Great projects other than stitching. You found some fabulous treasures. Glad you rescued them. But you have to wonder why the family didn't keep them & cherish them. Marilyn

Great video. I did Prairie schooler santas for each dog we’ve had and I put the year on the front, just a suggestion for the Santas that have a meaning. have a great week.

Thank you for another wonderful floss tube. I would love to see how you knit your socks. I tried knitting socks years ago and didn’t have much success.

Loved your video! Beautiful rescued pieces!

Both Georgiana and Ann would be great choices to stitch for Sampler September and Black Sampler November. They are beautiful together. I think the Potoky M1 in gray would be my choice because of the storage option and I could leave it out to display a piece or be ready to stitch. Thank you Nicola!

Lovely to see you with all those wonderful stitching ladies at a stitching retreat. Such fun. A pear makes a lovely note to put in a kit. Blessings,congratulations and happy stitching,with love and friendship.

Those Etsy treasures are amazing! I love how you presented them. . . I was watching like a little kid at Christmas, and you were getting excited about them all over again! Thank you for rescuing them and delightfully sharing them with us. Love all that you share. I quilt and knit as well. Thank you for the inspiration.

Thank you for a wonderful video. You are a very busy lady, I wish I had half of your energy. God bless you. ❤

Hi Shellie - I have to say I was very emotional when you showed the finished pieces you found on Etsy. The basket with pin cushion and needlebook are not my designs but oh, so lovely. The sewing roll lined in blue silk was my piece featured on the cover of Sampler & Antique Needlework 2002. I designed ‘House on the Hill’ and first taught this set in Williamsburg. Everyone in class even coffee dyed their own piece of linen. I love writing a little poem for my pieces so ‘House on the Hill’ has one as well as the ‘Sailor’s Huswif’. I designed the ‘Sailor’s Huswif’ and also first taught it in Williamsburg. The next year I designed and taught the ‘Ditty Box’ with pocket and accessories for the Sailor’s Huswif. After introducing these designs in Williamsburg, I then taught them many more times at seminars and guilds. My designs were only available for my classes. Ann McLaughlin did such extraordinary stitching and finishing. I am so happy that you will love and cherish her work. Thank you for sharing. With love, Merry Cox

In your quilting section, what is the name of the fabric line for the center you used? I go to L&L often in Madison IN and would like to pick up a yard of it. Love everything you show☺

The Ann McLaughlin pieces are stunning! Absolutely stunning! I'm so glad you found them! Love your Prairie Schooler Santas on perforated paper!

Your basket and pieces aren't Merry Cox, it was a pattern by Leslie Rudnicki. All very beautiful. Thanks for rescuing!

This is my first time here I will be back love your channel

I literally had to stop your video when you showed the pincushion that says Bily Clocks on it! It must have come from the Bily Clocks museum not far from me in Iowa. The handcarved clocks in the museum are fabulous. I wish you could see them in person - you would really appreciate the craftsmanship. The Bily Clocks Museum is located in Spillville, Iowa. The museum contains clocks that were made by hand from the years 1913 to 1958. The clocks were made by Frank and Joseph Bily, together known as the Bily brothers. The clocks include the American Pioneer Clock, a version of the World's Smallest Church, and the Apostles Parade Clock. Frank and Joseph Bily were born in the late 19th century in Spillville, Iowa. They went on to become farmers as well as carpenters. They took up clockmaking as their hobby, carving and creating complex, finely detailed works of art out of wood. The Bily brothers were originally going to burn their creations when they died, but they later donated their collection to the city of Spillville. The Czech composer Antonín Dvořák spent the summer of 1893 in the building, which is where he completed his Symphony No. 9 in E minor, "From the New World".

OMGEEE those baskets were too much!! I need to make my own! Thanks for sharing your treasures 💙

When are you and Kari going to teach how to make socks?

I’m so glad you said your wheel was squealing because l keep looking at my dog and asking him what’s wrong. Lol!!

Loved your video. You are so lucky to have grabbed that great stash on Etsy.

Baskets and stitching are beautiful hard to believe they would not keep a love ones work

I have to tell you, when you stated that your wheel was squeaky, I laughed so hard. I was watching you on my deck while I was stitching. I was also feeding my chipmunks and squirrels. I wear hearing aides and I was getting angry because I thought our neighborhood pair of hawks were screeching because they wanted to get our chippies. When you shared your wheel was squeaky, I took out one hearing aide and that is what the noise was. It was just too funny! Thank you so much for your wonderful channel and stitch on.

Thanks for the sock pattern.

Shellie, your Ann McLaughlin cross-stitch creations are phenomenal. I thought of the word "synchronicity," as you shared them. You were meant to be their new owner due to how the timing of you finding them worked out. I'm happy for you! :-D

Awesome flosstube tube video! I’m so happy that you rescued the cross stitch treasures from Etsy. You expressed such emotion for giving these beauties a new home where they’ll be treasured! Almost made me cry too! We all joke about our kids not wanting our cross stitch and have instructed all our cross stitch friends to go to our houses immediately when we pass and take our stuff so that it is never seen at a yard sale or resale shop. God bless you, Shelly!!! ❤️

Enjoy your treasures

Might have to give paper a try I did once and wasn’t sure I like it

The baskets and stitching you were so fortunate to happen upon are incredible!!!! I love RESCUING craft projects and items that I’ve seen at thrift and goodwill stores. I love watching your videos.

Beautiful stitching

Hi Shelley, always love your videos. Wow, what cool finds, thanks for sharing. Ok, dumb question, I never heard of cross stitching on perforated paper. Any help how to do that? Doesn't it tear easy? Probably can't put on a hoop so it's just hand held? Maybe there's RUclips videos on it. I loved how you did the Prairie Schooler like that. I mite like to try. I'm assuming you can purchase the paper at craft stores? I love tins too,they're pretty neat. Thank you 😁💙

What year is the Prairie Schooler Santa with flag you shared this day?

I can't think of a more beautiful place or person for those Etsy treasures to be housed within! Each one was truly exquisite!

So beautiful hand stitching by Ann . You have a few treasures pieces. So glad your back. Wow lucky find and love seeing these vintage piece. Know you’ll treasure it all

Shelly thank you for sharing all of that goodness and I am glad you were able to get a lot of her stitching. I have a question Holly talked about your sock heel do you have a tutorial for it?

Could u tell me what size the perforated paper is that u did the prairie schooler on. Maybe I said but I missed it. Want to try it.

Love the Santa’s. New stitcher here. What is perforated paper and where do you get it?

The one on the basket is by Hillside Samplings and is The sampler sewing basket.

absolutely beautiful pieces, always looking for your VDO love your HAul.

I love watching your videos. You always have interesting information and treasures. I hope one day I am able to save a stitchy treasure. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and all your stitchy happiness.

Those stitched pieces are Beyond amazing!!! I know she’d be proud to have her needlework shown and gushed over!! It definitely went to the right Home!!

Thank you for sharing treasures and projects. ❤❤

The basket is by Hillside Samplings. I have made it as well, but yours is much nicer, as the stitcher added some of her own touches.

Thanks for the great information as always. Your Merry Cox items are a lucky find. I have been searching since I heard she was going to retire. I wish I had the opportunity to attend one of her workshops. Such treasures, thanks for sharing them.

Hi I love watching you channel you bring so much joy and your spirit is so comforting. I am knitting my 1st pair of socks like you I like the ankle socks too. I was wondering where I could find the heel tutorial for the heel on the socks you did. I look for I thought you said Shelly heel? But a point in the right direction would be helpful as I am getting close to start my heel. Thanks can wait till you next video.

It’s like Christmas morning watching your video, I’m having such fun seeing you reveal all the beautiful pieces that you have found. I wonder if anyone will recognise these projects & share theirs if they too attended the same workshops. Thank you 🙂

What a wonderful episode! It was meant for you to find and purchase the beautiful heirlooms that you found. You appreciate and will treasure them! Love to you!

You are one busy lady. I get tired just listening to all you do. The highlight of this video is your Etsy fined. It was just meant to be that you would find all those treasures. I’m so happy that they have found a good home where each piece will be appreciated and taken care of. SM’s work is amazing. Enjoy!

Love spending time stitching and watching your videos, always full of lots of inspiration, tips and beautiful needlework!! 😍 Can't wait to see your finished quilts! Happy stitching!!

Enjoyed your video … thanks for sharing your beautiful pieces in your haul and your stitching … 😊❤ Dena

Thanks again Shellie. Love everything you do! What a great find on Etsy! Love them!

Can you please share your pattern for your heel when knitting your socks? I love to knit socks but have difficulty with the heel. I am not an accomplished knitter. I have knit about a half dozen pairs but still am learning. Your knitting project looks so nice. Love watching your videos!
