Thank you for doing these videos. Just love your little puppies, as they are absolutely adorable. They enhance the floss tubes. Thanks for sharing.
I just found your Flosstube! Keep it going! You are sincere and authentic. Thanks for putting your projects out there.
I love that new "old" frame, Girlfriend. It's beautiful! What a chart collection you have! Wow!
I've also learned to not lend out charts, books, etc except to my sisters unless I don't mind giving that particular item away which would be very unusual for me. My idea is not really due to all the copyright issues. It's strictly because, I seldom would ever receive the item I loaned back and I got sick of it .
Yes your face looks pretty inside that old frame your husband found. Don't be so hard on yourself. That tray with the burn on the corner - how about trying to sand away that burnt part to make it less dark? Or paint a layer of white at that spot before doing another colour on the entire tray. Loved the B charts. Keep them coming!
I love all your samplers and will be purchasing Miss Lucy Calcutt as it is definitely one of my favourites. Another wonderful video. Thank you Deana for sharing. Take Care.
Thanks for doing your videos! Completely understand on not loaning patterns!!!
Pinterest has a lot of older patterns.
I am going to stitch Happy Ever After by Long Dog Samplers for Sampler September. First time I’ve ever participated. I am excited.
Hi Deana. Thanks so much for another enjoyable video. I always love seeing Tudie and it was great to meet Hannah this time! I agree with your policy about loaning out your charts. My biggest worry as well would be not getting them back.
Gosh, I sure enjoy your flosstub.
You have a great collection of charts. You have a lot I have never seen.
Another great video. Keep posting.
You do have some great older designs.
I don't lend my patterns either.
I love Brightneedle.
I heard they are going to design again, but haven't seen anything yet.
Theresa Venette of Kitten Stitcher started Sampler September.
Hannah & Tootie are too cute!
Marilyn
That would be great if they do start designing again. The market is certainly there for them.
Hi Deana. .I have 2 Chihuahuas.. The one who is 13 yrs old is exactly like Hanna.. She's afraid of every little thing. I have to sit next to her while she's eating cuz she jumps at every sound. It's annoying but I love her! This is what we do for our babies.. 😊
The thing is Hannah thinks she big and bad until she gets scared!🙄
I love that your dogs join you on the videos! They are all adorable. Thank you for another great video. I love your honesty about lending out charts and was glad you were unwilling to do so. Your reasoning is sound and very understandable! You also make a interesting point about out of print charts.
Hi Deana. New viewer here. I enjoyed your video very much. Loved seeing the samplers you're doing. I'm doing a different sampler per week for Sampler September. I agree completely about loaning charts. I've been burned before. An ex-friend still has a pattern of mine to this day. Never again will I loan a chart out.
Welcome! Glad you enjoyed watching my videos. That's a good way to get some hefty stitching done by working on each one for a week.
Enjoyed your video.
Great stitching. Always looks better to see it in person or on RUclips than the designer's pattern picture. For the one that you are wanting to tone down, have you seen where stitchers are following Brenda Gervais' instructions for toning down DMC by soaking all the threads . Makes them very pretty. I think it was for Elizabeth Hunt 1845.
I have not seen that. Do you know what process they are using?
@@thenightlystitcher Nicole's Needlework Flosstube #121 about 8 minutes in. She shows her dyed DMC and a bit about it for the sampler Elizabeth Hunt 1845 by Brenda Gervais. There are detailed videos online if you search for tea& coffee dyed DMC. Good luck!
So happy to see you Dena! I am very fond of my charts also. I too will be at Galleria and hope to run into you there. Carol from Brunswick
I hope we see each other also. I'm only going for the day. Are you staying longer?
@@thenightlystitcher I'm going Thursday evening and Friday. Hoping to find some nice fabrics. What day will you attend?
@@carolkistler8003 we are thinking probably Friday
@@thenightlystitcher great!! Will be watching for you.
Yes, I am going to do Sampler September. I'll be stitching Modern Folk Embroidery's "Irish Quaker Sampler". I love watching your videos and congratulations on learning how to edit. I don't think I could do it for sure. Thanks for showing your beautiful dogs too!
I love your sunflower tree! U don’t have to apologize about loaning out your charts. It’s your collection. And I agree w u about OOP charts. Enjoy your videos!
Thanks for keeping me company while I stitch this evening!!! Loved meeting Hannah! Can’t wait to meet the rest! 💕. I am participating in Sampler September and in the Hands on Design Costume Party!!
I agree with you completely on not loaning out or even selling your charts. I have loaned out my books, my gardening tools, items of clothing, etc. to folks I really trusted with my cared for items and either never got them back or received them stained and damaged. Now I just have the same “rule” for everyone, I’m sorry I can’t loan it out. I collect books and tools and plan on leaving them to my children who are also gardeners. I am a new subscriber to your Flosstube and enjoy the variety of charts you present, your birds in the background, and your lovely dogs. Thank you for all the work you put into our community.
Thank you Debra for subscribing and commenting. It's good to hear from you.
Hello Deana, enjoyed your flosstube, lovely stitching and patterns. We aren't as lucky here in UK in that our supply shops are few and far between, and shipping costs are sometimes big. That's how it is though and it won't stop us stitching. Beautiful patterns, and I don't blame you for not loaning them out. Not everyone is as careful. Happy stitching x
I laughed out loud about your “mug” in the frame! Love watching your videos and seeing what your husband comes up with in storage units he buys. That frame is awesome. I would try to leave it as natural as possible with a good cleaning. Can’t wait to see what you decide to put in it.
Deanna, thank you for explaining the vertical thread, still can’t figure out where to bring up needle, above or below where the horizontal thread goes under or over the vertical thread. Don’t feel badly about charts. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for watching and commenting. I'm going to do a quick tutorial on the vertical thread on my next video. You are actually coming up to the bottom left of the vertical thread so that would also be to the bottom right on the horizontal thread. Hope this helps.
@@thenightlystitcher Thank you! Got it!! Happy stitchy day!
Hi Deana-great flosstube. Loved meeting Hannah, she's so adorable and loved hearing your birds. I've been stitching since the early 80's, took a hiatus to work and knitting and have recently come back (last year) and never heard of the vertical thread. Yes, please insert a tutorial would like to learn more! See you in two weeks, enjoy the holiday weekend!
My dogs, 3 Australian Shepherds and a Tibetan Terrier quite enjoyed trying to find your birds while I was watching. They weren’t out the window. The weren’t out on the deck. They were quite confused. I would not be lending my charts either. I have lent out books and DVDs that have never come back or come back in poor condition. It is not worth the hassle. I would certainly be interested in any tutorials. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you Pauline. I will be working on tutorials for the future now that I can edit. Hope the birds didn't keep your dogs barking. I never noticed them being so loud until I played back the video. I'm moving them to the bathroom next time.
@@thenightlystitcher My dogs were not barking. Just running back and forth trying to find them. It was quite funny. Normally they do not react so strongly to sounds from the television.
So nice to meet you Hannah! Always a fun flosstube.
Nice meeting Hannah! Don't be hard on yourself - it took me two years to work up to making my first flosstube - I just kept thinking, who would watch me? You are a joy to watch, love seeing your stitching, and your charts. No need to apologize for not wanting to lend out your charts, that's your prerogative. Love that old frame - I'd just give it a clean, then touch up the bare spots. Have fun at Galleria!
Thanks for another project-filled video. You have so much to share! I’m stitching on a variety of pieces as I pretty much stitch on what I want to when I want to and won’t be stitching sampler September.
Another great video. Your dogs are just precious. Oh my god you have a wonderful collection of charts and you are only in the b's. Cant wait to see them all . Just amazing . Thanks for eveything you do for our community. Hapyy stitching .I am not participating in sampler sept. Samplers are not my things . right now I am stitching halloween and then moving on to christmas . Have a great week
You’ve got a great mug for that frame! Thank you for sharing your patterns and giving your stitching advice; I didn’t know that about the vertical thread.
I will be showing that in the next video since several people want me to show it.
Another great FlossTube! I have a friend who never loaned out her clothes: personal preference; it’s good that you shared your policy so that no one takes it personally!
My husband has made scroll rod pieces for me and I've struggled with the twill tape and staple gun. Brilliant idea to use wood glue and wax paper to hold it while drying. I love your MacGyver ideas! I agree with your thoughts on not loaning out charts. Like so many other commenters, I've lost books and charts to friends. I enjoyed the continuation of the B charts. I added only 2 charts to my 123 Stitch wishlist this episode. haha
Another interesting video! I agree with you about not loaning your charts and I wouldn't do it either. There you were saying you don't like stitching on perforated paper and I was doing just that! I'm working on Halloween ornaments by Satsuma Street. Your new frame screamed Halloween to me. If it was mine I would paint it black and antique it...what a great find. Thanks for sharing. Deanna H.
Enjoyed the visit! I have to say I don’t care for people that ask for patterns ! I think you handled it fine !! See you next time 😊.
Thanks , Kim T☀️
Your cool frame is calling out for either the evil Queen or the spooky guy in the mirror from Snow White. Lol
Wonderful flosstube as usual. I agree with not loaning out your charts. I would not do it either. I will never understand the copyright issue on OOP charts. Looking forward to your next video.
I am doing Sampler September. Samplers are my favorite.
I so enjoy looking at all your charts and would love to see a demo on how you stitch watching the vertical thread. I always look forward to learning from the pros,
Thanks Maureen. I'll include a quick tutorial on that in and upcoming video. Thanks for watching.
Linen and Scraps flosstube used a gold rub on a block that would be awesome on that beautiful frame! Love your videos, thank you 😊
That would be nice. Thanks for the idea.
I would love to see the "vertical thread" thing. I don't know why designers would retire a chart completely as opposed to maybe making them PDF charts. Sure would solve a lot of the black market sales. Ever since you showed your Lady of the Flag I can't get it out of my head how much I want to stitch her. I do know I'm not paying $150 to do it. Thank you for sharing your chart stash. I look forward to your videos.
New channel I have been watching is Cissy's Gentle Pursuit Design. she does reproduction samplers so many beautiful ones. I have loved seeing the charts. Your Samplers are beautiful the one your almost done with.....wow I love it. your fur babies so pretty.
That beautiful frame you have I thought Evanora bewitching Pixie by Nora Corbett it is just a witches head with hat but lacy. or maybe Midnight Ride sampler from Blackbird designs it is a blackbird with a Witches hat on it. Love Love that frame it is a awesome find vary rare he did good. the box too. and that broom is cool.
Thanks Laura, I'll have to check out her flosstube. That frame makes me think of Halloween also.
Enjoy seeing your WIPs and your pattern collection. I'll be stitching the Modern Folk Embroidery 2022 SAL September release and Mighty Acorn from Blackbird, and maybe another new start to reward myself! I agree about loaning out patterns. I lost a pattern when a co-worker transferred, and his wife had a pattern of mine...never got the pattern back even after emailing, etc.
So aggravating when that happens. You kind of hate to keep asking and they know they have it.
I'll be at the Galleria the end of the month - my first stitching event. Would love to meet you in person, if possible. Your fur babies are absolutely precious!
Hi Deborah, I'm not sure what day we will be going. I'm thinking about the 1st day. I'd love to meet you in person. It's always fun to put a face with a name. I'll get back with you about when we will be there.
I agree with you about OOP charts ... it makes no sense to me especially if the demand is there to re-release the charts .. why would you rather have third parties make a pile of money off of resales. No need to apologize for preferring not to loan your charts. Totally understand why you would want to protect your awesome collection!
Just love your videos and your work!
About the lending of charts, and copies. I used to stitch in the 1990’s, then there was close to 30 years I didn’t, so of course I missed out on a lot of great charts. When I see one in a video I do my research to see if it’s out of print or still available. If I find a copy, that is reasonably priced I’ll buy it. This that a inflated pricing, well not getting my few Pennie’s. No chart is worth it. And though I’ll keep looking for a reasonably priced copy. I use working copies of my charts and when I’m done stitching it I shred the copy. I would lend a copy to a person I know, and see often, but not a stranger. If designers were smart they’d offer older charts a PDFs and reprints. But that’s their decision. It’s their refusal that has created those outrageously priced charts. There are new stitches all the time that have never seen some charts. If I find a website for a out of print chart I’ll contact the designer to see if the have any plans to re-release a chart, and let them know there are stitchers out here that would still be interested in their chart.
Thank you for commenting. I totally agree with you. I won't pay an outrageous price either.
That would be nice if you did a stitch-a-long segment on your next video to demonstrate the technique you explained. I am working on finishing some autumn stitching.
I can see by comments I'll be adding a stitching tutorial to an upcoming video. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for the opportunity to see you, your pups and your projects. For Sampler September my WIP is His Eye is on the Sparrow (maybe 35% done) I would love for it to be a FFO by December. I really try to stitch faster , just can't! Cindy
I have Consider the Lilies in the works and have His eye is on the sparrow but I haven't started it.
@@thenightlystitcher I love them both!
Hi Dena, I write the count and name of my fabric in the salvage edge or as close to the edge as I can get with a permanent marker. That way I know what fabric is what and don’t have to worry about losing tags. This might work for you or not.
Oh that's a good idea! I'll start doing that. Except I will still have some mystery fabric, but that's ok. I never really needed to know until I started flosstube. I know the count because I keep it in separate drawers.
Great video, thank you so much. So interesting. However, confession time.....Hannah and Tootie had my attention (sorry!). They're just adorable! I promise to pay more attention next time:) xxx
Thank you for sharing. Yes, I understand about lending patterns. It would be nice if you could share with us on how to stitch over one. God Bless.
Thanks, I'll be adding a tutorial for stitching over one and also stitching by watching the vertical thread on an upcoming video.
I'm working on Halloween Quaker and HODs Costume Party. Thank you for sharing!
I love Halloween quaker.
It’s not a reproduction sampler but I’m working on Bear and Moose by Jean Farish as a remembrance of my trip to Alaska!
I had planned to participate, but my brother passed away unexpectedly, so I’m packing up to head to Colorado and I have no idea how long I’ll be there. Since all my samplers are big I can’t take them. I’ll be taking a couple little patterns I’ve got ready to start. The big guys will have to wait.
So sorry to hear about your brother. Condolences to your family. Even though you can't take your big stitching at least you'll have something to stitch. Safe travel!
I love your videos, totally understand not lending patterns. Your pattern stash is amazing! I love love your dogs!!! And am dying to know who chirps in the background
I have an obnoxious zebra finch! Sorry about that. He will be moving to the bathroom during videos.
@@thenightlystitcher oh no!! Please don’t move him!! It’s not a bother, I used to have an African Grey who was a chatterbox, I think it’s cute!
It is so nice to meet Hannah! She is beautiful! It is so sweet the way they give you kisses. Tootie has such a personality. I find myself watching her and then I have to go back and take a second look at what you were showing us. Ha Ha. You are a woman after my own heart. I don't understand this copy write or out of print thing either. It just doesn't make any sense to me. Thanks for a great video and have a great day!
I don’t blame you for not lending out your patterns. These days you don’t know who to trust. Your doggies are so cute.
Like your videos, but I’m curious what that noise is in the background. I can’t tell if is is a bird, some sort of alarm or what. Just curious. LOL. Would like to see how to stitch over one. My threads always slip. I not participating in Sampler September. I usually stitch Halloween in September but not sure which ones I’ll stitch.
I have a finch and I'm so sorry it was so noisy. I am so use to it I never noticed it until I played back the video. I'm going to move it to the bathroom next time. I will be doing a tutorial for stitching over 1 thread on an upcoming video. I also love stitching Halloween.
@@thenightlystitcher I thought your finch was a squeaky toy one of the dogs was playing with. 🤣 I hope you don't move your finch for us. The dogs and the finch are just uniquely part of you and your videos!
Yes agree the noise was distracting I tried muting and doing closed captions but struggled watching this one
@@thenightlystitcher thanks it was distracting
For that tray I would just sand off any loose burnt stuff, fill the space in with some wood filler then sand, and after that prime and paint. Maybe just give the frame a good cleaning first then decide what it needs. I wouldn't loan out charts either. I have loan books out over the years and never got them back. I with you on the "rules" about copying charts especially out of print ones. Question - what is that squeaking noise? Do you have a bird or is that a squeeky toy the dogs are playing with?
Hi Patty, I have 1 zebra finch and I don't really notice it most of the time. We're just use to the sound. I didn't notice it being so loud until I have recorded and was playing it back. It is getting put in the bathroom next time
@@thenightlystitcher Mystery solved! 🤣😂
How do you find the new Expo charts?
I just see them on instagram mostly. Cobweb corner is showing alot of them not that expo is over. You can probably check needlework websites for them too.
Hi Deana great video wonderful projects September is my birthday month,going to start yellow submarine by blackbird,love your dogs so cute,have a good week Thankyou for sharing 👍🪡🇳🇿
Happy upcoming Birthday Donna. My husband's is Sept. 27th. Thanks for watching.
@@thenightlystitcher Thankyou my Birthday is the 18th happy birthday to your husband🎂
@@donnabennett5106 thank you.
Not sure, but I think Kitten Stitcher started Sampler September.
Thanks Julie!
I just typed in Kitten Stitcher Sampler September and it WAS her who started it in 2019.
