I have 27 cross stitch pieces waiting to be fully finished. I won't even begin to count quilting projects waiting to be quilted.
Thanks for the great visit!!!
Your neighbor to the north!
Dairy, spirit, peace. I loved your quilts you showed. Miss you. Happy New Year. I happen you are successful,with your plans.
Loved visiting with you and seeing all you have been working on…and what is to come. Loved the doggy picture. Although it brings emotions, it also brings warm and wonderful memories. Looking forward to our next visit!
Thank you for this video. I so appreciate the respect and love you have for each other. I have 5 cross stitch pieces stitched but not fully finished. You have gotten me into the finishing spirit which will give me some peace. I used to live in the dairy state. I look forward to your next video.
Tom's wife here Bobbie...enjoyed your show today...admire all your organization ...I need to go through my sewing room n list my projects for 2023.....I'm having a dairy beverage right now n loving the patterns your showing...I'm ready to get my day going n stitch ...thank you for inspiring me..
I just love you guys is all.
We love you too Tammy! 😘
Oh my gosh what a fun video this was! I so enjoyed spending so much time with you both! I am such a Debbie Mumm fan! I loved all her stuff and still do! Spirit is a wonderful pattern! I would so love to do that! Happy stitching til next time! I have 5 active stitches in progress, plus a couple quilts! I love your WIPGO plan!💗💗
Your WIPGO sounds awesome ♥️ I always enjoy your videos!
Lori O in Medina Ohio - love watching your video and your interactions - it boosts my spirit. You kind of remind me of my "old" Aunt June who had a dairy farm in Indiana when I was growing up, I was lucky to spend part of my summers with her. So Peace always and keep having lots to smile about!
Dairy is yummy. The Spirit gives me peace. Love hearing about your plans. I don't have any finishes for 2023.
Hi ladies. Happy New Year!!
Such a great time to visit with you. I am a huge fan of the longer videos so this was right up my alley.
Your projects all look good and your plans to use the WIPGO boards to work what fits your FFOs sounds like a great plan. Got me thinking. 😉
I have 15 FFOs, all cross stitch. It was fun to see them all again so thanks. FFO-ing a few would probably bring some peace. 😀
Happy stitching, ladies. Thank you for sharing your time with us. ❤
First of all, Happy Birthday Carol!!! Wowza, you two had so many beautiful projects! What a great video! I also loved the picture of Coleman. So precious and thoughtful of your neighbor!!! I'm not a WIPGO kinda gal, but I can tell you this. I have at least 10 finished objects that need to be fully finished. I have at least 4 knitting projects that need to be finished. We shall see what 2023 does for me! I know that I have 3 quilts I want to make too. So much to do, so little time. Happy New Year!
I always enjoy your videos. I usually keep up with finishing and framing, so I probably only have 2-3. Loved the dairy chart.
Really enjoyed seeing your finishes, WIPS and hearing your plans for the year. Wishing you both a happy, healthy 2023. Your question about non-FFOs got me started doing a Word document of them. I buy patterns I like and would enjoy stitching, so they don't necessarily go with my decor or are things I want to see hung. My count is somewhere near 30, and a majority of them will never get FFO'd but I enjoyed the experience and I like looking at them from time to time. They are sometimes also markers of where I was in my life, so I recall things going on while I was stitching them, where I lived, etc. Take care, happy stitching, and I hope all resolves nicely, Carol, with the kidney stone.
I truly enjoy your videos! I have 4 finishes to complete right now. I do my own. I got a new sewing machine for Christmas. I am looking forward to making some lil pillows this year.
I loved catching up with you two ladies, thanks for the fun. All your work is beautiful both c/s and quilts, thanks for sharing. You have inspired me to make a list 👍🤔🙀💕🇬🇧 Happy days! Best wishes Alison
Hooray for lists!
Thank you so much for responding to my question about floshe. I will revisit your last video. I always love seeing the interactions between you two. Your projects are wonderful. Stay well. Best, K
Great video. I always look forward to your flosstube. I have 17 finishes that need to be fully finished. I need to get busy.
Dairy is life:-) Love your channel!
I only have about 5 WIPS. 2 finished , no FFO in 2023. I loved your SPIRIT, and PEACE.
Great video that has inspired us all to get organized and get things done! I was shocked when I counted my finished stitched pieces that need FFO'd. I have 23. Ugh. Granted, many are ornaments or small seasonal pieces that I will make into pillows, but for being a monogamous stitcher, that was an eye opener. I guess I am NOT a monogamous finisher. I also have 4 quilting projects that need finished, 1 big, 1 wall hanging that I'm hand quilting, and 2 table runners. Guess I know what I'm going to be doing the next few weeks! I love that little red/white/blue quilt you showed, Carol. And Jen, what a sweet daughter you are to help your mom get her sewing room organized! It's always more fun to organize for someone else. Good luck crossing those lists off!
We need to have peace in our world, thank you.
The reply you received was spam. We have reported. Sorry
I left your Paris. Glad you are enjoying it!
Great video. Wow - that was a wake up call counting my finished objects - I have 41!! I definitely must challenge myself to get some ffo'd this year. Thanks for the inspiration. That quilt of the day is beautiful.
I just came across your channel and love it! I hope the new year brings peace, good spirits and lots of dairy products!
Thank you Jeanne!
I have about 6 cross stitch items to finish, I have only been stitching for a short time. We won’t discuss my closet full of quilting projects, I have been quilting for many years. I also Love Colour and Cotton floss and cross stitch fabric. I am very excited they are opening a store next month here in St Louis. I will finally get to go to a cross stitch shop !!!
This is my first time watching you both and it was really a great video. I have 14 items stitched that are not finish. That gives me no peace but I do feel like I will get enough spirit in me to finish. Can't wait for your next flosstube.❤
Welcome Peggy. Thanks for watching. Carol
Welcome Peggy and thanks for watching!
Another great video! I am trying WIPGO for the first time this year and I love the idea of working in FFOs. I have 36 projects that need to be FFO'd. Spirit, Peace
I have about 18 stitched but not FFOed. I love the Christmas spirit. I always enjoy your videos.
I work on 11 count Aida. I had eye surgery after my twin cataract removals so my vision is impaired. I use magnifiers while stitching. I enjoy seeing the pictures/scenes appear as I stitch. I quilt too. Right now I am straightening out my sewing room/studio. Pull up an old rug and paint. Now when it is done, I won’t feel guilty when stitching. My room will be orderly.
The blue bargello tree, so pretty! I have two finished but not Fully finished projects.
This year I used the naptime stitcher pages to organize my stitching calendar and help me stay on track finishing WIPs I’ve already begun. The Wipgo page seems like a great idea to make what works for me so I will be adding that to my notebook journal😊. Loved the Valentine quilt behind you today and your Cardinal on slate fabric was sooo cute Jen! Will pray that pesky kidney stone will dissolve on its own to bring relief soon.🙏 I’m also up for the FFO challenge 2023 to help me finish quilt tops needing quilting as well as five cross stitching projects. Thanks for heading up this fun #! At this point I may have close to seven quilt tops needing quilting and binding and about 5 cross stitched pieces needing to be FFO’d. I do have to be in the mood for glue gun and ribbon bows😃
Glad you are joining us Nancy - agree with you that you have to be in the mood :)
First time watching was fun! I’ve been back to stitching for 6 months after 30 years! I have found some books at thrift stores so am using the floss I have had in boxes!! Dairy. Spirit. Peace. Happy New Year to both of you also!🎉
Thanks for watching Wilma!
I have 9 fully stitched pieces waiting to be finished. I like the dairy and spirit charts!
Thanks so much for all the ideas. You two are my favorite because you do so many different kinds of crafts. I might try the WIPGO board. I finished my first round ornament for a gift. And I couldn’t find my 2022 charms either! Then after I gifted it, of course in my knitting necessities bag. Love the Peace and the sentiment.
Thanks so much Kathy - and glad you did find your charms, better late than never, right?
Love your quilt in this video! Well, I have 6 quilt tops I need to quilt and 40 cross stitch pieces to FFO. Challenge accepted!
Wow! That was a long video, but you didn't ave any boring parts so it was worth the watch! I need a task master to come help me organize my craft area and keep me accountable. I love the valentine quilt, very pretty. I am still feeling the holiday spirit so I am stitching ornaments. I'm sure I will abandon them soon for Easter projects but really there is never a bad time to stitch peace love and joy! I have too many finishes that need a fully finish but they are stashed wherever they were when I finished the stitching. I am guessing 65.
I have approx 6 quilt wips and about 5 cross stitch wips....and too many new to count patterns and charts that I want to start....love your videos...the two of you have a great mother daughter relationship!! Dairy and Peace
Thanks Barbara- we aren’t going to count patterns and charts either, way too many!
26! Thanks for the video!
So glad to see you two again! I always enjoy your videos and info on projects you are doing.
Carol, I pray you are soon back to your normal dear self. Love the hair, too!
Sushi kitty is adorable!! Beautiful work, girls!!!
Goodness, ALL (three) of my stitchings are in the WIP category! No FFOs!! I do so love the challenge of stitching.. not necessarily the finishing!!!
The reply you received was spam. We have reported it. Sorry.
Enjoyed your video it was not too long. My under the bed box has way too many pieces that need to be fully finished. You have encouraged me to try to do something with some of them!! Maybe I will get in the spirit and get at peace with myself when some of them are finished.
Way to go Shirley - look forward to seeing and hearing what you’ve finished!
Love Jen’s FFO plans for this year, and I may borrow a couple of her ideas. It looks like I have 32 FOs that need to be FFOd, and about 2/3 of them are ornaments or smalls. One on the list is MIA. I was up to 38 last year but made some headway at Christmas, but I’ve finished a few more that weren’t included in last year’s list.
It is always fun watching your videos. I watched Michele's Penny's Daughter Shares video and I thought the Idea about the WIPGO FFO board to work on finished projects is great. I have 60 finished projects, that aren't fully finished. How ridiculous!!! Hopefully I will be motivated to get some done. Good luck Carol on getting your biscornu finished, it is so pretty. Thanks!!!
Thank you Alice and we are here to cheer you on with your finishing!
The pillow you showed was Stoney Creek
Hi ladies! I hope you had a happy birthday, Carol. Glad to hear the pipes are ok. I went through that once. Had a kidney stone once too. It exited by itself but the journey was not fun. I think my finished stitching but not FFO'd would be two. But one of them is just waiting for me to go to the store this week to get a frame and then it can be mailed out as a birthday gift. but I have a quilt that's been around a long time that needs to be finished and a stuffed toy my grandson wants.
I can only think of 3 that aren’t FFO’d. Glad quilting is part of stitch your stash! Bought a featherweight this weekend!!!
Oh wow, you’ll have fun with that machine!
A bargello xmas tree. Very pretty love the tiny red green cross stitch 🎉
Always enjoy your flosstube videos! Loving your idea of using a wipeout board ( I’ve not used one before) w categories instead of specific project names. I’m fickle when planning thoughts get derailed by new patterns or my mood! I currently only have 3 unfinished finished stitched projects. 1 is Christmas so no hurry. 1 is for my grandson and not sure how I will finish it. The last is winter cometh and I do want to finish it and put it out. But go derailed by valentines small for a week or so stitched them and ffo’d them when i finished stitching.
I have too many FO, maybe 20 or so pieces to be FFO. I just found your floss tube for the first time. I subscribed to it. Spirit and Peace are both fun projects. Have a great week.
Welcome Karen. Glad you are here.
I have four projects that need to be FFO'D. Two of them are sitting on my kitchen table with all of the supplies. Hello me! Got to get working on them. 😃
That quilt of the day is stunning - I love the colours. I am not a finisher at all but was pleased, when I counted up, to find I only have 41 fo’s 😃😃. Not sure how many I will get finished this year but you have motivated me to try! My hubby had to have his gall bladder removed on the 27th and ended up having 203 gallstones. I guess he wasn’t scamming when he said he was in pain - oops! Loved your video and it can be as long as you like. I have to say I teared up when I saw the picture of your little fur baby Carol - beautiful gift. Happy stitching and thanks again.
Wow, more gallstones than FOs! Hope he is recovering well.
Let there be peace in the world
I have approximately 25 in my “under the box”. I actually put to fully finish some of these on my WIPGO board- I figured that would be one way to get mote of them finished. Loved seeing your stitching a d finishes. I’m doing the SYS2023 also-I love the idea because I love what is in my stash or I wouldn’t have bought it so why not stitch them.
We need the spirit of peace to fill us.
I have about 20 finished stitched pieces that have not been FFOd yet. There are a few good sized pieces, but mostly smalls waiting to be turned into ornaments or pin pillows. I should have a large finish tomorrow (the 2022 Mystery SAL from Modern Folk Embroidery)...I want to put in the final few stitches after I get home tomorrow from a short trip. I also may turn one or two finishes into project bags.
I stitched that Christmas pillow many years ago, and did a double edge ruffle. Oldy and goodie. Beautiful heart quilt beyond you. I have at least 40 fully stitched items that are not ffod. ( I dont enjoy finishing although I did "finish " 3 for Christmas gifts. Many are samplers to be framed. Love your videos.
The reply you received was spam. We have reported it. Sorry.
Hi ladies, another great video. 👏👍👏👍👏 I have 8 items I need to finish. Right now when I finish one I pin it to my design wall. Jen, I have all my quilts to be done (if I have pattern and fabric I call it a kit) listed in a journal. Each stage of the process has a header in different colors. When I finish a stage I check it off. Keep up the great videos. They are pure inspiration. 🌟🌟 Happy Stitching. ❤❤❤ Dairy, Spirit, Peace
I'd love to see your design wall Kathy!
Great flosstube! I have 25+. 😳. I guess I need to do some finishing!!!
I have 17 fo's for cross stitch pieces and 4 quilt pieces to finish. Very doable to finish this year!
So many fun stitching finishes! I enjoyed hearing your plans for the year! I need to join your Fully Finished project. I have an=bout 15 projects that need fully finished. Dairy Spirit Peace
Glad you are thinking about joining us Carol - 15 is a reasonable number to get through in a year or two.
Thank you for mentioning my UA-cam channel on your video. Xo
Also, I love the quilt in the background.
I have about ten wips, only focus on a few at a time. I have uncounted projects in bags that I have good intentions to start. I have 3 finished cross stitch projects but not fully finished. I did finish 5 sled ornaments at Christmas. I finished my first quilt in 2022. I have a top done for another quilt. I really don’t know how to sew, so have to wait for a friend to teach me the next step. Peace!
I have 7 finishes that need to be fully finished.
You have lots of great ideas for 2023. I'm not sure I'm ready to be that organized but I am working toward it. I like the Peace of no definite charts or spread sheets. I didn't go count but I would say I have close to 20 projects needing fully finishing-- I went to count-- 29! Oops. That is one year of stitching.
I have 5 pieces that need finishing, 3 to be finished as ornaments, and 2 as small pillows. My middle daughter who sews has taken the pillows to finish. I need to find a finisher for the ornaments. (my lns has a finishing time of 10 months at this point. It is ridiculous.) Loved seeing all your crafty output and hearing about your plans for 2023. I have a list of “Stitch Goals” for the year and it currently has 12 wips on it that I’d like to finish, none of them small pieces. We shall see. I am pretty understanding with myself 😂 It’s a hobby, not a job. Hope the kidney stone has resolved, Carol. Thanks for sharing, xx, Tricia
So true Tricia - it’s good to have goals, but it has to be fun! We have a great ornament finisher at our local shop - she’s done a few pieces for both of us and her work is beautiful!
Good Morning Carol and Jennifer!! Happy New Year to both of you. I will be moving from Chicago to Phoenix in the next 3-4 months so I have not been fully finishing my stitching. I have 4 ready to finish. I figured easier to move them is this state vs fully finished. I’m hoping to have a couple more stitched finishes before I move.
Best of luck on your move Debby!
Wow, what an awesome video! Peace is such a greatwordfor 2023! Finishes to accomplish, 31 would be the number. I have avoided WIPGO, you are both responsible for my checking it out, shame on you! Lol. Hugs from the Ozark Mountains of Arkansas. 1
I have no clue how many stitched finishes I have - way too many😂. I was motivated by Michele (Penny’s Daughter) to pull out a basket and get started on conquering my fear of fully finishing. I am not happy with my quality so far, but I am feeling good about the possibility of seeing my stitching tucked in places and the prospect of improving.
Anyway, I listened to Michele’s video about the FFO Challenge again today to try to get motivated. She mentions you two in her video so I decided it was a nice day to s”meet” you.
I enjoyed your friendship and content very much👏. Thank you!
Hi Rachel and thanks for coming over from Michele’s video - we are here to cheer you on in your finishing!
Happy New Year to you both! But oh! When Carol showed her Xmas pillow -- I did a double-take! The fabric! A close friend of mine died a few years ago, and her daughter gave me most of her stitching stash -- includig a piece of that fabric with the trees apparently woven into it. Looks to be the same size as the one for the pillow; it's an olive-y green -- darker than yours. Mind you, it's been in a plastic sealed bag for I don't no how long. No label; price tag, $7.95 Canadian. I had no idea what to do with it -- but now I do!
Love the Christmas dish towels.
I like reindeer too
Love the duffle bag. Annie’s sells mesh for bags etc.
Thank you!
I have 4 finishes in my to FFO pile. All the fabric and trims are picked out and waiting for me. I tend to save up a few items that have a similar finishing technique, then pull the fabric and trim, if I’m framing it I decide on the frame, etc and get the design of the finish done and staged and then I’ll have a finishing afternoon where I sit down and get it done. It breaks up the process so it’s not so overwhelming.
That’s a great process Shelly!
I am very interested in your 2023 finally finishing challenge. I just counted and I have at least 25 finished pieces that need to be fully finished, 3 stitched pieces that need to be framed (and I have frames for them) and I have one almost finished sampler that will go to the framer as soon as I finish it - this week! Counting wips is harder - I only have 2 or three that I have worked on recently, but I have at least 4 that are really ufo’s since I haven’t touched them in over a year. I’m going to work out a plan of attack - that will also have to include some knitting! Thanks for your videos - I love seeing all your projects. Happy new year!
Glad you are joining us for the challenge Trudy!
Great video ladies 😊 I have 25+ fo’s. I would rather have a wip than an fo, for some reason fo’s mock me more than wips. I put ffo’s on my wipgo last year and got 15 projects fully finished, so it works 🎉 Happy New Year!
Glad to hear that FFO for WIPGO worked for you Joy - I am hoping I stay motivated through the year!
Not sure how many I need to FFO but probably less than six. Dairy, peace, spirit
I have two whips ….that I started early last year
I’m in a stitchy slump …. Hopefully I get out of it soon
I received a cross stitch stand and want to use it.
Dairy
Spirit
Peace
Would love to stitch dairy,spirit and peace. I have two finished stitched projects that need framed. I will not not tell you how many ufo quilting projects I have started a nd not finished, as it is embarrassing!!! I would need a year of retreats to finish them! My closet is full now! Have a happy new year!
I thoroughly enjoy your videos, thank you so much!
It is horrifying…… I have 57 small to medium and 17 large cross stitch pieces that need to be fully finished.
I so much enjoy stitching that I do not want to take time out from that to fully finish my work!
That’s the hard part, isn’t it? Stitching is so fun!
So, I counted my finishes. To say I was shocked is putting it mildly. I had no idea! 52. I immediately took the smallest one and FFO'ed it right then and there. So I will be picking up the challenge gauntlet and working on FFOs more than in previous months. Thanks for the inspiration.
Good for you and glad to have you joining us for the challenge!
I have 12 FO to be finished down here. The box of 35 years’ worth of finishes is currently out of reach and I don’t climb any more so who knows how many are there. Next time someone comes over, I will have them get it down from storage shelves. I do not do spreadsheets 😂. I take a fine emery board to my fingertips and around my nails and then use shea butter lotion when I stitch with silk.
Haha, we don't need to worry about the box - and thanks for the lotion recommendation - I need to put an emery board in my stitching station, that's a great idea.
So funny, I had a text from a friend last Saturday asking how many things I had ready to FFO. The answer was 27, but the then I got fired up and FFOd three the next day. So when I watched you I had 24! My thinking now is if I could do three FFOs in one day, I can do two more every month. Right?😀 So, I'll also be doing the FFO Challenge! Y'all are hilarious with your back-and-forth; I so enjoy watching you! The Lancashire Stitcher is stitching the Peace snowmen right now; she may be the one you saw who had to take a break from the blue. Thank you for all the fun! I'm already looking forward to your next post!
Glad you are joining us for the challenge Lucy - and yes, it was the Lancashire Sticher!
That blue tree on the blue pillow looks like Bargello
It does!
I think I have about 30 finished cross stitches to be FFOed. I was just sitting here before you asked, thinking I need to work on that stuff! Doesn't make sense, does it!
Funny you should ask, last week I counted 5 stitched and not finished so I fully finished 2 leaving 3 and then I finished 2 more last night so back to 5! They are Christmas and winter for next year and 1 Valentine! Usually I maybe have a couple! Idk how I let it go to 5! I work a ton of hours each week so I really try never to have more than 2 to be finished unless it’s a series that I want to finish at the same time❤ by the way that quilt this week is fantastic❤it looks beautiful! Carol have you signed up for Annie Beez ornaments of the year 2023? The first one is just the most adorable snowman! ❄️ ⛄️ you should check it out she’s getting ready to send out the second one in late January! Blessings ladies ❤❤ spirit, peace
Don’t know how I wasn’t subscribed because I’ve watched for so long! But I did subscribe today. I really enjoy watching the two of you especially because I also quilt and stitch. I don’t have any finished stitching waiting for finishing (this is easy - just don’t ever finish stitching your WIPS like me 😂) I do have about 8 finished quilts waiting for quilting and binding. Peace, dairy
Thanks for subscribing!
Your tree is Hungarian point needlework. I have one just like it!
Spirit dairy peace. I am working on six projects, no ffo’s yet.
I have 2 finished and many wins. Peace, Dairy, Spirit.
Loved this video. So many interesting things. Debbie Mumm. Or Mum. Memories. I have many of her patterns and books for quilting and craft projects. Fabrics she designed too. I’m not sure I knew she did cross stitch patterns. A popular designer. Hope all goes well with the kidney stones. My husband and I spent a Friday night recently, in ER for almost five hours of waiting and a couple tests. Thankfully test results were good. But lots of waiting to have them, and a long time to hear the results! My right eye is giving me a problem. The eye Dr was ruling out an aneurysm. It’s likely nerve damage due to Type Two Diabetes. It sometimes takes care of itself but Dr said that can take awhile. I see him again this week. Hoping for positive appointment! How nice to make those tote bags. I liked both the project bags. I’m glad you’re organizing your sewing room. 🌲🌲🌲⭐️⭐️❤️💜
Hope you are doing better - it does always seem like things take 10 times longer in the ER, but good to go just to make sure.
That’s so sweet about ten dollars for the laying tool! Do you still have it? I still have my hammer from freshman year of college. I often wonder how nice it would have been to take my mother on the type of stash shopping we do today back when she first started stitching in the 80’s. She was so frugal then and careful with her supplies. She would use her dmc down to the last quarter inch! Back then dropping a couple hundred dollars on cross stitch supplies would have definitely been unheard of!
Love the sweet valentines quilt!
Ha ha about being the nosey neighbor.
I do still have my laying tool, although I bought a new one a few years ago. And I agree on the shopping. I think higher incomes and credit cards have helped make the shopping happen more!
Dairy would be perfect for me. My son in law has dairy cows and babies are being born now. They are so pretty.
I know I have 16 stitches Christmas ornaments that need to be fully finished and probably about 7 others, so about 23.
That's an easy question ...... only 3 ..... ! One is waiting for Hubby to make a frame for me so I'm dumping that one on his lap!
Spirit
What a cute little parade! But kinda refreshing since some are a little overwhelming..75 or more…I can’t afford to even buy that many! But I’m a progress stitcher ,not a finisher..so I’ve got a bin of finishes..maybe 15 to 18?. But non FFO’d ! I plan on putting them together in a quilt instead of many frames and filling a wall..maybe in 5 years…hmmm….dairy , spirit and peace look nice to do !😊
A quilt is a great way to put a bunch of finishes together!
I have just under 30 finished that I need to fully finished all but 2 are medium to large projects like Autumn love for one lol although I did buy the board called for to fully finish 😂 oh well it’s not autumn yet 😊
Another enjoyable video. Wish I lived close enough to spend some time with you both.🙂 I have a two daughters, probably close to your age, Jennifer, and a granddaughter getting ready to graduate from high school!! My daughters do not cross stitch or sew, at this time. They both still have much younger children.😁 The youngest being 7 years old. There are a few in between!! They spend a good part of their life at sporting events. They do enjoy what I make, though. I love your ideas for wipgo.
We would enjoy spending time with you too Pam!
I’m doing a quaker temperature chart
I’ve seen that one - it’s really pretty!
I have approximately 20 projects that need to be FFO’d.
Oh my goodness, waiting for your next flosstube video is like waiting for the next Outlander book to come out which by the way takes up to 5 or 6 years!! I sit on pins and needles with anticipation.. Since having a total reverse shoulder replacement on December 21st I'll have to be with you all in "spirit" in the sewing department. I do have a question for the princess on what she uses to finish her diamond paintings with. I fell into the hole and started doing them since I can only use one arm. May you have a good new year and that "peace" will follow you throughout. Until next be safe and well.
Thanks Sara. So glad you enjoy our videos. We really enjoy making them. Hope your recovery proceeds well and quickly..
Hi Sara - thanks - and I am actually reading the newest Outlander book right now - agree with you that we have to wait way too long, although I hear the next one will be the last one. I will be sad when it ends. And guess what the princess does with her diamond paintings? Rolls them up and puts them in a drawer :) she did frame two for my mom for Christmas but the rest are waiting. The plan is to frame them...when we can find frames that fit and aren't crazy expensive!
I probably have 5-8 FFOs
