The Black Pumpkin finish is adorable. I am always impressed by your framing and carving. Best of luck with the upcoming surgeries for your fur babies. 🪡🪡🪡
Hi Jean! How have you been? Yes, next Thursday for Jas, and the following Monday for Sam, so it will be a busy two weeks! Yes, I want to make a couple more of the pumpkins (maybe over one so it's smaller, too)...I think they would make great gifts!
No, thank you for hosting! It's a really good reason for me to start both of the projects I have been wanting to do. Tomorrow when I can take better pics, I'll post my two planned projects on IG! Yeah, the pumpkin exceeded my expectations...when it comes to sewing, I have many fails, LOL! But this came out ok! :) (I just added a link to your TH-cam channel, too!)
Always love everything you are working on. Don’t beat yourself up about not filming. It’s hard when you start a new job. Thanks for sharing! Take care.
Thanks Theresa...yeah, every day I'm getting better about making a routine. I started getting up at 5am to get the dogs fed, throw in laundry, and do some 'me' stuff before I sit down at the computer, so I think this month (barring any crazy complications from the dogs, lol) will be a lot better! Thanks again, and hope you're doing great, too!
So happy to see your video today! I had been missing you! You get so much done! It is just amazing. Your finishes are always beautiful. Sorry to hear Sam and Jazz both have to have surgery! When one of our female Bichons was 2 1/2 years old, she ran down the stairs and slammed into the back of our sofa and ruptured her cruciate. That was 16 years ago now. That surgery is indeed pretty expensive! She ended up having to have a metal plate put in her leg. Bless her heart! She has been gone 2 years now but she was the best little girl! After the surgery, she was leary of jumping up on anything anymore but other than that, she lived a very full life. Best of wishes to you and your furbabies! See you next time.
Yes, that is what the Dr said, it's his cruiciate, or ccl? But yes, like your dog, Sam will have a metal plate in his knee, so now he will be Sam the Bionic Dog 😆 yes, so expensive, but he's worth it 😊
Glad to hear you are enjoying your new job! All your finishes are fabulous, as always. Love the black pumpkin. Fun to have such a different piece! Looking forward to seeing what you do with the additional fabrics. I’m working on a very labor-intensive quilt for my nephew who is due this month! 👶
Oh, congratulations on the new nephew! There are so many beautiful quilters on Instagram I follow, alas, I admire from the sidelines (somehow I did not get the gift of sewing, or baking, LOL). Yes, I really liked how the pumpkin came out (especially for me!) Hope you're doing good!
This is my first time watching your floss tube and I very much enjoyed it. I have been stitching the Owl Forest Autumn Pumpkins and am about a quarter of the way finished. I am really enjoying it and love the animals on it.
Hi Ellen! Thanks for stopping by! :) Yes, I love that pattern and the colors! I'm also working on the New Year's Sampler from them that I need to pick back up again. They're such pretty patterns!
So glad I found your channel, was watching the Contented Stitcher and she mention you !! You are one talented lady and have enabled me to buy a few things !!!!!! Thank you and will be catching up on all your previous flosstubes !! Happy Stitching and Designing Jennifer McMillan
Thanks Jennifer! I love her channel, too...she has enabled me as well, especially her Flosstube where she showed all her works on the walls. I kept pausing and writing down pattern names, LOL!!
I feel your pain about phone shopping. I got a letter saying if I don’t update by January 1 my phone won’t even work to call 911! Having the newest has never been important. As long as it works I’m happy. I would so rather spend that money on quilting or stitching supplies. Love the logo you designed for Fox and Rabbit. I bet it was fun to work with them. They are a hoot.
Hi Vicki! Yes, you have me beat, lol...I can still call 911! Yeah, I'm wouldn't call myself frugal, but I am right there with you, with not having to keep up with new things. I really don't 'want' a new phone, but I'm kind of being forced out of it LOL!! Yes, it was so much fun to work with them...I wish I lived closer, I'd be there everyday, LOL!!
Thanks! I know...poor Sam, hoping 2022 is a better year for him!! They're both good pups, so it's just going to be a matter of keeping them away from each other while they heal (which is no small task, LOL)!! :) Hope you've been doing good, too!
@@LockABeesStitches I meant to add last night that I love your SubRosa pumpkin and the stem addition. I'm looking forward to you setting up a shop in the future. I'll be in line for a cute crow, bee, pumpkin stem, etc! :D
You always do such a great job no matter what you do. Great logo for F&R. I’m still working on smalls. I’m going to get to a bigger chart soon. 🙏 for Jaz and Sam. Can’t wait till next video. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Kathy, and for the good thoughts for the surgery twins! Yeah, I need to get going on my Christmas gifts! And yes, so much fun to work with F&R...love them!!
Hi Coleen, your finishes are just awesome, love the black pumpkin. I’m currently working on a Barbara Ana. I did finish stitching Trick or Treat by La D Da, but haven’t completely finished it. Thanks again for helping me with that. Sending good thoughts on Jaz and Sam’s procedures. Enjoy your videos so much! Thanks for sharing your time with us.
Thanks Terri (and for Sam and Jas)! Yay, so glad you finished the La D Da!! ...my poor Halloween stitching plans didn't go so well, but I did get a couple things done anyway, LOL!
So excited to see a new video. The black pumpkin is absolutely adorable!! I have shores at hawk run hollow on my to do list. Just trying to save up for the NPI silks because I haven’t used them before. Poor puppies. Hope they both bounce back quickly. I may actually do the remember me sal if I can get my act together. I want to stitch something for my sister in remembrance and my dad too. Miss you. Can’t wait to see your new hair redo!! I need one SO bad!!!!!
Hi Keri! I've never used silks to cross stitch either...no real reason, just haven't! That would be nice for your sister and dad...I know it might seem melancholy, but I really like the idea of having a remembrance piece that represents what someone was about. When I first saw Huckleberry Farm, my first thought was of my Umpa, so this sort of just fits! :) And yes...I need a new do bad, too!! Ttyl :)
Your carvings are so adorable. You are so creative. I love your stitching. I am currently working on Dimensions Butterly Profusion. It is a remembrance stitching for my parents. They both passed away in 2016. We call my mother Our Social Butterfly. I try to stitch a little each night.
Oh Jill, that's a sweet connection to your stitching ❤ for me, doing this gives me a tangible representation of memories of loved ones (even ones who are still here, too). So I'm excited to start stitching on the SAL, too!
Hi, I just found you on Instagram and I love your projects. I’m a big Barbara Ana fun and it’s always nice to know that there are more of us out there. I love your video and look forward to watch them all ❤️
Thank you! Did you sign up for the new Barbara Ana Winter mystery SAL (on Creative Poppy)? I just did today...I just like her style a lot, too! Thanks for stopping by to watch :)
Great video it was great catching up with you today and love your ffo’s they look amazing 🤩 and your craving is beautiful 🤩 love seeing all your beautiful projects. I just finished the nightmare before Christmas it was so much fun. I’m working on linen and Threads 2019 free chart I need to try to finish by 11/16 it’s a gift 🎁 for my hubby it’s our 25th anniversary. I’m almost there’s working on the butterflies 🦋. Have a wonderful evening and happy stitching 😊🧵🪡🤗🤩
Good Weds morning, I LOVE that stuffed pumpkin you showed and the Haunted Halloween pattern n frame. I'm now about 2/3 thru The second block of Houses if Hawk Run Hollow. I'm stitching each block separately to be framed. Have signed up for WIPGO 2022, need to set up my stitching rotation for next year and plain get life back under control. Happy stitching!
Thanks Teresa! I love the idea of framing each block separately! I'm glad you mentioned it...I've been thinking about using the WIPGO system next year, too...when I was looking for the Shores pattern, I was thumbing through so many patterns I really want to get to (and need to)! This year I was a little all over the place, LOL!!
Hi, I just found you by listening to Kim Goldman. So interested in how you do your frames and carving. Your pumpkin is so cute. Good luck with your hair.
Thanks Catherine! Kim is so sweet...I don't know her in real life, but she is someone you know you'd be friends with. Her stitching is so amazing and inspirational (she's hard to keep up with, her needle flies)! I love watching her Flosstubes! Yes...the last time I paid to get my hair done, it didn't come out like I wanted, so hopefully today is better!
Hi Coleen, I love your energy! Your carvings are amazing! That pumpkin you made was adorable. I have only watched 2 of your videos as of now but I plan on watching the rest this week. I am currently do the #blacksamplernovember sal with Jacob from Modernfolk Embroidery. Happy stitching🧵
Hi Coleen! What kind of glue do you use when you glue plastic frames back together? Looking forward to that WIP parade! So happy you love your job! Do I have any SALs 🤣🤣🤣. A few, yes 🤗
It's called Plastibond 1500, you can buy it a few places online (just have to be careful not to get it on the frame itself). Yes, I'm weak for the SALs, too, lol!! 😊
Hi Tracy! I wish I would have done that for my nephews when they were little. I think it will be an awesome keepsake for them when they're older (even if as kids they might not think of it, but it will be a great memory of you for them to have)! :)
try 911 stitcher for a video on Halloween patterns. You poor puppies. hope they stay well after this next round of vet visits. I wanted to send something to you that I got on etsy. is there an address to use?
Hi Debby! I responded on FB, but just in case you didn't get it, I sent it again! (My messenger has been acting funny, so I'm going to go get a new phone!) Just let me know if you don't get it! Thanks, I will check out those videos!
I apologize for showing my PDF patterns too close to the camera. I'm blurring each of those sections now.
Congratulations on designing the new logo for Fox and Rabbit. You are so talented
Thanks Wanda! It was so much fun to work with them, and was happy they were happy with the characters! :)

Thanks Jacqueline! I was pretty happy the shape turned out...as I've said, I'm not a whiz at sewing things!!
Geez I love your carving. What a great talent to have. Thanks as always for sharing. And what a treat, you get to have your hair done. Woop!
Thanks Alison! Yes, I'm very excited for a new do, lol...I haven't had it cut since January!
Great to see ya!!! Finding balance can be hard for sure. 🌻🌻🌻
Thanks Janet...I'm totally blaming my imbalance on Ikea's backorders 😆😆 dang pandemic 😉😊
Enjoyed your video!! Thank you! Your stitching is beautiful, you are very creative and your carving skills are amazing!!
