Forget Netflix, I am binge watching all of your videos from the beginning, such a treat! Your stitching and projects are so inspiring and friendship and camaraderie is a true treat!
Wow! That was fun! So many beautiful patterns and projects. Thank you to both of you for taking the time to share your love of stitching. I love the designer parades each week!
Oh my gosh, ladies! I feel like I’m in stitching Heaven when I watch y’all’s videos. Your works are all so beautiful. Thank you both for sharing with us.
Happy New Year! I totally enjoyed your video! You both are so much fun and your work is awesome. I,too, love Tanya so I thoroughly enjoyed your designer segment. Looking forward to the next video!
You both amaze me!! Your knowledge and supply. Thank you so much for another great floss tube and for sharing . I am still in shock !! over everything that you two have.
Thanks Deb!!!! We are lucky stitchers that have a lot of stash. I always say I would rather have stitching supplies rather than jewelry, expensive shoes and purses. But if I ever play and win the lottery, I shall have them all!!! Hah! Wishing you a Happy New Year!!!!
Your excitement for stitching and your joy of samplers sew shines through.My head was spinning with all your starts and finishes.Happy New Year and can't wait for your new starts!!!
What can I say?? I could have watched the two of your for 24 hours straight (with a Coke ; ). Tanya is also one of my very favorites and your beautiful stitching brought so many sighs and the same thought as the to of you, “I need to get back to this - Why did I put this away?” When I see the stash that the two of you have it does help me a little because I have been stitching since the late 70’s so I have so much stash that sometimes I feel guilty but the two of you soothe my soul!!😘. Thank you so much for sharing all of your lovelies!! I plan to start HATS Miss Mary Ann Bourne on New Years Day; I have her all kitted with the silks and I have been looking forward to stitching her so much. Hugs and happy stitching!!!🥰
Thanks Pam!!! Glad we could assuage your guilt about stash. Let's just stop feeling guilty and count our blessings that we have such large stash to draw from!!! Your New Years Day start is going to be gorgeous!!! I think that is the one with the bee skep right? Wishing you a very Happy New Year!!!!!!
I love watching both of you. You are so inspiring and make me want to stitch everything! Loved seeing all of your finishes and look forward to seeing your progress on your samplers. Happy stitching.
Well this one has to be the best one yet. Laura your sewing roll is ABSOLUTELY amazing. Brenda, Rachel Howell is gorgeous. I am doing her right now and I have just finished the border and like you it is my all time favorite. Thank you both so much for such great videos, I have watched them over and over. Happy New Year's and until next time . . . . .
Thanks so much Donna!!! That is so kind of you!!! I am working on Rachel Howell too!!! Not very far, but I can say it is my favorite sampler of all time too. Wishing you a very Happy New Year!!
Thank you so much for your very kind words. We so appreciate them. We love to share our joy of stitching and charts and linen and threads!!!!! It just means the world to us. Wishing you a very Happy New Year!!!!!
Wow!!!! You ladies know how to put on a show!! Beautiful charts, lots of beautiful starts (lol), and beautiful finishes. I always enjoy and look forward to your videos!!
Thanks so much to both of you for sharing your stuff!! Watching you both is truly is like visiting with friends. It is such fun to make stitching plans and we do have to keep designers in business, and boy, do we take that job seriously! I loved the designer parade. I have to say that I lol each time you pull out a project Laura as you make sure you have lots of fabric as it is a total contrast to one of the ladies I stitch with who usually runs her stitching to the very edge and has to sew fabric on so it can be framed. You both continue to inspire with your passion for this great hobby of ours - thanks again and Happy New Year!!!
Thanks Wanda!!!! Yes, I would rather have too much fabric than not enough! but it certainly does look comical when I unfurl it!!! We appreciate your kind words!!! Happy New Year!
I can’t tell you how much I enjoy your videos!! It’s like a mini vacation I give myself. Your faces just light up when you talk about your stitching and I know you love it like I do! Your stash leaves me speechless. It’s so fun to see all that you have and you inspire me to try new things! Thank you for taking the time to share with all of us!
I don’t know where I’ve been, but just watched my first of your videos! OMG. Beautiful stitching and fabulous stash! I’ll be watching more soon! Thanks for sharing! ❣️
Brenda and Laura, You have done it again! Another stunning video filled with the best possible goodies. Thank you for always giving “insider” information re retreats and clubs, and, oh, my, the sharing of stash! Wonderful, wonderful! Love your humor too. Your videos are just such a pleasure. Delicious from start to finish! Thank you both, and Happy New Year!
You two are just a hoot. :D I do love listening/watching you when I stitch. I'm amazed at how many WIPs you both keep going, and for the record, I don't mind the cellophane sound at all. To me, it's a *happy* noise, and I'm not sure why so many people feel the need to apologize for it. After a year, I'm still truggling with one aspect: when to splurge on more costly threads and when to not do it......sigh. Insight appreciated.
Thanks so much April!!!!! I think the time to splurge on more costly threads is when you are 150% in love with a project that calls for silks. I (Laura) love stitching with overdyed cottons the most so that works out well for me, but for certain projects I will splurge for silks. The most important thing is to stitch with what makes you happy. This is a good topic and I will remind Brenda it is something we can talk about in the future! Happy New Year!
@@brendaandtheserialstarter2410, thanks for the reply and advice. That would be great to hear more about thread choice from y'all. I have so much to learn. :D
World’s greatest enablers! My stash could easily triple. Thank you so much for sharing, I really appreciate you describing which ones were over 1 since I am not there yet. Such beautiful stitching. Best wishes for a wonderful new year.
Thank you Claire!!! We are happy to be of service!!! Over one is always a real pip....I would like it to be banished! However, sometimes you just have to do it...... Happy New Year!!!!!
Your videos just could not be better! I LOVE them! You have marvelous collections and you tell us so much, fabric colors, where you got conversions, the threads, the clubs and retreats, etc. it is all perfection!❤️❤️❤️❤️ Regarding the discussion of harsh black DMC and black Sulky, sulky makes a color Almost Black that might be a solution. I think that is the color name. I got mine from 123stitch.
Wow ladies you sent me right to an online cross stitch site for a few of these charts. Hard to believe I didn't already have them. Thanks, another great flosstube Have a Happy New Year!🍾🍾🥳
I glanced at the comments below and realize my feelings have already been expressed repeatedly: I love what you’ve stitched, am envious of your stash, and wish I could hang out with the two of you because you seem like so much fun. I’m looking forward to watching your stitching escapades during 2020. Happy New Yeas!
Thanks Amy!!! We wish that we could all stitch together too!!!! There is nothing more fun than hanging out with a bunch of enthusiastic stitchers!!! Wishing you a very Happy New Year!!!!
Another wonderful visit with the two of you. Stitching complete and stitching plans for the new year. Beautiful, just beautiful. I continue to be inspired by you to take time for my stitching. Laura, don't be offended, I no longer drink Tab; however, I enjoyed a nice glass of Merlot wine while watching the video. May you both be blessed with health and happiness in 2020. Happy New Year!!!
Thanks so much Joy!!! I am glad you enjoyed a nice glass of wine during the video. I support everyone's favorite beverage!!!! So glad you are taking some time to stitch!!!! Sending you lots of love! and best wishes for a very Happy New Year!!!
You ladies are wonderful. I love to sit and stitch while watching you. I consider you my floss tube friends. I wish you both a happy, healthy and stitchy new year!
What an amazing video! I always love to see the notice that you have a new video. I could sit and watch both of you for hours. Your cross stitch is so beautiful and I love the spotlight on a special designer. I am just returning to cross stitch after 20+ years and so much has changed. Thank you both for all the hard work you put into each video!!!
That is so nice of you to say Kathy! So glad you are back to stitching!!! It is such an exciting time in the stitching community. There are so many great designs, fibers and linens!!! Wishing you a very Happy New Year!
YAY!!!! A long video!! I look forward to your video’s so much! Love having you on while I stitch❤️ Although this time I had to stop stitching and start writing down my list of must buys! I had my scrap paper and quickly had to grab a full sheet to write my long list! Thank you for taking the time to share all your beautiful needlework with us! I always feel inspired after watching y’all!!! I already can’t wait for the next one! Wishing a happy and blessed New Year to you both!!!
You two are so enjoyable to watch...your personalities are delightful and your stitiching selections are impeccable. Thank you so much for sharing all that you do and can't wait for your next video!!
OMG ladies, it’s like going to your local needle work store! I can’t believe all your patterns and starts! I don’t let myself have anymore then 3 projects going or I would never finish anything 😂 but I’m just getting back into stitching, so after seeing your wonderful patterns I may do a little online shopping! Looking forward to your videos in 2020 Happy New Year, Happy stitching! Do what brings you JOY!
Thank you so much Lynnette!!!!! What wonderful words you have left us. Do what brings you joy!!!! and conversely you will spread joy! Just like your comment. Wishing you a Happy New Year!
Ladies! So appreciate your taking so much time to make your videos for us....overwhelming in the best way!! Brenda, I've watched your tour of your wonderful stitching cave many times....so lovely and inviting...hoping to get motivated to straighten mine out! Would love to see yours, Laura! Happy New Year to very lovely stitchie ladies!!
Thanks so much Chrie!!! I hope Brenda's room gives you motivation!!! My stitching room is highly disorganized. Not ready for prime time yet. Maybe some day!!!! Wishing you a very Happy New Year!
Wow! I can't believe you both have so many samplers! It is mind boggling! I saw several that I don't have and would like to stitch someday! Thanks for the parade of samplers!
Girlfriends! What a stash! I love your choices for 2020! I’m sure you’ll get them all done! 😂 Laura, I LOVE Mrs. Pearson! I have her kitted up. I have always loved the quirky designs. I love to visit with you ladies! Keep those needles flying and the videos coming!
You two are so inspiring and encouraging but hard to stitch & watch! Lots of stopping & rewinding! Thanks for the time and sharing of your beautiful work. Happy New Year!
This was me through the whole damn video 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤 I gotta watch this again! My package is on it’s way right now from The Attic, fabric and silks for the Red Deer Sampler, Laura I thought the same thing the first time I saw it, now it’s one of my top all time favorites! Go figure 🧐
That is so exciting that Red Deer is on its way to you!!! After the video I looked at Brenda's finish of it and it is AMAZING!!!!! I need to get some linen and get going on that one. Isn't it funny how our tastes change and expand to include things that we didn't like at first?? Happy Stitching!
You just made me want to go on a buying binge! I love all the sampler you have stitched and want to stitch! Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. I can’t wait for the next one!😀
Ladies you are so wonderful to watch with your humor and so much enthusiasm for stitching! I am very inspired! BTW the floss holders you are looking for are Pako needle holders (can be found in ebay). I have one for each of my large projects. They have a strip for placing your threaded needles and a card just below to label each of the threads. The strips are replaceable should you wear them out. Please keep making your videos, they are great!
Yikes! My pen ran out of ink! Soooo the greatest way to end the year. You two are def the dynamic duo. Laura your facial expressions are priceless. I continue to be impressed with all you gather and show us! The framed pieces show how masterful you are Brenda! I can tell you both are so proud of your works. I love the way you support each other. Attic is on my bucket list . I won’t feel anxious again about my half dozen wips. I can do it! I will just start sleeping less...lol. The Attic newsletter shows a gorgeous French red sampler I may order! Thx for the shout out about my little band. I love working on it. Keep us posted Brenda: I am still collecting books and patterns for my next one, Happy New Year to you both . ❤️❤️😣
Thank you for your very kind comments Angel!!! Yes, do not feel anxious about your half dozen WIPs!!!!! We have definitely got you beat in that department! That sampler in the Attic newsletter is amazing!!!! Hope you get it!!! Wishing you and your family a very Happy New Year!!!!!!!
I'm watching your FlossTube from the beginning and enjoying the videos (I also watch the recent videos). You just mentioned your plans for 2020, and I laughed. Nothing in 2020 happened as we expected! Oh, hindsight!
You two ladies are nothing short of amazing. I’ve enjoyed this ‘parade’ for three days …over and over again. It doesn’t even stop there because the energy you’ve generated will fuel 2020. Oh, I’m not alone, others here have clearly expressed the same. What a difference you make to so many. Tremendous thanks for all the sharing and caring! Happy New Year!
okay, I am really going to cry now!!!! That is just the sweetest comment Lori. Thank you so much. To think that we brought any amount of happiness to others is just amazing. Stand by for another parade during our next video!!!! We have a really great designer picked out. Wishing you a very Happy New Year!!!!
Thank you for these wonderful videos - you guys rock! First of all I was raised on Tab and didn’t know they even sold it anymore so excited to see that. Second I cannot believe your stash - can I just come roll around in a big pile of samplers. I have just started to like samplers..now I am crazy for them - so total enabling! So enjoyed your enthusiasm for stitching and the amazing craft room. What is not to love - hope you all keep going..thanks again as I know these are a lot of work
Thanks so much for your kind comments!!!!!! We have no plans to stop anytime soon and do not foresee running out of stash and WIPs! I hope that you can get Tab wherever you are!!!! It is hard to find in some places. Luckily, I am on to a good supply here. Until next time, Happy Stitching!!!
Beautiful Stitching ladies! I want ALL the things! You two are so stinking cute!! I think you should get TAB to endorse your videos. LOL!! I remember drinking TAB in the 70's but didn't realize they still made it. Love watching your videos. Happy New Year!
What a fabulous floss tube❣️We are so lucky to have so many talented designers. I don’t think I can pick just one designer. But, I own so many Scarlett House! Wishing you both a happy, healthy New Year.
I enjoyed seeing the two photos that you put at the beginning of the video with everything organized. Thank you for sharing Wips and finishes. Now, I have to get out some of my Scarlet House patterns and add them to my 2020 list. It is wonderful to watch your longer videos. Please keep them coming. Thank you! Happy New Year!
I just love when you do a new Flosstube! So enjoyable from beginning to end, chock full of beautiful projects and finishes, helpful tips and information, and just FUN! Thank you for doing these!!!
Happy New Years to Both of you Ladies. All I can say is double wowza!!!!!! So inspiring to see all the wonderful starts and finishes. Those not feeling it and wrong fabric helps tremendously too. Another Great Video. Linda m
What can I say but WOW.....so many wonderful pieces that I didn’t know I need! I only have 2 samplers started going into 2020 ....and would really like to finish them before I start another one .....but man...the Scarlett house is calling me🤣.....have a wonderful new year! Just enjoy you guys so much!
Thanks so much Terri!!!!! I know what you mean about The Scarlett House calling to you...so many great samplers and projects. If it helps at all...I wish I would have finished a few more things before starting 10 others...maybe you can not follow my lead and be more productive....??? Hugs!!!
Goodness gracious, both of you do the most breathtaking work! I've been glued to my computer screen the entire time, watching as each new project is more amazing than the last! Thank you for taking the time to share with us --- What master needle workers you both are!
What an episode! I am so into red stitching thanks to you guys (closing in on a finish on Antonetta Bove). I adore everything you showed! Thank you! Lisa
I shouldn't have watched this before I go to bed...I'll never sleep dreaming of all of your beautiful stitching and charts you had!!! Thank you so much and I hope you eventually made it out from behind all the piles of goodness! LOL HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
Always excited to see a notification of a new video of yours. Thank you so much for sharing all your goodies with us and being so joyful. Happy New Year to you both and happy stitching.
Happy New Year to you both. I just love your videos, I look forward to them every couple of weeks. Love to see all your beautiful stitching...two lovely ladies. Best wishes and health and happiness for 2020....carolxstitch xx
Can’t say enough about how much I enjoy watching you both. Again and again.... You are an inspiration for both your stitching and your friendship, thanks for taking the time to put these videos out!
Thank you again for the most enjoyable flosstube. Girls, I wish I could come and visit with you. Everything you both do is just wonderful. Happy New Year to you both. Looking forward to your next video. Much love,
Oh, I have a Raskog tip: I got little hooks from IKEA (kitchen area) and put them on the side to hang my hoops. it works wonderfully! I've kept my 2020 stitching plans very simple (for now) and I'm just going to focus on the SAL from Modern Folk Embroidery. But you are really making me want to stitch something from Hands Across the Sea! So many choices. (I'm stopping the video at the parade because it's already 1.30am here, but yay, more for tomorrow! Thank you so much for your videos, it's always a special treat.)
Thanks for the tip Caroline!!!! Great idea!!!! I think you should add one HATS sampler to your rotation!!!! There are a couple of smaller ones if that helps! Thank you for your kind comments. Happy New Year!
WOW! And wow again. Thank you B and L for an inspiring walk through your wonderful samplers. Indeed my mind was blown away! Wishing you and yours a very Happy New Year.
Just finished your wonderful video. I must say first WOW!! I have never in my life seen so many beautiful charts. I know it was a long video but I loved it so much. You two ladies have some awesome talent. Thanks for taking the daunting task of sharing your stash!! I truly hope to meet you both one day!!
You both saved me today!!! What a pleasure to spend time with you Thank you for showing all the samplers and for telling us when there is one over one stitching. This is very helpful:) I’m an Aida stitcher and can never tell if a chart has one over one stitching. Looking forward to seeing you again Happy New Year! Barb
Thanks so much Barb!!!! I hate over one stitching but do it begrudgingly. Ugh. I think we will always remember to say when there is some because neither of us really like it. Wishing you a very Happy New Year!!!
Ladies, I LOVE watching you- I had to stop watching the Packer game because your new video came on. I am watching you for the third time. I love everything you are planning to stitch in 2020. Happy New Year!
Wow!!! You chose us over the Packers!!!! That is a high compliment because we know Packer fans are serious fans!!! Thanks so much for your kind comments. Wishing you a very Happy New Year RoseAnn!!!
Hi ladies. I don’t know much about the two of you but I have to say you are a delight. I just get tickled watching you and it makes me happy. Which is very much needed now a days. So thank you
So funny, I have been on a Scarlett House kick lately myself! I have A Perfect World all kitted up and ready to start, I am stitching Elizabeth Hunter as.we.speak, and I just ordered Mary Hawley and Mary Cook (yes. I am certifiably nuts. Don't tell.) : ) And, you don't want to see my wip basket... my list of 2020 'to stitch' numbers 19 right now (to be adjusted. Especially after watching YOU guys!!! : ), and so far I listed 14 'almost done, to finish this year!!!'.... sigh....I think it was Carol (Saltbox Stitcher) who called this a 'disease'. Well my only hope then for a remedy, is to watch more of your videos! You girls rock : )
Thanks so much Theresa!! Yes, we are all "diseased!!!!" I started Elizabeth Hunter too!!! But if we didn't have all this stitching to work on and plan about....we would have a worse disease I fear!!! Wishing you a very Happy New Year full of WIPS, stash and planning!!
You hit it out of the park again!!! Have a happy happy New Year and look forward to seeing you next year! I finished Mary Miller last night!!! Starting Savior's Praise on New Year's Day. Happy Stitching!! Thanks for the inspiration!
Thanks Suzanne!!! Congratulations on finishing the beautiful Mary Miller!!!! And you have picked a wonderful sampler to start tomorrow!!!! Happy New Year!!!
00.Just subscribed to you both. Must say I am exhausted just watching you both! I no longer feel guilty about my stuff after watching you! Happy New Year and enjoy the stitching!
Oh how I love you two gals. I so look forward to your visit with us. What a joy you bring to me. I enjoyed today’s video so much; hated for it to end. Happy Stitching in the New Year.
I loved every second! More, more, more! You two are the GREATEST! I so hope to get to a retreat to meet you someday... See you in the new year. Sally in Northern California 😁
Brenda and the Serial Starter I, unfortunately live in Stockton and care for my 95 year old mother. So tired of Stockton and no LNS except for Alameda and hate driving into the Bay Area even though my daughter and grandkids live in The City. All my friends went to UC Davis (Heather Fargo and others), but I wanted Santa Cruz and ended up at San Francisco State and Lone Mountain and finishing at UOP. Then again to SFSU for MA. I have a sweet little cabin in Cazadero near the Russian River...that’s my favorite place to be...under the redwoods with rain. Have a great stitchy winter. I am a retired teacher, so lots of time, but limited funds. I’ve signed up for the various newsletters you recommended...maybe someday... Happy New Year! 🎉. Sally in Northern California (sounds better than Stockton) 😁
Wow....I just love watching your videos and have learned so much from you both. Happy New Year...hope it full of joy, blessings and of course...lots of stitching time!!
Oh me, I was going to be on a spending freeze to get ready for Market 2020, but I saw several Scarlett House pieces I gotta get in case they disappear. Thank you so much for your videos! They make me want to stitch faster and faster to complete so many pretty things. Darlene in Georgia
You ladies rock! Only one question...how do you find time to breathe? Wow....your WIPs and Hauls make me feel so much better, when I get overwhelmed with my ( much less) WIPS...then I go n buy more! Happy New Year!
Thanks Cathryn!!! The only way we can breathe and live is if we have plenty of stash around us and in our heads!!! Seriously, it is a running theme in our heads all day every day!!!! So much fun!!!! Happy New Year!
Listen here ladies, I could watch/ listen to you all day! You are both inspiring and have made me want to attempt a sampler! I seriously love you both! Happy New Year, Brenda and Laura!
You two ladies are a definite favorite for me and I thoroughly enjoy everything you share! You two have so much to offer the community and I'm so glad you started a floss tube!
Just wonderful to see all your starts and kits... makes my stash look small, but I’m working on it...a very happy new year to both of you and your families
You two are just amazing as I have said time and time again. Just love seeing your show and tell items, your finished pieces and plans for the future. I started using the Needlework Press Calendar a year ago and bought one for this coming year too. What fun to record daily just to see what you can accomplish. While you ladies were showing your items, I decided to run a total on the 2019 calendar; 92 finishes. Some small and some large and no unfinished items, these are done! So, just look what we accomplish in a year's time and the record to show. Wishing both of you a very prosperous and happy New Year ahead. Hope your needles will fly and look forward to the next video. Thanks so much for the lovely break with you both; Norma, Boise, ID.
Wowza!!!!!! Norma!! You sure finished a lot of projects!!! How wonderful!!!!! Hope I can finish a fraction of that in the new year (Laura)!!!! Happy New Year!! Hugs!!!
I know I keep saying this--you girls are just the best! Great plans, choices, finished pieces. And Nicola Parkman, Hands Across the Sea is one of the most approachable people ever! If you get stumped, contact her, she will help, she just wants people to stitch. Thanks for naming linen and Scarlett House is one of my favorite designers.
Thanks Betty!!!!! Yes, we had the great good fortune to meet Nicola and she is wonderful. So glad Scarlett House is a favorite of yours too! Happy New Year!
Ladies, Happy New Year! I lost count of how many times I had to pause the video to take notes of what to buy in the new year! Your finishes are beautiful and I so enjoyed seeing you!!!
Thanks again for another awesome video. I don't think either of you have enough samplers to do, you need more! Everything finished was so beautiful! Happy New Year to both of you, visit with you next year!
Thanks so much Christine!!! You know we will need more when the market releases start coming out!!! Wishing you a very Happy New Year and hope to see you soon!!!
You ladies are such a joy and an inspiration! Love everything you show and you’ve stitched. We stitch what we want and have plenty of backups if we change our minds! 😊
You ladies are the Best! I met you in May at Stitchville in Minnesota, I was standing in line to pay and you were behind me and were attending the retreat, I was so excited to talk to you about Priscilla and Chelsea, then you are on Flosstube and I was so happy, I watch everyone of your videos at least twice you have given me inspiration to stitch lots of my stash. Thank you so much for your videos 😘 Shelley Reynolds
That is so exciting Shelley!!! To know that you have taken some inspiration from us is the highest compliment!!!! I am so glad we met at the retreat!! I wish I could remember the exact encounter!!!! If I saw your face I bet I would (this is Laura by the way). Wasn't that a fun retreat??? I love Priscilla and Chelsea so much!!! Happy New Year!!!
Catching up on my Flosstubers and as always, you ladies kept me GLUED to your every word! My list is looooong for further projects now! Lol~ Looking forward to 2020 with you guys🥰♥️🥰
Forget Netflix, I am binge watching all of your videos from the beginning, such a treat! Your stitching and projects are so inspiring and friendship and camaraderie is a true treat!
Wow! That was fun! So many beautiful patterns and projects. Thank you to both of you for taking the time to share your love of stitching. I love the designer parades each week!
Thanks so much Rebecca!!! We appreciate your taking the time to comment. Happy New Year!
Ok I've started watching the 2 of you in April.....so now I'm watching from the beginning....all I have to say about this one is "Mrs. Pearson"
Oh my gosh, ladies! I feel like I’m in stitching Heaven when I watch y’all’s videos. Your works are all so beautiful. Thank you both for sharing with us.
You said it right Sandy. I also feel like I'm in stitching Heaven watching these two ladies!!!
I agree, we are so fortunate they share with us.

Thanks so much Janice!!!!! That is so kind of you!!!
You both amaze me!! Your knowledge and supply. Thank you so much for another great floss tube and for sharing . I am still in shock !! over everything that you two have.
Thanks Deb!!!! We are lucky stitchers that have a lot of stash. I always say I would rather have stitching supplies rather than jewelry, expensive shoes and purses. But if I ever play and win the lottery, I shall have them all!!! Hah! Wishing you a Happy New Year!!!!
Your excitement for stitching and your joy of samplers sew shines through.My head was spinning with all your starts and finishes.Happy New Year and can't wait for your new starts!!!
Thanks so much!!!!!!! We really do get a lot of joy out of stitching and talking about stitching. Thank you for sharing in that!!!! Happy New Year!!!
What can I say?? I could have watched the two of your for 24 hours straight (with a Coke ; ). Tanya is also one of my very favorites and your beautiful stitching brought so many sighs and the same thought as the to of you, “I need to get back to this - Why did I put this away?” When I see the stash that the two of you have it does help me a little because I have been stitching since the late 70’s so I have so much stash that sometimes I feel guilty but the two of you soothe my soul!!😘. Thank you so much for sharing all of your lovelies!! I plan to start HATS Miss Mary Ann Bourne on New Years Day; I have her all kitted with the silks and I have been looking forward to stitching her so much. Hugs and happy stitching!!!🥰
Thanks Pam!!! Glad we could assuage your guilt about stash. Let's just stop feeling guilty and count our blessings that we have such large stash to draw from!!! Your New Years Day start is going to be gorgeous!!! I think that is the one with the bee skep right? Wishing you a very Happy New Year!!!!!!
Another great video. Love all of your stitching, always look forward to seeing you both. My favorites for sure.
Thanks so much Rita!! That is so kind of you to say!!! Happy New Year!
I always have such fun watching your floss tube. Thanks for sharing all those beautiful samplers. Looking forward to 2020.
Thanks so much Kathy!!!!!! Happy New Year!
I love watching both of you. You are so inspiring and make me want to stitch everything! Loved seeing all of your finishes and look forward to seeing your progress on your samplers. Happy stitching.
Thank you so much Debra!!!!! We sure appreciate your kind words. Happy New Year!
I enjoy the long videos so much so I can drool over all your lovely works! Thank you so much 😊.
Thank you Cassandra!!!!! Happy New Year!
Well this one has to be the best one yet. Laura your sewing roll is ABSOLUTELY amazing. Brenda, Rachel Howell is gorgeous. I am doing her right now and I have just finished the border and like you it is my all time favorite. Thank you both so much for such great videos, I have watched them over and over. Happy New Year's and until next time . . . . .
Thanks so much Donna!!! That is so kind of you!!! I am working on Rachel Howell too!!! Not very far, but I can say it is my favorite sampler of all time too. Wishing you a very Happy New Year!!
Thank you for sharing! I LOVE all your stitchy goodness!
Thank you for letting us know!!!! Happy New Year!
Just love to watch your video's.... my mind can't comprehend what it sees.... Just love love love almost everything...
Thank you so much for your very kind words. We so appreciate them. We love to share our joy of stitching and charts and linen and threads!!!!! It just means the world to us. Wishing you a very Happy New Year!!!!!
Wow!!!! You ladies know how to put on a show!! Beautiful charts, lots of beautiful starts (lol), and beautiful finishes. I always enjoy and look forward to your videos!!
Thanks so very much!!!!!! Wishing you a Happy New Year!!
Thanks so much to both of you for sharing your stuff!! Watching you both is truly is like visiting with friends. It is such fun to make stitching plans and we do have to keep designers in business, and boy, do we take that job seriously! I loved the designer parade. I have to say that I lol each time you pull out a project Laura as you make sure you have lots of fabric as it is a total contrast to one of the ladies I stitch with who usually runs her stitching to the very edge and has to sew fabric on so it can be framed. You both continue to inspire with your passion for this great hobby of ours - thanks again and Happy New Year!!!
Thanks Wanda!!!! Yes, I would rather have too much fabric than not enough! but it certainly does look comical when I unfurl it!!! We appreciate your kind words!!! Happy New Year!
I can’t tell you how much I enjoy your videos!! It’s like a mini vacation I give myself. Your faces just light up when you talk about your stitching and I know you love it like I do! Your stash leaves me speechless. It’s so fun to see all that you have and you inspire me to try new things! Thank you for taking the time to share with all of us!
Thanks so much for your kind words Ginger!! How sweet!!! I just love that we share this passion!! Wishing you a very Happy New Year!!!
I don’t know where I’ve been, but just watched my first of your videos! OMG. Beautiful stitching and fabulous stash! I’ll be watching more soon! Thanks for sharing! ❣️
Thanks so much Charlene!!!!!!!
Brenda and Laura, You have done it again! Another stunning video filled with the best possible goodies. Thank you for always giving “insider” information re retreats and clubs, and, oh, my, the sharing of stash! Wonderful, wonderful! Love your humor too. Your videos are just such a pleasure. Delicious from start to finish! Thank you both, and Happy New Year!
Thank you so much for your kind words Mary!!!! You made our day!!! Happy New Year!!!
You two are just a hoot. :D I do love listening/watching you when I stitch. I'm amazed at how many WIPs you both keep going, and for the record, I don't mind the cellophane sound at all. To me, it's a *happy* noise, and I'm not sure why so many people feel the need to apologize for it. After a year, I'm still truggling with one aspect: when to splurge on more costly threads and when to not do it......sigh. Insight appreciated.
Thanks so much April!!!!! I think the time to splurge on more costly threads is when you are 150% in love with a project that calls for silks. I (Laura) love stitching with overdyed cottons the most so that works out well for me, but for certain projects I will splurge for silks. The most important thing is to stitch with what makes you happy. This is a good topic and I will remind Brenda it is something we can talk about in the future! Happy New Year!
@@brendaandtheserialstarter2410, thanks for the reply and advice. That would be great to hear more about thread choice from y'all. I have so much to learn. :D
World’s greatest enablers! My stash could easily triple. Thank you so much for sharing, I really appreciate you describing which ones were over 1 since I am not there yet. Such beautiful stitching. Best wishes for a wonderful new year.
Thank you Claire!!! We are happy to be of service!!! Over one is always a real pip....I would like it to be banished! However, sometimes you just have to do it...... Happy New Year!!!!!
Your videos just could not be better! I LOVE them! You have marvelous collections and you tell us so much, fabric colors, where you got conversions, the threads, the clubs and retreats, etc. it is all perfection!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Regarding the discussion of harsh black DMC and black Sulky, sulky makes a color Almost Black that might be a solution. I think that is the color name. I got mine from 123stitch.
I will look into that immediately Jill! Thanks so much for that tip and for your kind words!!! Wishing you a very Happy New Year!
Wow ladies you sent me right to an online cross stitch site for a few of these charts. Hard to believe I didn't already have them. Thanks, another great flosstube Have a Happy New Year!🍾🍾🥳
Wooohoo!! New charts!!! Glad you saw something you liked! Wishing you a Happy New Year Laraine!
You ladies are delightful! Thank you for sharing your stitching treasures.
Thank you for watching Jeanne!!!!
I glanced at the comments below and realize my feelings have already been expressed repeatedly: I love what you’ve stitched, am envious of your stash, and wish I could hang out with the two of you because you seem like so much fun. I’m looking forward to watching your stitching escapades during 2020. Happy New Yeas!
Thanks Amy!!! We wish that we could all stitch together too!!!! There is nothing more fun than hanging out with a bunch of enthusiastic stitchers!!! Wishing you a very Happy New Year!!!!
You bring so much love to us stitchers. I feel you are visiting me in my home. I am going on repeat.
Thank you so very much Gisela! We love stitching so much and cannot help but share the enthusiasm. It is so much Fun!
Thanks for sharing your beautiful stitching. I enjoy your videos.
Thanks so much Wendy!!!! Happy New Year!
Another wonderful visit with the two of you. Stitching complete and stitching plans for the new year. Beautiful, just beautiful. I continue to be inspired by you to take time for my stitching. Laura, don't be offended, I no longer drink Tab; however, I enjoyed a nice glass of Merlot wine while watching the video. May you both be blessed with health and happiness in 2020. Happy New Year!!!
Thanks so much Joy!!! I am glad you enjoyed a nice glass of wine during the video. I support everyone's favorite beverage!!!! So glad you are taking some time to stitch!!!! Sending you lots of love! and best wishes for a very Happy New Year!!!
You ladies are wonderful. I love to sit and stitch while watching you. I consider you my floss tube friends. I wish you both a happy, healthy and stitchy new year!
We are definitely floss tube friends!! Hopefully we can meet someday!!! Wishing you a very Happy New Year dear!!!
What an amazing video! I always love to see the notice that you have a new video. I could sit and watch both of you for hours. Your cross stitch is so beautiful and I love the spotlight on a special designer. I am just returning to cross stitch after 20+ years and so much has changed. Thank you both for all the hard work you put into each video!!!
That is so nice of you to say Kathy! So glad you are back to stitching!!! It is such an exciting time in the stitching community. There are so many great designs, fibers and linens!!! Wishing you a very Happy New Year!
Another awesome video! Love, love the Scarlett House parade. You two do amazing work. You inspired me to buy a few samplers patterns. 🤗
Thank you for inspiring me to ffo some of my stitching. I always enjoy your videos. Because of your love of samplers, I bought my first one.
That is so exciting!!!!! We hope you love stitching on your first sampler!!! and that there are many more in the future!! Happy New Year Sonja!
Whooo hooo...2020 is off to a great start...watching you two and all your gorgeous planned projects! Can’t wait for more! 😀
Thanks Valerie!!!!! I think 2020 will be a great stitching year for all of us!!!
YAY!!!! A long video!! I look forward to your video’s so much! Love having you on while I stitch❤️ Although this time I had to stop stitching and start writing down my list of must buys! I had my scrap paper and quickly had to grab a full sheet to write my long list! Thank you for taking the time to share all your beautiful needlework with us! I always feel inspired after watching y’all!!! I already can’t wait for the next one! Wishing a happy and blessed New Year to you both!!!
Thank you so much Liz!!!! So appreciate your kind words!!! Glad you found stuff to put on your list!!! Happy New Year!
You two are so enjoyable to watch...your personalities are delightful and your stitiching selections are impeccable. Thank you so much for sharing all that you do and can't wait for your next video!!
Thank you for your very kind and wonderful comments Lesley!!!!! Happy New Year!
OMG ladies, it’s like going to your local needle work store! I can’t believe all your patterns and starts! I don’t let myself have anymore then 3 projects going or I would never finish anything 😂 but I’m just getting back into stitching, so after seeing your wonderful patterns I may do a little online shopping! Looking forward to your videos in 2020 Happy New Year, Happy stitching! Do what brings you JOY!
Thank you so much Lynnette!!!!! What wonderful words you have left us. Do what brings you joy!!!! and conversely you will spread joy! Just like your comment. Wishing you a Happy New Year!
Ladies! So appreciate your taking so much time to make your videos for us....overwhelming in the best way!! Brenda, I've watched your tour of your wonderful stitching cave many times....so lovely and inviting...hoping to get motivated to straighten mine out! Would love to see yours, Laura! Happy New Year to very lovely stitchie ladies!!
Thanks so much Chrie!!! I hope Brenda's room gives you motivation!!! My stitching room is highly disorganized. Not ready for prime time yet. Maybe some day!!!! Wishing you a very Happy New Year!
Wow! I can't believe you both have so many samplers! It is mind boggling! I saw several that I don't have and would like to stitch someday! Thanks for the parade of samplers!
What is really mind boggling is that there are more that we want! Yikes! Happy New Year Dee!
Girlfriends! What a stash! I love your choices for 2020! I’m sure you’ll get them all done! 😂
Laura, I LOVE Mrs. Pearson! I have her kitted up. I have always loved the quirky designs.
I love to visit with you ladies! Keep those needles flying and the videos coming!
Thanks so much Robin!!!!!!!! Glad you love Mrs. Pearson too!!!! Yes, I am sure we will get everything done too!!! Happy New Year! Happy Stitching!
You two are so inspiring and encouraging but hard to stitch & watch! Lots of stopping & rewinding! Thanks for the time and sharing of your beautiful work. Happy New Year!
Thanks so much!!! We are glad you found lots to look at!!!! Happy New Year!
This was me through the whole damn video 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
I gotta watch this again! My package is on it’s way right now from The Attic, fabric and silks for the Red Deer Sampler, Laura I thought the same thing the first time I saw it, now it’s one of my top all time favorites! Go figure 🧐
That is so exciting that Red Deer is on its way to you!!! After the video I looked at Brenda's finish of it and it is AMAZING!!!!! I need to get some linen and get going on that one. Isn't it funny how our tastes change and expand to include things that we didn't like at first?? Happy Stitching!
Wow! Just amazing! Blown away by all the wonderful samplers.
Thanks so much Debbie!!! Happy New Year!
@@brendaandtheserialstarter2410 happy New Year 🎉🎊
You just made me want to go on a buying binge! I love all the sampler you have stitched and want to stitch! Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. I can’t wait for the next one!😀
Thanks so much Ann!!!! I want to go on a binge too......but I better at least wait until market!!! Happy Stitching!!
Ladies you are so wonderful to watch with your humor and so much enthusiasm for stitching! I am very inspired! BTW the floss holders you are looking for are Pako needle holders (can be found in ebay). I have one for each of my large projects. They have a strip for placing your threaded needles and a card just below to label each of the threads. The strips are replaceable should you wear them out. Please keep making your videos, they are great!
Thank you Linda!!! I am going to go look up Pako needle holders right this minute!!!! Thank you for your kind comments too!!!
Yikes! My pen ran out of ink! Soooo the greatest way to end the year. You two are def the dynamic duo. Laura your facial expressions are priceless. I continue to be impressed with all you gather and show us! The framed pieces show how masterful you are Brenda! I can tell you both are so proud of your works. I love the way you support each other. Attic is on my bucket list . I won’t feel anxious again about my half dozen wips. I can do it! I will just start sleeping less...lol.
The Attic newsletter shows a gorgeous French red sampler I may order! Thx for the shout out about my little band. I love working on it. Keep us posted Brenda: I am still collecting books and patterns for my next one,
Happy New Year to you both . ❤️❤️😣
Thank you for your very kind comments Angel!!! Yes, do not feel anxious about your half dozen WIPs!!!!! We have definitely got you beat in that department! That sampler in the Attic newsletter is amazing!!!! Hope you get it!!! Wishing you and your family a very Happy New Year!!!!!!!
Love, Love, Love your video!! Your samplers are beautiful and I want to stitch everyone. You are both so inspiring. Can't wait for the next video,
Thanks so very much Edwina!!! Did I already tell you that I love your name!?? It is beautiful. Wishing you a Happy New Year!
I'm watching your FlossTube from the beginning and enjoying the videos (I also watch the recent videos). You just mentioned your plans for 2020, and I laughed. Nothing in 2020 happened as we expected! Oh, hindsight!
I love Mrs. Pearson! My great grandmother was a Pearson and, all the women in our family love hats and birds👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
You have a very cool family!!!!!!!! Thanks for the fun comment!
You two ladies are nothing short of amazing. I’ve enjoyed this ‘parade’ for three days …over and over again. It doesn’t even stop there
because the energy you’ve generated will fuel 2020. Oh, I’m not alone, others here have clearly expressed the same. What a
difference you make to so many. Tremendous thanks for all the sharing and caring! Happy New Year!
okay, I am really going to cry now!!!! That is just the sweetest comment Lori. Thank you so much. To think that we brought any amount of happiness to others is just amazing. Stand by for another parade during our next video!!!! We have a really great designer picked out. Wishing you a very Happy New Year!!!!
Thank you for these wonderful videos - you guys rock! First of all I was raised on Tab and didn’t know they even sold it anymore so excited to see that. Second I cannot believe your stash - can I just come roll around in a big pile of samplers. I have just started to like samplers..now I am crazy for them - so total enabling! So enjoyed your enthusiasm for stitching and the amazing craft room. What is not to love - hope you all keep going..thanks again as I know these are a lot of work
Thanks so much for your kind comments!!!!!! We have no plans to stop anytime soon and do not foresee running out of stash and WIPs! I hope that you can get Tab wherever you are!!!! It is hard to find in some places. Luckily, I am on to a good supply here. Until next time, Happy Stitching!!!
I'm always so excited when I see you've posted a new video.You never disappoint. Such lovely stitching! THANK you ladies. Happy New Year.
Thank you for your very kind words Polly!!!!! Happy New Year!
Beautiful Stitching ladies! I want ALL the things! You two are so stinking cute!! I think you should get TAB to endorse your videos. LOL!! I remember drinking TAB in the 70's but didn't realize they still made it. Love watching your videos. Happy New Year!
Great idea!!! That way we could spread the love of Tab!!! If they stop making it I will be bereft!!! Happy New Year Cindy!!!!
You are beautiful ladies with lovely finishes, projects,stash,etc! I so enjoy your videos!
Thank you so much Georgia!!! That is so nice of you to say! Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!
What a fabulous floss tube❣️We are so lucky to have so many talented designers. I don’t think I can pick just one designer. But, I own so many Scarlett House! Wishing you both a happy, healthy New Year.
Happy New Year Becky!! Yes, we are so lucky to have so many wonderful designers and charts!!!
I enjoyed seeing the two photos that you put at the beginning of the video with everything organized. Thank you for sharing Wips and finishes. Now, I have to get out some of my Scarlet House patterns and add them to my 2020 list. It is wonderful to watch your longer videos. Please keep them coming. Thank you! Happy New Year!
Thanks so much Marjorie!!!!! Glad you have some Scarlett House in your stash!!!! Happy New Year!!!
I just love when you do a new Flosstube! So enjoyable from beginning to end, chock full of beautiful projects and finishes, helpful tips and information, and just FUN! Thank you for doing these!!!
Thank you so much Elizabeth for your very lovely comment!!! Happy New Year!
Happy New Years to Both of you Ladies. All I can say is double wowza!!!!!! So inspiring to see all the wonderful starts and finishes. Those not feeling it and wrong fabric helps tremendously too. Another Great Video. Linda m
Thanks so much Linda!!!! Wishing you a very Happy New Year!
What can I say but WOW.....so many wonderful pieces that I didn’t know I need! I only have 2 samplers started going into 2020 ....and would really like to finish them before I start another one .....but man...the Scarlett house is calling me🤣.....have a wonderful new year! Just enjoy you guys so much!
Thanks so much Terri!!!!! I know what you mean about The Scarlett House calling to you...so many great samplers and projects. If it helps at all...I wish I would have finished a few more things before starting 10 others...maybe you can not follow my lead and be more productive....??? Hugs!!!
Goodness gracious, both of you do the most breathtaking work! I've been glued to my computer screen the entire time, watching as each new project is more amazing than the last! Thank you for taking the time to share with us --- What master needle workers you both are!
Thanks so much Barbara!!!!!!!! What kind words. Wishing you happy stitching in 2020!!

What an episode! I am so into red stitching thanks to you guys (closing in on a finish on Antonetta Bove). I adore everything you showed! Thank you! Lisa
Thanks Lisa!!!! I love Antonnetta Bove!!!!! I was about to start her the other day..... Wishing you a very Happy New Year!!!
I shouldn't have watched this before I go to bed...I'll never sleep dreaming of all of your beautiful stitching and charts you had!!! Thank you so much and I hope you eventually made it out from behind all the piles of goodness! LOL HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
We made it out!!! But now I want to go back and be in a stitching cockpit!!!! Thanks for your kind comments!!! Happy New Year Diana!

Thanks so much Kristy!!!! We love to share the joy of needlework. Happy New Year!
Happy New Year to you both. I just love your videos, I look forward to them every couple of weeks. Love to see all your beautiful stitching...two lovely ladies. Best wishes and health and happiness for 2020....carolxstitch xx
Thanks so much Carol!!!! We look forward to making the videos too! Happy New Year!
Can’t say enough about how much I enjoy watching you both.
Again and again....
You are an inspiration for both your stitching and your friendship, thanks for taking the time to put these videos out!
Thank you so much Rebecca for these very kind and heartwarming words! Happy New Year and Happy Stitching!!!
Thank you again for the most enjoyable flosstube. Girls, I wish I could come and visit with you. Everything you both do is just wonderful. Happy New Year to you both. Looking forward to your next video. Much love,
Thanks so much Elizabeth!!!! I wish you could come visit too!!! Until then...Happy Stitching!!!
Oh, I have a Raskog tip: I got little hooks from IKEA (kitchen area) and put them on the side to hang my hoops. it works wonderfully!
I've kept my 2020 stitching plans very simple (for now) and I'm just going to focus on the SAL from Modern Folk Embroidery. But you are really making me want to stitch something from Hands Across the Sea! So many choices.
(I'm stopping the video at the parade because it's already 1.30am here, but yay, more for tomorrow! Thank you so much for your videos, it's always a special treat.)
Thanks for the tip Caroline!!!! Great idea!!!! I think you should add one HATS sampler to your rotation!!!! There are a couple of smaller ones if that helps! Thank you for your kind comments. Happy New Year!
WOW! And wow again. Thank you B and L for an inspiring walk through your wonderful samplers. Indeed my mind was blown away! Wishing you and yours a very Happy New Year.
Thanks Judy!! Hope you found one you cannot live without! Happy New Year!!!
OMG! You are such enablers! I love it! You both do such beautiful work. Thanks for sharing with us.
Thanks Robin!!! We are here to serve!! Happy New Year!!!
AMAZING... just AMAZING!!! I thoroughly enjoyed this video and can't wait for your next one... Happy New Year and Happy Stitching!
Thank you so much Carol!!!!!! We can't wait to do another one too!!! Happy New Year!!
Just finished your wonderful video. I must say first WOW!! I have never in my life seen so many beautiful charts. I know it was a long video but I loved it so much. You two ladies have some awesome talent. Thanks for taking the daunting task of sharing your stash!! I truly hope to meet you both one day!!
Thank you so much!!!! I hope we meet too!!!!! Wishing you a very Happy New Year!
You both saved me today!!! What a pleasure to spend time with you
Thank you for showing all the samplers and for telling us when there is one over one stitching. This is very helpful:) I’m an Aida stitcher and can never tell if a chart has one over one stitching. Looking forward to seeing you again
Happy New Year!
Barb
Thanks so much Barb!!!! I hate over one stitching but do it begrudgingly. Ugh. I think we will always remember to say when there is some because neither of us really like it. Wishing you a very Happy New Year!!!
Ladies, I LOVE watching you- I had to stop watching the Packer game because your new video came on. I am watching you for the third time. I love everything you are planning to stitch in 2020. Happy New Year!
Wow!!! You chose us over the Packers!!!! That is a high compliment because we know Packer fans are serious fans!!! Thanks so much for your kind comments. Wishing you a very Happy New Year RoseAnn!!!
Hi ladies. I don’t know much about the two of you but I have to say you are a delight. I just get tickled watching you and it makes me happy. Which is very much needed now a days. So thank you
Thank you so much for your kind words Christina!!!!! Happy New Year!! May this be a kind year to us all.
So funny, I have been on a Scarlett House kick lately myself! I have A Perfect World all kitted up and ready to start, I am stitching Elizabeth Hunter as.we.speak, and I just ordered Mary Hawley and Mary Cook (yes. I am certifiably nuts. Don't tell.) : ) And, you don't want to see my wip basket... my list of 2020 'to stitch' numbers 19 right now (to be adjusted. Especially after watching YOU guys!!! : ), and so far I listed 14 'almost done, to finish this year!!!'.... sigh....I think it was Carol (Saltbox Stitcher) who called this a 'disease'. Well my only hope then for a remedy, is to watch more of your videos! You girls rock : )
Thanks so much Theresa!! Yes, we are all "diseased!!!!" I started Elizabeth Hunter too!!! But if we didn't have all this stitching to work on and plan about....we would have a worse disease I fear!!! Wishing you a very Happy New Year full of WIPS, stash and planning!!
You hit it out of the park again!!! Have a happy happy New Year and look forward to seeing you next year! I finished Mary Miller last night!!! Starting Savior's Praise on New Year's Day. Happy Stitching!! Thanks for the inspiration!
Thanks Suzanne!!! Congratulations on finishing the beautiful Mary Miller!!!! And you have picked a wonderful sampler to start tomorrow!!!! Happy New Year!!!
Always a pleasure being enabled by you two. Happy New Year thX for the parade. Wonderful stash
Thanks Patti!!! Happy New Year!
So enjoyed all the things today! I have more to add to my list to buy! Happy New Year 💕Michele
ooooppps!!! But glad you enjoyed everything!!!!! Happy New Year Michele!
00.Just subscribed to you both. Must say I am exhausted just watching you both! I no longer feel guilty about my stuff after watching you! Happy New Year and enjoy the stitching!
Thanks so much!!! We aim to relieve the guilt of stitchers across the world. No amount of stash is too much!!! Wishing you a very Happy New Year!!!

Oh how I love you two gals. I so look forward to your visit with us. What a joy you bring to me. I enjoyed today’s video so much; hated for it to end. Happy Stitching in the New Year.
We kind of hated to stop talking about stitching too!!!! We could go on and on. Thank you for your very kind words. Hugs and Happy New Year!!
I just love to watch you guys. You just crack me up. I do no even like samplers or primitive stuff but I love you guys. Amazing
Thanks Suzie!!! That is a high compliment!!! Happy New Year!!!!
I loved every second! More, more, more! You two are the GREATEST! I so hope to get to a retreat to meet you someday... See you in the new year. Sally in Northern California 😁
Thank you so much Sally!!!!! What kind words. I hope we get to meet too!!! Where in Northern California do you live??? I went to college at UC Davis.
Brenda and the Serial Starter I, unfortunately live in Stockton and care for my 95 year old mother. So tired of Stockton and no LNS except for Alameda and hate driving into the Bay Area even though my daughter and grandkids live in The City. All my friends went to UC Davis (Heather Fargo and others), but I wanted Santa Cruz and ended up at San Francisco State and Lone Mountain and finishing at UOP. Then again to SFSU for MA. I have a sweet little cabin in Cazadero near the Russian River...that’s my favorite place to be...under the redwoods with rain. Have a great stitchy winter. I am a retired teacher, so lots of time, but limited funds. I’ve signed up for the various newsletters you recommended...maybe someday... Happy New Year! 🎉. Sally in Northern California (sounds better than Stockton) 😁
Oh how I love watching you two ladies! I just can't wait until your next floss tube video. Happy new year to you both.
Thank you so much!!!! Happy New Year to you too!!!!
Wow! So many stunning projects and charts!!! I look forward starting Isabella Fox with you on 1st of January! Happy New Year to you both!!! x
That is so exciting!!!!!! I can't wait to start. Wishing you a very Happy New Year!!!
Wow....I just love watching your videos and have learned so much from you both. Happy New Year...hope it full of joy, blessings and of course...lots of stitching time!!
Thanks so much Jonnie!!!!! We wish the exact same for you! Happy New Year!
Oh me, I was going to be on a spending freeze to get ready for Market 2020, but I saw several Scarlett House pieces I gotta get in case they disappear. Thank you so much for your videos! They make me want to stitch faster and faster to complete so many pretty things.
Darlene in Georgia
Thanks Darlene!!!!! I know, we need to be on lock down until market too.......we'll see how that goes......Wishing you a very Happy New Year!
You ladies rock! Only one question...how do you find time to breathe? Wow....your WIPs and Hauls make me feel so much better, when I get overwhelmed with my ( much less) WIPS...then I go n buy more! Happy New Year!
Thanks Cathryn!!! The only way we can breathe and live is if we have plenty of stash around us and in our heads!!! Seriously, it is a running theme in our heads all day every day!!!! So much fun!!!! Happy New Year!
Listen here ladies, I could watch/ listen to you all day! You are both inspiring and have made me want to attempt a sampler! I seriously love you both! Happy New Year, Brenda and Laura!
Thanks so much Kristi!!!!!!!!!! Yes, start a sampler!!!!! Let us know which one you choose!!!!! So excited for you! Wishing you a very Happy New Year!
You two ladies are a definite favorite for me and I thoroughly enjoy everything you share! You two have so much to offer the community and I'm so glad you started a floss tube!
Thank you for your very, very kind words!!!! That is so nice of you to say. We sure appreciate it! Wishing you a very Happy New Year!
Just wonderful to see all your starts and kits... makes my stash look small, but I’m working on it...a very happy new year to both of you and your families
Happy New Year Susan!!!! As long as you have one BAP in your stash you are probably set for a decade!!!
Love watching ...I have to sit with pen and paper when watching , not helping my addiction..so enjoyable .Happy New Year stitching !
We are all in this addiction together right Carol??? Isn't it the best!!! Happy New Year to you!
You two are just amazing as I have said time and time again. Just love seeing your show and tell items, your finished pieces and plans for the future. I started using the Needlework Press Calendar a year ago and bought one for this coming year too. What fun to record daily just to see what you can accomplish. While you ladies were showing your items, I decided to run a total on the 2019 calendar; 92 finishes. Some small and some large and no unfinished items, these are done! So, just look what we accomplish in a year's time and the record to show. Wishing both of you a very prosperous and happy New Year ahead. Hope your needles will fly and look forward to the next video. Thanks so much for the lovely break with you both; Norma, Boise, ID.
Wowza!!!!!! Norma!! You sure finished a lot of projects!!! How wonderful!!!!! Hope I can finish a fraction of that in the new year (Laura)!!!! Happy New Year!! Hugs!!!
I know I keep saying this--you girls are just the best! Great plans, choices, finished pieces. And Nicola Parkman, Hands Across the Sea is one of the most approachable people ever! If you get stumped, contact her, she will help, she just wants people to stitch. Thanks for naming linen and Scarlett House is one of my favorite designers.
Thanks Betty!!!!! Yes, we had the great good fortune to meet Nicola and she is wonderful. So glad Scarlett House is a favorite of yours too! Happy New Year!
Ladies, Happy New Year! I lost count of how many times I had to pause the video to take notes of what to buy in the new year! Your finishes are beautiful and I so enjoyed seeing you!!!
Thank you so much dear buddy!!!!! We can't wait to see you in person in August!!!! We can kit stuff up!!! and hang out and laugh and stitch!!!
Thanks again for another awesome video. I don't think either of you have enough samplers to do, you need more! Everything finished was so beautiful! Happy New Year to both of you, visit with you next year!
Thanks so much Christine!!! You know we will need more when the market releases start coming out!!! Wishing you a very Happy New Year and hope to see you soon!!!
You ladies are such a joy and an inspiration! Love everything you show and you’ve stitched. We stitch what we want and have plenty of backups if we change our minds! 😊
You said it best Jaime!!!!!!! Plenty of backups if we change our minds!!! Thanks so much!!! Happy New Year!
You ladies are the Best! I met you in May at Stitchville in Minnesota, I was standing in line to pay and you were behind me and were attending the retreat, I was so excited to talk to you about Priscilla and Chelsea, then you are on Flosstube and I was so happy, I watch everyone of your videos at least twice you have given me inspiration to stitch lots of my stash. Thank you so much for your videos 😘 Shelley Reynolds
That is so exciting Shelley!!! To know that you have taken some inspiration from us is the highest compliment!!!! I am so glad we met at the retreat!! I wish I could remember the exact encounter!!!! If I saw your face I bet I would (this is Laura by the way). Wasn't that a fun retreat??? I love Priscilla and Chelsea so much!!! Happy New Year!!!
Catching up on my Flosstubers and as always, you ladies kept me GLUED to your every word! My list is looooong for further projects now! Lol~ Looking forward to 2020 with you guys🥰♥️🥰
Thanks Faye!!!!!!!! I bet we will be stitching a lot of the same things!!!! Happy New Year!!!!
