.
Hi Carol! Love your finishes - someday I am going to stitch Ann Grimshaw! Keep on stitching and you will get them all done eventually! Happy stitching til next time! 😁🪡🧵🪡✂️✂️✂️💕💕💕
Carol, I will never get tired of hearing about your Ann Grimshaw! She is just gorgeous!! ❤❤❤ And you have that many WIPS?? I thought I had a lot at 14/17... 😮 I also LOVE your Ann Uffindel! WOWZA Hugs and Love, Jennifer PS I keep editing my comments because I see even more of your gorgeous stitching to comment on! Jane Atkinson ...another major WOWZA... Gorgeous!! Sigh... thank you for showing all the loveliness!!
I appreciate your WIP parades because you note the time begun so it's clear how long a piece takes to completion. Of course different stitchers work at different rates but still it's a nice guide in general. I like how you divide up your weekly stitching time. I'm going to copy your Saturday Smalls; I have so many cute little pieces begging to get done but I always push them aside in pursuit of whatever large project I'm on. I may also copy your His Eye Is On the Sparrow Sunday; I have that chart so I'll kit it up. Thanks for your commentary on using a journal. I recently bought a cheap hardcover ($10 at Walgreens!) with 240 pages and now I have an idea how to get it started.
I would never get sick of seeing Ann Grimshaw. She's in my stash and I aspire to stitch her before too long. I always love seeing all of your stitching, Carol. You have inspired many of my more ambitious chart purchases!😂❤ As always, it was great to see you.
I agree with you 100%. I do the border first. And I count several times for this. It's a whole lot easier when you add the insides of the design. I enjoyed today's visit. Thanks for sharing your lovely work.
Oh man was I happy to see this Flosstube pop up!! 🎉🎉 so many things to say 🤦♀️ first of all Ann Grimshaw… I never get tired of seeing her she’s so stunning. You can show her every time if you want. I would . And speaking of pretty holy buckets is your Jane Atkinson stunning!! That border … oh my gosh!! And by the way Did you see that Reecie posted a new Flosstube? That was fun! Tell Professor Saltbox two things: the parade music was just the best touch 😂 AND this one was actually not quite long enough!!! Hee hee. So long for now from the frozen tundra aka Iowa 🥶🥶🥶🥶💙
It is always fun to see your WIP parade, and your finishes are so gorgeous!! I have been really sick with RSV so I hope that the two of you do not get it. It is really nasty, especially if you get the wheezing, so scary. Thanks for sharing all of your beautiful projects. Happy stitching and blessings to you both.
Another inspiring video. Congratulations to your granddaughter and her dance company. I hope that tickle in your throat goes away and that Mr. Saltbox feels better soon. Have a wonderful day!
Thanks for another fabulous Flosstube.😊 Congrats to Camille and her fellow dancers. She is precious! I hope Mr. Saltbox feels better soon. A cold can really drag you down. I always crack windows in the house if anyone is sick to let out those germs. I love seeing all of your WIPS and kudos on your Anne Grimshaw finish!❤
I was SO happy to see your video on que today! I've been stitching on His Eye Is On The Sparrow for ages. I am a monogamous, s-l-o-w stitcher. I love seeing your WIPS and progress. ❤
Your Ann Grimshaw is stunning! I’ll never be tired of hearing about it or looking at it. I have this pattern on my wish list at 124stitch. Need to take the plunge!
So excited to see your Ann Grimshaw finish. Truly stunning. I have the pattern I just haven’t started yet. After looking at the hand-drawn squares, I set it aside. Ha ha. Loved the entire parade you shared. Thank you.
Carol, wow🤩 phenomenal WIP’s never too many ….so great seeing what you finished for your January stitch just beautiful! Thank you for taking time to put this together & to Mr. Saltbox for editing, etc… so appreciated, inspiring..congrats on your granddaughter’s dancing 💃 my niece did that from that same age throughout high school so fun! hope your not getting ill and that hubby feels much better soon, take good care, looking forward to seeing your progress…hugs from MN🤗♥️
I loved your WIP parade. I am pretty much a monogamous stitcher. Maybe 2 at the most. I also stitch in hand. I have tried hoops and Q snaps, and I find them too bulky. Congrats to your granddaughter. I hope Mr. Saltbox feels better.
Always love seeing what you are working on. I feel more confident about trying larger designs when I see how ambitious you are...there's hope I tell myself! XO
So happy to see your video when I went to Flosstube this morning. What an awesome WIP parade…..beautiful pieces! I love seeing your work; thank you for sharing. Also, Mr. Saltbox, hope you are feeling better soon, and thank you for preparing these great videos!🤗
I love seeing all of your WIPs! Thanks for sharing. It’s so funny the way we all approach things so differently, too. I could never stitch a border, especially one that is basically just a wonky line, before stitching anything else. I’m definitely a “border as I go” stitcher.
Thank-you for sharing your Parade of beautiful framed designs. your husband is so sweet to get you coffee, love the cup. Congratulation to your granddaughter. Thank-your son in law for his service my husband was in the Navy during Vietnam. Congratulation on finishing Ann Grimshaw, I am looking forward to seeing it framed, I hope your husband starts feeling better soon. Congratulations on your finishes and progress on all your stitching. Thank-you for sharing your WIP Parade.
Amazing Carol! So, so many gorgeous WIPs! I love the Ellen Strick by Scarlett House - have not seen it before this flosstube - now on my wish list! And, my goodness- Ann Grimshaw is exceptional! You are a prolific stitcher - always amazed by you. Cheers to a another wonderful year with you and Mr. Saltbox Stitcher❤
First, thanks for your video, and its good to see you again! I'm one of those who (feels driven?) stitches the border bones first. After everything meets up on the border, you can just relax, or carry on. 😊
Love your WIP parade!!! I was tickled to see that you’re stitching Sweet Temper! I just love that one! I have it kitted and ready but haven’t put in a single stitch. You’ve inspired me again! Many 😊 thanks!
Beautiful Parade!!! Loved every minute! I think the Needle & Flax linen that has some greet to it is Alcott which I like very much! I hope Mr. Saltbox feels better soon and that you do not catch it!!!😷
Congratulations on Anne’s finish - she is big bold and beautiful. Loved your parade . You have some amazing pieces !! Jane and her border is Stunning. Wishes for Mr. Saltbox feels better soon .
Re-watching today while ironing and cutting for the #tinyninepatchchallenge , I love your videos and all your stitching. You inspire me so much! I bought Gathering the Greens after the first time I watched this and I still want to get Ann Grimshaw and Jane Atkins. My husband always asks what Mr Saltbox is up too when he hears your voice. 💖
I enjoyed your WIP parade. I am not a sampler stitcher, but I think they are beautiful. You may already know this, but Reecie has a new flosstube. I remember that she was someone you enjoyed watching. It is Flosstube # 12. I hope your husband feels better soon. Take care and happy stitching!!!
Love all your charts you are currently working on but Ann Sandles spoke to me for some reason. Had to pause and order it. I seem to be on a Brenda Gervais path in the past few months so can’t hurt to add another. I like that a lot of her called for threads seem to follow a lot of charts. Happy Stitching and continuing good health to you and Mr Saltbox, hope he feels better. 🙏🪡🧵🥰⛄️
Loved watching your amazing parade❤. I love the saying “God willing and the creek don’t rise” and have adopted that saying based on hearing you say it! Thank you Carol Saltbox and sending my wishes to Mr. saltbox for a speedy recovery ❤
Happy New Year Carol ❤ your flosstubes always do my heart good, you need to keep going with the WIP parade until you get to Ann Rayner, I finally managed to get the chart but I’m a bit intimidated, it’s not an easy chart to read. Hope Mr Saltbox feels better soon, hats off to him for the great parade music. Xx
I love Ann too!!! She’ll be in my WIP parade part 2. And yes the chart is nearly impossible to read which is one of the reasons she is still a WIP but I definitely want to finish her sooner than later!!!
Keep doing your homework when you have time. Love it and all the time you put into all your lovely projects then you share them with us. Hope your husband feels better real soon. Love you !
Wip parade yay! A Carol wip parade yipeee yayy🎉🎉 lol thanks cos it’s takes a lot of work! Congratulations to Camille! Sure hope he doesn’t have the crud we had, 3 weeks till we got better. Wicked cough and cold. Feel better soon! You got all that done in 2 weeks! Amazing ❤ your stitching is never boring cos you do so many diff things and all so beautiful. Lol welcome to my world, gotta love him. I stitch in hand except 36 I need a hoop and 3.5 mags. I can stitch lower in-hand with mags (ever since my cataract surgery sigh). See you next time,hopefully everyone is well!
I am such a fan of all their quilts but my favorites are Happy Go Lucky, Chelsea’s “Dazzling” made in Simply Delightful and the Coastal Summer Medallion Quilt. I could go one. I really appreciate Sherri’s Block of the Month. Thank you for all you and Fat Quarter Shop do for the quilting community!
Ann Grimshaw and Hannah Tingey are both gorgeous!!! Elizabeth Charnelay is such a sweet sampler! It was such fun to see your WIPs. They are never boring!!! I was reminded how much I love the Mary Carr sampler by NWP. I may have to start that this year! I hope Mr. Saltbox feels better soon and I really hope you are not catching anything. Thanks as always, Carol and happy stitching!
So beautiful, thanks for showing all of your amazing stitching, finishes, and WIPS. Congratulations to your granddaughter on her dancing achievements. Hope you are not getting sick and that your husband feels better soon. Janine
I love a Parade!! What a beautiful finish of Ann Grimshaw...hope to purchase my silk & get it started before the end of January. Your last video inspired me to pull out my kitted "Gathering of the Greens" I started it on New Year's Day and finished it this week. I love that chart but all those berries in the border were a true test of my patience!! I saw so many in your WIP parade that I want to stitch, you are the best enabler and I love spending time with you!!! I hope Professor Saltbox is feeling better. He does a wonderful job as your Editor & Publisher. See you next time! xoxoxo
Aww thanks so much. I get enabled by so many stitchers too!! Especially if I have it kitted. I hope to get back to Gathering the Greens. Maybe Christmas in July. It was 80 degrees here yesterday so I’m ready to stitch spring.
LOL 🚔👮♂🎫 Fun Parade. Beautiful fabrics on all. I smile when I find a Crescent Color tag or very old DMC label in my stash. My brain doesn't like to do over one!! I'm doing a 3-day rotation, 5 days if I choose not to put it down. Feel better Mr. Saltbox, Congrats to your Granddaughter with her dance club Wins.

Who doesn’t love a Carol Saltbox parade 🥰🥳. May you & Mr Saltbox have a happy, healthy & blessed 2024! ♥️
Thank you so much!
You have no idea how I look forward to your videos and words of wisdom! Thank u so much for your time and inspiration!! 🧵🧵🧵🪡🪡🪡
Hello Carol…I never tire of seeing your gorgeous projects. I always feel like I’m visiting a friend when I watch. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much! You’re very sweet!
You are truly an inspiration to so many of us! Thank you for showing your WIPs! We all love you!
Aww you’re sweet! Thank you!
FYI Tudor Silk is equivalent to Soie Surfine, which is the finer version of 100/3. Absolutely love your videos! ❤
❤ true words Brenda. I have stitched from childhood and love how relaxing it is. I watched my Mum fight her Altzhiemers to carry on stitching , when her mind could not understand stitching ...she knitted her last few years. She never understood who we were sometimes but her hands knew how to knit.
Keep stitching ladies ... ❤
I love seeing your treasures!! Your two finishes are absolutely beautiful!! Look forward to seeing your progress!! Happy stitching!❤
Thank you so much!
Omg I love a parade. Huge applause on you finishes. Just fabulous pieces.
Thank you so much!
What a FABULOUS parade!!! My favorite kind of parade is a WIP parade & yours is one of the best!!!
Thank you!
Ann G. turned out fabulous! Loved your parade. You look like you have about an acre of stitching to do! My goodness you showed some huge samplers! You are a brave woman!
Thank you so much! Brave or crazy??? Lol
So much fun seeing all these beautiful stitches. Hopefully we xan stitch to at least 90s.
We are frozen in Missouri...sniw, wind, ice and subzero temperatures.. aren't you happy to miss this! Retirement means you do not gave to slide to work! I am staying inside and stitching!
No I don’t miss the driving and sliding or the subzero. But we get a little cold too. It’s supposed to hit freezing tonight which is very cold for Florida!!
Your WIP parades are always amazing, Carol. Absolutely love all of your pieces.
Thank you so much!
Never worry about talking to yourself…My Daddy always says, “you can talk to yourself, and you can even answer yourself. Just don’t say, what?”😊
As always, beautiful work
Love that! Too funny!!! I have been known to tell myself “ told you so”. Haha
Loved your flosstube, as always! I like how you keep it real and your humor!
Oh thank you!
Oh, my.....such lovely 🌹 things! 🤩
Such a treat to see you! 😊 I so enjoy your channel 🎶🐦🍃🪻💜 and really look forward to your new episodes. Congratulations on your finishes! Be healthy. Blessings ✨️
Thanks so much!!!❤️
Great WIP parade Carol! You have some great choices! We are in the frigid temps here with over 2 ft. Of snow. I can’t wait to get to AZ for a few weeks. Love watching you as I do miss you. Take care of yourself and stitch away! I have been stitching quite a bit due to weather! Yay as that’s a good thing about bad roads! 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks my friend!!! I’m sure Arizona will feel like summer compared to Iowa! I hope you and Tanya have a sweet time stitching and just being together!!! Stay safe! Miss you too!!!❤️
Congratulations to Camille! She is so cute! My granddaughter danced also. Such fun times!!
Thank you so much for the video. You are inspiring ..
Thank you so much!
I love seeing and hearing about all your projects. It snowed most of the morning. I enjoyed hanging out with you while I got some stitching done.
Thank you! Stay warm and cozy!!
Thanks for the inspiration, Carol - as always! May your needle through 2024. Cheers!
Thank you!
You can never have enough projects going at one time. 😂 variety is the spice of life. Beautiful finishes and wips. You are pretty far along on the ones you want to finish this year. Uffindell sister samplers is on my list to start, also. I don't own any other HATS patterns, and don't plan to buy any, so it will be fun to stitch them. Should I go wild and do both at the same time? Lordy! I look forward to your next update. I hope both you and hubby are well or getting well. So much crud going around this Winter. ❤❤
Never tire of seeing all your WIPS and finishes. So inspiring. Beautiful.
Competition dance is wonderful! My 3 daughters competed. So much fun and wonderful memories
Ok, I’m having the hardest time with TH-cam. They took away my ability to comment the way I use to and I’m not getting my notifications on my tablet. So accidentally I found this way I think. Carol , love your work and thankyou for sharing all the beautiful pieces you are working on. I think I told you before that my dad would say “I like talking to a good listener and listening to a good talker.” He’d talk to himself. I’m married to a man that doesn’t talk much and my youngest daughter says she does talk much either. One day one of them asked me if I talk if no one is home to hear me.

Beautiful stitching and I always enjoy your videos ♥️♥️♥️
Thank you so much!
So many beautiful stitches. And many times, the border is very complex and kind of daunting, kudos for tackling that right at the beginning!
Thank you so much!
Oh my gosh your whip parade is beautiful. Love seeing them all. Hope you and hubby feel better!
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for another inspirational video! I always look forward to them. Stay safe and well and happy stitching!
Thank you!
Enjoyed the parade! Get better soon Mr Saltbox!! It was -9 in northern NH last night. Expecting colder tonite. Stay warm and safe 😊
Thanks, you too!
Hi Carol! Love your finishes - someday I am going to stitch Ann Grimshaw! Keep on stitching and you will get them all done eventually! Happy stitching til next time! 😁🪡🧵🪡✂️✂️✂️💕💕💕
Thank you! You too my friend!!! I’m stitching Dwelling place by TK and of course you stitched the model. So beautiful!!!
Carol, I will never get tired of hearing about your Ann Grimshaw! She is just gorgeous!! ❤❤❤ And you have that many WIPS?? I thought I had a lot at 14/17... 😮 I also LOVE your Ann Uffindel! WOWZA
Hugs and Love,
Jennifer
PS I keep editing my comments because I see even more of your gorgeous stitching to comment on! Jane Atkinson ...another major WOWZA... Gorgeous!! Sigh... thank you for showing all the loveliness!!
Oh thank you! I certainly have choices to stitch on!!! The big dilemma is…. Do I stitch a lot on a few or a little on a lot? Decisions decisions!!
@@saltboxstitcher I totally get that!!! Lol 🤣
I appreciate your WIP parades because you note the time begun so it's clear how long a piece takes to completion. Of course different stitchers work at different rates but still it's a nice guide in general.
I like how you divide up your weekly stitching time.

Love seeing all your projects! All beautiful. Congrats on being mentioned in the newest addition of “Just Cross Stitch” magazine.
Thank you so much! I was contacted by Just Cross Stitch last month and I was shocked!!! Who knew my crazy rambling would end up in a magazine???
Thanks for the new video! You and Professor Saltbox make me laugh every week. 😊 Also, get better soon Professor!
Thank you!!!

Yes! Thank you!
Your video comes up while i am grading papers, and I am happy!😂
Always a fun video from Carol. Love your WIPS!
Thanks so much Jen!!! I’m going to be watching your latest today! Stay warm in the Colorado cold!!!
It is always fun to see your WIP parade, and your finishes are so gorgeous!! I have been really sick with RSV so I hope that the two of you do not get it. It is really nasty, especially if you get the wheezing, so scary. Thanks for sharing all of your beautiful projects. Happy stitching and blessings to you both.
We are both well now. He was done and out for a bit but no RSV. Hope you are on the mend!!!
Another inspiring video. Congratulations to your granddaughter and her dance company. I hope that tickle in your throat goes away and that Mr. Saltbox feels better soon. Have a wonderful day!
Thank you so much!
Thanks for another fabulous Flosstube.😊 Congrats to Camille and her fellow dancers. She is precious! I hope Mr. Saltbox feels better soon. A cold can really drag you down.

Thanks so much!!
Love seeing all your stitching.
I was SO happy to see your video on que today! I've been stitching on His Eye Is On The Sparrow for ages. I am a monogamous, s-l-o-w stitcher. I love seeing your WIPS and progress. ❤
Thanks so much!!! I’ll be starting Consider the Lillies when I finish Eye on the Sparrow.
Your Ann Grimshaw is stunning! I’ll never be tired of hearing about it or looking at it. I have this pattern on my wish list at 124stitch. Need to take the plunge!
Thank you!!
I never get tired of seeing your work. Love Ann Grimshaw!
Thank you!
So excited to see your Ann Grimshaw finish. Truly stunning. I have the pattern I just haven’t started yet. After looking at the hand-drawn squares, I set it aside. Ha ha. Loved the entire parade you shared. Thank you.
You can do it!

Fun to see your WIPs this time - you have some beauties in there! - Sheri
Thanks so much Sherri!!!
Anne Grimshaw is beautiful!!
So happy to see your video when I went to Flosstube this morning. What an awesome WIP parade…..beautiful pieces! I love seeing your work; thank you for sharing. Also, Mr. Saltbox, hope you are feeling better soon, and thank you for preparing these great videos!🤗
Thank you so much!
I love seeing all of your WIPs! Thanks for sharing. It’s so funny the way we all approach things so differently, too. I could never stitch a border, especially one that is basically just a wonky line, before stitching anything else. I’m definitely a “border as I go” stitcher.
All kinds of beautiful Carol- can't wait to see your progress! I was watching you and stitching on my own Mary Carr.
Oh thank you! Of course when I watched it back I realized I said Mary Clark instead of Mary Carr. Sorry about that!!!
I'm working my way across the *$%& grass and the quirky animals!@@saltboxstitcher
Thank-you for sharing your Parade of beautiful framed designs. your husband is so sweet to get you coffee, love the cup. Congratulation to your granddaughter.

Wow, this is my first Saltbox Stitcher floss tube - what amazing work xx
Thank you so much!!! And also thanks for watching for the first time!!❤️
First, thanks for your video, and its good to see you again! I'm one of those who (feels driven?) stitches the border bones first. After everything meets up on the border, you can just relax, or carry on. 😊
I totally agree! Thanks for watching!
Love your WIP parade!!! I was tickled to see that you’re stitching Sweet Temper! I just love that one! I have it kitted and ready but haven’t put in a single stitch. You’ve inspired me again! Many 😊 thanks!

It’s a wow for Anne Grimshaw
I enjoyed your WIP parade. I am not a sampler stitcher, but I think they are beautiful. You may already know this, but Reecie has a new flosstube. I remember that she was someone you enjoyed watching. It is Flosstube # 12. I hope your husband feels better soon. Take care and happy stitching!!!
I’m my! Such wonderful treasures! Thank you so much for sharing! Happy stitching and happy New year!
Thank you!
Carol, you do such beautiful work. I would love to just be. Able to stitch with you and learn your process. Beautiful work and I love your floss tube.
Thank you so much!
Congratulations to you for being in just cross stitch magazine. I think it is great
Thank you so much!
Love all your charts you are currently working on but Ann Sandles spoke to me for some reason. Had to pause and order it. I seem to be on a Brenda Gervais path in the past few months so can’t hurt to add another. I like that a lot of her called for threads seem to follow a lot of charts. Happy Stitching and continuing good health to you and Mr Saltbox, hope he feels better. 🙏🪡🧵🥰⛄️
Your wall of stitching is amazing!
Loved watching your amazing parade❤. I love the saying “God willing and the creek don’t rise” and have adopted that saying based on hearing you say it! Thank you Carol Saltbox and sending my wishes to Mr. saltbox for a speedy recovery ❤
Yes! Thank you! My grandma and my mom both said that so I guess I inherited the saying. Lol
Thank you for showing us your WIP parade.
Thanks for watching!
Happy New Year Carol ❤ your flosstubes always do my heart good, you need to keep going with the WIP parade until you get to Ann Rayner, I finally managed to get the chart but I’m a bit intimidated, it’s not an easy chart to read. Hope Mr Saltbox feels better soon, hats off to him for the great parade music. Xx
I love Ann too!!! She’ll be in my WIP parade part 2. And yes the chart is nearly impossible to read which is one of the reasons she is still a WIP but I definitely want to finish her sooner than later!!!
Keep doing your homework when you have time. Love it and all the time you put into all your lovely projects then you share them with us. Hope your husband feels better real soon. Love you !
Thank you so much!

Thanks! And I’m watching you right now!!! 😂
I'm enjoying your video from a hotel room in Jacksonville. Perfect timing!!
Perfect!

Wip parade yay! A Carol wip parade yipeee yayy🎉🎉 lol thanks cos it’s takes a lot of work! Congratulations to Camille! Sure hope he doesn’t have the crud we had, 3 weeks till we got better. Wicked cough and cold. Feel better soon! You got all that done in 2 weeks! Amazing ❤ your stitching is never boring cos you do so many diff things and all so beautiful. Lol welcome to my world, gotta love him. I stitch in hand except 36 I need a hoop and 3.5 mags. I can stitch lower in-hand with mags (ever since my cataract surgery sigh). See you next time,hopefully everyone is well!
Thank you!! We are well and he is doing much better!! I wear 4.0 readers. So far that works for me!!
I am such a fan of all their quilts but my favorites are Happy Go Lucky, Chelsea’s “Dazzling” made in Simply Delightful and the Coastal Summer Medallion Quilt. I could go one. I really appreciate Sherri’s Block of the Month. Thank you for all you and Fat Quarter Shop do for the quilting community!
Ann Grimshaw and Hannah Tingey are both gorgeous!!! Elizabeth Charnelay is such a sweet sampler! It was such fun to see your WIPs. They are never boring!!! I was reminded how much I love the Mary Carr sampler by NWP. I may have to start that this year! I hope Mr. Saltbox feels better soon and I really hope you are not catching anything. Thanks as always, Carol and happy stitching!
Thanks so much!!!!I love Mary Carr too even though I called her Mary Clark. lol
So beautiful, thanks for showing all of your amazing stitching, finishes, and WIPS. Congratulations to your granddaughter on her dancing achievements. Hope you are not getting sick and that your husband feels better soon. Janine
What a great collection of WIPS.
We have about 10" of snow here in WI, & below zero temps for a week now.

I love a Parade!! What a beautiful finish of Ann Grimshaw...hope to purchase my silk & get it started before the end of January. Your last video inspired me to pull out my kitted "Gathering of the Greens" I started it on New Year's Day and finished it this week. I love that chart but all those berries in the border were a true test of my patience!! I saw so many in your WIP parade that I want to stitch, you are the best enabler and I love spending time with you!!! I hope Professor Saltbox is feeling better. He does a wonderful job as your Editor & Publisher. See you next time! xoxoxo
Aww thanks so much. I get enabled by so many stitchers too!! Especially if I have it kitted. I hope to get back to Gathering the Greens. Maybe Christmas in July. It was 80 degrees here yesterday so I’m ready to stitch spring.
Wow, I thought we were in the middle of a heat wave at 50 degrees, but I hear Snow is making a comeback this week! Happy stitching !
LOL 🚔👮♂🎫 Fun Parade. Beautiful fabrics on all. I smile when I find a Crescent Color tag or very old DMC label in my stash. My brain doesn't like to do over one!! I'm doing a 3-day rotation, 5 days if I choose not to put it down. Feel better Mr. Saltbox, Congrats to your Granddaughter with her dance club Wins.
