What would you like to learn about it? What are your struggles with it even with the videos?

Aww thanks so much! I’ve been trying to work on the Christmas village the last couple days. Hopefully I can share decent progress! Thank you for watching and commenting!

It was so great to meet you too! Hopefully we’ll run into each other again soon! 💛

Doo iiitttt! I honestly think after spending so much time slow stitching cross stitch that it feels like I can make quick progress with english paper piecing now 😂 I’m really enjoying playing with my quilt projects again and will share some on my next video. 😀 Thank you so much for watching!

Aww, yay! I’m glad you enjoyed my projects! ☺️ Thank you for watching!

Aww, thank you so much for your comment and for watching!

@@clotheslinecraftscaroline2446 oh man, I’m so sorry to hear you suffer from chronic disease too! I’m so thankful my migraine related fatigue has gotten better lately, but filming/editing put me down for two days afterwards. Yes, flosstube has given me a feeling of spending time “with” people since I’ve pretty much been home the last year. I haven’t seen the 310 stitcher, but I’ll check them out! Thank you so much for your kind words and for watching my first flosstube!

How had I not heard the term spoonie yet?! When my mom told me I looked completely unphased in my flosstube, I literally told her “yea but I used all my spoons to film and edit” and she witnessed how drained I was the following day hah we make do though, right? It’s our normal and we still have a need to thrive and make connections. Thank you for watching my first flosstube!

Hehe I figured if I placed the challenge someone could find it! It’s about the same price with shipping that I originally payed on Amazon - it somehow escaped inflation! Thank you for watching my first flosstube!

Aww, thank you!! I’ll be honest I would squirrel every time I came to respond to you and because it would remind me to look up a different migraine med I had been meaning to research 😅 sorry! I’m so sorry to hear you’re suffering too! I’m finally in my major quilt kick and wanting to start all my projects haha honestly putting my patterns and fabrics into my Notion quilt planner was the thing that really energized me. Thank you so much for watching!

Hi! 👋 Dooo iittt!!!! I figured if someone left a comment in Dutch or another language that good ol’ Google will help me out 😆 You should watch Stitching Colors if you’re looking for another Dutch (but actually in Netherlands) stitcher. I hope you film a flosstube, and thank you for watching my first! ❤️

@@PiecedPineapple thank you, for the encouragement

Yay! Welcome to quilters anonymous! 😂 Migraine is the worst! I’m so sorry you have suffered from it too. Thank you so much for your prayers and for watching!

Aww, yay! I think I’ll add quilts on my next video ❤️ Thank you so much for watching!

Aww, thanks! I think I’m just going to press to get the really bad creases out of the cottons for storage, but honestly wouldn’t be able to keep up with ironing for every video 😄 Congratulations on your longarm! What kind did you get? My goal for 2025 is to start learning/practicing hand guided custom quilting (hopefully graffiti quilting too!). Thank you so much for watching, and I’ll share some quilting next time too!

Hi! 👋 I haven’t been to Summerville, just through it 😂 are you going to any local retreats this year? Thank you for watching!

Aww, thank you! I love the Mad Hatter pattern - it’s on my wish list! I love the newest Bella pattern too 😍 I’ve seen a lot of Autumnal and Halloween patterns lately that I really really want to start 🤣 Do you have a favorite? Thank you so much for watching!

@@PiecedPineapple I love Raven 🐦‍⬛ Queen but that is a Mirabillia! I don’t have a favorite Bella. They are all beautiful but I am eyeing Olivia The Forest 🧙‍♀️ Witch.

Hi!! Thanks for subscribing! So glad to meet another cross-stitching quilter! Plus you’re a cruiser! 🙌 My hubby and I recently went down a wormhole researching cruises from Vancouver to Seward - off course the dream trips we were looking at were way out of budget haha I spent a lot of time in Seattle for work, but never made it up to Canada. I’m definitely going to check out your flosstube and other videos! Thanks for watching!

Ooh! Thank you for the tip! I switched the order of stitching to be silks, DMC, then kreinik in that area in hopes of minimizing drag, but for some reason I didn’t think about sizing up the needle for the silks. I’m definitely going to give it a try. ❤ Thank you so much for your comment and for watching my first flosstube!

Oh, yay! I’m glad people are interested in quilting too. I’m going to have to think about how to share some of my larger ones 😂 Thank you so much for your comment and for watching!

You can do it! Just start where you are and you can improve in the future (and see history of your growth). My fears were in not having the right equipment or not enough consistent content. I just used my phone and simple free editing on my iPad. The hardest part was trying to get good natural light without major glare on my glasses 😂. I hope you’ll give it a shot and thank you so much for watching my first flosstube!

Aww, yay! I’m glad you liked it! I find it so hard to respark my quilting mojo. It was actually through filling out my Notion quilting planner that I remembered all of the patterns and fabrics I had that sparked joy and got me sewing again. 😊 Plus I realized how important it is to keep notes on threads, stitch types, etc as I look to pick up 6 yr old WIPs 😂 Thank you so much for watching and I hope you get the quilting bug back soon!

Aww, thank you! I also love watching other crafts people work on that I don’t do myself - it is still inspirational. Thank you so much for your input and for watching!

Aw, thank you so much! ❤

I’m so sorry you suffer from MD! Thank you for the tip, I’ll definitely look into it. Thank you so much for watching!

It was so worth the splurge! Plus we considered it our 9 year delayed honeymoon 😂. Thank you for watching!

I love how accessible cross stitch is! Sadly my first project as an adult had no directions - perhaps I should have started with a kit like a normal person 😂 I love all the tips and tricks for improving the look of my stitching that I’ve learned through Flosstube. I’m sure I would have learned them from my grandmother if she were still alive. My favorite tips that I’ve learned were stopping threads without burying tails and starting and stopping without flipping my work. ❤ Thank you so much for watching!

Wait...how do you finish a thread without running it under stitches? I need to know all your tips now!

Hi! It’s Maybelline Super Stay Ink Crayon in Stay Exceptional 25 - but I prefer the warmer shade of Work For It 140 (that’s my go to in my purse). It stays creamy and stays put for a really long time! 🙌 Thank you for watching!

@@PiecedPineapple amazing thanks so much for replying I look forward to your next video 💖

How cool! What fabric are you using and how are you finishing them? Thank you so much for watching!

Hi! Thank you so much for watching!

Aww, thank you! I’m so sorry to hear your friend suffers too - it’s miserable! The Botox has helped lessen the muscular and tension pain for me, i just wish it helped with my vestibular symptoms! An infusion treatment was approved in the US a few years ago, and has been a game changer for many. I’m hopeful it helps more in future treatments. The struggle I have with cross stitch when it gets bad is mostly my eyes not being able to focus properly on linen or evenweave threads, so I’m adding Aida back in for my new projects. I need to check out some stamped kits though! Thank you so much for watching!

Hi Kathleen! 👋 Wasn’t the cruise amazing?! Are you going next year? I’ve had intentions to start my flosstube for years, so glad I finally did! Thank you for watching!

Phew! Thank you for the encouragement not to worry about ironing. I’ll probably just press the ones with bad creases for storage purposes. Thank you so much for watching and your encouragement!

Aww, yay! Thank you so much for watching!

Yes - I can definitely do that! I'm actually working on a template to release for download in the somewhat near future - definitely in the early stages since I know some folks like to track more details than I do. Thank you so much for the idea to share my setup and thank you so much for watching!

Yay! I’m so glad it was recommended to you! I really needed that encouragement on the big moon and its impact. I remember being so in awe when stitchers started incorporating it and I’m just being lazy now haha I’m so glad you like my fireplace color! I really wish I had the natural brick the house was built it (it’s a pretty peachy blend of colors), but a flipper painted the fireplace white (and everything else grey, ugh!). Our home is a 60’s rambler ranch, so I’m trying to slowly bring out some midcentury modern vibes in this family room. The fireplace color was shocking at first, but we absolutely love the impact! Thank you so much for watching!

I’m sorry to hear you suffer as well! I’m in the uphill phase right now before the Botox treatments (which helps the physical pain in my neck and forehead) and the vyepti infusion (which lessens the daily pain and vertigo for the first few weeks after) later this month. I’ll gladly take those couple weeks of light daily symptoms though! It took a long time to get through insurance hoops so it’s only my third infusion coming up. Fingers crossed for longer relief this time and being able to drive again! Thank you so much for watching, I really appreciate it!

I’m so sorry to hear your daughter suffers with chronic migraine too! I hope she finds a treatment plan that helps soon - it’s miserable! Thank you so much for watching!

Thank you so much! It's been my go-to color for the last 20ish years (although I really miss my sapphire and purple hair too). Phew! I really only iron (well, press) my quilting. I'll probably only iron the really creased ones to help them out and then that's it hehe Thank you so much for watching!

Thank you so much! And thank you for being an “old timer”! Haha I wish I would have started sooner, but at least I’ve started now! It’s wild to think how little stitching content there was 10 years ago, only to see how large the community is now. I’m so grateful for our flosstube community! ❤ Thank you again for watching!

Oh my goodness - I'm going to go check it out! Thank you for the tip!!

Thank you so much for watching my first flosstube! I very easily get bored if I’m stitching only on one style so variety is necessary 😂 I think the ability to switch between DMC, variegated silks, and Kreinik has kept me motivated/ addicted with my Enchantress of the Abyss. We had our wedding at a tiki weekender event called Tiki Oasis in San Diego, CA. Think mid-century Americana movement inspired by Polynesian, Melanesian, and Micronesian cultures - or Disney’s Tiki Room if the previous description isn’t helpful hehe 🦜🍹🌺🗿🏝️ We held it on the opening day where they have the opening night party at the historic Bali Hai. It was a budget wedding so we maximized it with the landscape of the hotel atrium (where the ceremony was) and the reception at a city park on Mission Bay, with the after party at Bali Hai and the start of the actual event. My husband and I used to volunteer at the event every year so many of our friends from across the country were already there. Probably more info than you bargained for - sorry! 😂 Thanks again for watching!

@@StitchingWithTheBirds I feel your pain with killing plants - both of the plants visible there are excellent faux plants!!! 😂 I’ve managed to keep a fiddle leaf alive inside for 1.5 years, but other than that I can’t keep plants alive indoors to save my life and couldn’t justify the cost of replacing them. The designer in me is very picky about my faux plants though. The snake plant is from World Market and the string of pearls is from Home Goods (West Room and CB2 had some even better ones). I’m so sad to hear you were going to be on the cruise with us! I definitely recommend signing up for another of Jean’s cruises and searching out a roommate. It was GREAT being with my husband, but I had honestly anticipated going alone at first to save costs but hubby surprised me and said he wanted to go. So sorry to hear about your BPPV! I see my neurologist next week for the next plan of attack and specifically addressing vertigo. 🤞

Hi! I’m going to go watch your flosstube now! I love Modern Folk Embroidery designs! I’m a bit intimidated by them though for some reason. There are a couple winter designs that I’m on the fence about getting - especially O Tidings of Comfort and Joy. I’m so sorry to hear you suffer from migraine too! Quilting/piecing is a bit more challenging during a medium attack, especially when vertigo kicks in and I need to switch between the machine, pressing and trimming, but I can chain piece! If I’m having a medium-bad attack, I tend to cross stitch instead with flosstube playing. Thank you for watching my first flosstube! ❤

I’m so glad I finally filmed and could contribute to the community. That’s great that you were able to narrow down your migraine triggers! I have an inkling mine might be related to barometric pressure changes, and sadly there are many pressure swings here. It’s been interesting testing out and tracking possible triggers, but keep coming up short. I’m staying positive we’ll find a treatment plan that helps though! Until then, I’ll just keep stitching! Hehe Thank you for watching!

Oh my goodness, thank you so much! My mom told me her mom was an avid cross stitcher, which is probably where my love for it comes from. I imagine she would have taught if she hadn’t passed when I was young. It is such an amazing craft with such diversity in it! I look forward to sharing more! Thank you for watching!
