I'm still on video #90, so I haven't seen this one yet. I just wanted to jump in and say that I had never done a reproduction sampler. I never really had any interest in stitching them. Until I started watching your flosstube. You have inspired me to do a reproduction sampler. I started (barely though) Fiona Rutherford from The Wishing Thorn. Thank you for the inspiration.
This makes us so excited! Thrilled!!!!! So happy that you want to stitch a sampler. Fiona Rutherford is a perfect sampler too!!!!! Pinning this comment so that we can always remember this moment. Thank you!
Your comment about loving being home warmed my heart because to me there is nothing better! Since retiring and my hubby passing away, I’ve become a real homebody and love it!
If Mike doesn’t think you’re funny, he’s crazy! The endorphins flowed as I laughed and smiled through your podcast! You are both such treasures 🥰 Thank you for the gift of joy you give us!
Thank you Bernice!!!! Mike just wants us to be more "jokey" sometimes, but I tell him that people like us just the way we are. But don't be concerned, he is a very good egg who fully supports our floss tube.
That was the quickest two hours I've spent in a long time. I laughed, smiled until my jaws hurt & had tears in my eyes a few times. Absolutely loved watching you, hearing about your travels, seeing your stitching, enjoying your friendship that you share with us all so willingly. I live being part of this community. Take care, best wishes from 🇮🇪
Thank you for your kindness regarding my presentation on Irish Samplers and for mentioning the Sampler school workshop at Hobbyhouse! You two are the best love you both!❤☘️
Just finished watching, and wanted to say thank you for the mention. Thank you so much for reaching out to me there in the room as well. The Sampler Symposium was my first-ever retreat, and I was much overtaken by everything and everyone. I am genuinely touched that I was accepted and loved in that room during the Show & Share. Very healing and very grateful for you and Laura.
That Michigan game just about knocked my socks off!! I kept saying to my husband-- just imagine how Brenda is cheering and feeling so happy! Glad to see both of you back, I have missed your smiling faces.
So glad you ladies are back. Laura!! WOW! I’m drinking a Diet Coke in your honor of all your finishes. Now I’m going to organize my WIPS the same way. Samantha is a good Flosstube person to watch. Hope both of you have a fabulous New Year, full of awesome stitching. From-The Tab shirt woman who met you Hobby House Needlearts. ❤❤
Glad you are back! Brenda, it was so good to meet you at The Attic. I'm the one from Michigan. Hopefully some day I will meet Laura, too. It was an honor to meet you and to go to The Attic. Two things marked off of my Stitchy Bucket List. :)
So much fun! Glad to see you back again. I’m a home bird too Brenda. No matter how good some place is, I just want to go home ☺️ Happy 2024 to you both.
First time here for me…love it! You guys have such a great friendship and fun together. Amazed at how much stitching is going on. But then, I’m a newbie, with 1 project down and one about to start 😊
It was so lovely to see you and hear about all your lovely adventures! I took in an hour yesterday, and saved the rest for today. So glad I did! Made a promise to myself in mid-November that I would not buy anything else for a year. Sigh. Maybe I can get something for my birthday? Laura - so happy for your progress!! Wonderfully encouraging. Looking forward to seeing you in two weeks!
It's so good to see you. I'm happy that you'll be back in 2 weeks. You were missed. What a wonderful trip Brenda. Laura, I loved your finishes and all of your Christmas patterns. Happy stitching!
I couldn't wait until tonight to watch, so I'm watching at work with the door closed. Sometimes you just gotta break the rules with Brenda and Laura!!!!
Another great floss tube! And Brenda I really want to thank you for your special comments regarding Jean and how she creates such a unique and very special place at the Attic where samplers and friendships rule. You speak for all of us!!!
OH MY Goodness Gals.....How I have missed you! I would have watched for another 2 hours!! Brenda, I know you had a fabulous vacation, but I was thrilled to see how happy you are to be HOME. I'm right there with you..there is NO place like Home (& in my stitching chair). There are so many who don't understand but then when we meet those who do, it is a beautiful gift! Laura, your new found plan for organizing/stitching/finishing is a joy to see and I hope you keep doing what you love. There is a thrill of the start, joy in the journey of stitching & such a sense of accomplishment in the Finish! Your video was chocked full of goodness, laughter, and my personal favorite...budget busting shopping! I loved every minute of it and can't wait to see you again in 2 weeks. Stay warm & stitch on!! xoxo
So nice to see you back! That was a very quick two hours, filled with lots of joy, laughter and stitchy goodness. Thanks for the fun time, and happy stitching, Arleen
It was so good to have both of you back! Brenda, what exciting travels you had! Don't know how you managed to get all those goodies back home with you! Laura, you had some beautiful finishes! Can't wait to see all the things you didn't get to show today. Hope it warms up for you both soon!
Welcome back! So pleased to hear you had a great trip. Your treasures from both London and Paris will bring you so much joy. Thank you for sharing. Your stitching as always inspires me to keep stitching. Laura, I really am impressed with all your finishes.
Happy to see you girls back! Brenda I am a homebody too especially on this cold weather we are having. A good snow day and some stitching is my favorite day!
I enjoyed so much all your news of trips, getting stitching projects finished, shopping hauls and those cute girl bobbin holders with Brenda and the Serial starter on them! Super cute but our Laura will be needing to change her name to Serial Finisher ha ha! Yeah for Michigan’s win and Brenda you’re such a great fan all through the season. Oh and the Rose Band Sampler pattern from The Attic is gorgeous as well as so many more new patterns you shared. I’m trying very hard to not add to my large collection of patterns but I’m sorely tempted today to buy all the pretty things😀. Enjoy your stitching time until February’s next floss tube.
So good to see to both, we have a storm blowing through, but thankfully maintained power to watch to the end. A real tonic on a Sunday night, I’ve missed you both.
Lots of goodness to see today. I enjoyed seeing you again. Laura, I'm impressed with your finishes, and Brenda, I'm so glad you enjoyed your trips. Stay warm and keep stitching!
Happy to see you girls! Amazing stitchery! I am a homebody too… one day I needed milk for my coffee and just wanted to stay home and stitch so I used a can of whipped cream for my coffee ..😳😱.. delicious coffee and stitched all day! Lol
Souch a great 2 hours! Had to watch you in installments, but loved it. Happy birthday to both of you. Laura, you go girl! You are making so much progress. Brenda, glad you had an awesome trip. Looking forward to seeing more in 2 weeks. I too am a homebody.
Me too!!Home is the best place in the world to be. Stitching on my grandson sweatshirt and watching you gals. Happy to see ya. Happy Birthday to you both and to me. 🎉
Hi ladies. So nice to see you again. What an amazing collection from The Attic…I feel I missed out on so much…but it’s been added to the list!😂. Yet another great video. Thank you
What a great way to spend my Sunday afternoon!! That time went by in a flash! You two are a joy and it's wonderful to laugh with you. And Laura, great finishes. Thank you for being such a warm and encouraging part of the stitching community -- we are not all the same skill level or same vein of interests, but we all love stitching, and that is what counts. Hugs to you both.
I missed you girls!! Brenda, sounds like your trip was great! Well deserved. Laura, I cannot wait to watch you sort your WIP's. I always make sure I have paper and pen beside me when I watch you. I have to jot down projects! Thank you for making me laugh out loud!!!
You have been missed, every week I’m looking for your floss tube. Glad you have a wonderful time and Laura you did so much beautiful finishing of things you have been neglecting. Can wait to see what you do in the next 2 weeks. Happy stitching.
Glad you are back. I went it Ireland last year for 10 day and stitched 2nd day and then after that I dropped into bed when the day of touring was over. Note to self don’t bring stitching on vacation.
You are great, you are funny, you are entertaining 😄, and you inspire me to spend money 😮😅 and to keep stitching. Now I have to travel to look for the Liberty 😂
So glad to see you both this afternoon! I sat down today to attempt to put in the final over one stitches on the Scarlett House Home is where my Samplers are - I had my size 10 beading needle all ready to go -- and then Brenda said she was going to skip the over one stitches - Thank you Brenda! I made some modifications and now the little sampler is done! And Laura! Who are you? So many finishes! Wow - they are all wonderful! Thank you Brenda for describing the wonderful atmosphere at the Attic - I hope to get there some day. I look forward to seeing you in two weeks - a month was too long. Stay wam - I thought 21 degrees in Northern Virginia was bad!
Loved this Floss Tube! Such great info on tons of charts, and loved all your new haul. Im on a “no buy any stitching charts” in January and can’t wait til it’s over. Sounds like the retreat was perfect! Can’t wait to see your next floss tube. ❤❤
OMG. Wowsers. This episode absolutely blew me away. How can you squeeze any more into your homes? Glad the trips were so fabulous. I would move to England in a heartbeat but.... Thanks girls.
I’ve been checking all day every few minutes for your video!! I’ve been in withdrawals!! The Attic is on my bucket list. I have to save up to go So I can shop and shop!
I've missed you girls! What a great show you had today. Loved all of your stitching, patterns, threads - all of it! Thanks for the video see you in two weeks. ps happy belated birthday to both of you!
Goodness, this is great on another level, too. Laura looks a bit like my sister, who I only see every few years. It's touching to see someone who looks like her. 😊
So funny… I just picked up my phone to glance at something and there were your sunny smiles!!🎉🎉🎉 I literally said “whaaaat??!!” And Laura says “guess what? We’re back” I am so happy! Yahoo now on to watch before football watching tonight :-) here we go!!…….
Thank you for watching Celeste!!! By the way I am now obsessed with Pineberry Lane Sarah Barker!!!! I know I have her somewhere in my stash but have to go home and find her. You showed her on your most recent FT and she is so lovely!!!!
There is no place like home with all our creature comforts and stitching! Thank you for sharing all those amazing samplers, can I buy some extra time! Happy stitching💚
Beautiful gifts beautiful sampler patterns! Laura, yoiur finishes are BEAUTIFUL!!!! I am going to Paris in the fall, fingers crossed I have some free time to do some crafty shopping.
You are both so sweet in your expressions of love and appreciation for the stitching community. Brenda’s comment about her “samplers lasting longer because the kids won’t give them to Good Will” made me laugh! Thanks for inviting us all into your world.
Delighted to visit with you now you're back . Your friendship and faithful cheering on of other stitchers, designers and makers is precious gift that's so wonderful. 2 hours of smiling and laughing as I stitched along, thank you ladies. Blessings to you both from Northern Ireland xx
So good to see you, again! I haven’t managed to watch the whole thing yet, but Brenda, I gotta say I can totally relate to staying home. I want to travel the world, but at the same time I don’t like to travel and love staying home. LOL! Quite the conundrum.
Wow, quickest 2 hours ever! If Mike doesn't think you're funny, then he is lacking a sense of humor. You two crack me up non-stop. I love it! So many beautiful things to share. Great job on setting and achieving your goals, Laura. Great tips on the silk, Brenda. Can't wait for next time.
Another wonderful video ladies. Keep up the amazing stitching. Bob and I want to thank you so much for the shoutout. Our Etsy shop has been so very, very busy this week….ALL thanks to you Laura. We LOVE you!!
OMG, we must be sisters from another Mother! I miss Tab, All My Children, and MOST of all Marshall Fields Dept store in downtown Chicago! Every year my mom would let us play hooky from school and go downtown to see the Christmas windows and have lunch in the Walnut Room. Those were the days!! 😊
Thank you my friends for the mention🥰 You guys were channeling your inner Liz in this one! I love all the banter! Mike would love this one because you guys brought the laughs for sure!!!! So many things added to my must buy list! Loved every minute visiting with you both😘
@@brendaandtheserialstarter2410 haha until my husband asks who are Brenda & Laura??? lol ;) I will def be purchasing one this month, just… which one? ;)
I want to preface this comment by saying my husband has a slight hearing loss…I was watching this video and he was watching with me. Every time you said Gumnuts my husband would chuckle. Towards the end of the video he says “what are they saying? It sounds like numbnuts “ 🤣🤣🤣 Great video and love seeing the “numbnuts” and all of your other haul. Great job on the finishes!
So glad you're back! Those 4 weeks seemed like an eternity! When I first found you on RUclips, I went back and watched all your previous videos. You two are my favorite stitchers to watch! I have been hesitant to comment before, because Brenda - I am a very proud alumni of The Ohio State University and bleed Scarlet and Gray. BUT IT DOESN'T MATTER - I just enjoy you guys so much!! Congrats on the Natty!
Thank you for your kind words Brenda and Laura ❤❤ I’m thrilled you found WIP inspiration from my 10 starts/10 middles /10 finishes idea 💡 !! I enjoyed your video and company today as usual ❤❤❤ Until next time, happy stitching !!
What wonderful new treasures and gifts. You brighten so many lives in the Cross-Stitch community. You motivate us to try new things and you help out lots of LNS’ because we see new things that we ‘NEED’! 😉😉😉 Can’t wait to see you in two weeks.
Loved your recap of Sampler Symposium Brenda. I agree that seeing the next generation empracing this craft is so heart-warming. Laura, great finishes and plans. I'm giving myself stitching assignments too but seem to overestimate what I can get done.
I'm still on video #90, so I haven't seen this one yet. I just wanted to jump in and say that I had never done a reproduction sampler. I never really had any interest in stitching them. Until I started watching your flosstube. You have inspired me to do a reproduction sampler. I started (barely though) Fiona Rutherford from The Wishing Thorn. Thank you for the inspiration.

Your comment about loving being home warmed my heart because to me there is nothing better! Since retiring and my hubby passing away, I’ve become a real homebody and love it!
Sending you a big warm hug and our sympathy on the passing of your husband. It is good to know that you are enjoying your home and being a homebody.
If Mike doesn’t think you’re funny, he’s crazy! The endorphins flowed as I laughed and smiled through your podcast! You are both such treasures 🥰 Thank you for the gift of joy you give us!

Thank you for the little signs you make to give us the names of different floss tubes to watch. It is so helpful.
Thank you Suzann!
First time here for me…love it! You guys have such a great friendship and fun together. Amazed at how much stitching is going on. But then, I’m a newbie, with 1 project down and one about to start 😊

Thank you Michele!
WOW, just WOW! Fabulous floss tube! I’m going to need a nap!

We took the kids to London and Paris this Summer and it was a trip of a lifetime! Such a joy that you were able to do that.
Yay!!!!! Trips are so fabulous!
It was so lovely to see you and hear about all your lovely adventures! I took in an hour yesterday, and saved the rest for today. So glad I did! Made a promise to myself in mid-November that I would not buy anything else for a year. Sigh. Maybe I can get something for my birthday? Laura - so happy for your progress!! Wonderfully encouraging.

You will be so proud of yourself if you stick to your plan Marcia!! I think you should make an exception for your birthday though!!!
I was so happy to see you ladies! I really missed seeing you. I totally understand being happy to be at home. I am the same way.
Thank you Cathy!

Yes! Break those rules for cross stitch content! Thank you Laurie!
You guys are a hoot!
Thank you Melinda!
Another great floss tube! And Brenda I really want to thank you for your special comments regarding Jean and how she creates such a unique and very special place at the Attic where samplers and friendships rule. You speak for all of us!!!

Yay!!!!! Keep stitching! Thank you Gloria!

Wow! That is so cool!!! They say everyone has a double!
Missed your smiling faces and laughter. There are no words for all the amazing things you showed. Way to go Laura for your finishes.❤

Welcome back! Glad you enjoyed your travels Brenda. You two are always a joy to see and listen too!
Thank you so much Jeanne!
You are both so sweet in your expressions of love and appreciation for the stitching community. Brenda’s comment about her “samplers lasting longer because the kids won’t give them to Good Will” made me laugh! Thanks for inviting us all into your world.
Thank you for joining us Leslie!
Love that you two are back! What an awesome Flosstube! I love your long ones as I just spend the time stitching while I watch.❤❤❤
Thank you Karen!
Delighted to visit with you now you're back . Your friendship and faithful cheering on of other stitchers, designers and makers is precious gift that's so wonderful. 2 hours of smiling and laughing as I stitched along, thank you ladies. Blessings to you both from Northern Ireland xx
Thank you so much Aimee!!!!!! So kind of you!
Well worth waiting for, thank you ladies for a wonderful afternoon ! 💕🪡🧵
Thank you for watching Helga!
So good to see you, again! I haven’t managed to watch the whole thing yet, but Brenda, I gotta say I can totally relate to staying home. I want to travel the world, but at the same time I don’t like to travel and love staying home. LOL! Quite the conundrum.
We have that same conundrum!!!!
Wow, quickest 2 hours ever! If Mike doesn't think you're funny, then he is lacking a sense of humor. You two crack me up non-stop. I love it! So many beautiful things to share. Great job on setting and achieving your goals, Laura. Great tips on the silk, Brenda. Can't wait for next time.
Thank you Emmy Rose!!!!!
Another wonderful video ladies. Keep up the amazing stitching. Bob and I want to thank you so much for the shoutout. Our Etsy shop has been so very, very busy this week….ALL thanks to you Laura. We LOVE you!!
That is so wonderful to hear Pam!!!!!!!!!! I hope that it stays busy with all of your wonderful products!!!!!! Sending love to you!
OMG, we must be sisters from another Mother! I miss Tab, All My Children, and MOST of all Marshall Fields Dept store in downtown Chicago! Every year my mom would let us play hooky from school and go downtown to see the Christmas windows and have lunch in the Walnut Room. Those were the days!! 😊
We are definitely separated at birth Elizabeth!!!!! Oh those wonderful memories! Nothing like it anymore.
Thanks for the excellent review. Can’t wait to see more of your stash. Glad to see you both back and healthy …missed you.
Thank you so much!
Thank you my friends for the mention🥰 You guys were channeling your inner Liz in this one! I love all the banter! Mike would love this one because you guys brought the laughs for sure!!!! So many things added to my must buy list! Loved every minute visiting with you both😘
Thank you dear buddy!!!!!
Another great episode ladies! You leave me wanting to buy all the samplers lol!
Thank you!!!!! and you have our permission to buy all the samplers!
@@brendaandtheserialstarter2410 haha until my husband asks who are Brenda & Laura??? lol ;) I will def be purchasing one this month, just… which one? ;)
I want to preface this comment by saying my husband has a slight hearing loss…I was watching this video and he was watching with me. Every time you said Gumnuts my husband would chuckle. Towards the end of the video he says “what are they saying? It sounds like numbnuts “ 🤣🤣🤣 Great video and love seeing the “numbnuts” and all of your other haul. Great job on the finishes!
My husband thought the same thing.😄
..Thanku so much Brenda & Laura for another wonderful flosstube… I enjoyed every moment.. 🧵🪡
Thank you so much for watching!
So glad you're back! Those 4 weeks seemed like an eternity! When I first found you on RUclips, I went back and watched all your previous videos. You two are my favorite stitchers to watch! I have been hesitant to comment before, because Brenda - I am a very proud alumni of The Ohio State University and bleed Scarlet and Gray. BUT IT DOESN'T MATTER - I just enjoy you guys so much!! Congrats on the Natty!
I went back too!! I finished over christmas and then they were gone for a month, bad timing on my part!!!😂
Thank you Leslie!!!!! I know you and Brenda can put aside your college rivalries for stitching!
@@scoobers3493 Thanks for watching all of that!!!!!
You two are amazing, have a wonderful two weeks ♥️♥️
Thank you Christine!
Thank you for your kind words Brenda and Laura ❤❤ I’m thrilled you found WIP inspiration from my 10 starts/10 middles /10 finishes idea 💡 !! I enjoyed your video and company today as usual ❤❤❤ Until next time, happy stitching !!
Thank you for all the inspiration and enthusiasm you provide Samantha!!!!! Hugs!!!!!
What wonderful new treasures and gifts. You brighten so many lives in the Cross-Stitch community. You motivate us to try new things and you help out lots of LNS’ because we see new things that we ‘NEED’! 😉😉😉 Can’t wait to see you in two weeks.
Thank you so so much!!! Your comments are the ones that keep us going!
Loved your recap of Sampler Symposium Brenda. I agree that seeing the next generation empracing this craft is so heart-warming. Laura, great finishes and plans. I'm giving myself stitching assignments too but seem to overestimate what I can get done.
Thank you Roberta!!!!! I wish we could stitch more hours in the day!
Liberty is absolutely magical! I have been there twice now.
It looks fabulous!!!! So happy Brenda got to go!
@@brendaandtheserialstarter2410 Me too! I wish everyone could visit London and Liberty at least once.
Thank you so much for visiting and sharing ❤ you guys make me laugh so much 😂
Thank you for watching!
