I have always been an "in hand" stitcher, however your fabulous tutorial series has shown me that a hoop and stand might prove invaluable especially for laying beautiful specialty stitches! In which case I think the Velke Potoky Modern stand would be the perfect opening into a great new world of stitching. I can't thank you enough for what this whole tutorial series has meant to me.
I just found your flosstube and loved it. I also was at a stitching day and one of the participants had the Potoky Modern stand in cream and I went directly to try and order one but they were all sold out. I would love to include this wonderful tool in my stitching because it was easy to use and can be taken anywhere. Thank you for bringing this opportunity to us.
I think my post was removed because of the link. Trying it without the link. I'd love to try for the Potoky Modern Cherry stand. Thank you to Velke Potoky and Hobby House. This is such a generous offer. I enjoy your tutorials. They have been very helpful. Love hearing the history of stitchers...it's as if they are reaching out to us from the past. Thank you.
Thank you Velke Potoky and Hobby House Needleworks for this wonderful giveaway. My favourite is Velke Potoky Cross Stitch Stand Modern Cherry. It was very interesting hearing about Georgiana’s sampler and her family history.
I loved your description of the Petoky Modern Stand! I loved the products they offer. I would use the Potoky Modern daily! Thank you Hobby House Velke Kathleen and David and as always Hands Across The Sea!!

What a sweet sampler and story. I’d love to have a modern stand. The slightly larger stand looks like it would work famously. Thank you Hobby House and Mr. Potoky!
I love the Potoky stands! My favorite is the Modern in the Cherry finish, but would be happy with any one of them. Thank you Potoky and Hobby House for this opportunity!
You are such a valuable member of this community. Thank you for your continued inspiration and information. All the stands are wonderful but the Potoky Modern in the light wood would be my choice.

Thank you and Velke Potoky and Hobby House Needleworks ! I had a better message on my first post...too bad it was deleted! lol
It was so nice to hear the history of Georgiana’s sampler. I didn’t know the distinction between black and red samplers. A fun detail to keep in mind. All of the Potoky stands are beautiful. But I think the modern looks like it would be a dream to stitch with. Their green color is just gorgeous. Thank you for sharing!!
Thank you for presenting such a wonderful story on Georgiana. Both Georgiana and Ann's samplers would look beautiful hanging side by side on any wall. The Potoky Modern stand in cream has long been on my wish list. Hobby House and Velke Potoky are so generous for hosting this giveaway.

The Potoky embroidery stands are such a high quality stitching tool. My choice would be a modern stand in the cherry wood. All the colors are so beautiful. I would like to see a pale blue added to the range. I think it would sell like hotcakes! Happy stitching.
Thank you so much for all you share. All of the Potoky stands are perfection. I have always wanted the green modern stand and would love to stitch using a Potoky.
Second try after your advice this morning about the links not working! I loved Georgiana’s story - fascinating. I love the Potoky mini cross stitch stand in green - my favourite colour.
Love Georgiana’s sweet sampler and hearing all about her. I perused Mr. Potoky’s website and love the Cross Stitch Stand M1 Cream. Thanks Nicola, Hobby House Needleworks and Mr. Potoky.
Nicola, Thanks for the genealogy for your charts. It’s awesome to know these girls still live on in history because of you. I love the Cherry Potoky stand.
First thank you for your beautiful channel. Today was especially interesting concerning Georgiana’s sampler and I’d love to stitch it. Thank you also to Velke Potoky and Hobby House Needleworks. My favorite cross stitch stand is the modern cherry. I’ve heard ONLY positive comments about this stand and would love to try it. Have a wonderful day! 🥰
I am in the early days of stitching Ann Campion and now excited to add Georgiana’s sampler as a companion piece! Thank you for sharing your joy of stitching, I am so grateful. I’d love to have a Potoky Modern stand- in any color! What a wonderful giveaway!!
Such a lovely backstory on Georgiana's life. It's why I love the sampler stitching... I can pick up a needle and thread and time travel! The Potoky modern stand is a thing of beauty and high function- my favorite combination. Thank you Nicola, for sharing all the joys of stitching!🌹
Thank you so much for sharing the story of Georgiana and the history of silk colors. I would love to own a Potoky stand in cream.Thank you also to Hobby House Needlework and to Velky Potoky for their generosity
I love and was able to purchase the Potoky modern in cream. So my new favorite is the Potoky M4 CH cherry stitch floor stand. Thank you Hobby House and Potoky. for this giveaway . Thank you Nicola for your most informative floss tubes.
Thank you for showing this wonderful sampler!! Also a big thank you to Hobby House for sponsoring the GB in the US in October. I had sent a Potoky link in a prior comment and now again posting .... I have seen the Potoky stands at HH and would love to actually own one as it seems to be faster stitching with both hands. I viewed the zpotoky website and also like their organizer piece!
I love all the Potoky products, but my favorite has to be the Modern in grey. I'm pretty new to cross-stitch and I'm building my knowledge and equipment at a very rapid pace, so hoping this is something I can do for years to come. Love your style of presentation - so relaxed ❤
It was so interesting hearing about Georgiana’s sampler and her family history, thank for sharing the extra information. My favorite Velke Potoky stand is the Cross Stitch Stand - Modern. Being able to stitch without hand or neck pain makes such a big difference.
The Potoky cross stitch stand Modern in the green color is my favorite. I think it would be very helpful to my stitching. Thank you for highlighting these very useful stands.
Thank you for taking the time to show us how to accomplish the other stitches in the sampler. I appreciate your knowledge and willingness to share. I would love to attend one of the retreats in England one day and see firsthand all of the beautiful places and history that is offered there. I really enjoy my Sunday mornings watching your videos. I would really love to be able to stitch with a Potoky modern stand in cherry while I’m watching! 😉
I just love the font on the Georgiana sampler. Thank you Nicola for all your videos which bring such joy to us all. And thank you to Velke Potoky and Hobby House Needleworks for their generosity. The Potoky Cross Stitch Stand - Cream would be a beautiful addition to anyone's collection.
How interesting to hear the connection between the sampler and Poldark..I have started rewatching the series after a friend was watching it whilst I was staying. The Velke Potoky products are gorgeous any would be a fantastic addition to my sewing room given a choice the Modern Stand in yellow…bright a cheery such a lovey colour.
The Potoky products are beautiful. Thank you to Hobby House, Kathy and David, and Potoky for sponsoring this giveaway. So fun. The Cross Stitch Modern in Gray caught my eye. All the colors are beautiful, but the Modern Gray because of the levers is my favorite.
I love the Potoky Modern Stand, because of its portability. Thank you to Hobby House Needleworks, Velke Potoky & especially you for the chance to win this wonderful stand. I am lucky enough to live within an hours drive of Hobby House Needleworks. The store is divine! If you are into other forms of needlework such as quilting & wool they also have shops dedicated to them at the same location. Hobby House Needleworks is a DESTINATION SHOP, not to be missed. If you are ever in WNY, make it a priority to stop there. And if you have some extra time, hop over to Niagara Falls. There is nothing like standing at the brink of the falls & feeling the power of the water. It is a multisensory experience.
Thanks for another great FlossTube episode, Nicola. I simply love Georgiana’s sampler and so appreciate learning her backstory. Believe it or not, the Potoky Cross Stitch Stand Modern-Cream is my pick, with the same model in green as a runner up. All of the Potoky products are fantastic, and I thank you, Potoky and Hobby House for the opportunity to have one!
Nicola, thank you to you, Hobby House Needleworks and Velke Potoky for your support of the stitching community. I was fortunate enough to see your presentation of Georgiana at the QCSG workshop. I plan to stitch her on a higher count linen which is a bit out of my comfort zone and would love to stitch her using a Potoky Modern White Stand. Best regards!
What an interesting presentation on Georgiana's sampler - thank you for sharing with us! I love hearing the stories of the stitchers, and having the pictures made it come to life even more. Thank you also, along with a big thanks to Velke Potoky and Hobby House Needleworks, for your giveaway. I think the product I like the most is the Cross Stitch Stand Modern, in Cherry. Thanks to your demonstration it looks like a great product that would be very helpful with my stitching.😍
I would LOVE a beautifully designed Potoky Modern stand! It would be so nice to have a table stand to use with a hoop. It looks very sturdy and portable for stitching at retreats, workshops and open stitch. ♥
So generous of Hobby House and Potoky to have a giveaway. The Potoky floor stand M4 in light is my favorite. All the stands are such quality products and the Modern version looks perfect for travel.
Georgiana’s sampler is exquisite! What an interesting backstory, thanks so much for the research. I feel so much more connected knowing the stories of other stitchers . The Potoky Modern compact cross stitch stand milky-white color is beautiful. Both the stitching and the stands are works of art.
Love the sampler and Potoky products! I particularly like the cross stitch stand Modern in any colour! They are all beautiful! Thank you so much Velke Potoky and Hobby House Needleworks for your generosity and giving us a chance of winning a beautiful stand!
Thank you for the very interesting story of Georgiana. I had not thought to look up the back story of the stitcher before. I don’t know whether a USA resident is eligible but my favorite product is the Potoky Modern stand in ❤Cherry.
Thank you for the story behind Georgiana’s life and sampler. I was an avid fan of Poldark. I’ve looked at the Potoky Modern Stand - Cherry. All of the colors were wonderful and it was hard to focus on one.
This is a really sweet sampler. Thank you for sharing her story, Nicola. And thank you to Hobby House and Potoky for offering such a lovely and useful stand. They are all wonderful but my favorite is the Modern Stand in cherry.
Last night I finished Mary G.Ramage - all those vibrant colors were the perfect summer stitch! The Georgiana sampler is very elegant in its simplicity . It's always very interesting to learn something about the story behind the samplers- thank you Nicola! Regarding the Velke Potoky products, they all seem to be very well made , sturdy and efficient. My favorite is the M4 stand in either cherry or white...maybe someday...Thanks to everyone involved in this generous offer!
Thank you for presenting the story of Georgiana’s sampler. It is beautiful in its simplicity. I would love to own a Modern Potoky stand. Thank you to all for your generosity offering this stand. Happy Stitching
The history for Georgiana was truly beautiful. Thank you for sharing her life with us. Also, thank you for showing the stand. I love the Potoky Modern in cream.
Love Georgiana she is a wonderful little marking sampler. I’ve been seeing the Potoky needle work systems for the last few years and they are beautiful to look at but also seem to be a very well thought out design with utmost detail to the finer points of their construction. I love the modern stand and there are such lovely color choices it might be hard to choose, the accessory box would also make a lovely addition to anyone’s sewing room. It’s very generous of Potoky, Hobby House and Hands Across the Sea to share such a lovely item with a lucky stitcher, good luck to all.
Hi Nicola, beautiful sampler, as always. I think my favorite Potoky is the Modern one, it looks so tiny and manageable. Thanks to you, Potoky and Hobby House!
H Nicola! Georgiana’s sampler is magnificent! Thank you for your generosity and for collaborating with V. Potoky and Hobby House! My favorite is the Modern stand in cream!
I have wanted a Potoky stand for a while! I would order the Modern Cross Stitch stand in cream or green. Always enjoy watching you and learning the background stories of the samplers.
I enjoyed learning about Georgiana's life and her lovely sampler. A beautiful Potoky Modern stand in cream would be my favourite choice. Thank you Hobby House and Velke Potoky and especially Nicola for hosting the giveaway.
Thank you sharing the background information on Georgiana, her family, and her lovely sampler. It was also interesting to learn about the protocols for marking linens; I had been unaware of the various fonts and placements for different items. Thanks, also, to you, Velke Potoky, and Hobby House Needleworks for this generous give-away. All of the stands and organizes are beautiful, and I found myself particularly drawn to the M1 desk-top stand. I love the vintage vibe that I get from this stand in the green finish, and appreciate the ability to store stitching items in the stand when working on small projects. The M1's ability to serve as a display stand for the completed work is, for me, the perfect finishing touch to an already wonderful product. With so many great Potoky products, any would be a delight to own. The lucky subscriber who wins this contest will surely be very happy. Thanks, again, to all of you for making this give-away possible! ❤
How wonderful for Velke Potoky and Hobby House Needleworks to offer this amazing modern stand as a giveaway. I love the gray colored stand. Georgiana's sampler along with Ann Campion would be beautiful on the sampler wall together. Thank you for always presenting such beautiful reproductions.
Thank you for sharing Georgiana's story. I love the idea of the modern stand, but the cross stitch stand M1 in green would be amazing. I always need storage close by when stitching.
I LOVE the Potoky Modern Cross Stitch Stand - Cream! The Potoky products look and sound amazing! Hobby House Needleworks also does a marvelous job with shipping orders! I wish I had known about this shop when I lived out in Boston as I would’ve made a trip to visit! I’ll get back there at some point! I am now in Spring Green, WI and LOVE my LNS, Country Sampler! Thank you, HATS, for your brilliant work and generosity with teaching. I love your reproductions and I love your flosstubes! ❤️❤️❤️
Nicola, thank you for your inspiration and dedication for education. The Potok modern in cherry is beautiful. I enjoyed seeing Georgiana sampler, I think it would be beautiful in a dark midnight blue, similar to Evertotes/Roxy floss. Just appreciate Hobby Horse sponsorship too. Enjoy your floss tubes. On a waiting list for some retreats. Again, your boys are wonderful to see.
I heard about you videos on the ABC sampler from Sewmesarah. I love to try new stitches and I look forward to learning something new to add to my needlework. I like the Cross Stitch Stand Modern in walnut. Thank you Nicola, Potoky and Hobby House Needleworks for being so generous.
Thank you so much for sharing the rich history about Georgiana, your presentation of her sampler was lovely. As for the Potoky I think the classic cream one that is being generously given away is so chic and elegant and would be my first pick 🙂
How generous of the shop owners to sponsor this give away! I love all of the products including the accessory boxes but my choice would have to be Cross Stitch Stand Modern in Cream. I’m off to purchase Georgiana as I Love the back story and link to Poldark! Thank you again
What a wonderful give away. I would 💖 to stitch on the modern stand in the cream color. Thank you Nicola, Hobby House Needleworks and Velke Potoky for this fabulous chance to win.
I watch all your videos every week. The history you found for this sampler is so complete. It's a shame she passed so young. This sampler is on my must have list. I would love the modern gray Potoky cross stitch stand.
Yes, Nicola, I was one that had my comment removed…and not just once. So here I go again after watching your next video. First, I have ordered Georgiana from The Attic to be picked up at Summer School and will save her to start at Hobby House in October. She’s just so lovely!! Next, I would love to stitch on Potoky Modern cream or white stand while starting Georgiana in Pittsford.
I go to hear Georgiana's history in Cincinnati and it was just as interesting the second time around! Thank you for this chance for a Potoky. If I had to pick just one, it would be the Modern Stand in Cream. Thanks for your videos...always a nice Sunday morning treat!
You produce such wonderful content! I love hearing the stories of the people who have stitched such beautiful samplers. I have really been researching my genealogy and would love to someday come across a sampler stitched by an ancestor! I am already checking my budget to be able to purchase Georgiana's sampler and have been wanting to purchase the modern Potoky stand in either green or white for some time now. What a wonderful, giving thing to do! Thank you all so much! 😊
What an awesome giveaway for one lucky stitcher! Love the Velke Potoky stands and would love to be the owner of the Cross Stitch Stand Modern. Thank you for the amazing videos that you make. I enjoy learning about the various samplers.
Many thanks to Velke Potoky and Hobby House Needleworks! My link was removed but I fell in love with every product on the website. The M4 in cherry is my number one favorite. The modern in cream that you showed is very beautiful.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful sampler and Georgina’s story. And thank you to Hobby House and Velke Potoky for this generous give away. I like the Velke Potoky Cross Stitch Stand Modern in yellow.
I love Georgiana’s sampler. I would love the Velke Potoky Cross Stitch Stand M4. Such wonderful craftsmanship. Thank you to Velke Potoky and Hobby House for their generosity and thank you, Nicola, for your generosity to the needlework community. Happy stitching!
What beautiful stitching! Someday, I hope to be able to travel to real LNSs, (instead of large box stores) to see samplers in person - what a difference it makes vs. just seeing photos. My favorite VPotoky product has to be the M4 Cross Stitch Stand - I would choose yellow in honor of my sister. Ever since I have seen other Flosstubers use this stand, it is my dream stand! Thank you for being so generous!
I really enjoyed learning about Georgiana! I also love how her sampler pairs so nicely with Ann Campions! I will put those on my list! I love the Potoky modern stand! My favorite color is the yellow! Unfortunately they are currently sold out of that one. It must be popular! Thank you so much!
I love the Potoky Modern Stand in white. Thank you Velke Potoky for the beautiful design and to both you and Hobby House Needleworks (which I've been fortunate enough to visit), for sponsoring. Thank you, also , Nicola, for introducing me to this product and for sharing all of your passion and knowledge of needlework.
Thank you so much for today’s video. I love Georgiana’s sampler and story. Her ending is quite sad and makes us realize how fortunate we are to have something we take for granted…insulin. 😢 I’m in love with the cross stitch stand modern …especially the cream and white colors. Their products are so well made! ❤
Georgiana’s beautiful sampler will be added to my list of must stitches!! Cross Stitch Stand Modern - Green is the Potoky stand that caught my eye!! Thank you Nicola,Hobby House and Potoky for all you do for the cross stitch world!!❤
Such a beautiful sampler Georgiana stitched and a very interesting life story to go with it. The Potoky Modern is a beautiful stand and all the colours are just beautiful. It would be a wonderful addition to a stitchers tool kit.
Thank you for another wonderfully informative floss tube. Besides the Potoky Stand, I love the Needlework Organizer. It’s just beautiful! All the products compliment each other.
Thank you to you, Nicola, Veske Potoky and Hobby House Needleworks for this amazingly generous offer. And Nicola, may I say, I had such a wonderful time enjoying your adventures through the U.S. As I write this, I am smiling at the memories. You always grace our shores! The biography of Georgiana Williams’ sampler is a celebratory and also a sad one. But gratefully, you have brought her back to life and preserved her memory for us. I love the Poldark series and will rewatch with a renewed interest and vigor. Sorry to be long-winded. I would love any Potoky stand and have been long desiring one of my own. A modern stand in cream would be beautiful, but frankly I love all of them. Hugs to your doggies! Happy August!
21:10 I enjoyed listening about Georgiana’s life story. You can feel a connection as you stitch her sampler. Thank-you Hobby House and Potok for this wonderful give away. All the stands are beautifully crafted, my favorite is the Cross Stitch Stand Modern-Cherry.

The Potoky products are beautiful. Thank you to Hobby House, Kathy and David, and Potoky for sponsoring this giveaway. So fun. The Cross Stitch Modern in Gray caught my eye. All the colors are beautiful, but the Modern Gray because of the levers is my favorite.
Thank you Velke Potoky and hobby House. Modern stand in cherry would be beautiful in my stitching area.
Thank you for all of your informative videos! I would love the Potoky modern cream stand but would be happy with any one of them.
I love the Potoky Modern Stand, because of its portability. Thank you to Hobby House Needleworks, Velke Potoky & especially you for the chance to win this wonderful stand. I am lucky enough to live within an hours drive of Hobby House Needleworks. The store is divine! If you are into other forms of needlework such as quilting & wool they also have shops dedicated to them at the same location. Hobby House Needleworks is a DESTINATION SHOP, not to be missed. If you are ever in WNY, make it a priority to stop there. And if you have some extra time, hop over to Niagara Falls.
There is nothing like standing at the brink of the falls & feeling the power of the water. It is a multisensory experience.
Thanks for another great FlossTube episode, Nicola. I simply love Georgiana’s sampler and so appreciate learning her backstory. Believe it or not, the Potoky Cross Stitch Stand Modern-Cream is my pick, with the same model in green as a runner up. All of the Potoky products are fantastic, and I thank you, Potoky and Hobby House for the opportunity to have one!
Nicola, thank you to you, Hobby House Needleworks and Velke Potoky for your support of the stitching community. I was fortunate enough to see your presentation of Georgiana at the QCSG workshop. I plan to stitch her on a higher count linen which is a bit out of my comfort zone and would love to stitch her using a Potoky Modern White Stand. Best regards!
Many thanks for such generosity Nicola, David, Kathy and Mr. Potoky. The Potoky Modern in Cream is my favorite. Looks like a stitchers dream!
What an interesting presentation on Georgiana's sampler - thank you for sharing with us! I love hearing the stories of the stitchers, and having the pictures made it come to life even more.
Thank you also, along with a big thanks to Velke Potoky and Hobby House Needleworks, for your giveaway. I think the product I like the most is the Cross Stitch Stand Modern, in Cherry. Thanks to your demonstration it looks like a great product that would be very helpful with my stitching.😍
I would LOVE a beautifully designed Potoky Modern stand! It would be so nice to have a table stand to use with a hoop. It looks very sturdy and portable for stitching at retreats, workshops and open stitch. ♥
So generous of Hobby House and Potoky to have a giveaway. The Potoky floor stand M4 in light is my favorite. All the stands are such quality products and the Modern version looks perfect for travel.
Georgiana’s sampler is exquisite! What an interesting backstory, thanks so much for the research. I feel so much more connected knowing the stories of other stitchers . The Potoky Modern compact cross stitch stand milky-white color is beautiful. Both the stitching and the stands are works of art.
Love the sampler and Potoky products! I particularly like the cross stitch stand Modern in any colour! They are all beautiful! Thank you so much Velke Potoky and Hobby House Needleworks for your generosity and giving us a chance of winning a beautiful stand!
Thank you for the very interesting story of Georgiana. I had not thought to look up the back story of the stitcher before.
I don’t know whether a USA resident is eligible but my favorite product is the Potoky Modern stand in ❤Cherry.
I love the mini stand just like what you showed. ❤ Loved hearing the history of Georgiana’s sampler.
Thank you for the story behind Georgiana’s life and sampler. I was an avid fan of Poldark. I’ve looked at the Potoky Modern Stand - Cherry. All of the colors were wonderful and it was hard to focus on one.
It’s so lovely to spend time with you today! I think I love the modern stand the most!
This is a really sweet sampler. Thank you for sharing her story, Nicola. And thank you to Hobby House and Potoky for offering such a lovely and useful stand. They are all wonderful but my favorite is the Modern Stand in cherry.
Last night I finished Mary G.Ramage - all those vibrant colors were the perfect summer stitch! The Georgiana sampler is very elegant in its simplicity . It's always very interesting to learn something about the story behind the samplers- thank you Nicola! Regarding the Velke Potoky products, they all seem to be very well made , sturdy and efficient. My favorite is the M4 stand in either cherry or white...maybe someday...Thanks to everyone involved in this generous offer!
Thank you for presenting the story of Georgiana’s sampler. It is beautiful in its simplicity. I would love to own a Modern Potoky stand. Thank you to all for your generosity offering this stand. Happy Stitching
The history for Georgiana was truly beautiful. Thank you for sharing her life with us. Also, thank you for showing the stand. I love the Potoky Modern in cream.
Love Georgiana she is a wonderful little marking sampler. I’ve been seeing the Potoky needle work systems for the last few years and they are beautiful to look at but also seem to be a very well thought out design with utmost detail to the finer points of their construction. I love the modern stand and there are such lovely color choices it might be hard to choose, the accessory box would also make a lovely addition to anyone’s sewing room. It’s very generous of Potoky, Hobby House and Hands Across the Sea to share such a lovely item with a lucky stitcher, good luck to all.
Hi Nicola, beautiful sampler, as always. I think my favorite Potoky is the Modern one, it looks so tiny and manageable. Thanks to you, Potoky and Hobby House!
H Nicola! Georgiana’s sampler is magnificent! Thank you for your generosity and for collaborating with V. Potoky and Hobby House! My favorite is the Modern stand in cream!
I have wanted a Potoky stand for a while! I would order the Modern Cross Stitch stand in cream or green. Always enjoy watching you and learning the background stories of the samplers.
I enjoyed learning about Georgiana's life and her lovely sampler. A beautiful Potoky Modern stand in cream would be my favourite choice. Thank you Hobby House and Velke Potoky and especially Nicola for hosting the giveaway.
Thank you sharing the background information on Georgiana, her family, and her lovely sampler. It was also interesting to learn about the protocols for marking linens; I had been unaware of the various fonts and placements for different items. Thanks, also, to you, Velke Potoky, and Hobby House Needleworks for this generous give-away. All of the stands and organizes are beautiful, and I found myself particularly drawn to the M1 desk-top stand. I love the vintage vibe that I get from this stand in the green finish, and appreciate the ability to store stitching items in the stand when working on small projects. The M1's ability to serve as a display stand for the completed work is, for me, the perfect finishing touch to an already wonderful product. With so many great Potoky products, any would be a delight to own. The lucky subscriber who wins this contest will surely be very happy. Thanks, again, to all of you for making this give-away possible! ❤
How wonderful for Velke Potoky and Hobby House Needleworks to offer this amazing modern stand as a giveaway. I love the gray colored stand. Georgiana's sampler along with Ann Campion would be beautiful on the sampler wall together. Thank you for always presenting such beautiful reproductions.
Needle organizer dark as well as the Potosky Modern. Your presentation on Georgiana was so interesting! Thank you!
I love the Potoky Modern in Light. Thank you to all who are involved in bringing us this wonderful opportunity.
Thank you for sharing Georgiana's story. I love the idea of the modern stand, but the cross stitch stand M1 in green would be amazing. I always need storage close by when stitching.
I LOVE the Potoky Modern Cross Stitch Stand - Cream! The Potoky products look and sound amazing! Hobby House Needleworks also does a marvelous job with shipping orders! I wish I had known about this shop when I lived out in Boston as I would’ve made a trip to visit! I’ll get back there at some point! I am now in Spring Green, WI and LOVE my LNS, Country Sampler!
Thank you, HATS, for your brilliant work and generosity with teaching. I love your reproductions and I love your flosstubes!
❤️❤️❤️
Nicola, thank you for your inspiration and dedication for education. The Potok modern in cherry is beautiful. I enjoyed seeing Georgiana sampler, I think it would be beautiful in a dark midnight blue, similar to Evertotes/Roxy floss. Just appreciate Hobby Horse sponsorship too.
Enjoy your floss tubes. On a waiting list for some retreats. Again, your boys are wonderful to see.
I heard about you videos on the ABC sampler from Sewmesarah. I love to try new stitches and I look forward to learning something new to add to my needlework. I like the Cross Stitch Stand Modern in walnut. Thank you Nicola, Potoky and Hobby House Needleworks for being so generous.
Thank you so much for sharing the rich history about Georgiana, your presentation of her sampler was lovely. As for the Potoky I think the classic cream one that is being generously given away is so chic and elegant and would be my first pick 🙂
How generous of the shop owners to sponsor this give away! I love all of the products including the accessory boxes but my choice would have to be Cross Stitch Stand Modern in Cream. I’m off to purchase Georgiana as I Love the back story and link to Poldark!
Thank you again
What a wonderful give away. I would 💖 to stitch on the modern stand in the cream color. Thank you Nicola, Hobby House Needleworks and Velke Potoky for this fabulous chance to win.
I watch all your videos every week. The history you found for this sampler is so complete. It's
a shame she passed so young. This sampler is on my must have list.
I would love the modern gray Potoky cross stitch stand.
Yes, Nicola, I was one that had my comment removed…and not just once. So here I go again after watching your next video. First, I have ordered Georgiana from The Attic to be picked up at Summer School and will save her to start at Hobby House in October. She’s just so lovely!! Next, I would love to stitch on Potoky Modern cream or white stand while starting Georgiana in Pittsford.
I go to hear Georgiana's history in Cincinnati and it was just as interesting the second time around! Thank you for this chance for a Potoky. If I had to pick just one, it would be the Modern Stand in Cream. Thanks for your videos...always a nice Sunday morning treat!
You produce such wonderful content! I love hearing the stories of the people who have stitched such beautiful samplers. I have really been researching my genealogy and would love to someday come across a sampler stitched by an ancestor! I am already checking my budget to be able to purchase Georgiana's sampler and have been wanting to purchase the modern Potoky stand in either green or white for some time now. What a wonderful, giving thing to do! Thank you all so much! 😊
I’ve throughly enjoyed your flosstubes and tutorials. Thank you. Love that cream Potosky Modern stand!
What an awesome giveaway for one lucky stitcher! Love the Velke Potoky stands and would love to be the owner of the Cross Stitch Stand Modern.
Thank you for the amazing videos that you make. I enjoy learning about the various samplers.
Many thanks to Velke Potoky and Hobby House Needleworks! My link was removed but I fell in love with every product on the website. The M4 in cherry is my number one favorite. The modern in cream that you showed is very beautiful.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful sampler and Georgina’s story. And thank you to Hobby House and Velke Potoky for this generous give away. I like the Velke Potoky Cross Stitch Stand Modern in yellow.
I love Georgiana’s sampler. I would love the Velke Potoky Cross Stitch Stand M4. Such wonderful craftsmanship. Thank you to Velke Potoky and Hobby House for their generosity and thank you, Nicola, for your generosity to the needlework community. Happy stitching!
What beautiful stitching! Someday, I hope to be able to travel to real LNSs, (instead of large box stores) to see samplers in person - what a difference it makes vs. just seeing photos. My favorite VPotoky product has to be the M4 Cross Stitch Stand - I would choose yellow in honor of my sister. Ever since I have seen other Flosstubers use this stand, it is my dream stand! Thank you for being so generous!
I really enjoyed learning about Georgiana! I also love how her sampler pairs so nicely with Ann Campions! I will put those on my list! I love the Potoky modern stand! My favorite color is the yellow! Unfortunately they are currently sold out of that one. It must be popular! Thank you so much!
I love the Potoky Modern Stand in white. Thank you Velke Potoky for the beautiful design and to both you and Hobby House Needleworks (which I've been fortunate enough to visit), for sponsoring. Thank you, also , Nicola, for introducing me to this product and for sharing all of your passion and knowledge of needlework.
Thank you so much for today’s video. I love Georgiana’s sampler and story. Her ending is quite sad and makes us realize how fortunate we are to have something we take for granted…insulin. 😢 I’m in love with the cross stitch stand modern …especially the cream and white colors. Their products are so well made! ❤
Georgiana’s beautiful sampler will be added to my list of must stitches!! Cross Stitch Stand Modern - Green is the Potoky stand that caught my eye!! Thank you Nicola,Hobby House and Potoky for all you do for the cross stitch world!!❤
Such a beautiful sampler Georgiana stitched and a very interesting life story to go with it. The Potoky Modern is a beautiful stand and all the colours are just beautiful. It would be a wonderful addition to a stitchers tool kit.
Thank you Nicola, Potoky, and Hobby House. My favorite is the Cross Stitch Stand Modern in yellow:)
Thank you for another wonderfully informative floss tube. Besides the Potoky Stand, I love the Needlework Organizer. It’s just beautiful! All the products compliment each other.
Thank you to you, Nicola, Veske Potoky and Hobby House Needleworks for this amazingly generous offer. And Nicola, may I say, I had such a wonderful time enjoying your adventures through the U.S. As I write this, I am smiling at the memories. You always grace our shores!
The biography of Georgiana Williams’ sampler is a celebratory and also a sad one. But gratefully, you have brought her back to life and preserved her memory for us. I love the Poldark series and will rewatch with a renewed interest and vigor.
Sorry to be long-winded. I would love any Potoky stand and have been long desiring one of my own. A modern stand in cream would be beautiful, but frankly I love all of them. Hugs to your doggies! Happy August!
21:10 I enjoyed listening about Georgiana’s life story. You can feel a connection as you stitch her sampler. Thank-you Hobby House and Potok for this wonderful give away. All the stands are beautifully crafted, my favorite is the Cross Stitch Stand Modern-Cherry.
