Hey Laura, Congratulations on 6000 subscribers, that is absolutely wonderful, as always I am in awe of all you get stitched in a week, a wish I had a villa somewhere that the sun is shining, this rain is relentless, stay well.
Congratulations on your milestone! That’s amazing! I have an idea for making progress on Villa. Whenever Mo goes to do something pickleball-related, pull out that project and put in 2 strands, or do 15 minutes, or spend half the time he’ll be gone; but pick an amount of stitching and let pickleball be the trigger for when you “have” to work on it. You can still keep it a secret that way and will make more progress. Good luck!
Not surprising at all that you've reached the 6K milestone!! You stitch so many beautiful pieces. And I love your "comforting" voice, too! I must admit that Aston Villa is a team I know nothing about - but your crest will be gorgeous. And the yellow submarine piece is looking good, too. Keep on stitching and smiling!! 😊
Thanks for sharing your wonderful stitching and ideas. I discovered your flosstube earlier this year when Christine of StitchNtheboro talked about your monthly stitching prompts. Since then your videos have become a part of my weekly flosstube viewing. I typically watch on the tv and don’t comment but I wanted to say congratulations on 6000 subscribers and let’s go Aston Villa!!
I love that yellow submarine project Laura! That is probably the most beautiful blue fabric that exists. Looking forward to seeing it progress. Villa. Thank you for sharing with us. Take care.
Great to see you today Laura, you have become my Friday treat. Really love seeing the progress on all your stitching. I currently have four projects on the go, which is a lot for me. I have decided to spend a week on each from Sept to Dec to keep them all moving along. Congratulations on 6k, well deserved. You certainly have become a special part of my stitching journey. Thank you. Take care, best wishes from 🇮🇪
Laura, thank you for hosting the zoom weekend. I was able to join Saturday afternoon and really enjoyed spending time with other stitchers. I also am a lone stitcher so being able to share with people who ‘get it’, was fun. Villa. Hmmm, cheering the team on.
I dream of sitting on a balcony of my villa overlooking the beach doing my favorite stitch! Congratulations on 6000. I look forward to your videos. I am also a blue aida stitcher.
Congrats on reaching 6,000 subscribers! Hope you get your villa pattern finished on time. For the lighthouse, I can see the white, but I can also see your concern...maybe try a little bit of light grey in the next section and see which you like better, because after all, you're the one who will keep seeing the finished piece (so you should be happy with it!).
Hi Laura. I found your channel recently. I believe it was Pam & Steph that recommended your channel. I live in South Carolina, (wish it was in a villa on the beach), but grew up in Ohio. I am married to my childhood sweetheart. We have known each other since the sixth grade. We have been married for 38 years this past June. We have two grown sons, a daughter-in-love, and a three year old grandson ( he lives in Japan ). Besides cross stitching, I also enjoy quilting, crocheting, and knitting. I so enjoy seeing all that you are stitching. I am intrigued by the full coverage pieces. I would love to join a zoom event, but am an introvert and it make me a bit nervous. We shall see. I may surprise myself one day. Looking forward to your next video. Happy Stitching ~Pam in SC
Congratulations on 6k subscribers! I have been watching since the beginning! Always look forward to my Friday with you. Can't wait to see you finish the Aston Villa stitch for MO! Happy stitching!
Congratulations on your 6000 subscribers 🎉 so well deserved. Love stitching along to your videos. Hope you manage to get lots of progress on your Aston Villa anniversary gift 🤞
CONGRATULATIONS on 6,000 subscribers! I always look forward to seeing your videos and your take on the patterns you stitch! I love the Yellow Submarine piece, it's going to look amazing on that fabric. I'm looking forward to hearing about Mo's reaction to the Aston Villa piece.🎉
Congratulations on your 6,000 subscribers. I watch you every week and love all your projects, I also love 18 count. I am actually from Birmingham in the Uk and when I was younger I used to go and watch ASton Villa every week. I now live too far away to go,
I like seeing some of your scrapbook finished stitches in the background. It's a good way to keep appreciating them. I think when I have too many finishes for my villa walls, I'd be happy with a scrapbook of stitching too!
Hello Laura, I have watched you for many years, Congratulations on you subscriber milestone, I’ll will definitely keep my fingers crossed for you and hope you get Mo’s Villa piece completed on time, Love the yellow submarine on the the blue fabric.
Thank you for taking your time every week. I so enjoy your stitching and wish I had more confidence is changing colors. You will get your Aston Villa piece completed.
Congratulations on reaching 6000 subscribers 🎉. I love seeing the variety of projects you stitch, and you have enabled me to start quite a few that I might not have considered stitching otherwise. I am also stitching a villa type project for my husband. He is a Maroons supporter, which is the Queensland team for the State of Origin Rugby competition against the New South Wales Blues.
Congratulations on 6000!! I appreciate you being there for me each week. I don't have any stitchy friends. I wasn't able to join the zoom, had cataract surgery and seeing was not that great. Enjoyed the video!
Another great video. Wow 6K!?! Thats awesome Laura. What a great milesstone. Well deserved. Your videos are always great. I love seeing your progress. Villa
Congratulations on 6000 subscribers! What a milestone!!! A Villa would be enough room to store fabric and charts! I've finally caught up with your flosstubes as well as some others...I've been recuperating from a hip replacement as well as the lung cancer surgery and this summer is finally my time to get caught up! I'm stitching a bit almost every day, not as much as I used to but I'm starting to get back in the swing of things. Working on another ATC for the swap...got one done already. Time marches on. Take care of yourself.
Congratulations on 6000 subscribers! Your projects are coming along wonderfully. I think you'll be able to complete the Villa stitch in time for end of September.
So glad I found you! Your name is what drew me in to watch, I love the beach and I love blue! I live outside of Savannah ga and there aren’t any stitch groups nearby so I get the feeling of being the only one enjoying this craft. Thanks for sharing!
Congratulations on 6K followers! That’s quite an accomplishment! 🎉 The first time I heard you mention Aston Villa, I had to Google what it was. 😄 Your stitching is inspiring! 💕
Congratulations on your subscriber milestone! I enjoy your visits and seeing what you've been up to each week. It's incredible!! From my villa to yours... thanks!
Hi Laura! Congrats on 6K subs. As far as your lighthouse is concerned, something to consider instead of changing the white is doing an outline in a light gray just to give it a little more definition. I have been moving and haven't stitched in 2 weeks but I am re-organizing my floss into a rolling cart that will contain all my DMC threads into one area instead of having them pulled individually for each project and having to hunt all the time for a certain floss, which is difficult to do quietly so as to not disturb Walter when he is sleeping. It's been a real rough couple of months; had a fire in the next door apartment while we were gone grocery shopping and couldn't get in to check on our cats for a long time because of the elevated carbon monoxide levels (luckily they seemed okay at the time). Mom and I were out of the apartment for a day and a half but then dealing with the water that came into my bedroom, closet and bathroom so I could still have Walter on Saturday (the fire was on Monday evening) was horrid. Had to go over each area twice with ammonia and water to get the contaminated fire hose water. They brought in 2 huge commercial HEPA filters and a super heater dehumidifier which were supposed to be run 24/7. As you can imagine, the noise of the machines irritated both my grandson''s ears as well as mine and my moms. Finally the "cleanup" was done (it was a laughable attempt and at least 1 item was broken and they didn't tell us). About that time my only cat, Baby, started acting oddly and soon thereafter crossed the Rainbow Bridge. I firmly believe the stress of the tire was the reason that she didn't make it. Then less than 2 weeks later, we got approved for a new place to live here in Texas. It is about an hour north of where we were and is a home with a fenced in backyard for Walter and my mom's cat to go play in. Our first bird visitor was a male cardinal, so I am believing that my dad approves of the new home. Going back hopefully one last time to the apartment to finish cleaning and empty the fridge. I am so tired! Hopefully September will bring me the energy to stitch for ABCingo. Hope Meg is feeling much, much better. Hope Villa does really well this season and your progress on it continues. I am so looking forward to Karla getting settled in her new place and being able to host Zooms again. Take care and hope you feel like you have made some good progress soon as your toe starts to heal. Dawn in Texas
Love how the lighthouse is coming along, my wife loves lighthouses no matter where we visit on holiday she always checks to see if there is one nearby, my chum who I play golf with is a huge Villa fan, I’m not a followers of football but it doesn’t stop him telling all about the game when they have played, Big congratulations on you subs number 👏👏👏👏
Congratulations on hitting 6,000. Way to go! I have been a long time subscriber. I have stitch some of the same designs. Thank you for your inspiration. I don’t always comment, but know I am watching. Villa
Congrats on reaching 6K subscribers! That's fantastic! Looking forward to your videos every weekend. On the lighthouse, I would just backstitch the white portions with a light grey just to give it a little definition. Love to see what you are stitching. Counting errors are so maddening. I'm sure you'll come up with a good work around so you can continue moving forward. Villa.
Congratulations on 6000 subscribers! You deserve it! It is nice when your team wins. I hope that Aston Villa continues to win. I cannot play pickleball either. My lower back and hips would not move well enough. I too have to get up and move around, but I take my dog on walks around our complex every 2-3 hours; in fact, a neighbor remarked just today that every time she comes outside, she sees Jack and me walking around the courtyard. I see the neurologist this coming Thursday to determine if there will be another shot or if surgery may be needed since we have tried everything else. Good luck with your progress with your hips and your stitching!
Congratulations, Laura! I'm so happy I found your channel. Your videos are always so positive and inspiring. How funny, the type of house I live in is called a villa. 😊
Congratulations on your milestone ❤ Good luck getting your villa piece done! I'm glad I one zoom over the weekend. I'm hoping to make zooms more often.
Congrats on 6,000 subs. Way to go! On the lighthouse, I can see the white. I would do a light to medium grey backstitch. I think that would define it. Villa.
Congratulations on your subscriber milestone! That’s great. 🎉 I always enjoy your update videos. Maybe one day I will be able to join one of your zoom calls. Good luck to the Aston Villa team as well as your Aston Villa piece! Happy stitching and take care of yourself.😊
Congratulations on such a marvelous milestone!! Of course, it come to me as no surprise because you're such an amazing part of the flosstube community! I eagerly click on every single episode you post for my Laura fix! lol. I put Holmes Marple & Poe list last week! I'm not sure how long It'll be before it comes in, though! Hope your toe, hip & back improve pretty quickly!! Villa...get better soon Meg!
Hi Laura, Huge congratulations on your subscriber numbers, I love both of the silver creek designs you are doing, Moonshine and Wings of change, they will be gorgeous, I think you will get your Villa badge finished by the end of September, no problem.
Hi Laura! I hope Megan is feeling much better! Thanks for sharing your beautiful progress! Congrats on 6,000 stitchy/crafty friends! I'm sure Mo will love the Villa piece. I can see the white on the Hello Summer piece but it wasn't really noticeable to me until you mentioned it. Maybe you can outline it in a light gray. I'm going to have to do that for the seagull on Summer at the Shore. Happy Stitching!
Congrats on 6k! I bet hubby is excited to watch Villa today as it’s the start of the Premier League. My husband has been parked in front of the tv all day
Congratulations on 6,000! That is awesome! On the lighthouse I would probably use the gray white to see it better. I love your summer Quaker but I can totally understand the frustration on a piece and the need to set it aside for a while. Villa.
Laura I think I've been following you since you had less than 100 followers. It's been a fun ride (kids graduating and moving on, Shamrock 😢, pickleball injuries, Cinnamon Stars done 🎉). And so many lovely projects. You introduced me to hand dyed fabric - my stash is your fault! But mostly, you've built a positive, inclusive community. Congratulations on this milestone! Its been a joy!
I continue to enjoy your FlossTube videos and soon I will be able to watch them and stitch whenever I want to!! I am an educator and I will be retiring at the end of this school year, after 40 years!!! I really want to visit Greece during retirement. Perhaps I will be lucky enough to stay in a villa while visiting there. It would be very cool!! (Cross stitcher since 1995) 😊❤️🪡🪡🪡
Another wonderful floss tube. Really enjoyed chatting with you last Friday. Now I have another book series (court of thorns &roses) to read. I’ll also be listening to the James Patterson book too. Hope your villa stitching goes smoothly.
I'll be watching out for Villa in the results now! I need to have someone to tell me to get up from my stitching!! Love seeing your projects on those beautiful fabrics. Congrats on 6k followers
Your AVFC patch is coming along well. Your anniversary is important. I think you need to commit to the amount of stitches you need to have this finished by the anniversary - even if it means a little less stitching on other projects. I think it looks great and that your husband will really love it.
Congrats on 6K! I love following your progress on your wips. Such a fun variety of projects to see. I think a different shade for your lighthouse would probably make you happier. It definitely was hard to see on camera. I'd love to stay in a European villa someday for vacation.
Congrats on 6k🎉 I love your summer sampler and sorry your frustrated with it. You have shown us so many ways to change color and change up patterns that what ever you do with this sampler will be gorgeous. Villa🎉
My husband loves to watch premier league football. He grew up in Midlothian, VA and pulls for the Scottish club Hearts of Midlothian. Love seeing your progress on the Aston Villa team crest. Congratulations on 6000 subscribers!❤❤🎉🎉
Nice to see you again Laura. The Aston Villa crest is coming along nicely - fingers crossed for you to get it finished in time for your anniversary. Your other projects are moving along nicely too. I couldn't see the white in the lighthouse - perhaps you could backstitch around it in a light grey? I'm with you on the blue - I'm a big fan of all things blue (maybe because I have similar colouring to you - fair skin, Irish & Scottish roots, brunette hair going grey, and blue eyes). I'm not with you on the early dinner though - I usually work until around 7 or 7:15 so by the time I get home it's 7:30 and my husband has dinner ready for us. He's a keeper! Have a great week!
You absolutely deserve 6,000 subscribers! I’m glad those bags are working for you! I can put an entire floss box in with full coverage projects too. I love it!
Congrats on the milestone! I'm watching this video as I pull the threads needed for the ATC projects. I'll get to stitching on those this weekend. Villa
Congrats on reaching this milestone. I always enjoy your variety of projects. Thanks for always reminding us about SALs, fabric, etc. I'd love a stitching villa in a nice cool location (we'll be hot here in North Texas for a couple more months). Hope to see eye spy again in the future.
Love catching up on your wips! Congrats on your 6000+ subscribers! I wasn't able to join your zooms this past weekend but hope to another time. Go aston villa! I'm a spurs fan but will find it in my heart to pull for villa 😀
I would dinge up the white on the lighthouse....rarely does white really stay white in costal areas like that so it fits. Good luck on the Aston Villa piece...you can do it! Congrats on 6k! I very much look forward to Friday evening cooking with your company! --Meghan from Georgia
I live in London and a few of my friends are Villa supporters as well ….i enjoy rugby more than football….enjoyed your projects and there a few I have to get …have a good weekend….
I’m glad you haven’t given up hope on Summer Quaker, I hope it’ll be something you can fudge your way through. Sorry to hear Megan was down for her birthday, I hope she’s able to do something fun to make up for it. Villa
Congratulations on 6K Laura! 😍🥳 I love every video from you and am always excited to see your progress. Your Villa piece for Mo is such a great anniversary gift 😊 It was great to see you on your zoom 😍 Happy Stitching! ❤️
Congratulations on 6k! I cannot believe summer is almost over (at least we’ll be able to drive down to OC, MD with less traffic and people, we rarely go down during the busy months). I need a villa on a private island - one with access to great mail service so my orders get there quickly 😂 Happy Stitching!
I was so bummed to miss the Zoom! At first we were supposed to go out for our anniversary (fun!) but then I got sick (not fun at all). Just a crummy cold, but it zapped me for almost a week. I hope to join in the next Zoom meetup. I love the fabric for Yellow Submarine - it's perfect! Oh, and for the lighthouse, maybe a light gray floss would show up more? Thanks for keeping me company while I attempt a new craft. Your channel is a happy, peaceful place for me.
I always enjoy seeing the stitching you're working on 😊. I love the thoughtful comments you make on each piece. I'm so happy for you that you've reached 6,000 subscribers! You are one of the kindest people on flosstube and I'm so glad so many people have found you, your warm personality, and your beautiful variety of stitched pieces! Have a great week! Villa
Congrats on 6,000 🎉 You always show such great stitching projects! Pickleball has become so popular and I think I would like to try it but not sure I'm quick enough. Stitching is more my speed 😆 Villa
Love you Gnome Laura, he is coming along lovely, I love your Quaker I think it looks fabulous, and we have a saying over “ a blind man on a galloping house will never see it” which really just means you see it because you are looking for it, but nobody else will ever notice, my sons in law love football but I’m not sure if either of them follow Villa, a question I know must ask lol.
Congratulation on 6k!! 🎉🎉 Always a joy to watch your videos. Can't wait to see your progress on Mary Poppins, I had bought the pattern but yet to start on it. Dreaming of a villa to fill with all my projects
Love your stitching! You always have a nice variety and stitch much of the same things I am working on. I’m going to check my summer quaker. I am about finished with pg 7 and the area you are having trouble with is on the next page. I love the hello summer you are working on. I finished hello spring and want to do the rest of the series. I just saw autumn and it is as pretty as hello summer. I looked at your white stitching on the lighthouse and I couldn’t see the white. Sorry! Summer is on its way out in Ohio. In the 50s at night. Makes for some good stitching weather here at the Villa. I listen to books on tape out on the deck and it makes the stitching time fly by.
Hey Laura, Congratulations on 6000 subscribers, that is absolutely wonderful, as always I am in awe of all you get stitched in a week, a wish I had a villa somewhere that the sun is shining, this rain is relentless, stay well.
Congratulations on 6k subscribers! Well deserved! I have loved following your channel!! 🌻🩷🇨🇦

I love that yellow submarine project Laura! That is probably the most beautiful blue fabric that exists. Looking forward to seeing it progress. Villa. Thank you for sharing with us. Take care.
Great to see you today Laura, you have become my Friday treat. Really love seeing the progress on all your stitching. I currently have four projects on the go, which is a lot for me. I have decided to spend a week on each from Sept to Dec to keep them all moving along. Congratulations on 6k, well deserved. You certainly have become a special part of my stitching journey. Thank you. Take care, best wishes from 🇮🇪
CONGRATS on 6000 as this is hard as a MU fan but good luck villa.

Your stitching is always so beautiful. Hope Aston Villa does well during the season. Can’t wait for your next video.
Villa. Great to see you on zoom last weekend. Happy stitching
I enjoy watching your videos, you keep me company while I stitch. Villa. I am reading 56 days. I enjoy reading James Patterson's books
Love love love that blue fabric you are stitching yellow submarine on, I gravitate towards blues quite often too, Villa.
Congratulations on 6000 subscribers! Your projects are coming along wonderfully. I think you'll be able to complete the Villa stitch in time for end of September.
Love stitching along with your video as always. Villa.
So glad to catch up with you. Congratulations!!! Villa

Great update as always. I enjoy hearing your thoughts on each project you are stitching on. Love the summer quaker! Villa.
Congratulations on your milestone ❤
Good luck getting your villa piece done!
I'm glad I one zoom over the weekend. I'm hoping to make zooms more often.
Congrats on 6,000 subs. Way to go! On the lighthouse, I can see the white. I would do a light to medium grey backstitch. I think that would define it. Villa.
Congratulations on your subscriber milestone! That’s great. 🎉 I always enjoy your update videos. Maybe one day I will be able to join one of your zoom calls. Good luck to the Aston Villa team as well as your Aston Villa piece! Happy stitching and take care of yourself.😊
Congratulations on such a marvelous milestone!! Of course, it come to me as no surprise because you're such an amazing part of the flosstube community! I eagerly click on every single episode you post for my Laura fix! lol. I put Holmes Marple & Poe list last week! I'm not sure how long It'll be before it comes in, though! Hope your toe, hip & back improve pretty quickly!! Villa...get better soon Meg!
Hi Laura, Huge congratulations on your subscriber numbers, I love both of the silver creek designs you are doing, Moonshine and Wings of change, they will be gorgeous, I think you will get your Villa badge finished by the end of September, no problem.
Hi Laura! I hope Megan is feeling much better! Thanks for sharing your beautiful progress! Congrats on 6,000 stitchy/crafty friends! I'm sure Mo will love the Villa piece. I can see the white on the Hello Summer piece but it wasn't really noticeable to me until you mentioned it. Maybe you can outline it in a light gray. I'm going to have to do that for the seagull on Summer at the Shore. Happy Stitching!
Congrats on 6k! I bet hubby is excited to watch Villa today as it’s the start of the Premier League. My husband has been parked in front of the tv all day
Congratulations on 6,000! That is awesome! On the lighthouse I would probably use the gray white to see it better. I love your summer Quaker but I can totally understand the frustration on a piece and the need to set it aside for a while. Villa.
Your shaker looks incredible! Villa and congrats on 6K!
Congratulations on reaching 6000 subscribers! Villa!
Laura I think I've been following you since you had less than 100 followers. It's been a fun ride (kids graduating and moving on, Shamrock 😢, pickleball injuries, Cinnamon Stars done 🎉). And so many lovely projects. You introduced me to hand dyed fabric - my stash is your fault! But mostly, you've built a positive, inclusive community. Congratulations on this milestone! Its been a joy!
I continue to enjoy your FlossTube videos and soon I will be able to watch them and stitch whenever I want to!! I am an educator and I will be retiring at the end of this school year, after 40 years!!! I really want to visit Greece during retirement. Perhaps I will be lucky enough to stay in a villa while visiting there. It would be very cool!! (Cross stitcher since 1995)
😊❤️🪡🪡🪡
Congrats on your milestone. Go Villa here’s to a great season.
So many blues! You are making me want to start Yellow Submarine. Take care my friend. villa
Another wonderful floss tube. Really enjoyed chatting with you last Friday. Now I have another book series (court of thorns &roses) to read. I’ll also be listening to the James Patterson book too. Hope your villa stitching goes smoothly.
It was nice meeting you in the zoom last week. Hope you get the villa piece completed in time.
I'll be watching out for Villa in the results now! I need to have someone to tell me to get up from my stitching!! Love seeing your projects on those beautiful fabrics. Congrats on 6k followers
Your AVFC patch is coming along well. Your anniversary is important. I think you need to commit to the amount of stitches you need to have this finished by the anniversary - even if it means a little less stitching on other projects. I think it looks great and that your husband will really love it.
Congrats on 6K! I love following your progress on your wips. Such a fun variety of projects to see. I think a different shade for your lighthouse would probably make you happier. It definitely was hard to see on camera. I'd love to stay in a European villa someday for vacation.
Love the stitching. Thank you for the Zoom week end it was fun. I am a 2 strand stitchers as well. I like the coverage it gives. Villa
Congrats on 6k🎉 I love your summer sampler and sorry your frustrated with it. You have shown us so many ways to change color and change up patterns that what ever you do with this sampler will be gorgeous. Villa🎉
Yay-The November gnome is back! It's been a while! And summer quaker- glad you've taken it out of time out : )
My husband loves to watch premier league football. He grew up in Midlothian, VA and pulls for the Scottish club Hearts of Midlothian. Love seeing your progress on the Aston Villa team crest. Congratulations on 6000 subscribers!❤❤🎉🎉
Nice to see you again Laura. The Aston Villa crest is coming along nicely - fingers crossed for you to get it finished in time for your anniversary. Your other projects are moving along nicely too. I couldn't see the white in the lighthouse - perhaps you could backstitch around it in a light grey? I'm with you on the blue - I'm a big fan of all things blue (maybe because I have similar colouring to you - fair skin, Irish & Scottish roots, brunette hair going grey, and blue eyes). I'm not with you on the early dinner though - I usually work until around 7 or 7:15 so by the time I get home it's 7:30 and my husband has dinner ready for us. He's a keeper! Have a great week!
Congratulations on the subscribers!! Enjoy your videos and content so much!! Villa
You absolutely deserve 6,000 subscribers!
I’m glad those bags are working for you! I can put an entire floss box in with full coverage projects too. I love it!
Congrats on the milestone! I'm watching this video as I pull the threads needed for the ATC projects. I'll get to stitching on those this weekend. Villa
Congrats on reaching this milestone. I always enjoy your variety of projects. Thanks for always reminding us about SALs, fabric, etc. I'd love a stitching villa in a nice cool location (we'll be hot here in North Texas for a couple more months). Hope to see eye spy again in the future.
Love catching up on your wips! Congrats on your 6000+ subscribers! I wasn't able to join your zooms this past weekend but hope to another time. Go aston villa! I'm a spurs fan but will find it in my heart to pull for villa 😀
I would dinge up the white on the lighthouse....rarely does white really stay white in costal areas like that so it fits. Good luck on the Aston Villa piece...you can do it! Congrats on 6k! I very much look forward to Friday evening cooking with your company! --Meghan from Georgia
I live in London and a few of my friends are Villa supporters as well ….i enjoy rugby more than football….enjoyed your projects and there a few I have to get …have a good weekend….
Nice progress on your WIPS. Congratulations on a subscription milestone. Villa.
I’m glad you haven’t given up hope on Summer Quaker, I hope it’ll be something you can fudge your way through. Sorry to hear Megan was down for her birthday, I hope she’s able to do something fun to make up for it. Villa
Love seeing your progress. Congrats on 6000 - that’s awesome. Can’t wait to see the villa project progress. ❤❤
Oh man, you shared those gnomes and I ran over to etsy to find them! Glad to check in with you again! Villa.
Congratulations on 6K Laura! 😍🥳 I love every video from you and am always excited to see your progress. Your Villa piece for Mo is such a great anniversary gift 😊
It was great to see you on your zoom 😍 Happy Stitching! ❤️
Congratulations on 6k! I cannot believe summer is almost over (at least we’ll be able to drive down to OC, MD with less traffic and people, we rarely go down during the busy months). I need a villa on a private island - one with access to great mail service so my orders get there quickly 😂 Happy Stitching!
I was so bummed to miss the Zoom! At first we were supposed to go out for our anniversary (fun!) but then I got sick (not fun at all). Just a crummy cold, but it zapped me for almost a week. I hope to join in the next Zoom meetup. I love the fabric for Yellow Submarine - it's perfect! Oh, and for the lighthouse, maybe a light gray floss would show up more? Thanks for keeping me company while I attempt a new craft. Your channel is a happy, peaceful place for me.
I always enjoy seeing the stitching you're working on 😊. I love the thoughtful comments you make on each piece. I'm so happy for you that you've reached 6,000 subscribers! You are one of the kindest people on flosstube and I'm so glad so many people have found you, your warm personality, and your beautiful variety of stitched pieces! Have a great week! Villa
Congrats on 6,000 🎉 You always show such great stitching projects! Pickleball has become so popular and I think I would like to try it but not sure I'm quick enough. Stitching is more my speed 😆 Villa
For the lighthouse I would backstitch along the edges in the black color used in the top of it. ❤ Villa
Love you Gnome Laura, he is coming along lovely, I love your Quaker I think it looks fabulous, and we have a saying over “ a blind man on a galloping house will never see it” which really just means you see it because you are looking for it, but nobody else will ever notice, my sons in law love football but I’m not sure if either of them follow Villa, a question I know must ask lol.
Congratulation on 6k!! 🎉🎉
Always a joy to watch your videos.
Can't wait to see your progress on Mary Poppins, I had bought the pattern but yet to start on it.
Dreaming of a villa to fill with all my projects
Congratulations for your 6K susbcribers. I wish also i have a villa. Love all your stitches wips starts.
Love your stitching! You always have a nice variety and stitch much of the same things I am working on. I’m going to check my summer quaker. I am about finished with pg 7 and the area you are having trouble with is on the next page. I love the hello summer you are working on. I finished hello spring and want to do the rest of the series. I just saw autumn and it is as pretty as hello summer. I looked at your white stitching on the lighthouse and I couldn’t see the white. Sorry!
Summer is on its way out in Ohio. In the 50s at night. Makes for some good stitching weather here at the Villa. I listen to books on tape out on the deck and it makes the stitching time fly by.
