Hi Karen, it is so nice to see someone like you. You don’t talk too fast and I feel like I can relax while watching you!! This is the first time I’ve watched you and I had to subscribe. Please continue to do such a good job ❤️
Live On Little is so beautiful! Every time I see someone stitching it I want to join in. Maybe I should just buy the chart and start it. You always have such lovely pieces.
Hi Jill, thank you so much for your nice comment. I appreciate it so much. You should get the chart, so you have it when the time is right to start it. It is such a beautiful design. Thanks again for your note!
Hello! This is Jacqueline. I just discovered your Flosstube and enjoyed it so much! The things you stitch are so similar to the things I enjoy stitching. We must be kindred spirits. Love your lucky antique finds. I’m looking forward to watching more of your videos.
Karen-wow! Love the idea of the decorative hanger to display your samplers! Genius! Also I didn’t know about that exclusive Mary Findlay 😩 but now it’s a definite purchase-you are such a great enabler!
I’m so glad you enjoyed the video. I’m looking forward to using the Ackfeld stand for a sampler. Couldn’t believe I forgot about it until I unpacked the Quilt Market booth box. 🤦♀️ Isn’t Mary Finley pretty?!? Only 10 colors, but seems like more. I’m thinking of starting her soon. Deciding which linen to use, hard to decide. As far as enabling - I do what I can. 😂😂😂 Thanks so much for your nice note !
I can’t believe you’ve done over 30 videos, and I just now found you! Just the introduction alone makes me want to go back and watch the previous ones as I heal from surgery these coming months. That Live on Little piece is absolutely gorgeous!! ❤️
Hi Christel, thank you so much for your sweet note. I appreciate it so very much! Hoping that you heal quickly and hope the previous videos bring you some enjoyment. :) Thanks again and take care!
Another wonderful video! Thank you for everything you share. I immediately registered for the Zoom class you spoke about. I plan to order the books, too. The Scarlet House exclusive looks lovely. I will have to visit the website. Have a great time at your Retreat!
Thanks, Sharon! So glad you enjoyed the video and thanks so much for your nice note! I’ve also registered for the Zoom webinar. I’m looking forward to it! Thanks again! 🙂
I totally enjoy your flosstube videos. I always learn something. Love the choices you make in patterns and the beautiful pieces you've done and are working on.
I always enjoy seeing the projects you have. I live just out of DC and plan to see the exhibit as soon as hot, touristy summer ends. If you decide to come out to see it I’d love to enjoy it with you. Happy Stitching!
Thanks, Erica! So glad you enjoyed it. I hope you will be able to see the exhibit in-person. It looks amazing! I’ve signed up for the Tuesday Talk next week, so it should be a nice presentation. Thanks again! 🙂
Another wonderful video Karen! Thank you as always for your calm yet enthusiastic sharing. I hope you have a wonderful couple weeks with lots of good stitching progress! 💓
Today is the 4th…..Happy Independence Day! I hope the evening is not too hard on Benji….we used to have a lab that was made so miserable by fireworks. It was pathetic to see. Now we have cats and they seem unbothered. We’re out in the country so I don’t know what will go on around us. We’ll be watching the huge fireworks on TV from DC and NewYork! I loved the visit today. Those two pieces of antique linen are lovely, especially the piece with the beautifully stitched initials. I will look forward to seeing the pillow you’ll be making sometime in the future. I also enjoyed seeing the Ginger and Spice charts….I’d never heard of that company! Neither one appeals to me to work, but they are wonderful! I’m glad you were able to get them. Till next time! Carol in Texas
Hi Karen-I have to tell you that while I was watching your video my husband walked by while you were showing your finished Live on Little piece and all he could say was “wow”! My sentiments exactly. SO beautiful. Another wonderful video. Thank you!🙂
Terrific floss tube! Beautiful stitching and so informative. So many floss tubes are turning into variety shows instead of focusing on stitching and sharing stitching information so thank you for staying true to what I feel floss tube should be about.
I loved the old linen and the beautiful initials. What a delightful find! Thanks for all your sharing. I love to see what you are working on. It is always so inspiring. Thanks for sharing about the wire stands as well. Very cool.
Thanks Virginia, so glad you enjoyed the video and I appreciate your nice note. The antique linen and especially finding the initials was a wonderful surprise. 🙂
I love your videos--each and every one of them. You are so knowledgeable and talented. I have to tell you, too, that I watched your last vido about your quilting life and it really touched my heart. I am one of the older stitchers out here and aside from your tremendous accomplishments, it hit home. I am so grateful for floss tube. Take care and Happy Stitching.
ANOTHER fabulous flosstube video Karen! I've enjoyed every single one you've made. So, I thought it was time to reply & tell you how much I enjoy watching you. Isn't that something else that the linen you'd shown had your mother's initials on! That gave me the chills! It had to be for you to find that right! (I miss my mother something terrible! We were very close as mother and daughter. 🥹 )AND! Especially making it into a pillow. Can't wait to see that. Enjoy your get away! Thank you for all you do! Happy 4th! Where we live we don't have to go anywhere to see the fireworks! Funny right! We can sit out on our deck and enjoy ourselves while watching them! 🥳🎉🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🥰 Take care.
Hi Melanie, thanks so much for your note, I appreciate it so much! 🙂 The linen with the initials was such a surprise to find. As you mentioned, it seems it was meant for me to find it. 🙂🙂 Thanks again!
Love seeing all your projects and haul. The linen you got with your Mom’s initials is beautiful and priceless. Can’t wait to see the pillow. Our two dogs are petrified of fireworks and going to do the same thing. Our youngest dog just shakes the whole time and I’m sure it will be all weekend. So lots of stitching with them both and tv. Have a great time at your retreat.
@@reneebebla422 hi Renee, thanks so much for your note. I feel so bad when our log is scared of fireworks and thunderstorms for that matter. Wish we could explain to him what’s happening, but all we can do is put him somewhere or he won’t see the flashes or hear the noise. We had a few fireworks last night, but most of them will be tonight and maybe tomorrow. Will have to get Benji in his calm place before it gets dark. Thanks again for your note 🙂
@@marybd123 Hi Mary, thanks so much for your note, I think you are right about the metallic highlighting the sun and sand. I appreciate you pointing it out. 🙂
What a great find at the antique mall! Yes, a pillow of sorts would be wonderful. I have Shores of Hawk Run Hollow kitted but haven't started it yet. Next up for me will be Serenity by Teresa Kogut.
Oh my, Karen…can’t believe I just found you. Absolutely stunning stitches. You are amazing. Will be watching you for weeks bc I want to catch your first 32 flosstubes! Hope you are enjoying your fourth!
Love your videos.Fun and informative. I been trying to watch in bed went to be early not feeling 100 percent to watch youtube. felll asleep woke up watched more fell asleep. So this morning I’m like MaryJo just watch her while you are up😢 accomplished 💚💜💚
Hi, I always enjoy watching your podcast. Your stitching is beautiful. On your whale, could you use a little bit darker thread and outline/backstitch it? That way it would show it a bit more. Just a thought. Happy stitching 😁
@@pattijensvold1348 Hi Patti, thanks so much for your note, I’m so glad you enjoyed the video. On the whale, that’s what I’m thinking I will have to do. It showed well until it was surrounded with the ocean color. I think your idea of using a slightly darker thread and back stitching, it might be the solution. Thanks again 🙂
Karen - the piece with your mother’s initials is beautiful. Don’t make it into a small. How about a Quaker sampler with the initials as one of the motifs? It would make a wonderful large sampler .
Karen, I love seeing all of your beautiful stitching. You are such a joy to watch! Right now, I am recovering from a broken right wrist and I cannot stitch at all. I miss it so very much and watching your videos is comforting. ❤
Happy Independence Day from NZ. So much fabulous progress with all your stitching. I love your antique linen, and so special to find your mother's initials!
Hello to New Zealand! We were able to visit there (I was teaching on a quilting cruise) in January 2020. Absolutely loved our visit to New Zealand. So many lovely memories from our time there. So glad you enjoyed the video and I sure appreciate your nice note! 🙂
So glad you enjoyed it and thank you so much for your note. I love many of the Hawk Run Hollow designs, I started with houses and I’m still working on it. No matter which one you select, you will enjoy stitching it, they’re all wonderful. Thanks again for your note ! 🙂
I thoroughly enjoy your videos. You give such great information. Your stitching and taste are impeccable! I do have a question... what are #103's? Is it a weight of thread that can be used for stitching? Thanks!
Hi Julie, I’m so glad you enjoyed the video and thank you so much for your lovely note! I appreciate it so much! Thank you so much for your question. 100.3 is a silk thread by Au Ver A Soie. It is the silk that comes on a spool rather than in a skein. 100.3 (or sometimes it is shown as 100/3) is a 3 ply highly twisted spun silk. I’m guessing the .3 refers to 3 ply. It is a lovely silk to stitch with and working from the spool is very convenient. Thanks again! 🙂
Hi Denise, thanks so much for your nice note! Oh, that is an excellent question! Let me do some research and talk about that on the next FlossTube. Thanks again!
@@lindakenison405 Hi Linda, I’ve been working on other things and haven’t pulled her out. Was just thinking about going back to work on her. I will make a note to show it on my next FT. ( plan to film later this week. ) I’ve really enjoyed working in her. I did change the linen and switched to the VC silk pack. The diagrams in the kit are excellent. Thanks for your note! 🙂

Wonderful finds at your antique mall! I love to go antiquing as well, was lucky to find an antique sampler while vacationing this past week.
