Shellie, I have to share about my pattern loss. I am a crocheter. My little sister saw a wedding dress in my magazine and commented that “that’s the wedding dress I want”. She was all of 13, but something made me order the pattern….7 yrs later, engaged, she asked if I remembered the wedding dress in the magazine. Why yes, and I have the pattern, so mom bought the yarn and I got busy crocheting, with the front done, and one sleeve done, the back up to the arm scythe done, I went looking for the pattern……..NO!…(my toddler daughter was fascinated with the flipper trash lid, and I decided that had to be where the pattern went). I couldn’t replace the pattern, so I got to figure out the finish….with lots of prayers, I was able to finish, she looked beautiful. I still remember that feeling. I have not lost a pattern in the last 40+ yrs. Love your channel
Congratulations on your one ear flosstube anniversary. I enjoy watching you very much and am glad my friend recommended that I watch you. Sorry to hear about your fall. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Your finishes are beautiful. And I like your wips with the kindness in them. Such a great word for this year. Hester, bee, Liberty. Looking forward to your next flosstube. Take care of yourself.
My dad always said, Speak Kind Words. I remember his words, and when you showed the kind words cross stitch I knew I had to have that! Thanks so much for sharing!
Happy Anniversary. I love your Floss Tubes! Thank you so much for such a lovely shout out . We sure did have a great time at lunch that day . Can’t wait to see you again . I am truly blessed to have a new friend . I was also figuring how to put a pocket in my Book of Days to hold my WIPGO board .
Happy Floss Tube Anniversary! I always love to see the beautiful stitching that you share. I just love the Hester pattern and the cute little bee pouch. Take care and watch out for those ducks! Beth
Enjoyed your video today and congratulations on your one year anniversary. You do a fantastic job Bee keeper Hester never took her liberty for granted!
Happy one year (belatedly)... I feel privileged to have watched your channel evolve in a positive and wonder-filled way. that white sampler is beautiful - for others trying to find it - if you go to the website and put in 2071 in the search box - the sampler comes up. Cheers!
Oh Shellie praying for a speedy recovery, your correct healing as we get older isn’t so easy 😢!! Congrats on your one year anniversary of your awesome floss tubes !! Hester Bee Liberty
I hope you are better soon. Neck injuries are a pain. I fell at work 22 years ago and ruptured a disc in my neck. Several surgeries later I was still in pain but after a cancer surgery in 2019 most of the pain is finally gone. So please take care of yourself. Your videos are always so enjoyable Hester is busy as a bee so she has more liberty to stitch Happy 1 year Anniversary
Happy New Year and Happy Flossaversary. Always love seeing your beautiful finishes and WIPs also. Your plans seem great for the new year. Thanks for sharing and I hope you feel better soon. Hester, Bee.
Happy One Year Flossiversary! Really enjoyed watching today's video and looking forward to seeing lots of kitted up projects. Your granny square afghan is beautiful when it is finished. Thanks so much for explaining in detail about the Queen's City Guild. I will also be attending the Nicola Parkman retreat and am so excited as I have tried to get in one of her classes for three years. Lisa was so sweet to assist me since I live in SC. I look forward to seeing you again (we met at Amana) and hopefully at the My Life is a Sampler retreat (I'm on the waitlist). I will be looking forward to receiving the Queen City's newsletter. Going now to check out their website. Happy Stitching! Dottie
Happy one year anniversary! I love seeing a new video from you. I think you already radiate kindness! Can’t wait to see what you have in your baskets. Happy stitching and feel better soon! Liberty, bee, Hester
Another Lovely video. The grocery store is where I give a lot of service. People can't reaching items, bagging groceries for a moms with a crying babies that don't have a free hand, taking people in to buy a meal who are outside looking for help. My word (first word for me) is Intentional. Liberty and Bee. Thank you for sharing
Really enjoyed this Flosstube! But, I always love each one you do. I'm so sorry to hear you fell and glad that you are on the way to feeling better. Wish I lived closer because I could have handed you your Christmas decorations, for you to put away. Hope you aren't experiencing the cold, cold weather! Wishing you and your family have a happy and healthy 2024!!! Greetings from California. Liberty
Hi Shellie, Your stitches are so beautiful. Praying you feel better soon. Hester, Bee, Liberty. Your afghan looks so festive and lovely and will make a great holiday decor addition. Thank you for your podcast! All the best!! Sheila
My word for the year is heal. I tore my ACL in November and am looking at surgery hopefully next month. They say it is a long, hard recovery as I am not a spring chicken. So I see a lot of stitching in my future. Love Hester and Liberty. I always enjoy watching your videos. Feel better!!!
Happy Flossaversary! It's been so much fun--not to mention educational--spending the past year with you. Thank you for sharing your projects, knowledge, and time with us. So sorry to hear about your fall. I hope your treatments are going well and that you'll be fully recovered soon. (Hester, bee, liberty.)
Thank you for a wonderful year of floss tube! I look forward to many more 😊 I enjoy hearing stitch updates from what you are working on to information on guilds. I will be checking into that. The Hester and Bee charts look fun! Rest and recover from that fall.
When I do some kindness for someone, I always feel so blessed . I gain so much more than the recipients. Like you I am usually up a couple of hours before the rest. Thats my favorite time of day. Ester, bee, ĺiberty
Hello from Tennessee! I'm so sorry to hear about your back and neck pains! I'm praying you'll be feeling better really soon sweet lady. 🩵🩵🩵. This mornings stitching was wonderful with you today. Your stitching is just so beautiful. 😊 Thank you for being so generous with us all too. 💙💙💙 ,( hester, bee ) Your Afghan looks so festive. Thank you for the tip with the hooks. My hubby wanted me to teach him and whew it's hard to teach someone to not crochet too tight. 😂😂 He's moved on to cross stitch.... Lots easier to teach. 😊😊. Happy anniversary to your channel. 🎉🎉
Happy Anniversary, it is such a pleasure to watch your videos. I am so sorry to hear you fell, IO hope you are recovering quickly. What a lovely gift from Diane, it is beautiful, and the frame is perfect. Oh my, the stitchers box is adorable, your gifts are wonderful you know you are loved. I am a big fan of the Wishing Thorn. Nice progress on your stitching, love the framed design. Wonderful stash enhancement, sweet box from the fanciful flamingo, looking forward to your next video. Hester, Bee, Liberty.
So much creative sweetness!! Beautiful and fun to review, and fabulous sharing, too! Hester, Bee, Liberty all look fun! Loving your crochet blanket!! I love catching up with you and seeing your crafty adventures, thank you for sharing your adventures in crafting, I would love to see more wool applique!!
Shellie I so look forward to catching up with all your stitching adventures each time the notification pops up. Thanks so much! The Hester Van Dorn pattern is just beautiful.
I love your video. You have such a calming voice and your projects are beautiful. Thank you for sharing all the things. ❤️ We use the word kindness a lot in my kindergarten class. I hope my little ones take that with them more than anything. 🥰 Liberty.
Happy Anniversary! So glad you are recovering from your nasty fall. I loved your explanation of your word of the year, mine this year is carried over from last year - intentional. With four kids under 17, I need to keep reminding myself I need to be intentional with my time, their time, activities, education, etc. Hester bee
I remember when you and Liz first did the first video. So many things I’ve seen and bought since then! Congratulations!!! Thank you for sharing all your knowledge of so many stitchy things. Hester, bee, liberty.
First time viewer and I really enjoyed it. Happy first anniversary! I love your plans on kindness. Wouldn't it great if we all practiced that....what a difference our world could be. Ill be a regular visitor from now on. So....Hester and Liberty....
I would love the busy pouch. It caught my eye right away! My family calls my sweet 2 year old granddaughter BEE! Her name is Norah but when she was born her big brother (2 at the time), Jackson, called her beebee. We shortened it to 🐝 ! Love your show!
Your afghan reminds me of one my grandmother made me when I was 11. It was pink green and cream I still have that afghan and I am 62!! Hester,bee, liberty
Oh no! I’m so sorry you had a tumble. So glad your injuries were not serious and that you are on the mend! Prayers for continued healing! I really like your word of the year and I think your idea to sprinkle it throughout your stitching and your house is wonderful! If you don’t mind I may copy you with my word “joy”, it’s already in several places but I’d really like to have some stitches with it. Hugs, sweet lady! Hope you have a better week and that you are healthy enough to de-Christmas your house. ❤
Happy Anniversary sure hope this one of many years to come. I look forward to your floss tubes. You have such a KIND heart! ❤️❤️ you have encouraged me to pick up some of my other hobbies. I haven’t knitted in about 25 years, I couldn’t believe how it automatically came back. Your finishes were beautiful! Loved all three charts Hester, the Bee and Liberty… I am stitching on “Ellis Holiday 1809”, Flight into Egypt such pretty colors and so much fun to stitch on these cold winter days. Blessings and healing !
I am so excited I won the knitting project bag, sent you email so excited. Thank you so much❤ Keeping you in prayers for healing.🙏 Hester, Bee, liberty
Another great video- hard to believe it’s been a year already! Glad that your neck is feeling better. They used to have a quilting bee at my church but all those women have passed away too. Thanks for taking the time to share your stitching with us. Liberty
Liberty and Hester the bee are the very best of friends 😂. Thank you for the advice about framing straight border pieces. I also like your advice about connecting squares on the crochet afghan. It looks very neat and tidy!
My word for the year is GRACE. I pray everyday that I will grow in grace this year. You are the epitome of kindness...love your recent videos. Hester, Bee and Liberty.
So sorry to hear about your fall. Glad you are doing better! Love your afghan, it has inspired me to start one in red, white and blue. Thanks for all you do. Hester , Bee , Liberty
oh Shellie- so glad you were not hurt too seriously! Hopefully you will rest and feel better soon! Don’t feel bad- I didn’t fall and I still have my Christmas decorations up. I usually put them away slowly the month of January. The last thing to get put away is the tree. 😊 I like to enjoy all the pretty decorations for as long as I can🤪🥰. Hester looks like a beautiful stitch! Bee is a cute little handy bag and liberty looks fun too. Thank you so much for sharing! Happy stitching!
Congratulations on your anniversary!! I’ve watched you since day 1 and really enjoy your beautiful stitching. I’m on board with kindness. Our oldest daughter won the kindest person award at school and we told her that one meant more to us than any other. ❤ Being kind is easy and I’m going to try and do more like you are. Finally, I enjoy the 4th of July celebrating liberty and the summer bee that chases us around!! PS. I hope you recover soon from your fall. 🙏🏼
So sorry to hear about your accident!!!! Take care of yourself and be careful!!! We, as wives and mom' tend to keep doing all the things when we sometimes need to care for ourselves. I plan to focus more on kindness myself. Selfishly, it makes me feel better and gives me joy. I think Hester enjoyed her liberty in showing kindness as well!
Happy Flosstubiversary! It's been so fun watching you this past year. Your a delight to watch and your stitching is beautiful. Looking forward to the next year. Hopefully your recovering from your fall. Hester is right up my one color stitch alley. Bee, Liberty Thanks Shellie
Oh love, so sorry for your slip (not skip! auto un-corrected) and fall. I will keep you in prayers 🙏 ❤ 💕 And happy 1st anniversary ❤ I hope there will be many more. I so enjoy all you accomplish Shellie and you are just one lovely lady❤ Love monochromatic Hester!
For your 'material pocket' on the back of your planner...you might want to put stabilizer on the fabric to give it strength. You could even scan one of your finishes, or part of one, and print it on fabric (research that...) and use that as a fun fabric for your pocket! That planner is the best!!!! Hester has been on my list for a long time! When I watch your videos I always think "she and I were long distant neighbors!" (I grew up just over the river in Northern Ky, my mom workedin Cincy, I went to ballet in Hyde Park...and of course I love my Skyline chili!!) I live and work in central Florida and will one day wander back up that way again.Thanks for the video! Inspiring as always!
Good to see you! Hope you are feeling better and better every day! Hester has been on my list for a while so I’d love that pattern So, Hester, Hester, Hester!!! Thanks Shellie!
Happy New Year & congratulations on your 1 year anniversary❤️🎉 Fantastic video, great info & stitching fun as always! Love your idea for radical kindness. Mine is compassion, b/c so many we know have had either significant losses of family members, accidents & illnesses- 2023 was sort of a rough year, so I decided more compassionate acts would be a goal for me in hopes of lifting people up. Prayers for a full recovery from your fall & so glad it wasn’t worse! My husband fell off a ladder on 11/15 & broke 2 ribs, so I sympathize with the pain & recovery. Take care & happy stitching ❤️🪡🧵 Liberty, Hester
BEE, liberty and Hester! I seem to have the opposite problem, Shellie! I order patterns that I already have… I must really love them! Thanks for the uplifting video! ❤
Happy Anniversary Shellie! Love your videos, always so inspiring. Sending prayers for healing. The Hester chart is so pretty. Now I really want to make a granny square afghan too! 😊
Happy Flosstube-anniversary! Sorry for the incident 😮 I remember I watched your Mill House Tour when I was considering starting a Flosstube. And now I'm happy you find my video helpful. I also liked that white sampler a lot! Happy stitching! Tetiana from Heritage Stitching
A whole year already? Congratulations, I have enjoyed every one of your videos! Very glad you were not seriously injured, and I hope your remaining stiffness and pain heal soon. Such lovely projects, especially your sweet crochet afghan. I would love to stitch Hester or Liberty ❤
Happy New Year Shellie. So glad you are doing better from your fall. Congratulations on your 1st year floss tube anniversary. Thank you for sharing all your beautiful stitching finishes and treasures. Loved them all. Hester bee Liberty
I am so with you about losing or misplacing a chart. The interesting thing that as soon as you finish stitching up the words you are going to find that missing chart. It always happens that way. The piece is beautiful and such a nice tribute to you and your husband.
Happy 1st Anniversary. I’ve loved every one and look forward to each one. Sorry to hear of your fall but but glad you weren’t seriously hurt. I’m sure you & your family were scared. Would love to see your behind the couch & beside the recliner baskets. Please share the basket too that they are hanging out in. Happy creating and have a blessed week.
Hi there! So sorry about your fall. I fell the week before Christmas and broke my left shoulder. Stitching is getting easier thankfully! Bee and Liberty for me! Take care of yourself. Blessings.
Happy Anniversary, Happy New Year! Sorry to learn of your accident…dang that had to really hurt. Sounds like you have some wonderful friends. A little bee named Hester took the liberty to fly back to the hive.
I absolutely love Hester in your last video & Bee 😊 I enjoy your video so much. So glad yo didn’t damage your back worse. I’m just coming off back surgery & girl! It’s a lifetime commitment 😩 but was necessary.. thanks so much for sharing ,,
Shellie congratulations on your flosstube 1st year🎉. So sorry about your accident I’ll be praying for your complete recovery. I appreciate you sharing your stitching and giving us additional information on hoops and threads. I started cross stitching a year ago and finding it is helpful to keep my hands busy.
Shelly, nothing wrong with the decorations still being up but you know your husband and children could help take them down this year girl. Yes, it’s okay! Bee for me.
Take care Shellie! I fell down on a sunny day and broke my arm last year - you don’t want to do that!! ( though physical therapy was a miracle, if you continue to have mobility issues I can’t recommend it enough) I live Mary Poppins and just was awestruck with Bernadette Banner’s MP dress! Her book sounds very helpful. It is such fun to hear a floss tuber mention one of your non cross stitch fascinations. Have a great kindness filled year!
Shellie, I have to share about my pattern loss. I am a crocheter. My little sister saw a wedding dress in my magazine and commented that “that’s the wedding dress I want”. She was all of 13, but something made me order the pattern….7 yrs later, engaged, she asked if I remembered the wedding dress in the magazine.

Another Lovely video. The grocery store is where I give a lot of service. People can't reaching items, bagging groceries for a moms with a crying babies that don't have a free hand, taking people in to buy a meal who are outside looking for help. My word (first word for me) is Intentional. Liberty and Bee. Thank you for sharing
Prayer for speedy recovery. I have watched Berrndette for some time - she is wonderful. Intential acts of kinds are so rewarding. Bee
Really enjoyed this Flosstube! But, I always love each one you do. I'm so sorry to hear you fell and glad that you are on the way to feeling better.

I would love the busy pouch. It caught my eye right away! My family calls my sweet 2 year old granddaughter BEE! Her name is Norah but when she was born her big brother (2 at the time), Jackson, called her beebee. We shortened it to 🐝 ! Love your show!
Hope you’re feeling better very soon, Shellie. Le Bonheur des Dames translates to Happiness of the Ladies. Great name for a shop! Bee
Thank you for the translation- I love it!!
Your afghan reminds me of one my grandmother made me when I was 11. It was pink green and cream I still have that afghan and I am 62!! Hester,bee, liberty

So sorry to hear about your fall. Glad you are doing better! Love your afghan, it has inspired me to start one in red, white and blue. Thanks for all you do. Hester , Bee , Liberty
oh Shellie- so glad you were not hurt too seriously! Hopefully you will rest and feel better soon! Don’t feel bad- I didn’t fall and I still have my Christmas decorations up. I usually put them away slowly the month of January. The last thing to get put away is the tree. 😊 I like to enjoy all the pretty decorations for as long as I can🤪🥰. Hester looks like a beautiful stitch! Bee is a cute little handy bag and liberty looks fun too. Thank you so much for sharing! Happy stitching!
Congratulations on your anniversary!! I’ve watched you since day 1 and really enjoy your beautiful stitching. I’m on board with kindness. Our oldest daughter won the kindest person award at school and we told her that one meant more to us than any other. ❤ Being kind is easy and I’m going to try and do more like you are. Finally, I enjoy the 4th of July celebrating liberty and the summer bee that chases us around!! PS. I hope you recover soon from your fall. 🙏🏼
Hester is a beautiful lady's name. congrats on your flossaversary!
So sorry to hear about your accident!!!! Take care of yourself and be careful!!! We, as wives and mom' tend to keep doing all the things when we sometimes need to care for ourselves. I plan to focus more on kindness myself. Selfishly, it makes me feel better and gives me joy. I think Hester enjoyed her liberty in showing kindness as well!
Congratulations on your first year anniversary. I love your videos, very inspriational. Thank you for sharing. Hester, Bee, Liberty

(I grew up just over the river in Northern Ky, my mom workedin Cincy, I went to ballet in Hyde Park...and of course I love my Skyline chili!!) I live and work in central Florida and will one day wander back up that way again.Thanks for the video! Inspiring as always!
Thanks for sharing....always fun watch...Hester, liberty and the bird is so amazing...the bee is so amazing...please take care
Good to see you! Hope you are feeling better and better every day! Hester has been on my list for a while so I’d love that pattern So, Hester, Hester, Hester!!! Thanks Shellie!
Happy Anniversary! I aiways look forward to watching your videos. Hester and Liberty.
Happy New Year & congratulations on your 1 year anniversary❤️🎉 Fantastic video, great info & stitching fun as always! Love your idea for radical kindness. Mine is compassion, b/c so many we know have had either significant losses of family members, accidents & illnesses- 2023 was sort of a rough year, so I decided more compassionate acts would be a goal for me in hopes of lifting people up.
Prayers for a full recovery from your fall & so glad it wasn’t worse! My husband fell off a ladder on 11/15 & broke 2 ribs, so I sympathize with the pain & recovery.
Take care & happy stitching ❤️🪡🧵
Liberty, Hester
Happy one year Flosstube anniversary.
BEE, liberty and Hester! I seem to have the opposite problem, Shellie! I order patterns that I already have… I must really love them! Thanks for the uplifting video! ❤
I’m so sorry you fell! Thankful you aren’t injured. I hope you rest and bounce back soon! I enjoyed all you had to share!
Happy Anniversary Shellie! Love your videos, always so inspiring. Sending prayers for healing. The Hester chart is so pretty. Now I really want to make a granny square afghan too! 😊
Shellie sorry about your fall. Glad you're on the mend. Happy Flossiversary 🎉! Great video as usual. Hester and Liberty will be a beautiful stitch.
Happy Anniversary- beautiful stitching- love that bee pouch ❤
Happy Flosstube-anniversary! Sorry for the incident 😮 I remember I watched your Mill House Tour when I was considering starting a Flosstube. And now I'm happy you find my video helpful. I also liked that white sampler a lot! Happy stitching! Tetiana from Heritage Stitching
Oh to bee as sweet as you, that is my goal. I love your spirit
A whole year already? Congratulations, I have enjoyed every one of your videos! Very glad you were not seriously injured, and I hope your remaining stiffness and pain heal soon. Such lovely projects, especially your sweet crochet afghan. I would love to stitch Hester or Liberty ❤
Love your idea of intermixing the small frames with the larger pieces. Liberty
Happy New Year Shellie. So glad you are doing better from your fall. Congratulations on your 1st year floss tube anniversary. Thank you for sharing all your beautiful stitching finishes and treasures. Loved them all. Hester bee Liberty
I am so with you about losing or misplacing a chart. The interesting thing that as soon as you finish stitching up the words you are going to find that missing chart. It always happens that way. The piece is beautiful and such a nice tribute to you and your husband.
Happy 1st Anniversary. I’ve loved every one and look forward to each one. Sorry to hear of your fall but but glad you weren’t seriously hurt. I’m sure you & your family were scared. Would love to see your behind the couch & beside the recliner baskets. Please share the basket too that they are hanging out in. Happy creating and have a blessed week.
Hi there! So sorry about your fall. I fell the week before Christmas and broke my left shoulder. Stitching is getting easier thankfully! Bee and Liberty for me! Take care of yourself. Blessings.
Happy Anniversary, Happy New Year!
Sorry to learn of your accident…dang that had to really hurt.
Sounds like you have some wonderful friends. A little bee named Hester took the liberty to fly back to the hive.
I absolutely love Hester in your last video & Bee 😊 I enjoy your video so much. So glad yo didn’t damage your back worse. I’m just coming off back surgery & girl! It’s a lifetime commitment 😩 but was necessary.. thanks so much for sharing ,,
I pray you continue healing, I've enjoyed your floss tube ...Hester,Bee,Libery
Shellie congratulations on your flosstube 1st year🎉. So sorry about your accident I’ll be praying for your complete recovery. I appreciate you sharing your stitching and giving us additional information on hoops and threads. I started cross stitching a year ago and finding it is helpful to keep my hands busy.
Wow!!! I LOVE that blue sampler with the bird!!!! Hester bee and my house is red white and blue and the liberty pattern would be perfect!
Let there BEE floss! Give me LIBERTY!
Shelly, nothing wrong with the decorations still being up but you know your husband and children could help take them down this year girl. Yes, it’s okay! Bee for me.
Take care Shellie! I fell down on a sunny day and broke my arm last year - you don’t want to do that!! ( though physical therapy was a miracle, if you continue to have mobility issues I can’t recommend it enough)
I live Mary Poppins and just was awestruck with Bernadette Banner’s MP dress! Her book sounds very helpful. It is such fun to hear a floss tuber mention one of your non cross stitch fascinations.
Have a great kindness filled year!
