Congratulations on the growth of your channel. Love the buttons. They add a new look to pillows that are one dimensional when you only stitch them. Your new spring patterns are adorable. Great job Drew on the barn quilt. They are very lucky cats to have a home with you.
I need that robin! Congratulations on gaining so many subscribers! Good job on the barn quilt, Drew. Thanks for the kind words, Rhonda. I like the buttons, but I like the stitched one better. I think it's more prim.
Your patterns are awesome. Love the pillows and the buttons. Enjoy Drew and love his cat barn quilt. Wish I had your talent, your cross stitch patterns are so cool.
Love the buttons on the pillow ,so cute..I love all your patterns and am looking forward to future creations.Have fun with the boxes .,I love doing things like that.Drew your barn quilt is very nice,you seem to have inherited your mothers creative gene.well done.
Great video! I think you design beautiful prim patterns, especially the spring has sprung set. It’s a tough choice between with the buttons pattern or the stitched pattern. And Drew, you did a great job on the pattern for the cat shed. You show creativity in your design. Well done!
Great floss tube, love your ideas! I really like the buttons, cute. Great idea with your eggs, special in your tow. I will be back, thank you very much 🤗🌷
A cigar humidor - that makes a lot more sense! The price tag had bread box written on it and I was having trouble making it be a bread box! Thanks for letting me know! And thanks for watching!
Thank you for the shoutout! The trims look wonderful coffee stained, gives a beautiful prim finish. Loved seeing the chicks 🐥 ❤. Drew, your design for the cat shed is fantastic! Congratulations to both of you on the success of your channel 🎉
My mom called this morning and said she still had hers too. I knew about the boxes and that they were given out to girls in high school but had forgotten about it. Then when I opened the box and saw it was a Lane I remembered. I should have looked at it closer in the store! I wonder when they stopped giving them out? I graduated in 1985 and we didn't get them. I'm afraid Hope Chests just aren't a thing anymore although I think they should be!
Hello Drew and Rhonda: I hear the baby chicks, they are so sweet, please show us your flock sometime. I love punch needle but have never tried it, maybe I should. I prefer a land line at home, the sheep are so cute. Your box turned out perfect, you have so many adorable pillows, they look perfect in the basket. We have Robins, many some even stay around for the winter here in Minnesota, we have ornamental trees with berries, they eat berries in the winter. Love the Robin design, I just bought God Shed His Grace and Bumble Bee 3 from you, I have to wait till Easter Sunday to stitch I gave up stitching for Lent. I am a one at a time stitcher. Great box finds, I like the frame idea. Love the cat finish, perfect, I have seen many wood barn quilts in Minnesota, see you soon. Congratulation on getting more subscribers.
We'll have to show the flock sometime. I'll try to get a good picture of them when they're out free ranging. You should try punch needle - it's a fun craft and compared to cross stitch you can finish a project very quickly! I don't know that I could give up stitching for Lent. That would be a hard one for me. But I guess that is the point - it's not supposed to be easy. I'm monogamous stitcher. I like to start and finish before moving on. Thank you for the purchases and thank you for watching us. Happy stitching when Lent is over!
I LOVE all your patterns! Would love to see you design a word pattern that says Cross Stitcher or Needle Worker! The baby chicks are so cute! Enjoy watching you and your Son.... Yes... I love the buttons!
Your patterns are lovely. The Lane chests used to be given you High School senior girls for graduation. You would receive a certificate and take it to the furniture store where you would pick up your box. I still have mine and I graduated forty nine years ago this June! I can hardly believe I’m saying that. I’ve kept so many treasures in my Lane box. And yes, it still smells like cedar.
When I brought the box home I hadn't paid any attention to what it actually was until I opened it up to show on the video. My mom still has her box. I knew the story behind them but had forgotten all about them. I wonder when they stopped gifting them? I graduated in 1985 and we didn't get Lane boxes.
Most people don’t know that about the boxes now. Wonderful that you Mother still has hers, too! I don’t know when they stopped. I’m going to research. Many companies gave away lovely gifts for promotion back in the day.
Your spring set is really nice. I love looking for the robins every spring. We have had them here in Ohio for several weeks. I love your t-shirt. Drew is good at coming up with great projects. If I lived closer I'd have him repair my sweeper.
I Love the buttons…adds a whole different look! Love those little bees too 🐝🐝🌸🌸. All your patterns are winners with me ♥️. Drew your barn quilt is adorable. Great job. Nothing wrong with prettying things up 🐝🪻🌻🐈⬛🐈
I’m so thrilled to have inspired you with my little stitching boxes to go out and gather some cool and unique options to get creative with! That’s why I love sharing what I have played with, so others can get excited about making their own special creations. I first saw Lori on Mischievous Stitches make something with one. Love the new trio! I think I had seen it on the Etsy shop, but it really looked amazing when you shared it in the video. It’s already in my cart! Keep designing!
Yes - you definitely inspired me! And now I've ordered some cabochons and Diamond Glaze to make some bling for my floss rings. I'm new to your Flosstube so I'm going back and watching your older ones and getting lots of ideas! I would love to live in a cabin in the woods - and even not have running water. That would be an adventure! Thanks for watching!
The buttons are cute as accents. I like the stitching better. Maybe if there was a big bee the bee scape could go next to the bee and not be the main focus.
Your “trio” designs are great! Love how they coordinate so nicely. Drew’s painting is super nice. I like the buttons, but probably would stick to your more prim stitched version.
Great video love all your new releases so adorable and love the buttons. I love watching Bonnie’s videos stitching and quilting. The chicks 🐥 are so adorable. Great quilting board for the cats came out great!Have a wonderful weekend and happy stitching 😊🧵🪡🤗🤩
I heard about you on the Log Cabin Stitcher. Your willow project is gorgeous. I also like the buttons. That's a cool barn quilt for the cats! It's always a spring contest to see who sees the first robin!
Sew COOL Drew! Love your new patterns .The buttons do add more prim .The boxes that have lids that stay up, could you put your cross stitch on the inside of the lid, then finish the inside so it looks pretty and fill with goodies ? Have watched all your videos and also watch Doreen!💕
That's a good idea. I might have to try finishing the inside of the lid sometime. If I find a really nice box with a great finish on the lid that would be perfect as I struggle covering up something that is already nice!
Thank you! I love Hickety Pickety too - she has the neatest primitive designs and I love her videos. Drew has the cat barn board hung up on his cat shed now - it looks great!
Beautiful punch needle piece. I do a lot of punch needle. I think I do more punch needle now then I do Crosstitch. I just love the look of punch needle and the fact that I don’t have to concentrate on what I’m doing as much as Crosstitch where you have to be or at least I do , quite so I can count right. Anyway you did a nice job on your punch needle piece
I'm a newbie when it comes to punch needle. I have tried it in the past and decided to get it out again. I love how it looks and I agree, you don't have to concentrate like you do with cross stitch. Thank you for watching!
From what I can find on line the boxes were given from 1925 through 2004. The problem with distribution became a problem starting in 1980’s when furniture companies could not readily obtain names and addresses of many graduates. I’m thinking maybe privacy laws?
We must have read the same thing! I researched them too. I knew they had been gifted to senior girls but I didn't know much more than that. My mom just gifted me hers. I graduated in 1985 and didn't receive one. It was interesting to learn about them!
So happy to see you two again! You are both so creative! go back and watch Bonnie , the log cabin, stitcher’s old videos, she is amazing and very prim. 💞
I think I'll be watching a lot of Bonnie's old videos. I agree, she is amazing. She has the most beautiful prim stitches and her quilts are gorgeous. Thanks for watching!
I think the buttons are cute and add a dimension to the cross stitch-- I do not "do" facebook so would want another source. Thank you for another inspriring video.
Are you on Instagram? Jean is on there under buttonjean56. She posts her buttons and you can contact her through there. She has some really nice buttons.
Thank you and you are welcome! Drew did do a great job didn't he?! And today, in the rain, the cats are all curled up outside the back door and not in their nice dry cat shed!
A new subscriber here so I will go backwards and watch. I love the chicken wall hanging behind you! We bought chicks a year ago and it’s true about chicken math. We have a dozen more coming next week!😂 Patterns are cute and I love the buttons. Is your metal box a humidor for tobacco? Nice find! Love the cat barn quilt! Enjoyed the video very much!
Welcome! Thank you so much for subscribing. I've talked about the wall hanging in past videos. It's a Cinnamon Creek pattern. Chicken math - we have 12 more ordered to. Because - they're chickens! The box is a humidor for tobacco. The tag said bread box and I couldn't make that make sense so I appreciate everyone telling me what it really is!
I enjoyed your video very much and your patterns! I have already purchased a couple of your patterns. Good job Drew on the cat shed. The chickens were beautiful. Do you have a lot of other animals? Sue Chavanne, Buffalo, N.Y.
Thank you for watching and for purchasing my patterns! We have chickens, cats, a dog, and hermit crabs right now. I really want goats but so far my husband says no. I think he's afraid if we get goats, then I'll want sheep, a horse, a cow. And he would be right! So I just keep getting more chickens!
Love your new pattern designs! Drew did such a great job on his sign for the cat shed. Always enjoy your videos. Thank you ❤
Thank you and thank you for watching!
I really like Drew's cat quilt square he made for his cat shed. Great job! Very creative.
He did do a good job didn't he? I'll tell him you liked it! Thank you for watching!
Congratulations on the growth of your channel. Love the buttons. They add a new look to pillows that are one dimensional when you only stitch them. Your new spring patterns are adorable. Great job Drew on the barn quilt. They are very lucky cats to have a home with you.
I agree - the buttons add a new look to the one dimensional pillows. We do have very lucky cats. They are quite spoiled!
I need that robin! Congratulations on gaining so many subscribers!
Good job on the barn quilt, Drew.
Thanks for the kind words, Rhonda. I like the buttons, but I like the stitched one better. I think it's more prim.
Didn't Drew do a good job on the barn quilt! We have very spoiled cats!
Love the duo. Chicks were nice too.
Thank you!!!
Your patterns are awesome. Love the pillows and the buttons. Enjoy Drew and love his cat barn quilt. Wish I had your talent, your cross stitch patterns are so cool.
Thank you so much for the kind words! Thanks for watching us!
Love your designs! And I love the buttons! Yes, do more designs with them. Take care!
I am definitely planning on more designs with buttons. So glad you like them! Thanks for watching!

Thank you! I haven't had time to do anything with the boxes but am looking forward to experimenting! Thank you for watching us!
Love the buttons especially in your 3 pillow grouping. I will be watching for more ideas ?

Enjoy you two! And love your new patterns!

A cigar humidor - that makes a lot more sense! The price tag had bread box written on it and I was having trouble making it be a bread box! Thanks for letting me know! And thanks for watching!
Hello! I will finish watching, tomorrow! The baby chickens are too cute!!!!11
Thanks for watching! We have some spoiled baby chickens!
Cute chicks! Love the egg stand idea.
Love the bumble bee set, and the one with the buttons!
Thank you! The chicks are growing like crazy! They'll be laying eggs for the stand before we know it!
Thank you for the shoutout! The trims look wonderful coffee stained, gives a beautiful prim finish. Loved seeing the chicks 🐥 ❤. Drew, your design for the cat shed is fantastic! Congratulations to both of you on the success of your channel 🎉
Thank you! And thank you for the awesome trims!
Love the buttons.
Thank you!!!
When I was in high school 1976. The girls were all given a lane cedar chest box. It was a promotional to sell full sized ones. I still have mine.
My mom called this morning and said she still had hers too. I knew about the boxes and that they were given out to girls in high school but had forgotten about it. Then when I opened the box and saw it was a Lane I remembered. I should have looked at it closer in the store! I wonder when they stopped giving them out? I graduated in 1985 and we didn't get them.
