My birthday is Oct 9th too! I'll be 61 this year. I'm a monogamous stitcher, but I may have to have some birthday starts along with you this year!

Thank you for sharing those smaller samplers. I have put some of them on my list! Take care.

I love your idea to do Sampler Spring! I love Fall and Halloween stitching and never want to give up September to do samplers when I could be stitching Fall. I don't tend to stitch much for spring, so sampler stitching would be perfect! Your Liberty's Welcome is looking gorgeous and I'm so impressed that you've stitched it so fast.

Love the pretty Little Sampler series!

Great to see you my friend! I love fall stitching and really “in season” stitching. Spring into Samplers is great for me!💕😊

As always a great video. Looking forward to what you pick for birthday SAL. you look too young to be turning 60! I thought you were going to say 50! My birthday is also October but in 13th. May just start along with you.

I am all for Sampler Spring! I think I’m the only stitcher who does not look forward to Fall & Christmas stitching. LOVE Spring & Summer!

I completely agree with you on sampler spring!!! Fall stitching is my absolute favorite too. Spring is definitely a hard time to figure out what to stitch so samplers are a great idea!!!

All of your stitching is beautiful…I wanted to thank you for letting us know about Autumn Is As Joyful by Lila’s Studio has a recharted verse inside the acorn…Love this chart but thought I would change that verse so happy you let us know about the new design and how to find it..Thanks again😊

I agree wholeheartedly with Sampler Spring. There is too much Fall and Christmas to stitch so I usually don't participate in Sampler September. And I'm ready for some football!

I totally agree with you about Sampler September. I want to love it because well samplers. It is just not a good time for me. I think a Spring Sampler SAL like the summer holiday one would be ideal. Why try to cram a sampler into one month? If it is over a whole season you could start and finish one while working on other things or work on all the sampler WIPs.

I can’t believe your progress on Liberty’s Welcome! It looks fantastic! Thanks for the heads up on F&R Hogbristle. I have been needing a piece. Happy stitching! Good luck with the grass! 😉

Whoa! You've made so much progress on Liberty's Welcome! That is one big girl! It looks fabulous! I also love the red currant color you're using on your Long Dog. Such a beautiful red! It's always a treat to see the lovely things you're stitching on 😊. Enjoy the rest of summer!

Your studio is looking great, I am a fan of stitching samplers in the Spring. I have so many Fall and Halloween stitches I want to accomplish. Thanks Janine

Hi Christine, lovely to see you and your stitching.

Hi Christine! Lots of fun stitching and progress! Good luck finishing up the damn grass by Labor Day. Huge houses and huge lawns! Yikes! Happy stitching til next time!! 🪡🧵🪡✂️✂️✂️❌❌❌🌻🇺🇸💕

Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful stitching ❤

Thanks for sharing your beautiful stitching ❤

Sampler Spring...YES!! I think this is perfect and that's exactly what I am going to do!!

Oh Christine ! The view is absolutely gorgeous with all your needlework and that beautiful cabinet! Your progress on Liberty’s Welcome is stunning!❤❤❤

遅れた奴は鬼に食われろ

I agree with you I think samplers should be moved to spring. There is so much going on in the fall that it is just hard to find time for samplers too. I am so sorry for you loss and I know that I am late posting this but know you have been in my thoughts and prayers during this painful journey you have been and continue to go through. God bless! Rene

Sampler Spring!!! Yes!!!!

Happy upcoming birthday. Love your etsy shop!

Nice to see you! Sampler Spring sounds perfect to me. I too would rather stitch fall in September. I am planning on only stitching on one sampler wip this year. Definitely no new starts. After joining your Sal with Autumn at Lazy Bear I continued on with it and have made great progress, so thank you! I did start your new Sal but definitely bit off more then I could chew. Next year I’ll know better but in the meantime will put in some stitches in my summer piece

Will turn 78 in November. Nice thing is I have lots of hours to cross stitch. Never get tired of it❤

I’m very sorry about your Mom..

I am so sorry you lost your mom.😢 It is so difficult. I find comfort in stitching a piece with a good ratio of color changes and block stitching. Sending hugs to you and yours.🥰

Hello Christine. My sympathy to you on the loss of your mother. My mother passed away in August and when we went through her home I also collected my cross stitch finished items and now have them in my home. Your projects are beautiful! I try to stitch daily and look forward to seeing you next April. Emily

Hi Christine! I am a bit behind on viewing my floss tubes, so just watched this one today, July 14. my sincere sympathies onthe loss of your mother. You were all blessed to have an extra 6 years to be together, and I'm sure she appreciated the love and care you gave to her. Your stitching is, as always, beautiful, and I enjoy visiting with you. Take care.

I’m so very sorry you lost your mom, my deepest condolences to you and your family. It’s hard to loose your mom, they are special. I enjoyed seeing your finishes and your wips. I think any kind of hand work with needle and thread is comforting. Take care Christine ❤️❤️

I was saddened to hear of your mom’s passing; it is always hard. I lost my mom on Christmas Eve 2023 and I truly miss her so much. She was 97 and was ready to go but it is hard. I spent a lot of time with her and we spent many hours doing our cross stitch and shopping for antiques. I would guess that you have many wonderful memories of time spent with your mom. I pray they will give you some joy and peace as you remember the special times with her. Blessings to you and your family.

Christine...so sorry to hear of your loss...my mother passed from dementia, so I understand her release...I stitch for comfort and watch any number of flosstubes because of the comfort they bring...yours being one of them...thank you for all that you share with your beautiful patterns and stitching...best wishes❤

❤🙏🏼

I’m so very sorry for your loss, Christine. Your photos at the end of your mom were precious. Thank goodness for stitching to comfort us and give us quiet moments to remember. ❤❤❤ Your projects are beautiful. Liberty’s Welcome is stunning!

You and your family will be in my prayers darling. I'm so very sorry for your loss. Comfort stitching hands down Prairie Schooler. Something about stitching any prairie schooler is so soothing to me. I love your stitching it's beautiful. Absolutely love Plum Street. I heard about your flosstube from Ms. Vicky the Virginia Stitcher. I can't believe I haven't seen you before I'm always watching flosstube. I will be looking forward to more videos. And binge watching your others lol.

Just found you on Flosstube today. I enjoyed seeing your beautiful stitching! So sorry to hear about your Mom. It's so hard to lose your Mom- give yourself time to grieve and heal. So glad you had that time with her.

What beautiful photos of your Mother. What beautiful memories. My comfort stitching exists thanks to you and other floss tubers who have kept me company with my stitching which is my retreat, vacation and rest as I journey with parental care also since 2018 with my mom and dad. Your SALS and projects give inspiration and comfort by taking my brain away from the daily challenges. I also find comfort in having a variety of wips so if I feel like fill in, a bright color, something seasonal etc, it is at my fingertips and it keeps it all fun. Wishing you much comfort in many ways as you navigate your grief. May it be ever tempered with beautiful memories and love.

In regards to comfort, I think you give all of us comfort while we watch your flosstubes. You have such a soft voice and gentle manner and we all need that in our lives. And when I am stitching, I feel such a sense of calm and serenity. I was so sorry Christine to hear about the death of your Mother. She left a legacy of love for you and your family. And I know you all will miss her very much. Sending 🤗

Hollis, I had not realized your mom had passed away. It is a hard loss for a woman particularly, I think. We are usually so close to our moms and identify with them. I’m glad you had those 6 years at the end to spend time with her before she moved on to a much better life. Thank you for those wonderful pictures of her…..what a beautiful lady and she looked like she had a wonderful sense of humor!……..Comfort stitching is what I try to do every day for a time in the afternoon, often to ease the time between lunch and a chore I’m not looking forward to doing!!!!! If I can stitch an hour or so then, I go more cheerfully to clean the bathroom or some other such necessary task. And I stitch in the evening while watching TV. If the program requires a lot of attention, I don’t get much stitching done, but if we just watch one news program after another (bad idea!) I can put in quite a few stitches! I really enjoyed your lineup in this flosstube. I’m going to start the Blackbird piece Away We Ride as my birthday start later this month. And I plan to start Mighty Acorn by Blackbird on the first day of fall, so if you concentrate on fall and Halloween stitching, I’d be delighted! Take care. Carol in Texas

Hi Christine...I'm so, so sorry to hear about your mom. It doesn't matter what the age was or how serious the illness, it's always such a sad and heavy-hearted weight having to say goodbye to your mom. What lovely pictures of her you included at the end😊. I hope the pieces of stitching you brought home with you from her house will help you to feel like she is still with you in some way whenever you see them. As always, I loved all of the stitching you've showed today! Your pieces are just timeless. I loved seeing the pictures of your patriotic vignettes. I think that is what my definition of comfort stitching is...just a design that invokes a memory or period of time in my mind and heart. Something nostalgic. I hope you'll enjoy your stitching time with friends in Ohio. Be well!

Hearing you share about your mom and the beautiful pictures of her at the end brought me to tears. I’m so sorry to hear about her passing. You will be in my prayers.

Your Mother was beautiful. So sorry that you had to say goodbye. The promise of that first Hello Momma is something to look forward to. Hugs. Your stitching is beautiful.

Heartfelt sympathy to you and your family on the passing of your mom. How amazing you had her with you for much longer than originally anticipated! Your stitching finishes are all beautiful! I love the Plum Street Rhode Island samplers! So gorgeous! For me, stitching is definitely my comfort and my get-away. I have metastatic cancer and it helps me to focus on the joy of life, instead of the cancer. I enjoy seeing all your stitching, so a summer or autumn stitch parade would be fun!

I am so very sorry for your loss. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Thank you for the food for thought when it comes to comfort stitching!

I’m so sorry for your loss. May God’s peace fill you. Your finishes are beautiful! What are the other 3 charts by Plum Street for which you used the same frame? Thank you for another great visit.

My heartfelt condolences on the loss of your mom! May you hold on to the memories and may the memories hold on to you! Thank you for sharing your stitching and the love for your family! Appreciate you! ❤

Your mother was so fortunate to have your help and love. Love to see and hear about those Patriotic designs! ❤ I finished “Summer’s Song”recently too.

Hugs on the loss of your mama. It's hard. Yesterday was my dad's birthday and we lost him 2.5 years ago over Thanksgiving. His birthday was the 5th of July. Lost mom in 2017 over Easter. I hope your memories are sweet and outlast your sadness.

I'm so sorry you lost your mom. Mom's are so special.
