Brenda and Laura I’m new to flosstubes, watching from the beginning, from my daughter who has started cross stitching. I’m 70 and she is 42. I just LOVED that you mentioned that store in Rockford - The Needle and I. When I lived in Loves Park I would go walk around in there and just dream. As at that time I was raising my family and not much splurge money for cross stitching. But you talking about it and showing your Santa brought back such awesome memories. I feel we have a small tiny connect.
Love your videos. I am thinking I will rewatch this one with my hubby at my side. Then I can tell him....” See, I do not have too many unstitched projects in MY basket!” 😄
You are a new found joy of stitching! Most channels make me crazy as they are so anesthetizing, word?, anyway, you are funny, entertaining and too real. Keep stitching and sharing!
Thanks for helping me study. I've got a lot of reading done while listening to you in the background. And only a couple of distractions to add to my charts I need to get list x
Do you have to go??? Hurry back ladies! Stash dive and WIP parades ....I can indulge in ALL day!! MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU BOTH AND TO YOUR FAMILIES!! HAPPY STITCHING TODAY AND EVERYDAY!!
You guys ares just awesome. I have been stitching for 40 years and am a cfo for a credit union and have visited some of the shops you guys talk about because I live in nw Indiana feel like I am sitting with my stitching friends when I watch you guys. Looking forward to many more
Thanks so much Karol!!! Isn't it exciting when someone mentions a shop you know about??? I used to live in Highland, IN and Schererville, IN. I loved that area! Happy Stitching!!!
I love all the bags. I got out all my old Vera Bradley bags, which are quilted with pockets inside to hold things and they are working out great but I’m lusting after those bags too. I love watching you two, so inspiring, now I want to do all little Christmas things.
Another wonderful floss tube! I so enjoyed seeing all your Christmas finishes and wips. You both make me smile! When I see you have a new video up, I’ll stop what I’m doing to watch! Thanks for all your hard work!🌺
thanks dear Brenda and Lauren for this fantastic video, i have the flu and feeling horrible and sad, but after your great video with the most gorgeous stitchery and your cheerfulness i am feeling a bit better 😍so thank you again! Have a wonderful christmas with your family!
What a wonderful video and it was so much fun to see all your stitched and kitted-up and still in the wrappers patterns for Christmas. So many choices....so little time! Thank you for sharing!
The project bags! Charts! Stitched finishes! Plans! ❤️❤️❤️. Shameful in the best way! Oh, and I’m in love with Miss Lucy! Love looking at your “stuff”! 2020 sampler plans, I can’t wait! Merry Christmas 🤗
Wow! Miss Lucy!! Have a fun time stitching her, Brenda! Such happy, happy colors and such a joy to stitch! I also love your LH motif sampler finish. So very sweet. Laura, I love that framed finish you showed from Heartstring. I have to go look for that sampler! Love seeing all the Christmas designs. Lots of inspiration and holiday fun! I love watching you both and sometimes I feel like I am there with you having a chat - :) Merry Christmas! Happy Stitching!
I so enjoy you gals. The friendship you have seems very special. Your project choices reflect the projects I enjoy and your stitching is amazing. I also think you have scooped up subscribers faster than any floss tube I've seen. Good for you gals you deserve it. Robin Pollard
Hi, y’all! I am only at 10 minutes into this video, and i just had to stop to say that y’all have already blown me away beautiful fabric, floss, ornaments, and patterns, which I love ❤️, but most especially, y’all have made me laugh! 🤣 You are both amazing! Thank you 😊 Meline
Laura! I’m 57 almost 58, I’m married with no children and we have a cat named Flossie! I used to be addicted to Tab, but you can’t get it in Australia anymore. You girls are fab ... I love the same stuff you do, so it’s always a feast. Thankyou.
What??????????????????????? Oh my goodness!!!!! We are like twins!!!! That is so cool!!! Did I say that our cat is named Flossie? I can't remember. That is just astounding. I am sorry you cannot get Tab in Australia. Do you drink Diet Coke then? I guess that would be what I would have to do. Australia is big so I don't know if you are near The Crewel Goblin in Sydney (at least I think it's in Sydney).....we have some dear friends who shop and stitch there. Wishing you a Merry Christmas Keryn!!!
Brenda and the Serial Starter ... Tab was replaced by Diet Coke, I was devastated! I even remember the song ... “Tab ... Tab Cola ... for beautiful people ...”. Oh ... the video was playing as I’m answering - I, too, love music, reading and stitching. Spooky! Have a gorgeous Christmas ... 💜
Love, love you ladies! I'm new to this flosstube world but find your format both engaging and informative. Your review of products is non-stop and I go back over your program several times. Hope you have a great holiday. Thank you for brightening my life!
I think we all have a basket of shame in our lives. The drum is gorgeous. I need a Joy in my life. Pen and notepad are a given when I watch your videos. Lovely Christmas patterns and of course I had to get some
Hi Brenda and Laura. Love how Brenda had `Winter in Baltimore` as a drum. This is beautiful. I have brought my Linen by the metre on my favourite colours and count as I didn`t always have the car to go an get some. Sometimes I paid this off as layby when budget was tight. :) Love those DMC colours on those thread drops. Love Saltbox houses. After Christmas I will get back to my for the birds from BBD. Your large Santa with the cute cat at his feet and the sampler is so wonderful I can see how your family Brenda so love it. I have `Sampler Santa` kitted up but yet to start. So love him. Happy stitching to both of you. You are both like friends coming to visit my home.
Another wonderful video... such pretty Christmas pieces... and charts I've never seen before! I am anxiously awaiting your next video... you guys are such a tease... I"m making my plans for 2020 too... so many many many things I want to stitch... happy stitching!!
Oh, you ladies are just so inspiring. I watched you for the first time last weekend and I have been catching up on all your videos this week. I cannot tell you what a delight that has been. Brenda, Please don’t take your older designs out of their frames, they have been done exquisitely, and they are just of their time. Laura, you have got to get all those gorgeous Christmas smalls/ ornaments finished and on display, they are beautiful! Looking forward to you next video.
Thanks so much for your very kind comments Jean!!!! We so appreciate your leaving a comment and glad you are having fun watching our shenanigans!!! Until next time, happy stitching!!!
Hi Sisters in Stitching!!!! Another great video but I am already on the edge of my seat waiting for the next one!!! Laura- there is no such thing as having too much vintage light examplar linen!! LOVED your finish!!! I had no idea that piece was so pretty. I now have to buy it!!! Brenda- I would never stitch with 2 strands on 36ct. Use 1 strand and it will be gorgeous!!!! Merry Christmas and nothing but goodness for all of us in 2020!!!!
Thanks so much Mindy!!!!!! You are right about never too much about vintage light exemplar!! I love it now! and I know Brenda would never comply with 2 strands on 36....not gonna do it! Wishing you a very Merry Christmas!
I have been watching all of your videos and I just love it. You ladies are great so entertaining and just a joy to listen to and see what your are working on. I never like wanted to stitch just a red sampler until i saw some of the samplers on your site, but i have started my first red sampler as per the rule. Please keep making videos you ladies are a joy. Carol from Ottawa, Canada
There is nothing better than a Sunday afternoon with you girls. Yes, I have a basket of shame, yes I have purchased duplicate charts. Yesterday was our Christmas exchange and there were some real treasures. Beautiful finishes.
OMG! I have been binge watching your floss tube and can’t get enough of all your charts, starts, and finishes! You two make me laugh out loud. Once I’ve seen all your episodes, I will start over this time with paper and pencil to take notes. Love, love, you both.
I am so glad I found you ladies...your so much fun,you just made my Monday morning...well your 2nd in line for that,I heard my 3rd grandbabies heartbeat this morning...so so exciting...😍 Ahhhh love everything you two show ...your stitching your finishes,your planned stitching...ugghhhh you make me wanna stitch it all lol. Have a great week,both of you!
Thanks so much Crystal!!! How wonderful that you heard your grandchild's heartbeat this morning!!! Wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas!!!!!
You ladies shared some really pretty Christmas finishes...both new and from year's past. I look forward to hearing about your plans and seeing more of your amazing stitching. Have a Merry and Blessed Christmas.
Thank you ladies for another super flosstube! Of course, you made me go 'BIP' when I saw the Notforgotten Farm Christmastide Hanging Huswif - I kept seeing it behind you - love it! Have a wonderful Christmas and see you in the new year. xx
You both are very special ladies. I love you both. Your channel is a thrill to watch every time. Thank you for sharing your stitching enthusiasm! I hope you both have the best Christmas ever!💋
Love watching you banter back and forth and show all your beautiful stitching and charts. I’m feeling the urge to pull the trigger as Laura says on a sampler chart but will wait until after your next video.when you tempt us with more loveliness. Merry Christmas!
Thanks so much Carla!! Hope you find a sampler you want to stitch on the next "episode!" I am excited to work up my list!!! Wishing you a Merry Christmas!
So much fun with you both. I enjoyed seeing your beautiful finishes and the progress on the WIP(s) you are working on. The Christmas ornaments on the tree are wonderful and the future ornaments will be very nice when stitched. Happy holidays to you both and your families.
Just love you ladies - I am now sampler obsessed - thank you for sharing your beautiful work and WIPS and a bucket full of I want to stitch - Merry Christmas and look forward to plans for New Year
Shameful,shameful,shameful,just luv it.The two of you are the best!!!Enjoy your u tube sew much,I'm trying to knit while watching but had to put it down sew I could see all your Christmas stitches.Merry Christmas.
Oh what fun it is to watch a Floss Tube of Brenda and Laura! I smile when the video starts and don’t stop smiling until 15 minutes after it ends. Then I run to my computer to order all the charts I must stitch “stat”. Merry Christmas ladies. Looking forward to finding out what samplers to start in January. 🥰💖🎄
We had a Wheaton Scottie named Scruffy and he passed away about a month ago. He was 13.5 years old. He had the cutest face. Scotties are great dogs ,Scruffy was such a good boy.
It is so so hard to lose a beloved pet. It really hurts your heart. We both know that. We are sending you lots of hugs and I bet Scruffy was darling. Wish we could take away your heartache. Hope you have a peaceful Christmas.
Laurie - Brenda here. We had a Wheaton Scottie as well and lost her a couple of years ago and our hearts still hurt. Our fur babies are like family ❤️❤️. Thanks for watching!!!
You ladies have gone and spoilt us with such a fantastic video. What a gift you both are in your camaraderie and talent for stitching. Merry Christmas.
I just love you ladies. Your videos are so fun and it’s like sitting at the table with you both enjoying coffee and talking stitching and sharing our stash enhancements. Thanks for another amazing video now I’m off to do some shopping for s couple of those patterns lol. Merry Christmas
It was so much fun to see all your projects, and what could be better than seeing all the goodies in your Basket Brenda! Hope you two have a wonderful Christmas!!! Tammy
Oh my gosh you ladies are too cute together and what enablers! I could write pattern names down quickly enough. Love your channel. MERRY CHRISTMAS 🤶🏻🎅🏻🎁☃️
My goodness, you two are so very prolific and fabulous stitchers. I didn’t catch the name of the pattern with the 2 ladies and the pine tree in the middle...please enable me...lol. It is fun to catch up with you two and I too laugh and talk to you during the video. Enjoy your holidays and will be waiting for our next visit. Found it Christmas Tide from not forgotten farm. Yay
Glad you found it!!!!! It is so beautiful!! Glad you laugh and talk! I do the same when watching Maximum Cross Stitch Power Hour. Sometimes I laugh until I cry because Ellen is so hilarious!! Wishing you a Merry Christmas!
More more MORE! I love you two! Stitching vicariously through you... and still purchasing more charts that I can't seem to find the time or talent to complete.... sigh... a very Merry Christmas to both of you!!
Thanks so much Amy!!!! And if you can find the time I know you can stitch anything!!! Just google any questions you have and there is probably a video for it. I have to Google stem stitch the other night. If we can help, just let us know.....although Brenda knows way more than I do!!! Wishing you a Merry Christmas!!!
So inspiring yet again ladies! May I wish you both a Happy Christmas and I look forward to following your stitching adventures in the New Year. Best wishes from Herefordshire, England.
I love every videos you have done. They shouldn’t be under one hour, that’s a new law 😉 I was glad to see that someone has the Jack Frost tree farm chart. I have been working on it exclusively to be able to have it done before Christmas. It’s might not be all done but close...
Best way to start the day, coffee with Brenda and Laura! Have a wonderful Christmas celebration. I can’t wait to see and hear all about your plans for 2020.
Hi gals….I found your videos a couple weeks ago and never miss a day without the two of you. On one of your videos, you showed and talked about the most cool witches. You note where to find them. Of course I can not find that again. If you can, please send the witch designer and where I can order them. Thank you, Edna
Oh, my goodness, ladies!! Brenda, your stash of Christmas....holy cow!! Both of you help my mental health, I can get really down on myself because I have sooo much stash (going back about 30 years), and yup, Laura, I also have Ida Nolt! Now that one must go to the top of my pile! Well, if I'm crazy, at least I'm not alone!!! Thank you so much for taking the time to show all of us your work and treasures.....Merry Christmas!
You are not alone!!!!! We are in this together!! Thank goodness for stash so that when you see something (Ida Nolt) you have it and can go look at it and start dreaming about it!!! Thanks for taking the time to comment!!!! Merry Christmas!
Consumercrafts.com has 3x5 inch oval wooden hoops...very inexpensive but you have to purchase 6 (if you go to their website enter oval wooden hoops in their search bar). Loved this video...so much wonderful stitching you both do!
Abundant happiness! That is what you two bring us all. Many wishes for a Merry Christmas and all the best you could dream of in 2020! Thank you and please keep bringing happiness to our homes. So fun!😘
As always so much eye candy to look at! Love seeing what you all are stitching! Hope you both have a Very Merry Christmas🎄! Looking forward to your next video and can't wait to see what Christmas might bring you all!
Thanks so much!!! Merry Christmas to you too! We always hope that Santa brings us lots of stitching stuff, but our families think we already have too much and don't get us stitchy presents.....but you never know.
Wow! You ladies never cease to amaze me!!! Such beautiful projects and finishes!!! Your pattern stashes are fantastic!! Have a very Merry Christmas around your beautiful trees!!!!
Another wonderful video!!!! Love the CHRISTMAS PARADE OF CHARTS !!! I have several of the charts you showed and need to start them too!!!! Merry Christmas to you and your families and I am looking forward to the Sampler Parade after Christmas!!!!! Hugs, Lynn
Merry Christmas Lynn!!!!!!! We sure do love a lot of the same charts don't we?? I imagine you are going to AZ for a few months....hope to see you in the Spring!!!! Merry Christmas!!!
Love you girls! A fun video! Thanks for all the sharing! That basket full of Christmas was so fun to watch! You both have great stash and finishes! I just smile when watching you! Merry Christmas to you and yours! I am starting my Top 10 list for 2020! Hope to get lots more events together next year! Love ya....
We love you Pam!!!! Miss you!!! We have to get together ASAP when you get back from AZ. Have a wonderful time!!! Let us know what is on your list for 2020...we may need to copy. Merry Christmas!!!
5 x 9 or 3.5 x 5 oval hoops - at DebsCrossStitch at Etsy. Both of you have a Wonderful Christmas and Happy New Year!! May Santa bring you everything you wanted and more!!! Love watching you both!!
I love your videos. You are such enablers. I had to go find Cranberry Christmas by Prairie Schooler. I love them. We actually stitch alot of the same things. I have done all Little house needlework and country cottage needleworks ornaments. I have a tree with them on it. I keep it out year around. I am a bit of a serial starter myself😉 Merry Christmas!
Love your videos, now looking for a club to join. 🤗 would love some ideas. I love the primitive, folk, and farm/country patterns. Love show and tell! Thank you, you both are a joy to watch Merry Christmas Ladies 🎄
Thanks Shawn! Look at Country Sampler for a prim club to join. I think they may be starting a Stacy Nash club in the new year!!!!! at least I hope so. Sign up for their newsletter. Also, check out Dyeing to Stitch website. They have 3 clubs and sign up time is near I think. Oh, and Not Forgotten Farm just announced a new club. Check her out on Etsy. Merry Christmas!
Another wonderful video! Laura, you’re right, it is so much fun going through other people’s stash. You both have so many lovely finishes and charts! And now I have to wander off and find Tracy’s channel. I LOVE that chart you showed at the end, Laura. Can’t wait to see what else she does and support her! Wishing you both a very Merry Christmas! ❤️
Thanks Jan!!!!!!! I hope I can remember to mention your wonderful videos about floss, stash, linen, etc. They are really helpful for newbies and "old" stitchers alike!!! You are doing a great service to the community. Tracy's channel is Hands to Work. Hope you already found it because she is wonderful and very fun to watch. The chart I showed was called Ida Nolt. I am pretty sure it is at the top of her to be re-released pile. Wishing you a Merry Christmas!!! and next year this time you will be on the mainland!!! Woohoo!!! Hope to see you next September!!!
We need to do it!!!!!!! Isn't it fun when the floss tube videos make me laugh!! Sometimes I laugh so hard I cry! Thanks for letting us know you are the same!
Hi ladies!! Just started watching your videos from the beginning. I love love love you girls and love all your work! I’m in episode 8 and I have purchased so many things I’ve seen from you lovely ladies, by the time I catch up with all your videos I’m going to be broke! 😅 sorry not sorry 😂 sending you ladies much love from New York! 💜
Loved everything. Brenda, your 1990s finishes with fancy matting make me very nostalgic . Laura, I enjoyed how you egged Brenda on to keep showing Christmas things at the end. I look forward to your next Flosstube! Merry Christmas!
Enjoyable as always! Seeing you obsessed about one design made me chuckle. You may need to change your name! I am the same way. If the pattern, the flosses and the cloth are all three just right, I can't put it down. Yours looks perfect! I like the large Santa because it has lots to look at and is large. Have a Merry Christmas!
Thanks so much Chris!!! I finished that first block last night so I may be able to start something else tonight!! Who knows, I may just keep going though. You are so right about what happens when all the elements of a design come together. Merry Christmas!!
Just a follow up, I got my hoop and put my stitched piece in and it’s perfect. The hoops are already stained, several options so no need to think about that part 😀 Merry Christmas to both of you!
💕 you two ladies! You brightened my evening. I couldn’t fall asleep. “Oh heavenly days.” Awesome 😂 Top of the start pile today!!! 😂 yes, so fun! I’m stitching a Christmas stocking for my daughter in law. So this video is perfect motivation. You two are so inspiring and such lovely stitching takent💕
Thank you that was a lovely video. Your work is brilliant and your plans are amazing. Merry Christmas. Looking forward to the New Year to see your next one.
Merry Christmas ladies. Look forward to your videos, thank you both for sharing and always putting a smile on my face. Looking forward to your next one.
I’m having a blasted watching your stash of Christmas goodie. You have know ideas how much you are educating us out here the floss tube world. 🌺👍🏻 thank you.
Great video!! I loved when you guys were showing patterns and Brenda to get here basket of patterns and then said that the video would be four hours long - I would have loved for it to be four hours long. Hugs and happy stitching and I wish you both a blessed Christmas!! Loved seeing all your projects; the L W Samper is so gorgeous.
Thanks so much Pam!!!! I could sit through four hours of showing Christmas charts for sure!!! We will never run out of stuff to show that's for sure! Wishing you a Merry Christmas!
Just absolutely love your projects. Love, Love them. 😀 You gals are a hoot. Thank You for a fun visit. Wishing you both and your families Merry Christmas.

LOVED your finish!!! I had no idea that piece was so pretty. I now have to buy it!!!
Brenda- I would never stitch with 2 strands on 36ct. Use 1 strand and it will be gorgeous!!!!
Merry Christmas and nothing but goodness for all of us in 2020!!!!

Thank you so much Bonnie!!!!! What a kind comment! Merry Christmas!
We had a Wheaton Scottie named Scruffy and he passed away about a month ago. He was 13.5 years old. He had the cutest face. Scotties are great dogs ,Scruffy was such a good boy.
It is so so hard to lose a beloved pet. It really hurts your heart. We both know that. We are sending you lots of hugs and I bet Scruffy was darling. Wish we could take away your heartache. Hope you have a peaceful Christmas.
@@brendaandtheserialstarter2410 thank you both! Merry Christmas!
Laurie - Brenda here. We had a Wheaton Scottie as well and lost her a couple of years ago and our hearts still hurt. Our fur babies are like family ❤️❤️. Thanks for watching!!!

That is a great point Barbara!!!!!!! Genius!!! Merry Christmas!
My goodness, you two are so very prolific and fabulous stitchers. I didn’t catch the name of the pattern with the 2 ladies and the pine tree in the middle...please enable me...lol. It is fun to catch up with you two and I too laugh and talk to you during the video. Enjoy your holidays and will be waiting for our next visit.
Found it Christmas Tide from not forgotten farm. Yay
Glad you found it!!!!! It is so beautiful!! Glad you laugh and talk! I do the same when watching Maximum Cross Stitch Power Hour. Sometimes I laugh until I cry because Ellen is so hilarious!! Wishing you a Merry Christmas!
You two are so funny. Just loved it. I want to see more of both your stashes.... please.

More more MORE! I love you two! Stitching vicariously through you... and still purchasing more charts that I can't seem to find the time or talent to complete.... sigh... a very Merry Christmas to both of you!!
Thanks so much Amy!!!! And if you can find the time I know you can stitch anything!!! Just google any questions you have and there is probably a video for it. I have to Google stem stitch the other night. If we can help, just let us know.....although Brenda knows way more than I do!!! Wishing you a Merry Christmas!!!
So inspiring yet again ladies! May I wish you both a Happy Christmas and I look forward to following your stitching adventures in the New Year. Best wishes from Herefordshire, England.

I love every videos you have done. They shouldn’t be under one hour, that’s a new law 😉
I was glad to see that someone has the Jack Frost tree farm chart. I have been working on it exclusively to be able to have it done before Christmas. It’s might not be all done but close...
Thanks Jocelyn!!!!! I bet your Jack Frost looks fabulous!!! Merry Christmas!
Best way to start the day, coffee with Brenda and Laura! Have a wonderful Christmas celebration. I can’t wait to see and hear all about your plans for 2020.

That "for the birds" piece is beautiful! And I loved the 2 older framed and matted pieces Brenda shared. Gorgeous!
Thanks so much!!!!!!!
Hi gals….I found your videos a couple weeks ago and never miss a day without the two of you. On one of your videos, you showed and talked about the most cool witches. You note where to find them. Of course I can not find that again. If you can, please send the witch designer and where I can order them. Thank you, Edna
Oh, my goodness, ladies!! Brenda, your stash of Christmas....holy cow!! Both of you help my mental health, I can get really down on myself because I have sooo much stash (going back about 30 years), and yup, Laura, I also have Ida Nolt! Now that one must go to the top of my pile! Well, if I'm crazy, at least I'm not alone!!!
Thank you so much for taking the time to show all of us your work and treasures.....Merry Christmas!
You are not alone!!!!! We are in this together!! Thank goodness for stash so that when you see something (Ida Nolt) you have it and can go look at it and start dreaming about it!!! Thanks for taking the time to comment!!!! Merry Christmas!
Consumercrafts.com has 3x5 inch oval wooden hoops...very inexpensive but you have to purchase 6 (if you go to their website enter oval wooden hoops in their search bar). Loved this video...so much wonderful stitching you both do!
Thanks for the information and your kind comment Sue!!!! Merry Christmas!!!!
Abundant happiness! That is what you two bring us all. Many wishes for a Merry Christmas and all the best you could dream of in 2020! Thank you and please keep bringing happiness to our homes. So fun!😘
What kind words Susan!! Thank you so much for your beautiful well wishes. We sure appreciate them. Merry Christmas!!!
As always so much eye candy to look at! Love seeing what you all are stitching! Hope you both have a Very Merry Christmas🎄! Looking forward to your next video and can't wait to see what Christmas might bring you all!
Thanks so much!!! Merry Christmas to you too! We always hope that Santa brings us lots of stitching stuff, but our families think we already have too much and don't get us stitchy presents.....but you never know.
Wow! You ladies never cease to amaze me!!! Such beautiful projects and finishes!!! Your pattern stashes are fantastic!! Have a very Merry Christmas around your beautiful trees!!!!

5 x 9 or 3.5 x 5 oval hoops - at DebsCrossStitch at Etsy. Both of you have a Wonderful Christmas and Happy New Year!! May Santa bring you everything you wanted and more!!! Love watching you both!!
Thanks so much Linda!!! Merry Christmas!
I love your videos. You are such enablers. I had to go find Cranberry Christmas by Prairie Schooler. I love them. We actually stitch alot of the same things. I have done all Little house needlework and country cottage needleworks ornaments. I have a tree with them on it. I keep it out year around. I am a bit of a serial starter myself😉 Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas Darleen!!!! So glad we have so many stitches in common!!! I hope we can meet someday!!!
Love your videos, now looking for a club to join. 🤗 would love some ideas. I love the primitive, folk, and farm/country patterns. Love show and tell! Thank you, you both are a joy to watch
Merry Christmas Ladies 🎄
Thanks Shawn! Look at Country Sampler for a prim club to join. I think they may be starting a Stacy Nash club in the new year!!!!! at least I hope so. Sign up for their newsletter. Also, check out Dyeing to Stitch website. They have 3 clubs and sign up time is near I think. Oh, and Not Forgotten Farm just announced a new club. Check her out on Etsy. Merry Christmas!
Another wonderful video! Laura, you’re right, it is so much fun going through other people’s stash. You both have so many lovely finishes and charts! And now I have to wander off and find Tracy’s channel. I LOVE that chart you showed at the end, Laura. Can’t wait to see what else she does and support her! Wishing you both a very Merry Christmas! ❤️
Thanks Jan!!!!!!! I hope I can remember to mention your wonderful videos about floss, stash, linen, etc. They are really helpful for newbies and "old" stitchers alike!!! You are doing a great service to the community. Tracy's channel is Hands to Work. Hope you already found it because she is wonderful and very fun to watch. The chart I showed was called Ida Nolt. I am pretty sure it is at the top of her to be re-released pile. Wishing you a Merry Christmas!!! and next year this time you will be on the mainland!!! Woohoo!!! Hope to see you next September!!!
Should of been writing down all the ones I want to do. Thanks for all the eye candy. Guess I’ll have to watch again.
Merry Christmas
Thanks Bonnie!!!!! Merry Christmas!!!
I just about woke my husband up laughing. “Yeah, me too”. For the sampler tree to Vonna . Lol. The way you popped around the chart. So funny cute
We need to do it!!!!!!! Isn't it fun when the floss tube videos make me laugh!! Sometimes I laugh so hard I cry! Thanks for letting us know you are the same!
Watching your channel is always such a treat with all the eye candy. Great ornaments!
Thanks so much Jenn!!! Merry Christmas!
I love your big Santa❤️Precious. You’ve inspired me to do some little Christmas ornaments to go in a bowl.
Hi ladies!! Just started watching your videos from the beginning. I love love love you girls and love all your work! I’m in episode 8 and I have purchased so many things I’ve seen from you lovely ladies, by the time I catch up with all your videos I’m going to be broke! 😅 sorry not sorry 😂 sending you ladies much love from New York! 💜
Thank you so much Adela!!!!! Don't go broke, but get as much stitchy stuff as you can!! Hugs!
Loved everything. Brenda, your 1990s finishes with fancy matting make me very nostalgic . Laura, I enjoyed how you egged Brenda on to keep showing Christmas things at the end. I look forward to your next Flosstube! Merry Christmas!
Thanks so much Lisa!!!! Merry Christmas!
Your podcast is so enjoyable. Lots of eye candy ladies and so beautiful.
Thank you for your kind compliment!!! Merry Christmas!
Enjoyable as always! Seeing you obsessed about one design made me chuckle. You may need to change your name! I am the same way. If the pattern, the flosses and the cloth are all three just right, I can't put it down. Yours looks perfect! I like the large Santa because it has lots to look at and is large. Have a Merry Christmas!
Thanks so much Chris!!! I finished that first block last night so I may be able to start something else tonight!! Who knows, I may just keep going though. You are so right about what happens when all the elements of a design come together. Merry Christmas!!
Just a follow up, I got my hoop and put my stitched piece in and it’s perfect. The hoops are already stained, several options so no need to think about that part 😀 Merry Christmas to both of you!
That is great Athena!!!!! Thanks for the follow-up! Merry Christmas!
💕 you two ladies! You brightened my evening. I couldn’t fall asleep. “Oh heavenly days.” Awesome 😂 Top of the start pile today!!! 😂 yes, so fun! I’m stitching a Christmas stocking for my daughter in law. So this video is perfect motivation. You two are so inspiring and such lovely stitching takent💕
Thank you that was a lovely video. Your work is brilliant and your plans are amazing. Merry Christmas. Looking forward to the New Year to see your next one.

I’m having a blasted watching your stash of Christmas goodie. You have know ideas how much you are educating us out here the floss tube world. 🌺👍🏻 thank you.
Thank you for your very sweet comment Melinda!!!!! Wishing you a Merry Christmas!
Great video!! I loved when you guys were showing patterns and Brenda to get here basket of patterns and then said that the video would be four hours long - I would have loved for it to be four hours long. Hugs and happy stitching and I wish you both a blessed Christmas!! Loved seeing all your projects; the L W Samper is so gorgeous.
Thanks so much Pam!!!! I could sit through four hours of showing Christmas charts for sure!!! We will never run out of stuff to show that's for sure! Wishing you a Merry Christmas!
Just absolutely love your projects. Love, Love them. 😀 You gals are a hoot. Thank You for a fun visit. Wishing you both and your families Merry Christmas.
