I'm just so grateful to have met you gals at StitchCon! I'm loving the (many) SALs we've got going and look forward to more, hahahaha! Table 23!!!!
I lost it at the corn-ers! 🌽 😂 You all are so fun to watch and stitch along to!
Corn-ers. 😂😂
Oh my sweet summer child! Amity has me cracking up with “fun blue eyes.” Erinn, please make sure you have her watch it. I would love to be a fly on the wall with you two watching Game of Thrones. I always enjoy your videos and seeing all of your projects! The bauble design is beautiful!
Sir Thomas is so tempting. I would love to see it in person at a shop to really get a feel for the beads and rainbow braid! Can't wait to watch your progress and possibly even join in on a SAL! Thank you for including your haul section from Stitch Con....that's one of my favorite parts! A SAL for Beloved sounds good too (I plan on just stitching the birds also and mine is kitted and ready).
Stitch Con sounds so fun - and to have so many stitchers nearby! Absolutely gorgeous shawl - and I say a wonderful gift! (Insert muppet arms as I scream and run to email you! I’m so excited. Thank you!!!) so many fun wips and Sal names - I need to work on that! Such fun haul all around! Sir Thomas is very intimidating and I love it sooo much!
Between the finger holes and game of thrones being fun - I cried more than once! Such a fun video!!! Thank you for taking the time and sharing.
I just loved the way you combined the Artsy Housewife patterns Grace & Peace into one stitched piece….so I purchased them and am attempting to do the same…. I have a whole new respect for your talents & for all the creative juggling you did to make these pieces fit together….thank you for the inspiration!!
You guys just make me smile and laugh. I love seeing your variety of projects. 😊
Erinn and Amity!! Greetings from Dallas! What a fun video! I always enjoy them as I see charts that I don’t know. Fun, fun, fun! You’re going to have a fabulous time at Stitch North in October! I’ve been to their last two retreats which have been in the Spring and am signed up for next Spring. Caroline and her crew put on a great retreat!! Amity, your Bauble Birds is on Fire!! Great pattern. Already looking forward to your next flosstube!!! Thanks so much!!
So glad I found your channel. I haven’t cross stitched in years, but am now encouraged to start again.
Well bugger me, that was me! I’ll email you over the weekend! Super excited right now!!!! Gosh you girls are entertaining!! So much laughter is good for the soul. - take care, Nic x
So excited to watch another ft from you...I always laugh along as I stitch! Lol
How do u both stitch so fast?!? All the projects you choose r SO amazing! LOVE the Bauble design; cardinals r one of my favorite birds!
I am HERE for allllllll that haul! Seeing all the wonderful stuff u guys get really inspires me... "and her wish list grew three sizes that day!" 😜 So many awesome things I want to stitch!
Happy stitching can't wait to see all the new starts n progress on sals! 🐈⬛🪡❤️
Welcome back! What a fun video! You guys crack me up. That BAUBLE chart is spectacular! Keep on keeping on ✌️
The Baubles pattern is STUNNING, Amity. 😍😍😍 always loooove seeing your updates and what you’ve been working on. I’m so jealous of your baby critters, especially the raccoons. Sooo cute!
Another entertaining video. Love watching you two. The Christmas village in the book reminds me of a Long Dog. Thanks for sharing your time and stitching!
At least once during every video of yours I laugh so hard I'm in tears. Thanks for bringing the joy. Amity, the bauble is beautiful! I love your pattern style, please keep making them! I'm hoping to be able to attend a retreat someday, it sounds like a wonderful experience.
Another great video and so many patterns. Glad you had fun at stitch con. Love the horror inspired threads. Fire baubles should definitely become a thing.
I am a huge A Song of Ice and Fire fan, I spend hours listening to theory videos and I'm even designing patterns inspired by the books. I love the beginning of the show and am loving House of the Dragon so much. I can rant for hours about all the fake history of the world so much more than real world history. Love the video and all the haul!!
HI from Paris Erinn and Amity ❤ thanks again and again for sharing your passion ! Love Bauble birds pattern, bravo ! Much love 💕
Fun. 😂 laughed so hard. Thanks for this. Always lovely to see your stitching, but definitely come for the shenanigans and laughs as well. Those baubles give off such fun vibes and remind me in the very bestest way of my grandma’s collection of vintage glass ornaments. Love. Have a wonderful July!
Hi girls! So nice to see you again! Thank you for the wonderful flosstube 💗
Thanks for another entertaining video. Love the bauble Christmas pattern. Congrats on your finishes. Your needles were on fire. Happy stitching!
Yay for finishes! Beautiful! Congrats on a new release. Spooky Teapot is looking so cool! I 🧡that fabric! WOW Cactus Cat is adorable. bauble Have fun with all your stitching!
You gals always give me a belly laugh. Today it was the corn-ners on Big Tom. 😂. Thanks for the levity!
Wonderful video! Always so fun to see and hear what you’ve been up to. Fire and Bauble. Thank you ❤
Just wow! 😍😍 so much entertainment packed into one video! I loved it and enjoyed every second of it. ❤️ Thanks for being such amazing people and I’m already looking forward to some future SALs - with all those patterns you got, there will be a few… or more 🤣
I was so eager to hear about your trip to Stitch Con. Glad you both had a great time. It was so cute to see your eyes especially Amity when you were talking about Game of Throne, blue eyes and slashing,fun, dragity things, fire, lol. That shawl is gorgeous. I always such a hard time trying to find the right bauble for my project bags. Wow! The stain class frame on one of your charts was amazing. Too cute, matching jackets. Your label should have a bird or birds on it.
Hi ladies! So glad to see that you are back with another great video. I loved the pic of the raccoon kids and the baby skunk video. Did you know that skunks have poor eyesight? They chased off the raccoon as they see it is a threat. The foot stomping thing is a precursor to the smelly assault that would follow. Skunks don't see humans as a predatory threat since we tend to give them a wide berth. A number of years ago, there was a beautiful skunk who visited our backyard nightly. I used to feed it good-quality German hot dogs by calling it to me (I named it Stinky) and tossing the hot dog to it. Over the course of a summer, i was able to feed it by hand. Sadly, one day, it was hit by a car in front of our house on our busy road. It was a sweetie.
I'm happy you've found patterns that you like in the ones i sent you, and glad they will be made. Especially Sir Thomas, which i bought a few years back; what the heck was i thinking?
You're going to Stitch North? Is there a particular weekend?
Amity, i hope you feel better and that your finger heals (maybe have your dr look at it?). And Erinn, i share your reticence about higher count fabrics, though i'm going to give it a try soon.
Anyway. I so love your videos and look forward to them.
See you in 2 weeks - i hope it is only 2 wks.😊❤
Hi Donna!! Great to hear from you (as always!) I had never even thought about getting to the point that we could hand feed one of the skunks, but now it's definitely a goal! Sorry to hear about Stinky. Glad they got to enjoy some time with you and some quality German hot dogs.
We love all of the patterns you sent - it was a struggle to decide which ones to start first! I'm so excited to see Amity's start on Sir Thomas. I didn't realize what a large pattern it was. It's going to be beautiful!
We're going to Stitch North October 25th-27th. 🍁
We hope you're enjoying your retirement and getting lots of stitching done! ♥️🪡
Sometimes I get the giggles at your edited spots, trying to imagine what you two were doing and whether it was so scandalous it had to be cut out. Ha, ha, ha! And I died laughing at that Cauldron fabric story. That’s a gorgeous piece of “dirty” fabric! I would have celebrated too!
Thanks for another great video. Your Stitch Con recap with the gifts gave me great ideas for when I attend Stitch North next year. That bauble bird pattern is fabulous! I'll make it for my sister who is also my best friend. Love watching the two of you together.
I just enjoy your videos so much! Never too long and worth the wait!❤️❤️❤️
Loved every minute, so fun and lots of great suggestions. Very inspiring. Thank you for sharing your time. ❤️😀☕️🇨🇦
Incredible design Amity, the finish looks amazing! I love this raccoon pattern ha. That chunky arm! Great haul! Can't wait to see Sir Thomas started :). Thanks for a great video!
I just found your channel and have been binge watching your previous episodes. I love your videos! Congratulations on the new pattern release! The bauble birds are so cute.
Amity, I really enjoy your floss choices for Long Dog Samplers. I love seeing them progress as your vision comes to life. And Erinn, that bright fabric for Stitchers RSVP is the best. That finish is going to look really cool. Thanks for another fun video!
Love visiting with you, your laughter is good for the soul. Amity, Bauble Birds is great...it reminds me of the decor of the 50s-60s in its clean style. Great stitch, great memories.
Thank you so much! ♥️
The "corn"ers! LOL That's so good!
Ohhhh‼️I took a screen shot of that bauble♥️I asked around at three shops, and no one knew of it, but loved it! Now I can buy it, yay‼️
I love the pattern Schitt's Creek sampler you designed, bought it as soon as I saw harborstitcher's post of it! All my cross stitch patterns are organized in SC binders that I have scoured the internet to find. You guys rock!!
Love the bauble pattern. Such a fun flosstube as usual❤
Thank you both for another fun video. Your finishes and wips are lovely. And Stitch Con, I felt like I was there with you. I’m planning on going next June! (Hopefully). I stitched the purple bat by Barbie. It was a fun stitch with Cobweb Corner and flosstuber Helen D last year. I stitched it in black on mottled orange fabric. I love it. Happy stitching until next time.
Love the colors in the Bauble Birds pattern!! The only pattern of Amity’s I don’t have! So talented!! Great video as always 😊
Such a great video as always! I'm so glad you had a great time at the retreat and fabulous haul. bauble💗
Oh my goodness!!! My grandma completed the same tapestry finish you purchased from Etsy (first one shown) when she was pregnant with my dad in 1952. She had it framed and displayed in her home until she passed. My mom recently offered it to me! I also think it is such a beautiful design!
Oh, how fun!! It's such a beautiful piece. I can't wait to restore it - I might make it a pillow!
Always look forward to your videos! The bauble birds are beautiful!
Wow! Your Pointed Fifth looks amazing! I love all the colors. Happy stitching ❤
Thank you so much! ♥️
I’m obsessed with that winter snowfall pattern, i definitely want to start that someday but I had no idea there was beads! 😮 fire bauble 🔥🎄
Fantastic flosstube! Love all your projects. ❤❤❤
Love you two incredible ladies! Amity, your retro style christmas stitch is FABULOUS!! Bauble all the way!
.
Thank you so much! ♥️
Your designs are so fresh and new and oh so beautiful!! Cannot wait to stitch them! ❤
Thank you so much! ♥️
Love those Bauble birds! Another fun video ladies. For Amity and the smelly fabric, there is a product called MaryEllen's Smell Away. I believe I found it at Joanns. It is a spray and does help get rid of smells in fabric. I am happy to see you are going to start Sir Thomas, I am about 3/4 of the way through him. You will love it!.
Hello from Tennessee! I so enjoyed stitching with you this morning! You had me roflmao! "Game of thrones is fun". Please film her comments after watching some of it. 😂😂😂. My dad had a saying he used any time he talked about a movie or show...."they all die in the end".... I'm happy to share that with you so you can use it later. 😂😂😂. Thank you for the critter update. I'm so glad we have that in common too. ( Fire , Bauble ) Love you both bunches!
Love your flosstube! Always makes me smile. So much good stitching ❤
Thank you so much! ♥️
Hey guy’s loved you video, I stitched bird nerd for my son-in-law and now he wants me to stitch your “Bauble Birds”. Thank you for sharing ❤
I’m thrilled that I’m not alone is hating the beach. I cannot roll my eyes far enough in the back of my head to express the feeling I get when someone suggests vacationing at the beach. #nahhhh
Also, love those Pray for Me stitches. Hilarious!
You two just crack me up. I got to spend some time with my sisters,who live opposite corners of US, and we sounded like you. Game of thrones story: it seemed every time I walked in on my son and friends [adults] there were unclothed people on the huge screen we have in our media room. Finally, in season four I saw an iron clad woman and the boys clapped because finally I can believe they were watching a real show. I did see season four before we went to Dubrovnik where a lot of it was filmed. ‘Fun’ is not an adjective for this series--still laughing.
That shawl is gorgeous! Send her some more project bags!
OMG, I canNOT watch your videos without 1) laughing my head off and 2) wanting to buy things!! I keep reminding myself, "I have cross stitch at home...I have cross stitch at home..." LOL I have to get my version of "Stubborn" finished, then I can share in my next video.
Oh dear you two are a hoot and all of the SALS, and love your new pattern Amity! I traveled for my job via airplane for work for about 30 years and I truly believe high altitudes affect your chewing gum! Mine really never lasted that long to be honest, I was always chewing on take off and arrival, and it was so nice to be able to pack a cross stitch project in my suitcase to work on while away! Cross stitch is so portable! 😁 Amity you are not alone, I don't watch tv, so not Game of Thrones for me either, no idea what it is even about!
Those bauble birds are so cute - I definitely will have to do it.
All the finishes look fabulous 😊
Thank you so much! ♥️
Great video! I love those scenery patterns from ice and fire really cool! Great finishes and great projects!
Thanks, Hanna! ♥️
That purple fabric for your Halloween stitch is gorgeous and it’s perfect for that chart. You two are so lucky to live near each other I’m in SD and my sister is in WV. Love the colors you picked for the Bauble chart.
Clearly all the cool kids live in the midwest! haha I gotta get my act together! So amazing to meet y'all and so excited for all the additional enabling that will go on at Stitch North! 🤣
Really like the new bauble and birds pattern! Awesome to see christmas patterns without snow.
Thank you so much! ♥️
Wonderful as always! Thank you for sharing. ❤❤
Love watching your videos and the bauble pattern is amazing!
Bauble is lovely!
Seeing your Long Dog Samplers, especially SAGA (birds on arches! amazing!), makes me want to start another right away. I just finished The New Normal this past weekend and I’m itching to jump into another one. They’re surprisingly addictive! 😂
Loved this so much! Your laughter is contagious. Strawberry Time is on my to-stitch list, this makes me want to start it sooner than later, your finish is lovely Erinn. I've always admired Sir Thomas (possibly my favourite Glendon Place chart...) but I don't think I can commit quite that much time to a turkey lol (even though I am a signed up bird nerd). Speaking of birds, Bauble Birds is beautiful, congrats on the release Amity! When I saw your names announced for Midsummer Stitch I was so hoping to get the chance to meet you both, but your slot is 2am-4am here and I just can't handle that - time zones suck :( Fingers crossed our paths may cross at another point in the event.
Always look forward to the laughs, giggles and deep thoughts. 🤣 I had to stitch Sleepy Hollow. Erinn, the enabler made me do it. Ordered from 123Stitch. They are only 20 minutes from my house. I saved the crazy screw video. 😉 Y’all are the best!
I enjoyed your video while I sat and stitched. I always enjoy a good haul too!
Bauble
Congratuations on the release of Bauble Birds- it's beautiful! It sounds like you had a wonderful time at Stitch-Con. Happy stitching!
Sleepy Halloween 😍😍😍Christmas Caper!? ❤❤❤ these are both going on the’to find’ list. See you at Midsummer Stitch 🎉
Another great video. I must say I laugh out loud every video. Love you both. The bauble is beautiful. I appreciate that you put the names of floss tubers a the hashtag on the screen. Easy to copy. See you next time.
Sullivan's ball tip needles are the BEST! Of course, those are the ones I lose all the time.
I'm also working on the squishedbirdsal - I love this pattern so much!
Love this video so much, so many great projects and plans. Also I now don't feel so alone in my nine SAL starts in July 😆
The bauble with the cardinals pattern is gorgeous.
Thank you so much! ♥️
Love your videos! Your new bauble and birds chart is beautiful!!! I love hearing about all your plans. I’m a planner but I rarely follow through on more than one or two sals or starts that I’ve intended to get to 😊
Bauble. Love it! Love you! Thanks for being YOU! ❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much! ♥️
Lovely to see you back and so pleased you had a fun time. Bauble birds (and all the other birds) look fabulous 🪡🧵🐦
What a wonderful new design. Bauble Bird pattern is wonderful. Amity wow. It is nice to see you ladies again. Stitch con sounds fun.
I'm going to keep an eye out for broken-paned stained glass at the antique stores around me in case I think I can frame a bauble in it! Might be difficult, but what a great idea.
Everyone needs a Bauble or two for their holiday decor.
Glad to see you back! Amity, feel better dear! Erin, you can do those smaller counts! Love all the stitching. 🪡🧵☮️🌻
Such a fun video full of beautiful stitching. I'm working on Welcome to the North Pole for my Christmas in July. I'm hoping for a finish on it. The bauble chart is lovely.
Ya Heard with Perd 😂 what a fun idea for a retirement gift! GOT is a good adventure. "Dragony things and fighting" is one of the best recaps you could give!
It was such a fun retirement gift idea! I really should have a job reviewing shows and movies. 😅
Baubles pattern is wonderful!
A friend of mine is a prolific knitter (I knit, too, but I’m slow and have too many other hobbies to get much done). She recently gave a pile of shawls to my mom’s independent/assisted living facility. They gave them out and the ladies there were thrilled to have them. ETA: Bauble Birds is lovely! 💚
oh Happy Finishes ladies! I love your new Bauble pattern.
Thank you so much! ♥️
Yay! Excited to meet you at Stitch North! Love the Bauble Birds! LOL the cross stitch with the raccoon doing laundry reminded my husband that he had to do laundry tonight.
So funny that you turned SAL into a verb! You are being so brave by trying all these new things! I loved seeing the many gorgeous patterns I haven't seen before!
Your Flosstube was “Fun”. 😂 Fire 🔥
Also, I'm really excited to attend your live-stitching session during Mid-Summer!
Thank you so much! We're so excited!!
Great to see you again. So happy you enjoyed Stitch Con. Take care!
Amity, I am with you on the beach…I don’t understand baking myself on hot sand, under an umbrella that just stifles the hot air!!!! And I’m certainly not getting in the water…there’s stuff in there that will eat me…well, except this week, cause all the sharks are on TV for shark week!!,😂😂😂
It's the literal worst. 🏖 I LOL at your shark week comment. 😂😂
Thanks for sharing your great projects and fabrics with us. You girls crack me up!
Amity, you have a bright and successful designing future ahead of you! I love your designs.Bauble Bird is adorable!💕
Oh, I love the Bauble pattern! I’m registered for Stitch North in Oct and have been on the fence about confirming my flights. Now that I know you two are going I’m more excited.
Oh, how fun! We can't wait to meet you!
Enjoy your floss tubes so much!
Fire Bauble
Welcome back! We missed you! I love Amity’s new pattern: Bauble Birds!
Baubles!!! I love watching your youbtube and love your flowers pattern ever since Cam the stitcher showed her progress....but I never knew you were the same person til today😅😮😅!!!
And now I'm wondering if Amity watched the trailer for the NEW show or the real one :) The idea for that book is FIRE! It's really hard to make a sentence with the word Bauble. Thanks for the giveaways!
Oh, I need to add a bauble to my Christmas decor!
