    Hello ladies . I've been rewatching some of your flosstubes and enjoy them as much as I did the first time I watched. I wanted to update you on my Florence Mary Dickinson sampler that you assured me I could do, its just 1 stitch at a time! It was my New Years Day start in 2023 and I finished it on May 12, 2023. I loved every stitch and hated to finish it!! It has since been framed and is hanging near my "nest", where I stitch, so I see it always. I did it on creme brulee from Tabby Cat and just love it, or as Carol Saltbox would say, I love it, love it, love it. Thank you both for the time I get to spend with you on flosstube and the encouragement to stitch Florence Mary, as I call her. Have a Happy Thanksgiving with your families.

    Football was sad today and I was searching for some happiness. I saw yall in my feed and out loud I said “my friends are on!” My husband looked like he could now have me certified but will have to be satisfied with a happy wife. He will have a happy life! Thank you thank you.

    I was just in Naperville a couple of weeks ago- my husband is the team videographer for the University of Massachusetts football team and we (got) played (by) NIU. I’d never been to Illinois before and I was amazed by the size of the cornfields we drove past en route to the hotel. I was impressed by the hospitality of the fans and next year when we join the mid American conference we’ll play NIU more often. Maybe someday if I get back we’ll have the chance to meet. I wasn’t going to stitch this afternoon until I saw your new video. Thank you for a lovely afternoon ❤

    Loved watching about Hobby House! Wonderful tribute to Nathan of designing a chart. I lost a son to cancer 11 years ago and my daughter recently had a mammogram, ultrasound and now will be having a biopsy.

    Thank you for another wonderful inspiring video. I couldn’t watch yesterday as my husband and I were watching one of the Star Wars movies (Laura will understand lol). I purchased Ann Pearce as soon as I saw it on Brenda’s instagram. It touches my heart.
    I am making my first road trip to Hobby House next weekend for the My Life is a Sampler II retreat. I am so excited but also very nervous since I won’t know anyone there. You two always say not to worry but it’s hard not to be nervous. After watching your video, I have added a few more things to my shopping list. Can’t wait to see the wonderful shop.

    As always you shared a lovely inspirational video. I usually add something to my wish list after your videos but today I had to purchase Ann Pearce while watching. I can’t imagine how heartbreaking it would be to lose a son and I was more than happy to support this fund raising event. Mind I didn’t see the Algerian eyelets until I purchased the chart! Maybe this chart is the push I need to give them a go 😊. Thanks for sharing.

    Thank you so much for all the goodness you shared with us today. I don’t often hit buy I. A middle of a flosstube but I think today was a first. I’d love to get up to Hobby House Needleworks someday not to mention the Attic. Hopefully someday will come. I never thought I’d get to Country Sampler and that came true so there is hope. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving and see you next time.

    All the things! I couldn’t fit all my haul from the retreat & HHN in my bags! So, one of my table mates drove it back to Indiana with her and we’ll rendezvous so I can pick it up. It’s wonderful you promote “A Mother’s Love” - Melissa is amazing and her story so very moving. If all of us viewers purchase this project, what a tribute to Nathan. My fingers are crossed that I’ll be a participant at Sampler Symposium and see you both again. Enjoy your break - can only imagine the finishes Laura will have….may need to change the name of your flosstube from ‘serial starter’ to ‘serial finisher’!❤️

I have purchased a few of the featured kits on Homespun. They are fantastic. Ladies enjoy your time off and Happy Thanksgiving. You both will be missed. One last thing. Brenda I hope you feel better soon. Until the next video, Happy Stitching.

    I just love your videos! You two are bright stars in my day. I sure wish I could attend a retreat either at Hobby House or the Attic but besides the walking I’m not sure if I could do it along with not sure I’m a good enough stitcher, as I’m an Aida stitcher and have trouble with seeing the wholes in linen. But I can enjoy all the flosstubes about all the traveling you two do! Have a nice break and enjoy everyday!
