    Congratulations on your second grand baby. Wonderful news! You must be so excited. The piece you did for your dad is georgeous. And I think its those little unperfections that make it really special, because it tells the story of your stitching career. We never stop learning new techniques this includes washing and taking care for our pieces. I love that you are still such a dedicated stitcher. All your pieces are very beautiful.

      Thank you so much! You are so right - it’s nice to have a story and we do keep learning all the time. Happy stitching 🥰

    Thank you for your video. That piece you did for your Father, and his unknown connection is amazing. The piece is beautiful, it does look like a drawing! As always I so enjoy my visits with you, and seeing your progress on your lovely projects. Take care and happy stitching!

      Thank you so much! It will always be a special piece to me, and now even more so considering the connection. I’m sure that somehow, somewhere, he made the connection and helped me choose it! Thank you for your continued support - happy stitching 🥰

    So glad to catch your video again, love your projects and your presentations. I love the Fairy Garden, it is beautiful. And that Christmas one is beyond comprehension. I found the pattern or one near it but decided it was way ahead of me--I'm not a full coverage stitcher. Congrats on your new grandchild on the way too!! Have a stitchy time!! See you soon!!!

    • @TheFlosstubeStitcher
      @TheFlosstubeStitcher  Год назад

      Thank you so much! Christmas House May look intimidating but it is on the smaller scale of full coverage. Maybe one day, when you’re ready, you might like to try it. I’m so looking forward to doing the rooms, and hoping the confetti isn’t too crazy 😂

    I adore your videos Carolyn! The Cominos house was beautiful and so meaningful for your family! In the future, please don’t sit with your back to the light. Your work and threads were almost impossible to distinguish! Congratulations on the new Grandchild! What a blessing!!!

      Thank you so much!
      I do apologize regarding the video lighting. It was a snap decision and not one of my best ones 😂. I only have 2 big windows in my whole house and neither have direct sunlight due to balconies or pergolas. Makes for a nice cool house in summer, but pretty cold in winter! I’ll go back to doing the videos in my craft room and hope for the best 🙏🏻
      Thank you for the well wishes 🥰

    It's so good to see you again. I enjoyed hearing about your dad and seeing Caminos House again. I remember thinking when you showed it a few years ago what a fantastic piece it was. I still think it's a fantastic piece of cross stitch! Up On The Rooftop is coming along nicely. I really love the colors in it. Everytime I see it I want to stitch it! Congratulations on grandbaby number 2!! And congratulations to your daughter, son-in-law and big sister Hazel!!

      Cominos House will be a highly treasured piece for the whole family now that it has extra special meaning ❤
      I know what you mean about Up On The Rooftop, as that’s exactly how I felt when I saw Dee Stitcher stitching it. Looking forward to getting to those rooms although the confetti will be a challenge 😂

      I always thought the stills were due to the fact they have tropical storms and often flooding, but apparently it’s due to the heat. Always learning new things 😀

    I dont blame you for wanting to see the sun. All you neednis to be frontlut as well when your background is so bright. Love your wips a d seeing your progress. I too am a fan from way back, and you are one that I watch consistently. Im late watching this particular video and its almost Christmas time, so Merry Christmas.

That is indeed exciting news ❤

    I meant to comment awhile ago on your Christmas house; I have built it as a jigsaw puzzle! It is a wonderful image by Steve Crisp with lots of hidden delights to find as you go.
    And regarding your dad inspiring that lovely piece, (although unknown to you at the time) how awesome! I believe🙏💕

      Yes, I’m sure Dad played a role in choosing that particular design. 🥰🥰

    Always good to see your videos. :) Polstitches -- I'm in US so there was a bit of actual shipping delay from UK. As far as the actual fabric dyeing time, I honestly don't remember exactly how long it took, but it wasn't particularly speedy, for sure. When I emailed about "how much longer?" Jo did ask me if I was in a hurry for it. I wasn't and let her know that. Perhaps if she knows that you ARE in a hurry she might be able to speed up the process a bit? It's worth a try. Fabric is well worth the wait, tho. Congrats on new grand! How exciting for you!! Steph x

    • @TheFlosstubeStitcher
      @TheFlosstubeStitcher  Год назад

      Thank you so much for answering my question! Jo has been so amazing in answering my messages. My fabric was shipped shortly after the video and is on its way 👏🏻. I can’t wait to see it! My whole experience with Polstitches has been great - just wish the exchange rate wasn’t so terrible otherwise I’d buy more.
      Happy stitching 🥰
