I am a new Subscriber. I quit Cross stitching in about 1985 (a beautiful story) but today I just wish to say you restored my ‘itch to stitch’. And I wish to Thank You Both. You cannot imagine what happened to me while watching. You mentioned your friend Bonnie. May I become Bonnie #2. I am a widow with needs to get back into my beloved hobby!
Yes!!!! Bonnie #2!!!!! We are so so happy to hear that your "itch to stitch" is back!!!! We want to follow along with you so please let us know how it goes!!! Are you on Instagram? There is a lot of stitchy goodness to follow there....what will you start with??? Where do you live?? We must know!!! So happy for you!
@@brendaandtheserialstarter2410 I am in ALabama, if you tell me where I can send a couple photos of samplers I finished….. I have one packed somewhere which just needs one line to finish. In an email I can explain more and answer questions🍀can you FB message more contact info🌹
Thank You for making my stitching so important to be ! When l was having so much trouble with my stitching ,you both made me feel it’s O.K. just keep going . You both made me feel everyone has those days , not just me . The two of you do such an incredible job with each of your floss tubes . I hope you both know what joy you bring to an old lady in California . I look forward to the the l get when your flosstube is on . God Bless both of you , Thank You for sharing your stitching with all of us .
You two make me miss NW Indiana! I have been to House of Stitches several times but now I order online occasionally since i am thousands of miles away. When we lived in Porter County years ago there were 3 LNS in Valparaiso which I haunted weekly (1990's). I love the fact that FlossTube has caused an explosion in stitching! Too bad Michael's and Hobby Lobby have pared down their stitching and supplies selections. 😒 Thank you for sharing your love of our craft.🥰
Thank you Brenda and Laura for taking the time to do these videos. You ladies never disappoint, such beautiful stitching to see, so many patterns for tempting. Have a great stitching time ladies. Until we meet again on flosstube.
Love seeing all the progress on your projects! So great that your box arrived from Nicola. Waiting for mine so will definitely make a cup of tea and go through it. I finished Mary Ann Preece by HATS in January, one of my birthday starts and it was so lovely to stitch. I also started Lucy Barber and the colors are AMAZING! I actually got 46 count and it is wonderful to stitch on. Could not pass up the NIAH sampler either. So many wonderful charts. Will get back to posting more on Instagram. Happy Stitching
Another happy Sunday watching you ladies while I sew. Laura, my mom calls it laguna too! 😂 I really hope you gals will do an unboxing of Nicola’s Letters from Europe. It sounds so lovely. Happy stitching! ❤
Always enjoy your sessions. I retired this past summer and have renewed my love of handwork; cross stitching, quilting, needle punch. Maybe more wool projects ...jack of all trades, master of none but fan of all! I'm new to all the close tube and goodies that are available now. Love seeing what kindred spirits are doing. I'm in central Indiana and attending my first cross stitch retreat this June !
So happy to hear that you will be attending a retreat this summer!!! You are going to have so much fun Kathy!!!!!! Sounds like you are really enjoying all those wonderful projects!
Well ladies, I have binge watched every single one of your videos. I am now caught up to date. I have laughed, cried, been awed, been inspired and yes, very enabled! I will be making my annual trek to my LNS at the end of March. Don't have an H & H, but my LNS is The Attic. I limit myself to a yearly visit otherwise I'd be broke. Again, thank you both! You are the best!
An annual pilgrimage to the Attic!!!!!! That is so restrained!!!!! We like to get there about twice a year .... if possible. It is heaven on Earth! Thank you for watching our "show" and for your very kind comments!!!!! Have fun at market day at the Attic!!!!! Yipeeee! Thanks Karen!!!
I think I need Ann Pilgrim and Hemingway fabric!❤️. Properly enabled lol. I am so excited to get Nicolas birthday box, so glad you got it too!! Have a beautiful stitchy week.
Hi girls!! Since I got home from Phoenix last Sunday, I am still so excited about going to the Attic. I have shown my haul to anyone who stands still longer than 30 seconds. Thank you both for the encouragement to step out of my comfort zone!! Both of you are amazing people and you mean the world to me. ❤ Marla
Love that scotty dog project bag Brenda, and yours too, Laura! You two always give me smiles and giggles, too! Thank you for making my day better! Of course, I love your stitching!!!
It is always such a joy to visit with both of you!!! I keep seeing Elizabeth Furniss and may have to start her! She is so gorgeous! New market stuff always gets us so excited! Thanks as always and happy stitching!
Brenda your Florence Dickinson is just stunning. After you mentioned that exclusive I went directly to the shop and ordered her! Now I’m just getting started adding samplers to my stitching but Martha Evans is going to be fun as your birthday SAL celebration and she is started🥳 yeah! And Laura like you mentioned I can buy Market releases during the next year instead of going squirrel here and there with each new IG post this month!! That being said, I did preorder Beloved and My Little Sampler by Sylvia because I’m in love with both of them😍 Have fun stitching with those lovely silks ladies and I’ll look forward to seeing what you share. Loved your birthday needle book with the initials all around Brenda❤️
So nice to spend a Sunday evening with you two. Thank you always for the good cheer, friendship, and beautiful things you share. Now if only I could find myself a linen bib with floss hanging off it, like Laura has ;) Take care and happy stitching.
It’s so lovely to have a visit with you both. Seeing ‘Spring Messenger’ Brenda, I thought it would make a wonderful needle book. Thanks for that hint Laura about putting threads in labeled bags when buying. I too have threads set aside not remembering what they are for. I do have a note book that I write for ones that will come in the mail and not with a chart. Blessings and happy stitching.
1:00:22 thank you both for the shout out for our Needle In A Haystack 25th Anniversary HATS Sarah Rinder 1841 exclusive. It’s such a lovely and unusual sampler design. We hope everyone enjoys stitching her.
I am so glad you have Nicola’s birthday box. I didn’t try to order one. I hope in a future flosstube you will show us what’s in it. So many beautiful stitches! Thank you ladies!!
Thank you Marcia!!!!! Yes, we will show the contents of the box but want to make sure everyone who ordered has a chance to look at the stuff before we show it......your kind words mean the world to us. Thank you.
I saved your video to sit and watch on Monday morning! Your videos are always full of such beautiful things to see! Brenda, I love the Scattered Seed chart you are doing. I have two or three of her charts to stitch, there’s just not enough time in my day to do everything and I want to do them all right now!! LOL!
Now that football is over for the season, you two are my favorite Sunday activity. I look forward to seeing all of the things that you are working on. Thanks so much for the shoutout about the project bags. I love making and sharing them. You two are such a joy to spend time with.
Thank you so much Gina!!!!! We love, love, love the project bags you made each of us! That was so very kind and generous of you!!!!!!!! Sending a big hug!!!!!!!!
Hi girls… I am one of those stitchers who has recently returned after many years .. and I am amazed how this craft has exploded and taken me super fast down the rabbit hole .. I think I even took the rabbit down the hole with me. Your stitching is amazing and so is your friendship . In the 80’s I completed Mirabella .. the Bride and Christmas Angel .. now loving Blackbird … yikes! Keep stitching
So excited when I saw you hold up the red boxes! I'm looking forward to receiving mine...whenever that might be! So many great projects, ladies! You inspire me. Thanks for another fun visit. (I'm UCD '79 - just missed you, Laura!)
Afternoon Brenda and Laura, you both are very lucky to get the red box, I did'nt it was sold out when I got oan the site... so so dissapointed this would have been a 70th birthday treat for myself... I will be stitching red samplers this week... I had a finish oan the 18th. The Catherine Archer Extract ...C.S.G. Sampler Collection. Stitched oan Polstitches Lamplight..... I am stitching oan The Red Ackworth Sampler. A Gathering of Samplers another from C.S.G. while visiting with you today... Together we count... Happy stitching... enjoy looking through that box...
You have a lot of great projects going Louisa!!!!!! We are wishing you a happy 70th birthday!!!!! You should buy several HATS charts to make up for losing out on the box! We are sorry about that!
Hi Laura, stitched with Carolyn again, she's a delight. I'm so glad she's coming to our meetups! I just my copy of Florence, the colors! The pattern. You're progress Brenda is just amazing! Oh Laura, that reaction you just had to "How now brown cow" is exactly the reaction I see when I "just can't", I must have it. My friends laugh at me, but it's a real thing - a visceral reaction and I feel you! 100%
Thank you for totally understanding that reaction Melissa!!! I am so so happy that Carolyn is coming to your meet-ups! She is such a dear friend and I am excited that she gets to experience the joy of hanging with other stitchers! Thank you for making her feel welcome!
i love that you picked out a color that you belatedly realized was called for on the chart. So funny...nothing like doing more work Laura. That is so me! 🤣
OMG!! I just figured out how to watch You Tube videos on our TV from phone. Duh…yours was the first video I watched today. So much easier to stitch and watch. Loved seeing all the stitching.
Another wonderful video ladies! I loved seeing the 'closed' red boxes. I cannot wait until mine arrives!! My husband was so patient as we were at a very nice romantic valentines dinner while I worked on getting my red box 😂 Thanks for all the loveliness that you share!
It’s true, you are the luckiest stitchers in the world and we are all glad that you share your WIPS, finishes, what’s on your immediate radar and why have I not finished this Sampler??? It warms my heart to hear that because I have a few of those too and I figure if Brenda and Laura have WIPS like that it’s OK for me to to have them too!!!!!!! Great video, love you two!!, Hugs, Lynn
I recently had a major hip surgery and was laid up in bed and found your channel. I haven't been stitching very long and never a sampler but I've binge watched every single one of your episodes. Thank you! I look forward to your bi-weekly chats.
Great video Brenda and Laura! You both are always such an inspiration. Laura, you are going to love Elizabeth Garrod 1799 when you stitch it. It went super fast for me and was so fun just using one color. Have a great couple of weeks! I am excited to see what both of you end up deciding to get from market. I am being very discerning as well this year. However, the Stacy Nash previews came out this weekend and now my budget might be expanded a bit because I was having an H and H over them😍
I kept flipping back and forth between your video and instagram…trying to follow all of those amazing creators! Your sampler stitching is lovely and your conversation is endearing! ❤
Wow I enjoyed stitching along while watching you this morning! Brenda - I’m just finishing up Strawberry Faire and then I’m starting Spring’s Messenger, but now I need the robin and strawberry pin keep chart you got through the club! I’m on a robin kick! Laura - the clock chimed right on time when you started mentioning Market releases! Ha! Have a wonderful couple of weeks!
Hi Ladies! Brenda your Sping Messenger looks wonderful. I am plugging along on your birthday SAL. I had it in timeout because I changed it from Surfine to 100/3. Still waiting on a few colors. Love the Hemingway too. 🥰 Laura, Agnes Lyle looks fabulous! Christina has a way with her reproductions the colors just go together. 💗 I spoke with Judy W yesterday and heard all about your trip with your Mom. Nothing like a good girls shopping day. Market has just been too much temptation!!! I have not wanted so many designs in several years. Have a great 2 wks. Stitch on! Teresa
I love watching you ladies. Such wonderful friendship and love for stitching! Brenda you are so lucky you got your box from HATS! I’m still waiting impatiently for mine and the Royal Mail hasn’t updated the status. I know they are having postal issues BUT I want my package! I digress. I recently informed my husband that I would love to go to The Attic! Fingers crossed I get there someday. Keep those videos coming! ❤
@@brendaandtheserialstarter2410 I got it! It was delivered on March 1st. Such lovely things inside! I can’t wait to start stitching! Will there be a SAL?
My needlepoint shop always packs my projects separately, including my threads that I buy for projects. Sometimes I still forget what the bag of floss is for 😂😂😂. Thanks for another great sharing as always.
Brenda, you can do 56 count! I can and I am not the stitcher that you are, but I hope to grow up to be like you and Bettina!! Bettina is the fastest stitch I know that is why I want to be like her. I miss you both and love your Flosstubes! So inspirational for me!!
Thank you for keeping the Hats box a secret for now! I'm eagerly awaiting mine. You should have seen me running into my husband's office exclaiming that I needed xx British pounds ASAP! He was like, "what is happening???" Happy stitching!
So glad you have one coming April!!!!! It is quite the event!!!!!!!! We will not show it on FT for quite some time to ensure that everyone has the thrill of opening each item in their own time at home!
Brenda, as I sat down with my current stitch which is the Spring Messenger , like yours,I realized after seeing yours that I totally reversed the colors on my Robin ! Duh ! I was stitching the top portion in the orange color ! So thanks so much for showing that or who knows how long input would have taken me to see my mistake ! Lol. Happy Stitching to you both !💕
My Sunday is made when I see you two come on. I see all your samplers and want to do one and I stitch only on aida. Yes, you have said that is not an issue, I just need to get a pattern and get a move on. I was making a list of all the things you talked about, that I wanted to check out and it became a two page list. Thank you so much.
Thank you Carol!!!! Yes, you can definitely stitch a sampler on Aida!!!!!! Let us know if you cannot find one....but I am sure you can!!!!!!! Please keep us posted!
I was only able to make it to the 2:32 mark on the video before I had to pause it. I've been watching your progress on Florence Mary Dickinson and I could not resist any longer. My grandmother who taught me xstich was a Florence Mary so I am going to stitch it in honor of her! As always, appreciate the enablement! 🙂
Another wonderful floss tube! It is wonderful to see your progress and what you will work on next. Thank you for inspiring me to reach out and challenge myself. I am going to try one over one, any suggestions?
Thank you Carolyn!!!! Suggestions for Over One Stitching: 1. Gird your loins! 2. Start with a lower count linen to make it a bit easier or do over one on 25 count evenweave. 3. Be patient. You can't go fast. 4. Gird your loins again.
Love watching your videos! I was lucky enough to get one of the red boxes. Haven't decided yet if I'll open it a little at a time or all at once. Take care.
Brenda, I also have a piece of "Up in the Attic" by Fox and Rabbit and it looks exactly like your "La Maison Rouge" linen. I'm using mine for the 2023 Fox and Rabbit MSAL and am loving it! You two gals are a hoot, highlight of my Sunday afternoon! Thanks for sharing 😊
So happy to see that you received Nicola’s 60th bday box. Can’t wait to see what is in inside..if you reveal it…thank you for sharing all of your stitching. I really enjoy watching. Have a great week!
Oh my gosh! I know you fly by the seat of your pants, but that cuckoo clock gets you every time 😂. Thanks for another fun Sunday of beautiful stitching and lots of laughs. It was quite something to see "the hern" happening live🤣. Have a great couple of weeks!
Hi ladies! I love that you showed Rebel Stitcher's market releases! Isn't that sampler just amazing! I've already preordered all 3 of her Market releases and I can't wait to get them!!
Izabela!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so glad that Brenda mentioned your Instagram account. I follow you, but sometimes when I see things that are so beautiful and that I love so much I become speechless! That is what happens when I see your posts! Oh my goodness...your stitching and photos are SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!! You are an artist! Thank you so much for the beauty you put out in the world! We are both sending you a big hug!
Oh say! Ladies…..stitching samplers is crazy addictive! Finished Mary Woodward and immediately started The Rose and the Giant Pear! Purchased the Dutch Sampler (my heritage is part Dutch and it’s my colors). And after watching Nicola I went and ordered the 25th anniversary sampler from Needle in a Haystack! Y’all enable me real good! Lol! ❤❤
thank you for the best floss tube (again).Laura you mentioned needles. Sashiko needles have a rounded hole . Perhaps they will work with your wool project.

It is always a great Sunday when Laura and Brenda have a video!
Thank you Becky!!!!

Thank you Joy!!!!!!!!! Hugs!!!!

Thank you Mary Kay!!!
So nice to spend a Sunday evening with you two. Thank you always for the good cheer, friendship, and beautiful things you share. Now if only I could find myself a linen bib with floss hanging off it, like Laura has ;) Take care and happy stitching.
Thank you!!!!!!!!!! Yes, we all need a linen bib with floss hanging willy-nilly!!!!!
It’s so lovely to have a visit with you both. Seeing ‘Spring Messenger’ Brenda, I thought it would make a wonderful needle book.

I recently had a major hip surgery and was laid up in bed and found your channel. I haven't been stitching very long and never a sampler but I've binge watched every single one of your episodes. Thank you! I look forward to your bi-weekly chats.
We hope that you are on your way to a full recovery Josie!!!!!!Thank you for your kind words......we appreciate you watching us!!!!
Love your Sundays !!! Thanks for all the eye candy and Brenda love the Sedona shirt!!!
Thank you Debi!!!!!!!
Awesome on the red boxes! I am looking forward to receiving mine. So exciting.
It is really something else!!!!!!! You will be so happy!
Great video Brenda and Laura! You both are always such an inspiration. Laura, you are going to love Elizabeth Garrod 1799 when you stitch it. It went super fast for me and was so fun just using one color. Have a great couple of weeks! I am excited to see what both of you end up deciding to get from market. I am being very discerning as well this year. However, the Stacy Nash previews came out this weekend and now my budget might be expanded a bit because I was having an H and H over them😍
Thank you Amber!!!!!! Totally understand the H&H over Stacy Nash!!!! Happens every year!
Thanks for sharing. I always enjoy your videos!
Thank you for watching Carla!!!!
I kept flipping back and forth between your video and instagram…trying to follow all of those amazing creators! Your sampler stitching is lovely and your conversation is endearing! ❤
Thank you so much Michele!!!!! How kind of you!
Wow I enjoyed stitching along while watching you this morning! Brenda - I’m just finishing up Strawberry Faire and then I’m starting Spring’s Messenger, but now I need the robin and strawberry pin keep chart you got through the club! I’m on a robin kick! Laura - the clock chimed right on time when you started mentioning Market releases! Ha! Have a wonderful couple of weeks!
Thank you Jackie!!!! That Strawberry Faire chart is so beautiful!!!!!!!!
1:43 you two lassies are fantastic, love your videos , keep the good work!! Cheers from mb. Canada!
Thank you Estelle!!!!! Sending love to you up there in Canada!
First time watching you ladies...so much fun!!
Thank you Barbara!!!!! Hope you come back again!
Great to see you Ladies! Great video 🎉Have a great stitchy week!😊
Thank you Mary!!! Hope you have a great stitchy week too!
What a GREAT video, love it all and the Brenda and Laura!!!!! 💚🪡💚
Thank you Tina!
Hi Ladies! Brenda your Sping Messenger looks wonderful. I am plugging along on your birthday SAL. I had it in timeout because I changed it from Surfine to 100/3. Still waiting on a few colors. Love the Hemingway too. 🥰 Laura, Agnes Lyle looks fabulous! Christina has a way with her reproductions the colors just go together. 💗 I spoke with Judy W yesterday and heard all about your trip with your Mom. Nothing like a good girls shopping day. Market has just been too much temptation!!! I have not wanted so many designs in several years. Have a great 2 wks. Stitch on! Teresa
Thank you Teresa!!!!!! Loved reading all of your comments!!! I wish we all lived closer and could stitch together regularly!!!!
I love watching you ladies. Such wonderful friendship and love for stitching! Brenda you are so lucky you got your box from HATS! I’m still waiting impatiently for mine and the Royal Mail hasn’t updated the status. I know they are having postal issues BUT I want my package! I digress. I recently informed my husband that I would love to go to The Attic! Fingers crossed I get there someday. Keep those videos coming! ❤
Your red box will come and you will be so excited!!!! and, yes!, you must get to the Attic!!!! Stat!!!!!! Thank you Nancy!
@@brendaandtheserialstarter2410 I got it! It was delivered on March 1st. Such lovely things inside! I can’t wait to start stitching! Will there be a SAL?
My needlepoint shop always packs my projects separately, including my threads that I buy for projects. Sometimes I still forget what the bag of floss is for 😂😂😂. Thanks for another great sharing as always.
Thank you for watching Athena!!!!!! Your needlepoint shop knows how to do it!
Lovely to see you ladies again. Brenda I do hope you are feeling well. Happy stitching to you both as well.
Thank you Alison!!!!!!!!
I’m having a sick day, so it was nice to be able to watch some good stitching fun 😊
We hope you are feeling better now!!!!!
Your floss tubes are the best! Enjoy you two immensely 😊
Thank you very kindly Nancy!
Oh ladies, so jealous you got a red box😯, love you stichy talk you a joy to watch.
Thank you Kerri!!!!
Thank you both for introducing me to new designers and new charts! HATS is still a favorite, but I love the variety. Another great video, per usual. 💛
Thank you dear buddy!!!!!!!!! Can't wait to see you soon!
Brenda, you can do 56 count! I can and I am not the stitcher that you are, but I hope to grow up to be like you and Bettina!! Bettina is the fastest stitch I know that is why I want to be like her. I miss you both and love your Flosstubes! So inspirational for me!!
We miss you too Desi!!! Last February was certainly a life highlight!!! And you are a fabulous stitcher and a very kind soul!!! Hugs to you!!!!
Thank you for keeping the Hats box a secret for now! I'm eagerly awaiting mine. You should have seen me running into my husband's office exclaiming that I needed xx British pounds ASAP! He was like, "what is happening???" Happy stitching!
So glad you have one coming April!!!!! It is quite the event!!!!!!!! We will not show it on FT for quite some time to ensure that everyone has the thrill of opening each item in their own time at home!
Brenda, as I sat down with my current stitch which is the Spring Messenger , like yours,I realized after seeing yours that I totally reversed the colors on my Robin ! Duh ! I was stitching the top portion in the orange color ! So thanks so much for showing that or who knows how long input would have taken me to see my mistake ! Lol. Happy Stitching to you both !💕
Phewwww! That was a close call!!! Brenda to the rescue again!!!!
As always… love my Sunday nights with you both!! 🤗
Thank you Deborah!!!!
My Sunday is made when I see you two come on. I see all your samplers and want to do one and I stitch only on aida. Yes, you have said that is not an issue, I just need to get a pattern and get a move on. I was making a list of all the things you talked about, that I wanted to check out and it became a two page list. Thank you so much.
Thank you Carol!!!! Yes, you can definitely stitch a sampler on Aida!!!!!! Let us know if you cannot find one....but I am sure you can!!!!!!! Please keep us posted!
You two just bring a Smile :) Love all your updates and shares ❤️
Thank you so much Judy!!!
Love, ❤️!!
Thank you Sandra!!!!
Hi ladies - I am stitching Martha Evans with Vicky Clayton silks. Love them,
I bet that is gorgeous Lourdes!!!!
I was only able to make it to the 2:32 mark on the video before I had to pause it. I've been watching your progress on Florence Mary Dickinson and I could not resist any longer. My grandmother who taught me xstich was a Florence Mary so I am going to stitch it in honor of her! As always, appreciate the enablement! 🙂
Thank goodness you got one Shelly!!!!!!! You have to stitch it in honor of your Grandmother!!!!
Thank you ladies! I smile and enjoy the entire show! Makes my day!
Thank you so much for your lovely comment Elizabeth!!!!
Another wonderful floss tube! It is wonderful to see your progress and what you will work on next. Thank you for inspiring me to reach out and challenge myself. I am going to try one over one, any suggestions?
Thank you Carolyn!!!! Suggestions for Over One Stitching: 1. Gird your loins! 2. Start with a lower count linen to make it a bit easier or do over one on 25 count evenweave. 3. Be patient. You can't go fast. 4. Gird your loins again.
Thank you so much! Considered me girded.
You too are something else! I couldn’t figure out why my Instagram went crazy. Then I watched your wonderful video. Thanks for the shoutout!!!
Thank you for the wonderful Instagram posts!!!!!
Love watching your videos! I was lucky enough to get one of the red boxes. Haven't decided yet if I'll open it a little at a time or all at once. Take care.
Thank you Mary Ann!!!! That will be a tough call....I say open it all at once and have a good time!
Brenda, I also have a piece of "Up in the Attic" by Fox and Rabbit and it looks exactly like your "La Maison Rouge" linen. I'm using mine for the 2023 Fox and Rabbit MSAL and am loving it! You two gals are a hoot, highlight of my Sunday afternoon! Thanks for sharing 😊
Thank you so much Diane!!!!!
I just got How Now Brown Cow. It's a beautiful sampler. Thanks for all the eye candy today, ladies!
I ordered it!!! I am so excited!!!!!!!! Glad we will both have it!
So happy to see that you received Nicola’s 60th bday box. Can’t wait to see what is in inside..if you reveal it…thank you for sharing all of your stitching. I really enjoy watching. Have a great week!
Thank you so much Diane!!!!!! We will show it eventually!!!
@@brendaandtheserialstarter2410 oh that is great! Thank you
Oh my gosh! I know you fly by the seat of your pants, but that cuckoo clock gets you every time 😂. Thanks for another fun Sunday of beautiful stitching and lots of laughs. It was quite something to see "the hern" happening live🤣. Have a great couple of weeks!
Thank you Maureen!!!!!! I am getting that "hern" chart soon....then I can really go to town!
Hi ladies! I love that you showed Rebel Stitcher's market releases! Isn't that sampler just amazing! I've already preordered all 3 of her Market releases and I can't wait to get them!!
Thank you Jennifer!!!! So glad you are getting all three of Colleen's releases!!!
I also have orphan overdyed floss, they are on a metal ring - - I bought them for Something!!! Nice video, Thanks 💞
Well that is a good idea to put them on an "orphan ring." I will do that too!!!!
Oh you cheered me up so much today. Enjoyed soooo much.
Oh that is wonderful!!! We all need cheering up sometimes!!! (or lots of times!) Thank you Betty!
I love watching you! Thank you very much for your kind words about me.
Izabela!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so glad that Brenda mentioned your Instagram account. I follow you, but sometimes when I see things that are so beautiful and that I love so much I become speechless! That is what happens when I see your posts! Oh my goodness...your stitching and photos are SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!! You are an artist! Thank you so much for the beauty you put out in the world! We are both sending you a big hug!
Great video chicks! You two are the luckiest in the world!!❤❤

What a great combo of shirts we had on then for you Olive!
Wonderful video!! Lots of goodies!! ❤
Thank you Joyce!
Oh say! Ladies…..stitching samplers is crazy addictive! Finished Mary Woodward and immediately started The Rose and the Giant Pear! Purchased the Dutch Sampler (my heritage is part Dutch and it’s my colors). And after watching Nicola I went and ordered the 25th anniversary sampler from Needle in a Haystack! Y’all enable me real good! Lol! ❤❤
That is so exciting Deborah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You are stitching some real beauties!!!!!
You two are fabulous as always great floss tube❤see you in two weeks!✌🏻
Thank you Sherry!!!
OH SAY! I think I'm becoming a serial starter! Lol!
Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Join me Neva!!!!!

Thank you Marion!!!!!!!
