I get so excited when I see you have posted a new FlossTube! I always enjoy seeing all the pretty projects you are working on or have finished. I love your Henpeck. I have this pattern in my stash and I want to stitch it on Dove. Can you tell me where you located your Dove fabric by Color and Cotton? I checked Color and Cotton website and it’s not available. Cant wait to see your next FlossTube. Congratulations on your new grandbaby due in July!
Hi Paula. The Dove fabric was a pre-order that Colour and Cotton had. I hope they will add to their fabric they keep in stock. I love it and would like to get more.
@, thank you for the information. I’m going to contact them to see if it can be preordered.
Hi Sara. I watched your floss tube for the first time and very much enjoyed it. Great finishes and lots of fun wips. On your intro photo you have a pillow finish of a snowman with January stitched above it. Can you please tell me who the designer is? It's adorable. Thanks! 😊
That chart is from Sugar Stitches on Esty. The name of the chart is January Sampler. I only stitched the snowman. I love that one, too. Thank you for watching.
@@sarasstitches thanks so much for the information. I'm going now to check it out. Looking forward to watching more of your floss tubes. 😊
Lovely stitching. First time viewer and newly subscriber. Love your book section. I found ellery adams on my libby account and checked it out. I also feel authors can do without all the language and still have a great story. I won't check that one out. Thanks for posting
I just loved “The Women”. I didn’t read it, but I listened to it. The characters were great.
Great video!! I loved your story about the white cloth on the back of your pillow. I can totally relate to having a great idea and then it turns out … not great 😂😂 I enjoy your videos so much!
It was a blessing for your video to pop up today. I have truly been enabled!!! ❤
Great video!
I am going to watch your newest one tonight.
I just saw this was up. Yay!
What a great idea for the monthly minis, and your easel hack was great. Every time someone shows This is the Day I remind myself I need to start mine, it's kitted & ready to start. I only have 5 WIPS, but no telling how many projects I have kitted 😮😂
You need to get it started, lol. I would definitely have more wips if I kitted up projects in advance. I have actually thought about doing it because it would be nice to just grab it and start stitching, lol. I have bought a few charts that were already kitted and I loved it.
Thank you so very much for sharing your video. I had surgery on my foot last Friday and it has been tough. I am stitching and watching lots of flosstube. I love your projects! Everything looks so pretty. I hope you have a great week. Maybe I will see you at the Shepherd’s Needle before too long.
I hope to see you soon. I will be praying for a quick recovery.
@@sarasstitches Thank you!
Hello Sara, I enjoyed your video. I’m a Plumstreet fan and Brenda Gervais fan too. I also have a couple of Robin Pickens to do but have not started them. We share the same likes. 🤣 Enjoy your week and keep stitching.
I think I could stitch everything they design lol. They are some of my favorite.
You and I are a lot alike. I live in northeast Mississippi. Plum street is one of my favorite! I’ve stitched several of the 3 animal charts. I stitch on Lugana too most of the time. I have about 10 wips and I usually stitch what I want, but I’m stitching another stocking for a new grandbaby due in May, and a birthday gift for my older son. I enjoyed your video and am a new subscriber.
I have several more Plum Street charts in my stash that I can't wait to start, lol. I think every time I go to my LNS, I buy one. I have thought about stitching stockings for my grandbabies and have looked at a few, but I am scared I will not be able to actually sew it into a stocking. My sewing skills are not the best, lol. I think they are so pretty. Thank you for watching and subscribing.
@ actually I don’t sew mine either. I have a finisher named Kathy who is very very reasonable, good and quick. She has done all 7 about to be 8 of mine.😳 Happy stitching!
Sara I could listen to you allllll day long! I’m totally with you - stitching what you want. I love having WIPS at hand to choose from and I plan to do that today. All your starts and finishes are so lovely. (I’m a Plum Street Samplers groupie) and proud of it ◡̈. Thanks so much for all your sharing/enabling.
Thank you for watching. I also have Jacks Bash in my wips but didn't show it because I don't have that much process on it, lol. I just love everything she designs.
Great ideas and beautiful stitching. I hope to see you at Shepherd Needle for some of their upcoming classes and retreats. Thanks! Janine
Great video. You’ve been such an enabler for me this morning, 🤣. I had to keep pausing to shop. I always enjoy your videos.
I can't tell you how many times I have that 😂. I also have a notebook with charts and fabric written in it, too lol
That is such a cute idea!! I have a Welcome sign that sits out front and I think I'm going to have to adopt that for my sign!
Great idea on the monthly mini’s!
Sara! It was so fun to wake up to your sweet words!! Thank you so much for the shoutout! Your home sign is DARLING! I’ve only seen people finish the monthly minis into pillows, but your finish is THE CUTEST!! 😍 You can bet your bottom dollar I’m gonna use that little easel hack, too!!
Thank you! I plan on watching your newest video tonight. Your finish looks very cute.
@ I mean, it’s no custom HOME sign, but I think it’s a cutie patootie!! Hope your week’s going great, Sara!! You have me thinking of those mini pincushion patterns… I’d talked myself out of stitching them and now I’m reconsidering… 🤔
@ShadyGroveStitcher all of them are so cute, and they stitch up fast, and I am a slow stitcher lol
For a biscornu your border needs to be an even number and for your first one it's a lot easier sewing it together if it's on 14 (or 28) than a higher counts. I made my first one in the spring and I've made 4 more since then.
Thank you for your advice. I did not know that. I think I will finish that piece into a pillow and find a biscornu chart to stitch for my first one. I need for my first biscornu to be as easy as possible lol
Happy New Year 🎉🥂🎊 thank you for a great year and enjoyed your video and seeing all your beautiful 🤩 finishes! Have a wonderful weekend and happy stitching 😊🪡🧵🤗🤩🎉🥂🎊
Wow! You have accomplished so much in 2024! I don’t work and have no good excuses for my lack of finishing. I loved the snowman, the rabbit, and the three pumpkins in the frame. I would love a tutorial on how you finished using the artist canvas. Do you remember the stocking I cross stitched for my son? I sent a picture to you and you included it in a video. He and his wife couldn’t find it to use at Christmas. I was sick. They got their stocking gifts in a plastic bag. I have shed a few tears over it. I am planning to accomplish more in 2025, I hope I will get to see you all the Shepherd’s Needle soon. Thanks for sharing.
I'm so sorry about the stocking. I don't think people understand the time and hard work that goes into stitching ( unless they are stitchers). I hope they find it. I hope that I get to more sit and stitches this year, I love seeing everyone!
@sarasstitches They did find them after we were gone. I hope to go to some sit and stitch meetings too! Maybe we will see each other soon!
Great video Sara! I loved seeing what you finished, quite a bit with work & watching grandbabies! It's a hobby not a race thank goodness, cause I'm a slow stitcher. Many blessings for 2025 & as much stitching or as little as you desire!
Happy New Year! You have some great wips and finishes!
Thank you! It was really good to see you on the zoom.
I love everything you are stitching. I have been just doing my thing. I have noticed how much my style has changed since I first started.
Me too. I have so many charts that I don't want to stitch anymore. I hope you had a Happy New Year!
Sara, I am so glad you mentioned that you have a flosstube channel because I loved seeing some of your stitching! I started the video too late; I’ve got to go to bed but look forward go watching more tomorrow. I see many more hours together in our future!!
Thank you for watching. I have several charts in my stash that you showed for your 2025 starts, that now I want to start, lol.
@ We can be 2025 stitchy twins! 😋
Enjoyed your video and loved the audio book suggestions.
Thank you. I am glad you like the book part of the video
Beautiful finishes!
Thank you
Hello Sara, i really enjoy your videos. Your honestly is so inspiring and I appreciate that you don't try to keep up with the other floostubers but instead you are being you. Keep up the good work. Happpy New Year!
Thank you so much for your encouragement. It is truly appreciated. Thank you for watching.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 😊🧵🪡🎄🎁🎊🥂
Hey Sara...Thank you for sharing! So much fun to see your work! My mother had a little set of angels that I remember from my childhood as well. Oh how I wish I had them! You might try using a brighter white on your fabric before giving up on it all together. Many of Brenda's charts have light or ghosty colors. I have changed them from time to time, to satisfy my own personal preference. You are doing lovely work! Keep it up!
I will try changing the white. I don't know why I didn't think of that, lol. Sometimes, just changing one color makes all the difference.
@sarasstitches Yes, it can make a world of difference, and it would be a shame to give up on all your lovely work. You are doing so well for someone just coming back to stitching! I started back in the 80's but took a long hiatus with children and working full time. Things in the xstitch world have changed tremendously! So much fun though with all tge beautiful designs and encouragement from. People like yourself! Best of luck!
I enjoyed stitching with you this evening, friend! All of your Christmas finishes are lovely, as are your WIPs. I feel the same about some of my wips too...not really wanting to finish them, so will ufo them. I'm looking forward to your wip/finish parade and stitching with you next week : ) Have you read The Last Bookshop in London? Same timeline as the Underground Library book you shared about. I think I'll pick that up next. Or maybe The Path of the Crooked. I looked that one up too and there are at least 7 in the series so far. That's fun! Thanks for the recommendations!
I have that book on my Goodreads list, but I have not read it. I am almost finished with the Crooked Path. I plan on reading more in the series. Sometimes, I just need a fun light read. Are you planning on being on Sandi's Zoom on New Year’s Eve? We can start the bird chart then.
It is so good to see you! You have great finishes, haul, and wips. I started that dimensions kit, but only worked on it once. I should pull it out. Happy New Year!🎉🎉
We need to set up a schedule for the dimensions kit to keep us on track. I am going to put it in my plans for 12 ×12 on New Years Eve. If you can, you need to jump on Sandi's zoom that day.
@@sarasstitches let's set up a schedule! I'd love that. No pressure though. :). I enjoyed the zoom. :)
So happy to see you!
I hope to see you on Sandi's 12x12 Zoom
What is the pattern Have a Very Merry Christmas with Mrs Clause and Santa.
It is from the Tiny Modernist. It's called Christmas Signs. There are 4 different charts in this pattern
Where did you get the dusk fabric?
I got it from 123 stitch. That was my first time using it, and I will be getting more.
I was overjoyed to see you had posted a FlossTube! I always enjoy seeing what you have been working on. You have been busy stitching/finishing lots of pretty projects. Can’t wait to see your WIP parade. Happy New Year!
Thank you so much for watching. Happy New Year to you.
Good to see you. I am always so inspired by what you stitch. Do videos when you can. Your finishing is beautiful.
Thank you! I hope you have a Happy New Year!
New subscriber and really enjoyed your video. I use a combo in my pillows. I stuff poly fill in corners and edges then pour walnut shells in after. I add more polyfil as needed. Works well. 😁
Thank you for subscribing! I am so glad you like my content. Thank you for the pillow advice, I think part of the program is I probably don't use enough polyfil.
I live in NE Arkansas glad to know there’s another Arkansan stitcher😍
I love meeting other Arkansas stitchers! My daughter went to college at ASU, but I haven't been back in that area since she graduated. I am in southeast Arkansas.
Sara ,What part of Arkansas are you from? I’m in the MtHome area
I am in southeast Arkansas. I have had several people comment on my videos from your area.
Hi Sara!! I'm so happy to see you back. You truly have so much to offer.❤. Please continue to do floss tube. I would love to see a wip parade. I first met you on a zoom call with Stitchin with Sandi😊
Glade to see someone from my home state. I saw a UA-cam (maybe Helen D) use a small piece of sheet batting and put in her corners with stuffing in it before stuffing the.rest of the pillow. I haven't tried it but I will on my next pillow.
What part of Arkansas do you live in. I am in the Southeast part of the state. Someone else suggested using the batting, so I am going to try that. I feel like it should work. Thank you for watching and commenting.
North Central, near Batesville.
Was glad to see you and see what all you’ve been up to and I so enjoy your book talk also
Thank you. I really want to make an effort to start actually reading books this, I have missed it.
It was great to see you at the Shepherd's Needle Jingle Ball stitch day. Thanks for another great floss tube and Happy New Year. I would love to see a WIP and finish parade. Janine
I had so much fun. I hope she has it again next year.
I suggest a dark gray material for your angels.
It's always nice to see you Sara, whenever you can do a video is when you do it. I loved seeing your FFO'S & finishes, you do a great job. See you next time.
Thank you!
Good to see you again. Enjoyed seeing your beautiful stitching and awesome finishes!
Thank you so much!
For pillows I stuff corners with scraps of cotton batting. Then put a layer of batting around the edge. Fill the center tight with lizard litter and finish off with a little poly fill before closing.
Thank you for sharing how you make your pillows, Devi. I will try it. I never would have thought of it.
Excited to see yours as you create more and more
I enjoy your videos, you have much to offer. Thanks for sharing your projects with us.
Thank you for watching.
Good to see you, Sara. FFO parade would be fun to see. 🪡🪡🪡
