Gorgeous stitching ladies. Kerri, I absolutely love love love your Turkish Delight. Love the colours. Beautiful!
Such beautiful stitches girls. My jaw dropped when I saw Turkish Delight. I would never have given that chart a second look but your conversion, Kerri is stunning! I so enjoyed spending some time with you while I stitched today. Hugs and blessings on your coming week!
George Washington cut down a cherry tree, This is my first time watching you and I so enjoy it. Have to love those "one stop shopping stores like Canadian tire.
At Jacobpalooza, our table was half American half Canadian and we were trying to explain Canadian tire. The Americans were so confused 😂
I always love seeing all the works in progress and finishes. Everything is always so beautiful. I always make a list of everything I want to purchase. Including a lap frame or a floor frame. I can’t imagine how many projects I could complete Caroline if I had as many frames as you! I always wondered how you were able to fly through so many charts. Compared to me with my little Qsnap. 😜 I’m just kidding. It’s your job. And I’m happy that you have those tools at your disposal. You need them for your work. I’m just jealous I can’t get through my projects as quickly. But, I have some Bible study friends who have invited me to come visit them in their beach cottage on their island. So I suspect I might or might not get a bit of peaceful stitching done while I’m away repairing my soul. I really was just kidding. 💕Staysea. It’s actually a myth that George Washington chopped down a cherry tree. When given a hatchet at the age of six, George’s father was upset when he found a cut on one of his cherry trees. When asking George about it George declared “I can not tell a lie I did cut thee apple tree.” Years later This iconic story about the value of honesty was invented by one of Washington’s first biographers, a traveling minister and bookseller named Mason Locke Weems. After Washington’s death in 1799, people were anxious to learn about the first President. Weems explained to a publisher in January 1800:
"Washington you know is gone! Millions are gaping to read something about him...My plan! I give his history, sufficiently minute…I then go on to show that his unparalleled rise and elevation were due to his Great Virtues."
I share your love of Canadian Tire. The wine glasses in our cottage in Canada came from CT, along with many other random things. We have nothing quite like it in the States. The tree G. Washington was purported to chop down was a cherry tree - Caroline was right. One last thing - did you remember to order bubble mailers? 😀
It was a Cherry Tree.....😃 Don't feel bad about not knowing.....I would be the same when it comes to your Canadian history!!
Order Bubble Mailers Caroline!!! Wow Kerri that is some heavy stitching for the MFE SAL. Good job for getting it done. I'm still working on the 2021 SAL and I'm only in April. 🤭 Woo Hoo for the 2024 SAL. Kerri, I loved all of the colors you used for the past two years so thank you for those. I am however really intrigued about this year. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate all of the incredibly hard work the whole team does to get us these precious advent calendars. Waking up every morning from the 1st to the 25th of Dec to not only the gift in the envelope but also the gift of stitching with so many people is beyond wonderful and brings me incredible joy. So again, thanks to all of you busy bees. 🐝❤🐝
I’m so sorry our IRS can be fun to deal with. But thank you for loving us all enough to deal with them!!!
First time viewer - enjoyed it!
Thanks so much for sharing my finish! I can't wait for the 2024 Holiday Countdown. Always fun to hang out with you both!
I must admit I’m very jealous of that cute baby all curled up at the end of the video. Best “out tro” yet!
Always a pleasure to hang with you both. I am getting so excited about Stitch North!!
This Canadian did not know Canadian Tire is also a bank! Such beautiful finishes and wips. It’s so fun spending time with you too. I just love how you tow make each other laugh so much! I am looking forward to the change in the amount of colors for the holiday countdown this year. Don’t get me wrong - I do love the all the colors of the first two but I think this is a good change.
Kerri, would you ever consider doing a “Kerri conversion” on Dutch Beauty? I want to stitch that piece so bad, but the colors seem so drab. A conversion with your fabric, thread and your color sense would be just amazing.
Always fab content!!!!!!
Such gorgeous stitches, finishes, flosses and linens. I just love seeing all the pretty things! I live in the states and did not realize all of the issues our individual state taxes have on a businesses. I enjoy when you share some of the “behind the scenes” elements of Evertotes. It makes me see things from a different perspective and appreciate the small businesses even more!
Caroline…so much progress! Ladies the videos are never too long…chat on.
I slept like a log thank you 💤💤💤 Finally got to sit down this afternoon to watch you after meeting up with a dear friend earlier on.
Caroline your finishes are beautiful 👏👏👏 & your needle is on fire these days.
I literally gasped out loud when I saw Turkish Delight Kerri. It is incredible. Such a joy to see it coming to life.
I'm actually stitching on MFE 2024 SAL as I watched. I have the Irish Quaker as well so will think about joining in March. I'm definitely having a Jacob/Roxy Floss Co year & I'm not complaining 😂😂😂
I am very tempted to join the Holiday Countdown this year.
Kerri, have a great holiday. Looking forward to seeing you both again in a fortnight & seeing your progress on all the beautiful projects. Take care, best wishes from 🇮🇪
Thank you Anne Marie!
I’m swooning today! Halsingland Blommer finished so beautifully Caroline. And, Kerri, I am blown away by your gorgeous Turkish Delight. Truly, in its chart form I wouldn’t really have looked twice at it but your conversion makes it something to aspire to! Thanks for the chat and inspiration ladies!
RE: US taxes: be careful! The Curious Crafters flosstube (Caroline and Anna) are fans in northern California and have been talking up both Evertote and Roxy Floss ...as are your long-time fans, Brenda and Laura-friend-of-Ellen...
Kerri and Caroline, your works are so beautiful, you inspire me! Also inspiring is knowing that Caroline may soon be able to recommend a local framer that I can give my business to! Since my return to cross stitching in 2022, my very few finished works are sitting sadly in a corner on the shelf, waiting to be framed by someone reputable. I look forward to the word, Caroline.
Fun, finishes and future plans ..all we need from a floss tube, thanks ladies 😊
Carolyn, the first piece you shows (which I can't even begin to spell) is just absolutely gorgeous. Congratulations on the finish. I have toyed with buying Busy Hands and decided I would save my purchases for something I really love/love, but now that I see your finish, I just might love/love it.
Oh now I need to get cracking on my Hibernation Day. Yours is gorgeous. I am doing mine on an opalescent fabric. But barely started.
I always feel that I want to stitch everything that I see on your videos after watching you two. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful floss, fabric, and stitching. Note - I bought a nice little frame at Canadian Tire to frame one of my cross stitch pieces.
Canadian Tire frame!! 😂😂😂 I love it!
George Washington was chopping cherries, that is why they are in the border! All of the stitching was awesome! The video was great as always!
Thank you for confirming that tidbit of American history! {off to see why he would be chopping cherries - now I’m intrigued}
@@roxy.flossco Can’t help you with that! Sorry! All I know was he could not tell a lie, he chopped it down!
Always enjoy, regardless of the length of the video, just shorter ones are easier to sit and watch all the way through in one sitting
I always enjoy your videos, projects and the friendship and support shown as working partners. Do you happen to remember the ornament issue where 'Joy' was found. Such a little bit of beauty!
Thanks for another great, informative video. You guys always make me laugh. I love seeing all your WIPs and finishes. I can't wait to unpack my craft room now that I've moved and get started on some of my 2024 goals.
Thank you for the countdown for 2024. Did 2023 and enjoyed it.
So many wonderful projects ladies! So many things I want to stitch!
Happy to see your fabulous finishes and progress on your WIPs. Turkish Delight is just so gorgeous! My SALentine box arrived and has been carefully set aside for the start on February 14. My next visit to Canada I have to visit a Canadian Tire store! I may need to start the Irish Quaker sampler...I picked up the chart at Jacob-Palooza and using the floss from the 2023 Holiday Countdown is a great idea. Feb 1 is on my calendar now.
Now that you're friends with the IRS you might just as well go for citizenship! So far North Carolina is staying on your good side - hope it stays that way.
It makes me so happy to see your face truly beaming with joy. 🤩 🥰🤩Of course, I actually wanted to send you and the two boys the pillow cases for Christmas, but times are always such a thing...
I'm very happy that I was able to bring you joy.❤
❤️❤️❤️ Its such a treasure of a gift - thank you so much!
@@evertote I thank you from the bottom of my heart and yet there is a little misunderstanding 😢 I didn't sew the back of the pillow myself, but bought it ready-made. Of course I can also sew a hidden zipper, but I was under such time pressure so I made it easy for myself and just bought the back ready. Hidden Zippers or Laced Zippers really screams of maximum concentration 😳🥴
The front is actually 100% cut, pieced and quilted by me. 🥰 I send you all the best and I'm glad I was able to give you a little joy.
I love this!!
Nice to see you two again as always. Sorry you had to start dealing with all of the tax stuff. In Illinois there is a state sales tax. Then the different counties in the state can add to that, individual cities can add to it. That's why there are different rates depending on where you live in the state. Can't make things simple of course. Take care.
Kerri, love your plaid shirt! All the projects you two do are amazing! Most of my patterns are from Jacob - at least for now! Will try to join the SAL! You are both very entertaining and knowledgeable. Cheers.
Cannot wait for Feb 1! I was really sad not to have known about the 2023 holiday box sooner so will definitely will be on it for 2024! 😁
Oh I’m excited about the 2024 Advent Sal colour scheme!
I honestly don’t mind if it includes some existing colours along with many new.
We love the floss names! When we open each day's countdown, we carefully reveal the name of the color and try to guess what it is, and then how you came up with it. So, where did "11 points more" come from?! Love you all ❤
Aha! 11 Points is our Canadian flag red and the maple leaf has 11 points. 11 Points More is … more 🤣 a slightly deeper shade and less variegation. 🇨🇦
Gigi has an art degree...former painter. Her stuff is amazing. Just started Grace.
That 💯makes sense! ❤
Oh, my gosh! Your projects are stunning! A visual feast!
Ladies great to see you. I'll have to wait till the am to watch in full as my bed is calling at 1.30am here in 🇮🇪
Sleep tight!
I have seriously become an Evernote/Roxyfloss convert, not to mention MFE!
You guys do an amazing job and the attention to detail is phenomenal!
Thank you so much!
Love you videos! I look forward to seeing all of them!
Love love love your stitching. All your projects are so beautiful.
I have done bienveinuti and loved it! I have a few of Jacob’s older patterns and need to do them! My Roxy floss stash will be a help for sure.
As an Illinois viewer, I am happy to be able to order directly rather than keeping the emails going back and forth, even if I have to pay a bit more. Good to know before ordering the Countdown box. I must admit you know more about US history than I do Canadian, however I do know how many periods there are in a hockey game as I had 4 kids all play. Also poutine is delicious - can't recreate the flavor we tasted in Banff! Thanks for all the info, it might take more than one day, but I do watch till the end
Beautiful work Kerri and Caroline!!
😂😂😂
Can’t wait to see your projects! I would dm Carmen for the details of the SAL as we’re just jumping on board blindly 😂
I would watch you in your entirety even if your videos were 4 hours long! Great finishes, great progress! I'm getting better at knitting... I'm so excited, my collection of Roxy Floss will be here tomorrow!!!

Illinois has a set state tax and then each county (there are 102) has it's own county tax. Thus Chicago (located in "crook" county) is much more then the rest of the state.
- escaped this madness several years ago. Whew. Yes Indiana has county taxes also but nothing like the rates of Illinois
You should change the cherries to maple leaves.
Love catching up. Can you please now name a floss "whatever"? LoL. Thanks for the warning about the peacorn. My copy did have the wrong dimensions... but I'm OK. I have room for 2.5 on each with the correct count. I started a bit far over but the math works Phew!
I was hoping you would show Turkish Delight!! It is stunning!
Phew 😅!!
Oh my gosh, I love listening to you two. I am coming to Stitch North, weekend 2. I am so excited to meet you both! It will be my first out of town retreat, my first trip to Toronto, will be by myself. Hotel reservations made, airline tickets bought, wow….Not excited about flying, but it will be ok! Can’t wait!
I’m so glad you’re coming!!! 🥰
Carolyn, you r Halsingland Bloomer is gorgeous. Congratulations on all your finishes.
Seriously, you both know more about US history than we in the US know about Canadian history😂
Trying to choose between continuing with a third year of Roxy floss of the month subscription or the holiday SAL. I can’t really justify both. I bought the pattern for this past year’s SAL and used floss from my subscription. I don’t know. I love getting the floss every month but I’d really like to buy the whole box this year. What’s a girl to do???
Your Halsingland Blommer is gorgeous! I got my PUB floss and fabric yesterday and I’m hoping to start this weekend. The PUB Crawl fabric is just beautiful. 💚 Sadly my SALentine box which left Las Vegas a few hours before the PUB shipment hasn’t been scanned since. 😢 I’m still hoping it gets here safely.
🤞!!!!!
@@evertoteMy SALentine box arrived today, after over a week off the grid. :) Thank goodness! I love it.
Could we get your color conversion on Turkish Delight. That is incredible. Just gorgeous!!
Yes! We have it available in the shop - if you type Turkish Delight into our search bar it will pop right up. Thank you!
Love the colours you chose for your MFE 2024 SAL piece. I am doing it also but had a big error and had to frog about 1/4. I then decided to take the time to add in gridding with Easy-Count guideline. So starting to stitch again now but way behind.
Sorry to hear about the 🐸 visit but glad you’re back on track.
Boo to errors!!
It's becoming apparent that I have to turn the computer around so I don't actually see what you are showing... or I only let myself look once a month, or I should get myself a part time job to help pay for charts.... As far as the Christmas SAL goes - I've not seen anything hideous come out of your shop - remember you can't please all of the people all of the time - so, people make a choice to participate or not. I'm all in - it was too fun watching the '23 SAL! Doesn't really matter if it suits my home - it will suit someone's... and it will be mostly DONE come the end! Thanks for this - I have to go and order a couple of charts...
❤️❤️❤️ thank you Dawn and sorry!!
Canadian Tire often has the best kitchenware deals!
Yes they do!!
It was a cherry tree🤗
So you have the conversion for the rosewood manor piece? That is gorgeous
At the beginning of your video you mentioned big birthday plans. Did I miss what they are.
🥰 I talked a bit about it in the previous flosstube for 50 for 50. I’m planning to start and finish 50 total things this year, and on my actual birthday I have some special starts but I haven’t shared what they will be yet ☺️
Is there possibly of get the floss for turkish delight. It is so beautiful i look at the original pattern and seeing it sa they stitched it not my cup of tea but your conversation is gorgeous
Hello! We do have Kerri's conversion in the shop - it is linked in the description box on this video - thank you for asking!
For the 2024 project, will you be selling the individual packs of cards only? I really liked that option.
Yes we will!
So many nice things to add to my list! I’ve bought the pdf for your Kathy Barrick - I’ll check the website for the Roxy conversion.
Also planning to start the sleeper SAL.
And I have a question … your # for 50 that I saw in the last flosstube … what does it mean? Thanks!
I’m doing 50 starts/finishes for my 50th birthday year 😃
@@evertote thanks … understand it now!
Super excited for round 2 of #kerrisdirtychristmas. Any chance you would offer stitchnorth fall delivery to save shipping?
IDK but definitely a question for the big boss 😉
🤣 well yes - but we would have to charge you our provincial sales tax for that privilege. So pick your poison. ☠️
Sounds like a Walmart.
Hi Ladies. Did you have the IG name for Michael, the quilted pillow artist? It is a beautifully crafted piece.
Hi yes sorry - I did put it on the screen but neglected to add to description box - he is @xstitchmichael
@@evertote Thank you so much!!One of the hazards of cross-stitching while watching flosstube... sometimes missing text on the screen. 😂🤗🪡💕
Can I please have a link to the gigi made it insta account? There was a couple i found under this name with different variations but could not find the one who wares the knitted scarf in a pretty way :)
Hi! Her IG is @ggmadeit and if you go to her reels, about 7 reels down the screen shot cover says “hand knit scarf hack” enjoy!
@@evertote wow , stunning :) Thank you!
