    There I was, minding my own business, stitching and watching FlossTube when “Thread Gremlins” pops up on my ‘suggested’ feed. Well, I’ve got to say THAT was a great suggestion because now you guys are my newest FlossTube obsession! So much fun. LOVE the Thread Gremlins stitch - it’s stunning! Can’t wait to see the next video. Thanks so much for doing what you do. 💜

    I love watching you guys! It cracks me up because your stitching styles are so different, but I can see my own stitching style in each! I don't always mark off my patterns, and I try and keep my backs neat, but I usually give up and carry (I try to figure out if I would use more or less thread starting and stopping or carrying) and if it can been seen from thr front I will not carry. When I've washed my pieces (with specialty threads and hand dyed fabric, it's not always doable), I use soak (I got it from my local yarn store) because its supposed to be so gentle.

    So nice to see you ladies again. You're always fun! I'm also working on the Herb Panel piece and find the one strand makes it harder to have a neat back (I use loop start when I use 2 strands so that is much neater). I think the name is from the fact that Herb means plant, rather than necessarily edible plant. (eg in the Bible it talks about the herbs of the field)

    • @Elizabeth-pj5if
      @Elizabeth-pj5if 3 місяці тому +1

      That makes sense with the name! I think the herb panel might be the most difficult thing I’ve ever stitched.

    I make stockings for most family members and some have divorced and I got the stockings back. I removed the name and put a new name on it. It has to go now to someone born into the family in case there is some bad jui-jui attached to it. And I never told them they were getting a second hand stocking. So I think it's fine to put a name and give away your ex's stocking. Love watching ya'll together .

    • @Lisa-vb3gn
      @Lisa-vb3gn Місяць тому +1

      Depending on the count of the fabric, I consider how much floss will be consumed by ending and starting vs carrying. I stitch a lot on 25 ct over 1. It’s quite a difference to my other projects which are 18 ct.

    Beautiful happy clothes girls. Luv your Thea. Those ARE Herbs!!! And the red clover is so good and healthy for you in many ways. There is a lot of estrogen in it.
    Thread Gremlins has such a lot of lovely threadamental stories to it! 🎉
    Turn the ex's stocking into a pin cushion. 😂
    Or is that too mean? A cat's stocking? 😂 Yeah, if it is a mean cat.😼 Not a sweet cat. 😻
