The RUclips algorithms led me to your channel a few days ago and I was hooked. I’ve been binge watching…even got on the Attic's waiting list for 2023 Summer School. I really enjoy watching the two of you. I am a cross stitcher that stitch patterns from xs-collectibles. Their patterns are 45 pages long and it takes over 6 months to finish. I have never been exposed to the patterns that you love. It is like going shopping with everything explained to me.
Love watching y’all for the good first time, I had embroidered when I was a young teenager with my mamaw but haven’t got years. I make cards, some scrapbook and paper crafts. I starting cross stitching and quilting.
Watching your video for the first time. I am blown away by your enthusiasm and passion for stitching. I have been a stitcher off and on for 30+ years. I thought it was a dying hobby until I found flosstube. I am so inspired and have picked up where I left off on my stitching projects. I would love to get more involved but live in Alabama. Not sure there is much activity in the world of stitching in our state. Thanks so much for all your inspiration! I am blown away by all the wonderful stitch artists and wonderful patterns! Just gotta figure out which project I want to work on next! Thanks again ladies!
Thank you Tracey!!!! I bet there are a lot of stitchers in Alabama! Google where the closest cross stitch shop is to you...maybe it is close and then you can really get nutty! Happy Stitching!
Hello, dear friends. What a joy this was! The stitching is phenomenal, but the friendship has a beauty that is priceless. Laura, I am so sorry about the Diet Coke mishap, but I certainly think I qualify to watch the outtake as I toast you every time I open a Diet Coke. The chicken quilt is a treasure and another testament to the community we are so privileged to be a part of as stitchers. Brenda, the shoutout was ever generous, and very appreciated. You both are the foundation that supports us all and you pull it off with grace and humility. I never want your videos to end and look forward to the next one eagerly. Love you both.
Hi Friends! We can’t have you in trouble with the FlossTube police, but it sure would be fun to watch take one.😂 I agree with Sarah, every time we crack open a carbonated beverage there should be a toast to Laura and the honest response at a spill. The chicken quilt is just a treasure. ❤ Brenda, your finishes are just lovely. Have a great time at Bristol. Please give Jean a big hug and kiss for me. I hope to come again soon. Dad is getting along with a walker but still needing daily nursing assistance. Such delightful inspiration from you both in charts and ideas. I agree with Brenda too that Dirty Tea Cup is the best choice. You too are just delightful and bring so much inspiration to this community of stitchers. Love and hugs to you both. ❤ Teresa
Thank you Brenda, thank you Laura for another great video! Your stitching and friendship is so awesome! I am blessed to be a part of this camaraderie through your sharing! ❤️
Once upon a time the was a girl in Ohio who liked stitching, but most she liked watching Laura and Brenda. Every other Sunday was like walking in a magical world of Stitchland where she can get inspired and amazed by the talent and friendship of two wonderful stitchy fairies. Thank you so much for sharing your love and passion to stitching and spreading kindness in our world.🪡🧵💕
No drinks without lids on the table! Just like on the computer desk! You guys are so funny. Thank you for sharing for creativity and your humor with us.
You two are a treasure and I cannot tell you how much I enjoy your back and forth banter, your lovely stitching, your wips, your haul, and all of it!! So glad to have found flosstube, I so wish I had a stitchy friend here in rural southeast Iowa. Thank you for being real, and I love your framed sampler Brenda, your red Bristol sampler Laura and the fact that you love racing, I do too! If I could find a cross stitching horse loving trailrider, I think I would be in heaven! 😆That quilt is just beautiful! 💗
Thanks ladies love love as always, not sure why some folk can't be kind, this is our safe space . We really appreciate all the work you put in to share with us xx. On Holiday in Sunny Highland Scotland stitching and watching wish you were here xxx
Another wonderful stitching session with you lovely ladies! I'm always left with a smile on my face and a couple notes to get this or that! Dirty Teacup is absolutely perfect for so many projects it's tempting to want to use it for everything. I'm trying to do my own fabric of the month club... I just buy something that I long to hoard... and if it was abundant, I would buy DT every time. So many pretties in the way of textile collecting, and that quilt is above and beyond beautiful! You are both loved so much. Thank you for being there for us!🌹🌹🌹
Wow! Another great episode! All your WIP’s are beautiful and your enabling, again, had me writing down lots of beautiful stitchy eye candy. The chicken quilt is a beauty! Keep sharing all your stitching and kindness. Looking forward to the next episode.
Thank God you girls are back! I have missed watching you two! Brenda, I am so sorry someone had anything negative to say about you! I can only imagine how very miserable that person’s life must be to inflict negativity on someone else. Ignore them because we all love you both! Laura, what a perfect gift you received! This community is awesome! I wish I had the money and skills to do something as incredible for you both. Have fun on your cross stitch camp. I know Laura will be missed. Love you both!
Thank you SO much for a lovely shout out for my Floss Tube channel. I’m really excited about it and the positive response I have received. Thanks again . You ladies did a great Floss Tube as usual ! ❤
Thank you another wonderful video ladies! Ive missed watching you! I would have loved to see the pop outtake, bet it was hilarious! 😄Thank you for showing your WIPs, they are a real treasure! Love the chicken quilt, an absolute treasure! Looking forward to your next video.🌷Have a wonderful week!🌻Happy Stitching!♥ Hugs!
😂😂😂 I mean, thank you for starting over. I still watch you with my kids. 😅 Love seeing everything! I'm sorry you're not stitching that one piece anymore. It looked beautiful! That deer was amazing. ❤
I would like to thank you Brenda for your courage and positive outlook while going through your cancer treatment. I have been recently diagnosed with breast cancer and almost had a meltdown! I thought of you and said to myself, keep your chin up, do all you can, pray and keep those needles going! Brenda was strong, I can be strong! Thanks Brenda!
We are sending you all the positive vibes in the world! I agree, Brenda was a rock star when she went through treatment. She is a very inspiring person all the way around and I know it will mean a lot to her to read your lovely comment. Stay Strong! and lean on those around you for comfort too. Sending lots of love!!
Between all the stitchy goodness and that beautiful quilt, this was the best time. Brenda have a wonderful time on your trip. Laura, all I can say is, been there, done that!!! 😂 I would not be offended by the blooper segment, but totally understand your not posting it. Very respectful of you both. But, we already know you guys are amazing!!
You two brought tears to my eyes! What a wonderful friendship you have. Brenda, I agree with you. Stitching should be enjoyable! People need to relax and be kind to each other. There is no room for rude or nasty comments in our wonderful stitching community ❤❤
Oh my! I can’t believe that Brenda got negativity sent her way. Why? Since Covid I have been stitching and marveling at the amazing sense of community that is the cross stitch world that I haven’t seen in other craft groups. Recently things have seemed to take a bit of a turn on social media. Carol Whitchurch has said the same thing. Thank you for reminding everyone that this is a family and that this type of behavior is not appropriate. Thank you for all you two do in support of all of us stitchers. I have cried, laughed until I have peed and been inspired by you two. Stitch on! I need you here. ❤
Such a good video! Loved seeing all the stitchy stuff! Thanks for keeping me company as I pieced a memory quilt from my Dad's plaid shirts. The chicken quilt is amazng. I saw it on Stitching with the Sisterlies too.
Hi Ladies! So good to see your smiling faces! Such a fun video and many things to see. I hope you are having a blast at the Attic, Brenda! Excited to hear you are going to Jacob Fest, Laura! How fun! Happy stitching to you both!!! 🪡🧵🪡✂️✂️✂️🌼🌺🌸🇺🇸💕💕💕
We hope that you are feeling better as soon as possible Valerie! Keep on taking those steps so that you can recover fully. We are sending lots of love and hugs!!!
So glad you two are back after a 4-week hiatus. I was going through withdrawal. 😂 And ladies, I want to confirm that stitching with Cosmo white floss is so much better than the DMC white. Stitching a snowman on aida was the ultimate proof that Cosmo floss lays nicely without issues. Thought I'd pass it on.
Oh my gosh you brought chills to me several times in this video! When Laura just out of the blue gave Brenda the BBD club kit I almost cried. You two are such a delight to watch! Thank you so much for sharing ♥️♥️ PS I can’t imagine any bad words from either of you😂
You two always brighten my day when I get the notification of a new video!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE your friendship, your fun and laughter, your enthusiastic love of stitching and people, but most of all you two just being you. As for the mean people that lack respect, love to hide behind social media and say stupid crap, please go away. MOVE ON. You are in the wrong place if you have to say something negative, especially anything about two of the sweetest, funniest people EVER! Okay now ----Another great video, ladies and can't wait until the next one. And thanks for all the great shout outs of floss tubers to watch!!! Oh Brenda - love you glasses too! Take care, ignore the trolls and know that almost 20 thousand subscribers love you.
Hi ladies. I loved all the stitching and stitching stuff today. I agree and was always taught that if you can't say someting nice, don't say anything at all.
A great suggestion from our wonderful community is to use chapstick on dry rough skin around the nails. I am amazed at how well it works. Your blooper video is going to generate lots of speculation. You my as well show it! You guys are fabulous❣️
Thank you Donna!!!!! Yes, that chapstick idea is good! The blooper reel so far just shows some naughty swearing! That is the only time that we have had to stop filming a floss tube! Rats!
Have fun on your trip Brenda! Need to get Laura a Tervis or Yeti cup for her Diet Coke. Beautiful stitching by both of you. You both always brighten my day.
I so enjoyed your long catch-up video. It was like a cozy visit with friends. You always make me want to “stitch it all. Just FYI, my 15th grandchild, who was born in February, has bright, dark-red hair, and is named Moira.❤ 😀
I love watching you guys!!! Brenda, I hate that someone would be so ill-mannered and ignorant to make rude comments to either one of you! Ignore the beasts! I love your collecting and your hauls. I'm happy that you can afford to obtain so many treasures; I live vicariously through you! Laura, I lose control of my drinks and sometimes my mouth on a regular basis. You girls just be you! That's the way we love you!
Brenda, so great to see you at Bristol 3. Laura, love your t-shirt. After chatting with some Phoenix stitchers this past weekend I feel sort of motivated to resurrect our dormant Chicago stitching group. Finding a regular meeting place is my new goal for the summer. See you in August, if not sooner! xx
Hi, Brenda and Laura - always fun to see you back on RUclips. Brenda, years ago there was an extensive blog on a needlework channel - Mary Corbet- about rough hands and problems with silk. The consensus was a brand called Du’it called Tough Hands. I tried it and it solved my problems, and I never had another issue. This cream has active ingredients (Lactic acid and urea) and is fairly widely available at drugstores in the US, but I was extremely surprised and gratified to see that it is an Australian brand. Give it a go, and let me know how you find it. It’s not expensive. The tube for men is twice the size but costs the same as the elegant smaller tube for women. All the best, Kate
Laura do you know if the chart for the Cedar Waxing by Not Forgotten Farm is available to purchase and where it might be available? Thank you in advance. Love you two!
What a joyful surprise and delight to see your video today!!! I will never understand the need to leave unkind comments ever, but most certainly not on a stitching post! I am so sorry that happened. Laura, your EM red sampler is beautiful! What treasures you found Brenda!!! Oh, that chicken quilt is incredible!!!!! What a treasure! Thanks as always ladies! Have an amazing time at The Attic! Happy stitching!
I love you both. Can't get enough. Brenda don't waste another thought in that pretty little head of yours on those nasty you know whats out there. They don't deserve your time. I love your collections 💟. You and Laura are two very precious ladies. Wish I lived near you and could visit with big hugs.
Hello. I'm sorry to hear you had a run in with a rude person, saying hateful things. You are both such a joy to watch. Don't let anyone steal - or tarnish - your happiness. Thank you for sharing all that you do. I'm inspired by each episode! love to you both.
What a lovely video to watch and all the beautiful stitching that you both are going to do! With the paper journal - I have a chart from Heaven and Earth Designs of the girl in the second row stitching in the garden with a black and white dog at her feet and hope to start her soon.
Nice to see you again. Laura, I started Miss MaryAnn Bourne last summer but haven't gotten very far. I started in the middle on mine with the bee skep. Brenda, I know it's easier said than done but don't let that negative person stop you from doing what makes you happy. Have fun at the Attic! Take care!
@@brendaandtheserialstarter2410 Oh I get tired of it quickly and I have worked myself to where I can work on the flowers below it. I'll work on the bee skep, do something else and repeat.
Everything was amazing. The quilt is gorgeous. My theory on rude and mean commenters is they are unhappy in their lives so they want to make others unhappy. Kindness is so easy to do. They should try kindness. They will feel better. I would love to see the clip of Laura . ❤️❤️❤️
Oh wow! Everything you both showed was wonderful! Laura, I too have been collecting since about the 60’s. I have all kinds, mechanical, leather, silk, feathers, signed by the artist, Tucks etc. dates from 1890’s - 1950’s or so. I’ve have over 2,000+. I can’t wait for the next visit with you both. Enjoy your stitching! ❤
You’re with Indy like I am nascar cup. I grew up with and their kids lol great finish and wips. Thx for visiting. Fir queen of the may corn tassel will look good. I’m using Alcott by needle n flax
Y’all just crack me up! Such a beautiful friendship! And so much stitchy goodness to see. We do need to be kind to everyone! You never know what they are going through. The Chicken Salad quilt is amazing. It does take a little time to trace, fuse, and cut the appliqué but the creative process is very rewarding. Brenda, have a great time at The Attic. Nicola and Cathe are kicking Sarah Rinder just before the Bristol event starts. Safe travels and Happy stitching!
Wow, there is so much info....love it!! Fabulous quilt as well.....wow again!! Fabulous long show today. I had better get going and doing some housework.......LOL........not!!
I love that you get to consult with each other over your projects. Do you do consults with you audience?? I would so love to be able to consult with someone. I so enjoyed this video. You were both in rare form. Thank you so much for your sharing and wonderful ideas. Oh yes, Laura, the quilt was fabulous!! My sister is a great quilter and she has a chicken quilt that I absolutely love. Happy Stitching!
Brenda, I was having a terrible time with the skin on my fingers-- especially my thumbs and index fingers. It seemed the more I stitched and the more creams and ointments and all-night gloves I tried, the worse it got! My daughter has had a severe nickel allergy all her life (she can't even wear jeans because the back of the snap/button causes a horrible dry, red, scaly rash on her tummy!) I decided to experiment and I started with John James gold because I like petite needles. My fingers improved *immediately.* But after using a needle for a few days, the peeling fingers would start up again. I finally found "Pony blacks." They are stainless steel and tgey are actually black with a white eye. My only gripes are 1. They don't make petites and 2. The size 28s were out of production for a while so thet size only becomes available in the US sporadically. I order mine Online from a company called Maydel in Chicago and the arrive quickly. I'm so happy to work with silk again! I'm not saying this *is* the problem for you, but it might be worth trying and see if it helps.
Loving your floss tube look forward to it every time. Totally agree with you about sherry colorado stitcher. And Anna was my first you tube .she started my addiction. Have fun at the attic brenda
WOW fabulous and Beautiful! Loved the whole video. Those postcards are something right out of national history. They are a gem just like the both of you!
So nice to spend time stitching with you! Don’t we all wish we had Brenda available for consultations! When Laura showed her Kingsford piece, I shouted at the screen “But it’s almost done!” even before Brenda said it. I’ve looked at those Hillside Rookery kits and I’m very tempted - that Birdy is darling! I think Brenda’s “morbid book” is actually a very good idea. I always put a label on my framed pieces, but that doesn’t give any indication of the meaning of the piece. Brenda, I’m sure you will have a wonderful time at the Attic. Thank you both for your flosstube recommendations. I don’t know when I’m going to get around to watching Ted Lasso, I have so many flosstubes to watch!
You two are always so much fun, and informative to watch! Thank you both for another great video. I guess those trolls never heard of the Golden Rule “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.”
I have had to almost use a box of Kleenex!😂 You had me rolling! Brenda have a wonderful time.Looking forward to hearing all about it. Laura 😂I got to watch Colleen working on your quilt! You are a lucky girl! Congratulations. It is beautiful Have a great week!
So happy to see you again!! You two are a pleasure. Thank you for the Flosstube recommendations; I have found some new things to watch! Brenda, have a safe trip to the Attic, and Laura, looking forward to seeing your progress!
Great video as always. Can you ‘imagine’ our world of many communities if they were all like the stitching community?! And all friendships as cherished as yours! Imagine!
Love you gals! You bring joy and that’s what we all need. Brenda, your stitching related collection is so important not just for you but all of us today and those of tomorrow. Thank you both. ❤️🇦🇺
Hi Brenda and Laura! I was eagerly awaiting your floss tube it seemed so long since your last visit with me, Laura I hope you’re recovered from your spill! Brenda I truly feel for you I can’t believe someone could be nasty to you, I so look forward to your lovely warm personality coming into my home with Laura every couple of weeks or so it truly brightens my day and I hope you can feel the warmth from the greater community you both brighten my life thank you God Bless you both!
Ohhh, a Diet Coke mishap. I’m so sorry. I think you need to save the outtakes and do a video at the end of the year with those! (I would have many many outtakes for mine …) Thank you so much for the shoutout and the mention of Cross Stitch Camp. You two are the best. And I’m so glad I get to see you this week, Brenda! -Sheri P.S. I was also keeping an eye on that Buon Appetito piece on eBay. I’m glad you got it!
Great projects, haul, & other stash. Laura, you are SO lucky to have that quilt, how generous of Colleen. Brenda, I hope you have a blast at The Attic! I know you will! Marilyn
Hey, Girls! I am so looking forward to being with you this week, Brenda, at Bristol III, but we will miss you, Laura! What a great haul today! Such fun. Love to you both. 💕
I was so happy to see you had a new video. I missed you! Brenda, your antique linens are wonderful and Laura's quilt is amazing. I hope you have a great trip to the Attic and I can't wait to see your next video.
As always, thanks for the laughs! There is always laughter and fun watching you two! I love those Little Robin Designs , Little Liberty's! I definitely want to start Every Opening Flower, STAT! There is so much joy in stitching and I love all the gorgeous things you both collect! Do what makes you happy and gives you joy! Refuse to let the negative enter your hearts.
Oh Laura, what an absolute treasure to receive that chicken salad quilt!!! Thanks for a wonderful video to stitch along to, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Take care sweet ladies!!❤
Amazing!! All of your episodes are sincerely inspirational, but this one….ahhhhh!!! got my right into my soul❤️ I’ve no stitchy friends, no LNS, and lives on a rock…lol but you and other flosstubers are sufficient! I thank-you for sharing all the things!! Newfoundland 🇨🇦
I have missed you ladies and am so very happy you are back. Nothing but positive vibes from me. Love the show & tell. Instead of cross stitching today I have been English Paper Piecing while watching your video. Just love the needle arts!

Stitching a snowman on aida was the ultimate proof that Cosmo floss lays nicely without issues. Thought I'd pass it on.
Thank you for that tip!!!! We need to procure some Cosmo!!! Thanks Michelle!
Oh my gosh you brought chills to me several times in this video! When Laura just out of the blue gave Brenda the BBD club kit I almost cried. You two are such a delight to watch! Thank you so much for sharing ♥️♥️ PS I can’t imagine any bad words from either of you😂
Thank you Christina!!!!!! (the truth is better left unsaid about the bad words.....)
Omg! My stitchy list keeps growing… I’m definitely taking after Laura!
Thanks Cyndi!!!! I am glad to have some company in this matter!
You two always brighten my day when I get the notification of a new video!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE your friendship, your fun and laughter, your enthusiastic love of stitching and people, but most of all you two just being you. As for the mean people that lack respect, love to hide behind social media and say stupid crap, please go away. MOVE ON. You are in the wrong place if you have to say something negative, especially anything about two of the sweetest, funniest people EVER! Okay now ----Another great video, ladies and can't wait until the next one. And thanks for all the great shout outs of floss tubers to watch!!! Oh Brenda - love you glasses too! Take care, ignore the trolls and know that almost 20 thousand subscribers love you.
Thank you so so much Beth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Your comments really warm our souls!
Hi ladies. I loved all the stitching and stitching stuff today. I agree and was always taught that if you can't say someting nice, don't say anything at all.
Thank you Deborah!!!
A great suggestion from our wonderful community is to use chapstick on dry rough skin around the nails. I am amazed at how well it works. Your blooper video is going to generate lots of speculation. You my as well show it! You guys are fabulous❣️
Thank you Donna!!!!! Yes, that chapstick idea is good! The blooper reel so far just shows some naughty swearing! That is the only time that we have had to stop filming a floss tube! Rats!
As always you two are so enjoyable! Love Live Laura’s shirt and that chicken salad quilt is Aaamazing!
Thank you Tracy!!
Brenda, I love your cross necklace! The cross of Christ makes the difference!
Thank you Lori!
You ladies are a delight. The Diet Coke incident references were hilarious. So much beautiful inspiration, as always.
Thank you Emmy Rose!!!
This video was so fun I watched it twice! (And took notes. LOL) Laura, excellent shirt choice! I love it! You are two classy ladies. 🙂
Thank you so much Wendy!!!!!
Great video as always! Laura you just make me laugh with your antics!
Thank you Shay! I just wished my antics did not include spilling at Brenda's house!
Love you gals! Have fun at the Attic Brenda! Beautiful gift of love and chickens Laura!
Thank you Karen!
Both you ladies are so sweet. I enjoy watching you and I feel like we are friends. God bless the both of you.
Thank you so much Linda!!!!!
Have fun on your trip Brenda! Need to get Laura a Tervis or Yeti cup for her Diet Coke. Beautiful stitching by both of you. You both always brighten my day.
Thank you so much Katherine!!! Yes, I need to find a cup with a lid. On a mission now!
You two are a joy. Thank you for letting us be part of your amazing friendship. Wonderful, wonderful floss tube. ❤❤❤❤
Thank you very much Laurie!!!
Laura , love the shirt! I have carriage house deer one started !
That is so cool Amanda!!!!!!! Yay!!!
I so enjoyed your long catch-up video. It was like a cozy visit with friends. You always make me want to “stitch it all. Just FYI, my 15th grandchild, who was born in February, has bright, dark-red hair, and is named Moira.❤ 😀
Thank you Linda!!!! and Moira is such a beautiful name!!! Congratulations!
I’m just getting started on the video but wanted to say I LOVE the shirt, Laura!!! ❤❤❤
Thank you Julie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love watching you guys!!! Brenda, I hate that someone would be so ill-mannered and ignorant to make rude comments to either one of you! Ignore the beasts! I love your collecting and your hauls. I'm happy that you can afford to obtain so many treasures; I live vicariously through you! Laura, I lose control of my drinks and sometimes my mouth on a regular basis. You girls just be you! That's the way we love you!
Thank you so much Jan!!!!!! We appreciate the kind support!
Brenda, so great to see you at Bristol 3. Laura, love your t-shirt. After chatting with some Phoenix stitchers this past weekend I feel sort of motivated to resurrect our dormant Chicago stitching group. Finding a regular meeting place is my new goal for the summer. See you in August, if not sooner! xx
Tricia - That would be wonderful! Please keep us in the loop:) Brenda
Hi, Brenda and Laura - always fun to see you back on RUclips. Brenda, years ago there was an extensive blog on a needlework channel - Mary Corbet- about rough hands and problems with silk. The consensus was a brand called Du’it called Tough Hands. I tried it and it solved my problems, and I never had another issue. This cream has active ingredients (Lactic acid and urea) and is fairly widely available at drugstores in the US, but I was extremely surprised and gratified to see that it is an Australian brand. Give it a go, and let me know how you find it. It’s not expensive. The tube for men is twice the size but costs the same as the elegant smaller tube for women. All the best, Kate
We shall be on the lookout for Du'it Kate!!!!!!!!!!!!! And if it is Australian...all the better! Thank you!!!!!
Laura, I love that you made Amazon a verb. "Did you Amazon that?" Haha. Great show girls . Always fun.
Hah!!! That is funny as a verb! Thank you Jan!
Laura do you know if the chart for the Cedar Waxing by Not Forgotten Farm is available to purchase and where it might be available? Thank you in advance. Love you two!
Pressed pause to say I love your shirt Laura!!
Thank you Amie!!
I love to see all the projects you both have. I am leaning towards smaller projects right now but I still love to look at all the biggies you show!!
Thank you Susan!!!!! We love all the projects...big and small!!!! But something about those big ones just calls to us!
“For the ten stitches I do at a retreat…”❤ 😂 This had me laughing so hard as I totally get it!
I mean!!!!! We sure don't go to a retreat just to stitch right Leslie!
“You need that.” You guys crack me up. 😊
I bet you needed it too Jo!!!!! We all need it all!!! 😍😀😃🤪😝🤑
I’m new to cross stitch. Still working on my first project. 😊
What a joyful surprise and delight to see your video today!!! I will never understand the need to leave unkind comments ever, but most certainly not on a stitching post! I am so sorry that happened.
Laura, your EM red sampler is beautiful! What treasures you found Brenda!!! Oh, that chicken quilt is incredible!!!!! What a treasure! Thanks as always ladies! Have an amazing time at The Attic! Happy stitching!
Thank you so much Wanda!!!!!
You tell them, Brenda! You put nothing but joy and love into the world with your flosstubes and deserve nothing but joy and love back!
Thank you so much Danielle!
I love you both. Can't get enough. Brenda don't waste another thought in that pretty little head of yours on those nasty you know whats out there. They don't deserve your time. I love your collections 💟. You and Laura are two very precious ladies. Wish I lived near you and could visit with big hugs.
Thank you so much Helen!!! We are sending hugs back to you!
Hello. I'm sorry to hear you had a run in with a rude person, saying hateful things. You are both such a joy to watch. Don't let anyone steal - or tarnish - your happiness. Thank you for sharing all that you do. I'm inspired by each episode! love to you both.
Thank you so much Lisa!!!
What a lovely video to watch and all the beautiful stitching that you both are going to do!
With the paper journal - I have a chart from Heaven and Earth Designs of the girl in the second row stitching in the garden with a black and white dog at her feet and hope to start her soon.
Thank you Lucinda! Hope you get to start that project soon!!
Nice to see you again. Laura, I started Miss MaryAnn Bourne last summer but haven't gotten very far. I started in the middle on mine with the bee skep. Brenda, I know it's easier said than done but don't let that negative person stop you from doing what makes you happy. Have fun at the Attic! Take care!
Thank you Mary Ann! That was pretty smart to start in the middle with the bee skep!!! That looks like fun to stitch!!!!
@@brendaandtheserialstarter2410 Oh I get tired of it quickly and I have worked myself to where I can work on the flowers below it. I'll work on the bee skep, do something else and repeat.
Always fun visiting!!
Thank you for stopping by Patti!
Everything was amazing. The quilt is gorgeous. My theory on rude and mean commenters is they are unhappy in their lives so they want to make others unhappy. Kindness is so easy to do. They should try kindness. They will feel better. I would love to see the clip of Laura . ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks Nancy!!!! That clip would be banned from regular TV and You Tube!
So so happy to have my Brenda and Laura time!! Whoo hoo thanks !!!
Thank you Renee!
Oh wow! Everything you both showed was wonderful! Laura, I too have been collecting since about the 60’s. I have all kinds, mechanical, leather, silk, feathers, signed by the artist, Tucks etc. dates from 1890’s - 1950’s or so. I’ve have over 2,000+. I can’t wait for the next visit with you both. Enjoy your stitching! ❤
Thank you Caryl! Your postcard collection sounds amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!! They are such beautiful things!!!
You’re with Indy like I am nascar cup. I grew up with and their kids lol great finish and wips. Thx for visiting. Fir queen of the may corn tassel will look good. I’m using Alcott by needle n flax
Y’all just crack me up! Such a beautiful friendship! And so much stitchy goodness to see. We do need to be kind to everyone! You never know what they are going through. The Chicken Salad quilt is amazing. It does take a little time to trace, fuse, and cut the appliqué but the creative process is very rewarding. Brenda, have a great time at The Attic. Nicola and Cathe are kicking Sarah Rinder just before the Bristol event starts. Safe travels and Happy stitching!
Thank you so much Deborah!!!!!!
Wow, there is so much info....love it!! Fabulous quilt as well.....wow again!! Fabulous long show today. I had better get going and doing some housework.......LOL........not!!
Thank you Hanna! Housework can wait until.........whenever!
@@brendaandtheserialstarter2410 Yes indeed....LOL
I love that you get to consult with each other over your projects. Do you do consults with you audience?? I would so love to be able to consult with someone. I so enjoyed this video. You were both in rare form. Thank you so much for your sharing and wonderful ideas. Oh yes, Laura, the quilt was fabulous!! My sister is a great quilter and she has a chicken quilt that I absolutely love. Happy Stitching!
Thank you Virginia!!!!! A show with consults would be so cool.....if we ever learn how to edit clips together maybe we can do that!
Brenda, I was having a terrible time with the skin on my fingers-- especially my thumbs and index fingers. It seemed the more I stitched and the more creams and ointments and all-night gloves I tried, the worse it got!
My daughter has had a severe nickel allergy all her life (she can't even wear jeans because the back of the snap/button causes a horrible dry, red, scaly rash on her tummy!) I decided to experiment and I started with John James gold because I like petite needles. My fingers improved *immediately.* But after using a needle for a few days, the peeling fingers would start up again. I finally found "Pony blacks." They are stainless steel and tgey are actually black with a white eye. My only gripes are 1. They don't make petites and 2. The size 28s were out of production for a while so thet size only becomes available in the US sporadically. I order mine Online from a company called Maydel in Chicago and the arrive quickly. I'm so happy to work with silk again! I'm not saying this *is* the problem for you, but it might be worth trying and see if it helps.
Thank you so much for this great tip! I know Brenda will see it when she reads through the comments!!!! Checking out that website for sure!
Loving your floss tube look forward to it every time. Totally agree with you about sherry colorado stitcher. And Anna was my first you tube .she started my addiction. Have fun at the attic brenda
Thank you Maureen!!!!!
WOW fabulous and Beautiful! Loved the whole video. Those postcards are something right out of national history. They are a gem just like the both of you!
Thank you very much Renee!!!
I have wanted to stitch Mary Elizabeth Kingsford for years. I love that chart.
Sandra....word on the street is that Olivia B (Hillside Rookery on Etsy) will have an NPI pack for it soon!!!!!
So nice to spend time stitching with you! Don’t we all wish we had Brenda available for consultations! When Laura showed her Kingsford piece, I shouted at the screen “But it’s almost done!” even before Brenda said it. I’ve looked at those Hillside Rookery kits and I’m very tempted - that Birdy is darling! I think Brenda’s “morbid book” is actually a very good idea. I always put a label on my framed pieces, but that doesn’t give any indication of the meaning of the piece. Brenda, I’m sure you will have a wonderful time at the Attic. Thank you both for your flosstube recommendations. I don’t know when I’m going to get around to watching Ted Lasso, I have so many flosstubes to watch!
Thank you for all of your fun comments Trudy!!!! Hugs!!!
Just loved every minute!
Thank you Joy!
Missed you both, glad to have this wonderful Flosstube to enjoy during my recovery. That CS Quilt is gorgeous. What a blessing!
Thank you Naomi! We are wishing you a speedy recovery!
You two are always so much fun, and informative to watch! Thank you both for another great video. I guess those trolls never heard of the Golden Rule “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.”
Thank you so much Leslie!!!! and Ben??
@@brendaandtheserialstarter2410 Ben's my 9 year old grandson - he's not so much into watching Flosstube, but I am :o)
So fun to have you back I’m so sorry someone had to have a nasty remark, you’re so fun to watch and uplifting🌺
Thank you so very much!!!
I have had to almost use a box of Kleenex!😂 You had me rolling! Brenda have a wonderful time.Looking forward to hearing all about it. Laura 😂I got to watch Colleen working on your quilt! You are a lucky girl! Congratulations. It is beautiful Have a great week!
You know Colleen???? and you got to watch her make this masterpiece???? That is so wonderful!!!!!! Thank you for watching Barbara!!!!
I have a cat named Flossie Mae that’s sitting at my feet right now while I’m stitching watching you two!!!j
Sending a big hug to Flossie Mae and you Sheila!!! Great cat name!

Great video as always.
Can you ‘imagine’ our world of many communities if they were all like the stitching community?! And all friendships as cherished as yours! Imagine!
We sure would have a more wonderful world that is for sure! Thank you Pat!
Love you gals! You bring joy and that’s what we all need. Brenda, your stitching related collection is so important not just for you but all of us today and those of tomorrow. Thank you both. ❤️🇦🇺
Thank you for your kind words Judy!!!!!
Hi Brenda and Laura! I was eagerly awaiting your floss tube it seemed so long since your last visit with me, Laura I hope you’re recovered from your spill! Brenda I truly feel for you I can’t believe someone could be nasty to you, I so look forward to your lovely warm personality coming into my home with Laura every couple of weeks or so it truly brightens my day and I hope you can feel the warmth from the greater community you both brighten my life thank you God Bless you both!
Thank you so very much Christine! Your words are a comfort!
Ohhh, a Diet Coke mishap. I’m so sorry. I think you need to save the outtakes and do a video at the end of the year with those! (I would have many many outtakes for mine …)
Thank you so much for the shoutout and the mention of Cross Stitch Camp. You two are the best. And I’m so glad I get to see you this week, Brenda!
-Sheri
P.S. I was also keeping an eye on that Buon Appetito piece on eBay. I’m glad you got it!

I have missed you ladies and am so very happy you are back. Nothing but positive vibes from me. Love the show & tell. Instead of cross stitching today I have been English Paper Piecing while watching your video. Just love the needle arts!
Thank you Sally!!! EPP is so beautiful!!! Glad you are doing that!
My favorite Sundays are when I get to watch Brenda and Laura. You two are so much fun.
Thank you so much Joy!!!
