Have you ever been asked “if you could sit and talk with anyone, who would it be?” Well Carol, hands down it would be you. To spend an afternoon talking with and learning from you, would be a dream come true. Your talent and your knowledge just blow me away.
Carol - You are not my one and only, but you were my first and you and Mike are definitely my favorite. Your primitive style and beautiful stitching and finishing, your expertise and suggestions combined with your banter make for a video I always look forward to. And I think you should make YOUR videos just as long or as short as YOU want then to be!!!!!
Your video guy and you “100 years ago,” wow! Your hair! So pretty! Mr tall and handsome. I just love your video visits. And the editing is superb. 🎉❤ Happy stitching!
All your pieces are beautiful, but the Scarlet Letter with the gigantic tree is stunning. I love the multiple colors. And can I say , that blue shirt is your color. 😊 Have a wonderful trip.
Hi Carol! I read a couple of comments and I agree with these ladies…don’t sell yourself short! I would love to meet and sit with you and just chat and pick your brain about cross stitching and quilting! And I love the interaction between you and your husband! He’s so sweet! Also so tall! 😅Lol! Love seeing all your stitching and WIPS and finished projects and what you wanna stitch! Happy travels with your sister and happy stitching!
Really enjoy your videos! The samplers, smalls, upcoming starts, wip’s…I like them all! You mentioned at the start of the video about printing free charts & kitting them as gifts is a great idea. Most look small and would be a quick stitch & memory of the event. This patriotic stitching season will be fun! Have fun with your sister.
I love watching FlossTube… I don’t have a local Needlework Shop so I enjoy seeing what is out there… I feel like I have a whole new set of friends…I can’t believe how CCS has changed over the years… I’m an old long time stitcher!!😊
Carol, I will forever watch your videos, no matter if too short or long. Your content is so inspiring. Always enjoy Prof. Mike’s input. His video editing is fabulous! You two are a hoot together!
Love the dress you were wearing in your "youth" picture, and what a handsome couple yesterday and today. Welcome to Wisconsin in a few weeks, we are very green and early flowers/trees are in bloom. Moral Mushrooms are just coming on, oh so good fried in Wisconsin butter. I am just west of Spring Green at the Mushroom Capital - Muscoda. Love all your stitching and love your husband's input on your videos. Have a safe trip on your vacation.
Carol I love your choices I always have to take screenshots of the patterns you are working on or going to work on so I can go purchase them. I always feel inspired and just want to get to stitching! You and your hubby are so funny also! ❤
Oh..miss carol...I absolutely love u an ur stitching an videos...I have the same taste in decor/ stitchy style as u ,so I'm always writing down ur projects name ECT so I can do them tooo.. Love the video...I watch all of ur videos over an over... ♥️✝️♥️
Oh thank you so much!!! That’s a lot of Carol to watch over and over but I get it, there are some shows I watch reruns and enjoy just as much as when I first watched!
Wowza, some more beautiful Samplers and love all of your patriotic stitches, my head is still spinning, so many to do and all just so beautiful. I learn so much from you, wish I could sit and stitch with you!
🙏to your friend Karen. Carol you always make my Sundays! I am always in awwe of your stitching finished and not finished. When I grow up I want to stitch just like you😍
Always love seeing your work but picture was an added bonus. My husband and I have been married 54 years and brought back memories of being young and in love.
Carol, you inspire me so much. You were one of the first youtube videos i watched and look forward to your new videos with great anticipation. We stitch similar things so, you also enable me, but happily.
I love so much of what you stitch and even have some of the patterns and a few that I've finished as well!!!! Keep all the "whatever" parades going, I love them. I have finally convinced myself that any Plum Street is going to take much longer than I think - I love every one of them but for me they just aren't quick stitches!
You know the saying, Carol "Sharing is caring". When I was going to my local EGA meetings, one.of most fun things was everyone.looking and discussing each other's stitching. I love seeing ALL of it.😊
Hello from NC Carol…I agree with the little bird! Always fun! Have to tell you, thank you and your husband for sharing all your beautiful pieces with us. A hot cup of tea and an afternoon with Carol…thank you for the inspiration Carol. For calm when the world makes no sense.
I look forward to whatever you have to show each video - and you and your husband are hilarious together. (You by yourself are quite amusing, also!) Thanks for the video and I know it is a lot of work to get it all together.
Thank you for another wonderful video. Your stitching is amazing. I loved seeing your picture from a hundred years ago. What a good looking couple you two are. My best to Mr. Saltbox. Have a great week and happy stitching. Oh, I don't think making a working copy from your friend's chart is wrong since you both purchased the pattern. I say go for it.
Loved this video . I really enjoy seeing the progress on your samplers . - Yes , it was me that finished the “ One Nation “. I totally enjoyed that stitch . I enjoy your videos whether they be long or short . 😊 We stitch a lot of the same things and as you pulled things out I thought “ Oh , I need to start that or I need to finish that !” Thanks for a lovely Floss Tube . Blessings - Lady Huzzah ( Lisa Duffin) ❤
you are my favorite ... straight forward, clear, honest, and clearly you love our country! Thank you! You are amazing! Please introduce us to your beautiful dog one day!!
I laugh our first house had red wallpaper with gold eagles in kitchen it was 1971 and I could not wait to tear that off!! You always inspire me with your stitching and quilts
Love the photograph of your younger years. We all need to remember what we once looked like. I’ve not been a sampler stitcher as borders seem to bore me but I’m finding myself falling in love with them. I’m going to start with some Plum Street & Brenda Gervis. I need more stash-right! Ha!!
Really enjoyed Carol..& those 4 samplers you want to finish this year are fabulous so gorgeous ❣️ enjoy your smalls I usually work on mine first thing in morning easy to pick up and put in a few stitches in a hour or so .Tammy Black does a fantastic club first club I ever joined and she has other great sampler designs as well😘 loved seeing your photos you two are a great looking couple & certainly aged well💞 take good care see ya around the block._LaNelle
Love each and every episode you post. I am one of those people without a LNS so flosstube is a great resource for me. Makes me feel like I belong to a community also,
Wow, you and Mr Saltbox in your younger days! (whistling!) He's very tall! I'm starting a couple patriotic pieces for Maynia. I don't have enough to display. I think an hour of listening to you talk about and show your stitching works for me👍🏽😁
YES for longer videos!!! Oh you enabler…last night I finished Liberty-1776 that you showed on your last video. It’s so beautiful ♥️. I have stitched ‘Bloom’ that is behind you (thanks to you showing it last year 😬). NOW…I have to stitch the 1776 pillow (that I just found & printed) from Samplers and Santa’s. I just finished Summer and Christmas at Holly Berry Farm this past couple of months. Oh yes & I’ve done all the beggars, all the Hello Summer seasons etc lol Do you feel like I’m a stalker? 😆 I just love me some Carol (& Mr Saltbox) 💞 OH the old picture of you two ♥️♥️♥️
I love watching and listening to you Carol and your projects are so beautiful to see. Btw stitching and all things associated are definitely a disease but one I happily suffer 😂
Thank you Carol for sharing you stitches. Without you I would not know about Blackbird Designs. I have been collecting them since Covid. I have also been shopping the OOP Blackbird Charts. And maybe one day I will have as many charts as you😂
Thank you (and your very tall hubs😳😎) for making these videos, sharing your wips and finishes and your EXCELLENT stash with us! 😊💖. Guess you don’t realize it, but you ARE an excellent stitcher to learn from, to admire your work on your walls☺️, and to see what the designers were doing years ago - again, your stash is exceptional - most especially all your KITTED projects!👏🏻👏🏻😊💖. Have a great couple of weeks!
Jane Atkinson is so spectacular, Carol!!! Your BBB Berry Baskets are beautiful! Love your framed patriotic pieces!! It's such fun seeing your 'wanna stitch' pieces. I so enjoy the banter back and forth with Mr. Saltbox! As always, Carol, it is such a joy to visit with you. Thanks so much and happy stitching.
It is true. The sharing is wonderful, whether or not you have an LNS. Floss tubes are motivating. Yours has humor and soooo many beautiful pieces. And you’re also a mirror for us to look in! “Why haven’t I completed this? Why haven’t I started this? I need to get this done!” I just love watching you. Thank you for sharing. ❤
Once again you outdid yourself! I feel like I've known you forever. ALWAYS love seeing your progress on the samplers! Thanks too to Mr Saltbox for all the help with these videos. The longer the video the better from you! Keep them coming.
Thanks for an Awesome flosstube. You are correct, no lnd shops in Georgia, so I watch flosstube to see what's out there and then have to order online. I like under an hour time limit. 😊 Have a safe trip!!❤
Seeing you in my notification list makes me sooooo happy! I could spend days listening to you, seeing your beautiful finishes, watching the progress of your WIPs and ooohh la la, all those kitted projects that are yet to come! I do hope I get to see you more than once before your Summer Adventure! Thank you for sharing and that early photo was the BEST!! How I miss and long for my sweetheart to recover from his recent stroke and come back home. Almost 50 years married but still not long enough. Love to you and yours. xoxoxo
I thoroughly enjoyed watching this video. You are right- without an LNS - I depend on flosstube for inspiration, ideas, tips and guidance. Thank you for all you share.
You and Mr. Saltbox are SO adorable. I just love stitching along with you. Your stream of consciousness delivery and the wonderful array of WIPs & kitted charts is loads of fun to see. Thanks for sharing it all.
What a cute couple you were and still are. I always pick a quiet time to watch your videos. You have and are doing so many beautiful pieces. The big tree sampler is just gorgeous! Thank you to you and the professor for sharing your time with us. Peace and blessings.
I love a long video! Specially yours. The pic of you and Mike, I adore it! You guys were too dang cute and ps your daughter really does favor you, can really tell there. Thanks for sharing ! I swear Steve and I have pics of us that look so similar teehee.
I am behind watching so after this I need to go and watch #113. Your videos are always entertaining especially when Mr. Saltbox chimes in, they are interesting, educational, and enabling! You are very down to earth person and like all of us who would like to get more stitching done! There are many of us out here that would like to call you our best friend and just hang out together! Enjoy your trip!
Carol, don't sell yourself short. You are the reason that I started watching flosstube. You were my first and I will be forever grateful. Thank you for sharing yourself with this community. You are a pleasure to spend time with.
You're singing my tune Carol, I want things finished and up on the wall or gifted to someone special. So I'm giving myself Marching Orders 2024 to get pieces Done. I always enjoy seeing your stitching, and enjoying the repartee between you and your beloved. 🙂
Thanks Carol for another wonderful flosstube. Your samplers are gorgeous and you have so many wonderful smalls. What if you spent a whole month doing smalls? I wonder how many you could complete, it would be very interesting. Thanks to Mr Saltbox for his wonderful contributions to your Chanel. Thanks I brought the series from scattered seed, I just love those birds. Love and blessings xx
I’m only 2 weeks behind, but just getting some time to watch your video……Oh My!!! What beautiful samplers you are working on! Jane Atkinson is AMAZING! My LNS is over an hour of city driving away, so I don’t get there often……it is always so inspirational to see all your works…..Thank you for sharing! Loved the pic of you and Mr. Saltbox over 100 years ago!!🤗
Carol you are always a treat. The blue linen blouse you wore in this video is very becoming and it looks so cool, springlike. You are right about stitchers who do not have a local shop. I live outside a small town and Hobby Lobby is about an hour away. So watching flosstubes allows me to see pieces in progress or finished that I don’t know about and might want to order from one of the online shops. Just looking at your walls is so inspirational. Thank you for showing them in each video. Does your sister stitch as much as you do? What fun to have a sister who stitches too. Take care. Carol in Texas
My sister is 5 years younger and when we were growing up, it seemed as though she always wanted to do what I was doing. Sewing etc. Now she stitches some but she’s not crazy like me. She’s more well rounded. Lol
As usual I love your videos! All of your work is beautiful. I have never been to a needle work shop to see samplers in person so I really enjoy seeing all of yours.
Mr Saltbox looks super tall in the photo. I think Bailey needs to make an appearance too. I have a golden named Cooper and he watches your videos with me. I enjoy all of your stitching. Thanks Carol.
Unfortunately Bailey is our granddog and only visits occasionally so we love it when she is here but also miss between visits! Yes hubs is 6’4 and I’m 5’1. Lol
I have tried to get a good screenshot of that pretty floral leaning against your lamp…got it this time!! I knew had to be a Blackbird Designs. Spring Fling! Love your videos!! Beautiful stitches! ❤
Hello Carol, you are too modest. I wish you could see yourself as we see you. Your are so knowledgeable about so many things, your presentations aare very clear. You are one of most charming, elegant women who has entered flosstube and my very finite world. Yet you are humble. God bless you. I love you, too Carol
I enjoy your flosstube so much!! I am just now getting back into cross stitch, started stitch back in the 1970's. A lot has changed since then and I enjoy trying new fabrics and floss. Thank you so much for taking the time to do these videos.
I just love watching your FlossTube! Thank you for sharing your time & stitching with us!! You’re the best!!!💖✨💝💫 Your Liberty Welcome & Summer at Holly Berry farm are gorgeous!❤️✨❤️
Always a joy to sit and stitch with you! I just love your humor and hearing you and Mr Saltbox chatter at each other is delightful. Your stitching is amazing and I appreciate learning things from you. (For example, I never would have considered that red, white, and blue fabric from a distance can read purple!) You are knowledgeable and I love drooling over the things you stitch. Sometimes because they're out of print others because although I may never want to stitch it, they are nevertheless lovely! Thank you!
Thank you so much!!! I made a patriotic quilt years ago and discovered that a red/blue print looked purple in the quilt. It was very disappointing so I always remember that!
I always love watching your floss tube and seeing your projects. I do not have a LNS so seeing finishes is great! Thank you for sharing so much inspiration. The photo of you and Mr Saltbox is adorable, what a cute couple!
The HOUSE -- on "You're a Grand Old Flag" -- whoa! I'm Canadian; our patriotism us...um...let's just say...more muted than you folks south of our border -- BUT as a stitcher, that HOUSE! Whoa! I'm not as "hepped up" about houses as some...and I don't think I've made *any* sampler as large as those on which you've worked (at least, not yet) -- so you have my complete admiration for doing THAT HOUSE!
We have put Karen in our Prayers for healing, good idea to print free charts and share, nice progress on Hawk Run, love Blackbird Designs, you have some amazing designs in the works, love Scattered Seeds has so many lovely designs, love her clubs. Love your framed stitching, so lovely and the perfect frames. love your new stash, I love Patriotic designs. Your husband is so charming to say he loves you on video, love the adorable photo, you are so lovely, even today, your husband is so handsome in the photo. Have a great stitching week.
I get the biggest kick out your banter with your hubby. He must be quite a guy and you both are lovely people. God bless you & your home. Thanks for sharing all your beautiful stitching, plans & “stuff”! ❤

Have you ever been asked “if you could sit and talk with anyone, who would it be?” Well Carol, hands down it would be you. To spend an afternoon talking with and learning from you, would be a dream come true. Your talent and your knowledge just blow me away.
Aww my that’s quite a compliment!!! Thank you so much. You’re very kind!!!
Ps tho, I may be somewhat boring!!!! 🥱
Carol - You are not my one and only, but you were my first and you and Mike are definitely my favorite. Your primitive style and beautiful stitching and finishing, your expertise and suggestions combined with your banter make for a video I always look forward to. And I think you should make YOUR videos just as long or as short as YOU want then to be!!!!!
Thanks so much!
Carol you are awesome! Thank you for showing all the things you want to stitch and all of your beautiful projects & finishes!!
Thank you so much!
Your video guy and you “100 years ago,” wow! Your hair! So pretty! Mr tall and handsome. I just love your video visits. And the editing is superb. 🎉❤ Happy stitching!
Wow, thank you! I’ll relay that to Mr Tall. Lol
You are such an inspiration to me! Your projects are absolutely beautiful. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much!
All your pieces are beautiful, but the Scarlet Letter with the gigantic tree is stunning. I love the multiple colors. And can I say , that blue shirt is your color. 😊 Have a wonderful trip.
Thank you so much!
Hi Carol! I read a couple of comments and I agree with these ladies…don’t sell yourself short! I would love to meet and sit with you and just chat and pick your brain about cross stitching and quilting! And I love the interaction between you and your husband! He’s so sweet! Also so tall! 😅Lol! Love seeing all your stitching and WIPS and finished projects and what you wanna stitch! Happy travels with your sister and happy stitching!
Thanks so much!!!❤️Yes he’s 6’4 (at least he used to be) and I’m 5’1 so we’re definitely Mutt and Jeff.
Really enjoy your videos! The samplers, smalls, upcoming starts, wip’s…I like them all! You mentioned at the start of the video about printing free charts & kitting them as gifts is a great idea. Most look small and would be a quick stitch & memory of the event. This patriotic stitching season will be fun! Have fun with your sister.
Oh thank you!
Love you and Mr. Salt Box! You are both so cute!
😊 thank you
Loved this video with all your pending patriotic stitches! Ordered two charts while watching! So thank you!
Yay! Thank you!
I love watching FlossTube… I don’t have a local Needlework Shop so I enjoy seeing what is out there… I feel like I have a whole new set of friends…I can’t believe how CCS has changed over the years… I’m an old long time stitcher!!😊
Wonderful! Thanks for watching!!!
You are amazing Carol! Keep on stitching!
Thank you so much!
Carol, I will forever watch your videos, no matter if too short or long. Your content is so inspiring. Always enjoy Prof. Mike’s input. His video editing is fabulous! You two are a hoot together!
Thanks so much! You’re very kind!!!❤️
Thank you for the patriotic inspiration, my friend. Take care and happy spring!
Thank you! You too!
I love watching flosstube while I am stitching. I have a few favorites and you have become one of them .😊🪡🪡
Oh thank you!
Love the dress you were wearing in your "youth" picture, and what a handsome couple yesterday and today. Welcome to Wisconsin in a few weeks, we are very green and early flowers/trees are in bloom. Moral Mushrooms are just coming on, oh so good fried in Wisconsin butter. I am just west of Spring Green at the Mushroom Capital - Muscoda. Love all your stitching and love your husband's input on your videos. Have a safe trip on your vacation.
Oh thank you! I’ve had those and yes they’re delicious!
Carol I love your choices I always have to take screenshots of the patterns you are working on or going to work on so I can go purchase them. I always feel inspired and just want to get to stitching! You and your hubby are so funny also! ❤
Thanks so much!!! We certainly enjoy this hobby!!! I get inspired as well when I watch FT!!
Oh..miss carol...I absolutely love u an ur stitching an videos...I have the same taste in decor/ stitchy style as u ,so I'm always writing down ur projects name ECT so I can do them tooo..

Love what you show…I don’t have a local store…love the old patterns too. Thanks for your pictures of the two of you. Have a great week.
Make the copy!! Love your videos, they bring me so much joy.
Loved the photos of you and your husband…the glowing look of happiness on your faces….❤ Great video as always Carol! Thanks for sharing with us. 😊
I enjoy watching your videos and seeing all your beautiful 🤩 kits and finishes. Have a wonderful week and happy stitching 😊🧵🪡🤗🤩
Thank you! You too!
Always love seeing your work but picture was an added bonus. My husband and I have been married 54 years and brought back memories of being young and in love.
I think I was still in my 20s in that picture. Wow! Many years ago!!
Loved your then and now pics! ❤
Yay! Thank you!
Always fun Carol!🪡👍
Thank you 😁
Carol, you inspire me so much. You were one of the first youtube videos i watched and look forward to your new videos with great anticipation. We stitch similar things so, you also enable me, but happily.
Wow, thank you so much!!! ❤️
Carol, another wonderful video. I wish you could see yourself as we see you…..an amazing human!!!❤❤
Wow, thank you!
I love so much of what you stitch and even have some of the patterns and a few that I've finished as well!!!! Keep all the "whatever" parades going, I love them. I have finally convinced myself that any Plum Street is going to take much longer than I think - I love every one of them but for me they just aren't quick stitches!
Thank you so much! I agree! Stacy Nash is the same way!! Love them!
Always enjoy your videos! 🙂
I appreciate that! Thank you!
You know the saying, Carol "Sharing is caring". When I was going to my local EGA meetings, one.of most fun things was everyone.looking and discussing each other's stitching. I love seeing ALL of it.😊
Love that!

Hello from NC Carol…I agree with the little bird! Always fun! Have to tell you, thank you and your husband for sharing all your beautiful pieces with us. A hot cup of tea and an afternoon with Carol…thank you for the inspiration Carol. For calm when the world makes no sense.
Aww thanks so much!!!❤️
Give me all the patriotic cross-stitch!!! They are my very favorites!!!! 🇺🇸
I look forward to whatever you have to show each video - and you and your husband are hilarious together. (You by yourself are quite amusing, also!) Thanks for the video and I know it is a lot of work to get it all together.
Thank you so much!
Thank you for another wonderful video. Your stitching is amazing. I loved seeing your picture from a hundred years ago. What a good looking couple you two are. My best to Mr. Saltbox. Have a great week and happy stitching. Oh, I don't think making a working copy from your friend's chart is wrong since you both purchased the pattern. I say go for it.
Thank you so much!
Great video, as always😊Thanks for sharing it was so much fun.
Thanks so much! 😊
Loved this video . I really enjoy seeing the progress on your samplers .
- Yes , it was me that finished the “ One Nation “. I totally enjoyed that stitch .
I enjoy your videos whether they be long or short . 😊 We stitch a lot of the same things and as you pulled things out I thought “ Oh , I need to start that or I need to finish that !”
Thanks for a lovely Floss Tube .

Oh thank you so much Lisa!!! Will I see you at Country Sampler Stitch Camp? Hope so!!
Love your flosstube, and love you!
Thank you!
I don't comment often because I'm stitching while watching. I love watching you though. I'm so inspired by you. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much!
you are my favorite ... straight forward, clear, honest, and clearly you love our country! Thank you! You are amazing! Please introduce us to your beautiful dog one day!!
Bailey is my granddog. She gets to have sleepovers occasionally and we love her. She’s a beautiful 5 year old golden retriever!!❤️
I laugh our first house had red wallpaper with gold eagles in kitchen it was 1971 and I could not wait to tear that off!! You always inspire me with your stitching and quilts
Love it!! Thanks!

I love your finish of "It's Berry Time" and all your patriotic charts. It was fun seeing Mr. Saltbox, I don't think I've ever seen him before.
Great progress on your samplers.
Love all of the Patriotic choices you have.
That is going to be a fun trip!
Marilyn
Thanks so much!!! I always appreciate your kind comments!!❤️❤️❤️

Thanks again for video - your sampler stitching is awesome - as are all your projects - have a great week
Thank you! You too!
Love each and every episode you post. I am one of those people without a LNS so flosstube is a great resource for me. Makes me feel like I belong to a community also,
Wonderful! Thank you for watching!!! We are in big community even if we stitch very different things!
I love watching your video’s. Your right, I don’t have a local LNS so I get all my inspiration from seeing what other stitches are doing.
Thanks so much!!!
Wow, you and Mr Saltbox in your younger days! (whistling!) He's very tall! I'm starting a couple patriotic pieces for Maynia. I don't have enough to display. I think an hour of listening to you talk about and show your stitching works for me👍🏽😁

I love watching and listening to you Carol and your projects are so beautiful to see. Btw stitching and all things associated are definitely a disease but one I happily suffer 😂
Thank you!! I gladly suffer as well!!! ❤️
Thank you Carol for sharing you stitches. Without you I would not know about Blackbird Designs. I have been collecting them since Covid. I have also been shopping the OOP Blackbird Charts. And maybe one day I will have as many charts as you😂
Wonderful! Definitely my favorites!!!

Yay, thank you so much!!!❤️
Carol, it's kinda like having a stitchy friend too. XO
Thanks for an Awesome flosstube. You are correct, no lnd shops in Georgia, so I watch flosstube to see what's out there and then have to order online. I like under an hour time limit. 😊 Have a safe trip!!❤

Thank you! I’m praying for you and your husband!!! ❤️🙏🏼
Great video. Love all the patriotic patterns.
Thank you Nancy! Hope you had fun on your trip!!!
Another fabulous floss tube. You’re such a joy to watch and I love the input from your hubby. 💕💕
Thank you so much!
I enjoy your videos so much, love listening to you and your husband, you guys make me smile!!
Thank you so much!
I thoroughly enjoyed watching this video. You are right- without an LNS - I depend on flosstube for inspiration, ideas, tips and guidance. Thank you for all you share.
Thanks so much!
Length of your videos is perfect. Perfect like your work/ projects, displays, presentations etc etc etc. You are just perfect!!😊
AGREED!!!
Wow, thank you!
You and Mr. Saltbox are SO adorable. I just love stitching along with you. Your stream of consciousness delivery and the wonderful array of WIPs & kitted charts is loads of fun to see. Thanks for sharing it all.
Stream of consciousness is a nice way to say my ramblings. lol. 😂 Thanks!!
Love all your projects!
What a cute couple you were and still are. I always pick a quiet time to watch your videos. You have and are doing so many beautiful pieces. The big tree sampler is just gorgeous! Thank you to you and the professor for sharing your time with us.
Peace and blessings.
Thank you so much!
Not illegal as long as you don’t sell it. You already own the chart. You just need a clearer copy
I love a long video! Specially yours. The pic of you and Mike, I adore it! You guys were too dang cute and ps your daughter really does favor you, can really tell there. Thanks for sharing ! I swear Steve and I have pics of us that look so similar teehee.
I am behind watching so after this I need to go and watch #113. Your videos are always entertaining especially when Mr. Saltbox chimes in, they are interesting, educational, and enabling! You are very down to earth person and like all of us who would like to get more stitching done! There are many of us out here that would like to call you our best friend and just hang out together! Enjoy your trip!
Thanks so much!!!❤️
Carol, don't sell yourself short. You are the reason that I started watching flosstube. You were my first and I will be forever grateful. Thank you for sharing yourself with this community. You are a pleasure to spend time with.
Oh thank you so much!!! I appreciate that!
Love your husband "kibitizing" in the background, reminds me of my grandfather. :}
One nut talking to another nut!!!
You're singing my tune Carol, I want things finished and up on the wall or gifted to someone special. So I'm giving myself Marching Orders 2024 to get pieces Done. I always enjoy seeing your stitching, and enjoying the repartee between you and your beloved. 🙂
Wonderful! I’m hoping to finish more than just those 4 samplers!!! We’ll see!!!
Thanks Carol for another wonderful flosstube. Your samplers are gorgeous and you have so many wonderful smalls. What if you spent a whole month doing smalls? I wonder how many you could complete, it would be very interesting. Thanks to Mr Saltbox for his wonderful contributions to your Chanel. Thanks I brought the series from scattered seed, I just love those birds. Love and blessings xx
Thank you!
I’m only 2 weeks behind, but just getting some time to watch your video……Oh My!!! What beautiful samplers you are working on! Jane Atkinson is AMAZING! My LNS is over an hour of city driving away, so I don’t get there often……it is always so inspirational to see all your works…..Thank you for sharing! Loved the pic of you and Mr. Saltbox over 100 years ago!!🤗
Carol you are always a treat. The blue linen blouse you wore in this video is very becoming and it looks so cool, springlike. You are right about stitchers who do not have a local shop. I live outside a small town and Hobby Lobby is about an hour away. So watching flosstubes allows me to see pieces in progress or finished that I don’t know about and might want to order from one of the online shops. Just looking at your walls is so inspirational. Thank you for showing them in each video. Does your sister stitch as much as you do? What fun to have a sister who stitches too. Take care. Carol in Texas
My sister is 5 years younger and when we were growing up, it seemed as though she always wanted to do what I was doing. Sewing etc. Now she stitches some but she’s not crazy like me. She’s more well rounded. Lol
As usual I love your videos! All of your work is beautiful. I have never been to a needle work shop to see samplers in person so I really enjoy seeing all of yours.
Thank you so much!
Carol your videos are the best. Love the love and fun between you and your lovely husband too, very very special xxxx
Thank you so much!
Thanks for sharing! You look very lovely in that color!
Oh thank you!
Mr Saltbox looks super tall in the photo. I think Bailey needs to make an appearance too. I have a golden named Cooper and he watches your videos with me. I enjoy all of your stitching. Thanks Carol.
Unfortunately Bailey is our granddog and only visits occasionally so we love it when she is here but also miss between visits! Yes hubs is 6’4 and I’m 5’1. Lol
I have tried to get a good screenshot of that pretty floral leaning against your lamp…got it this time!! I knew had to be a Blackbird Designs. Spring Fling! Love your videos!! Beautiful stitches! ❤
Thanks so much!!
Again thank you ❤
Hello Carol, you are too modest. I wish you could see yourself as we see you. Your are so knowledgeable about so many things, your presentations aare very clear. You are one of most charming, elegant women who has entered flosstube and my very finite world. Yet you are humble. God bless you. I love you, too Carol
Wow, thank you so much!!! You’re very kind!!❤️❤️
Carol, you are soooooo interesting. And inspiring io me. Loved the video and the picture of you and your husband. You make my day!
Thank you so much!
I enjoy your flosstube so much!! I am just now getting back into cross stitch, started stitch back in the 1970's. A lot has changed since then and I enjoy trying new fabrics and floss. Thank you so much for taking the time to do these videos.
Thank you for watching! And yes a lot has changed! We are blessed to have so many beautiful charts, fibers and linens to choose from!!!❤️
I just love watching your FlossTube! Thank you for sharing your time & stitching with us!! You’re the best!!!💖✨💝💫 Your Liberty Welcome & Summer at Holly Berry farm are gorgeous!❤️✨❤️
Always a joy to sit and stitch with you! I just love your humor and hearing you and Mr Saltbox chatter at each other is delightful. Your stitching is amazing and I appreciate learning things from you. (For example, I never would have considered that red, white, and blue fabric from a distance can read purple!) You are knowledgeable and I love drooling over the things you stitch. Sometimes because they're out of print others because although I may never want to stitch it, they are nevertheless lovely! Thank you!
Thank you so much!!! I made a patriotic quilt years ago and discovered that a red/blue print looked purple in the quilt. It was very disappointing so I always remember that!
I always love watching your floss tube and seeing your projects. I do not have a LNS so seeing finishes is great! Thank you for sharing so much inspiration. The photo of you and Mr Saltbox is adorable, what a cute couple!
Thank you so much!
Just love your floss tube
The HOUSE -- on "You're a Grand Old Flag" -- whoa! I'm Canadian; our patriotism us...um...let's just say...more muted than you folks south of our border -- BUT as a stitcher, that HOUSE! Whoa! I'm not as "hepped up" about houses as some...and I don't think I've made *any* sampler as large as those on which you've worked (at least, not yet) -- so you have my complete admiration for doing THAT HOUSE!
I do love BIG houses!!! Especially red ones!!
We have put Karen in our Prayers for healing, good idea to print free charts and share, nice progress on Hawk Run, love Blackbird Designs, you have some amazing designs in the works, love Scattered Seeds has so many lovely designs, love her clubs.
Love your framed stitching, so lovely and the perfect frames. love your new stash, I love Patriotic designs.
Your husband is so charming to say he loves you on video, love the adorable photo, you are so lovely, even today, your husband is so handsome in the photo.
Have a great stitching week.
Thank you so much!!! ❤️
I get the biggest kick out your banter with your hubby. He must be quite a guy and you both are lovely people. God bless you & your home. Thanks for sharing all your beautiful stitching, plans & “stuff”! ❤
😊 thank you
