@@Kevonacrafts Thank you for the lovely kind words.
Lovely video Sally! So happy I was one of the lucky ones to see what was inside your incredible birthday package at the big stitch :) looking forward to the Halloween stitching too! Xx
Thanks for watching Shell! It was a fantastic package wasn't it- so glad I could open it with you all there as I think you all got as much pleasure as I did from it! Happy Stitching and quacking soon! 🧵🪡🦆😍😍
Lovely video, Sally - lovely stitchy kindness, lovely projects and lovely chat. (How many times can I say "lovely" 😍)
I don't have a lot of Halloween patterns but the LovePoppet one is very cute and the colours are gorgeous. Need to stitch more. And faster. ❤
Oh I need to stitch so much faster to do all I want to!! Need to retire sooner rather than later 🤣🤣🤣
Love watching your video… love listening to your accent! I feel like I’ve made so many new friends by watching these FlossTubes!! My how stitching has changed over the years!! I’m about to celebrate my 50 years of graduating from high school so you can see I’m an old, old stitcher😊
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoy watching - isn't it wonderful to have so many friends dotted around the world who we can all chat to about our stitching! I love it! And we are such a variety of ages - but all get on which is just wonderful! Happy Stitching 🪡🧵❤️
Great video as always. I enjoy seeing all your stitching progress and listening to your future plans. Halloween is one of my favourite times of year to stitch for
Happy stitching 😊❤
Thank you Elizabeth! Happy Stitching 🪡🧵❤️
Great video as always. Great progress on all your stitches. Loved seeing your wonderful gifts. I think September 1st is a perfect time to start decorating for Halloween!
I think I will go with September 1st! I need to take some Easter decorations down that are still up too 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Happy Stitching 🪡🧵❤️
Wow…you got so much stitched even though you had time away camping. It is definitely time to start stitching Halloween…it is my daughter’s favorite season. You are doing great with your 50 starts…I am going for 63 this year to match my age. I think I can do it. Take care. 🦉🧵🪡😀
It was the week that Felicity was away that meant I did quite a bit of stitching! I think i could easily go over 50 new starts this year as have a few things I still want to start but I won't now until 2025. Will be interested to see how many I start next year with no challenge! Happy Stitching 🪡🧵❤️
Halloween is my favorite time of the year
Mine too!! Happy Halloween stitching 🪡🧵🧙♀️👻
What a joy it always is to catchup with you even though I see some of your progress in between. I say - decorate for Halloween whenever you want! I’ve had one autumn pillow out since last October 😂😂😂
I think as soon as Felicity goes back to school I'll be getting the Halloween decs out! Happy Stitching my lovely friend 😘😘😘😘
Lovely video, with some really cute finishes. I'm going to weekend 2 of Stitch in London next month, so if you are going to that weekend it will be lovely to meet you. Happy Stitching, love Clare xxx
Oh heck! I'm going weekend 1! Missed you at The Big Stitch too!
@@flossysewsandgrows Haha! I think we are destined to keep missing each other! xxx
Hello dear Sally! It's so wonderful to see you again 👋😊 That was an absolute load of lovelies! Everything you have been working on, and the beautiful stitchy kindness gifts. 😍 Your Fancey Blackett is coming along nicely 🧙. I finished stitching mine because I only have a few wips 😉 Lori and I plan to start "Turkey Trot" together soon. Take care and happy stitching! 💜🩷💜 Laurel
Hi Laurel! Thanks for watching! I hope I won't be too long with Shoo but I am loving it! I would love to stitch some of the Fancey Blacketts that the ladies have already done and then keep joining in! Happy Stitching 🪡🧵❤️
Lovely video Thankyou , some great inspirational projects….looking forward to a happy Halloween stitching project ☺️👋
Thank you for watching! Happy Stitching 🪡🧵❤️
Great video Sally. Your parcel was worth the lost suitcase worry. Such beautiful gifts.
Love all your stitching as always. Full of colour & inspiration.
Take care, best wishes from 🇮🇪
Thank you my lovely friend! It was a stressful wait for the case so glad it arrived in the end. Happy Stitching 🪡🧵❤️
Hallo Sally thank you for a wonderful video. And showing all your beautiful projects. What a good ideas to swop up the pattern with Sarah, I was hoping that you both do that 👍 I've chubby bird to maybe I can join you when ever you gone stitch it😂 for nog you have enough starts for this year (and I want to finish few projects 😅) happy stitching Sally see you next time 🎉
Thank you so much for watching Thea and thank you so much for my beautiful gifts. I think Sarah and I will definitely swap and there will be a Chubby SAL of some sort!! I think next year is doable lol. Happy Stitching my dear friend 🪡🧵❤️❤️
Great video, as always. I have started stitching Halloween already 🤪 I don't really stop 😂❤❤
Thank you Sallyann! I do love Halloween too! I probably stitch more of it than anything else - even Christmas!!! Happy Stitching 🪡🧵❤️
Sally!! Greetings from Dallas! You are such a lucky girl!!! All that stitchy kindness from your friend, Ruth, was just amazing!! What a find she made with just all those DMC flosses!! It’s always such a treat to get your flosstubes. And It’s been fun seeing all your starts for your 50th birthday. It would be so lovely to meet you in person. Maybe one day I’ll get to one of the UK retreats that you go to. Or maybe you’ll come to Caroline’s Stitch North retreat in Toronto!! Just think of all those lovely Roxy Floss Co. threads and linens you’d be able to buy!!! LOL!!! Thats the one retreat that I go to every year. Caroline is such a dear friend. Hope the summer is being nice to you. It was 106 here yesterday following a week of triple digit heat. Ugh!! I’m ready for some autumn weather and cozy stitches. Hugs!!!
Hi Michael! Thanks so much for watching. I really was so spoilt by the wonderful Ruth and also Thea - it really does blow me away how we can have such connections with stitchy friends, even in other countries, thanks to technology! How about coming to Big Stitch 2026?? I will definitely come to Stitch North but it will be in a few years time when my daughter is a bit older. I need to enjoy having her want to spend time with me for now as it won't be long and she will be off exploring herself and I will need to keep myself occupied 🤣🤣🤣 I have so many friends now who I will be able to meet at Stitch North - exciting!!! It is a cool summer here - we are certainly not getting the heat you are but it is just typical UK! Happy Stitching my friend 🪡🧵❤️
Hi, I found your channel a couple of weeks ago and I am loving watching your videos. I am very new to cross stitch still working on my very first one. I find it very relaxing. I love all the Halloween cross stitch patterns I have seen. Take care.
Thank you for watching and commenting. I hope you enjoy getting your first stitch done! It is a bit of a rabbit hole this cross stitch hobby - you'll have a couple of projects on the go in no time at all!! Happy Stitching 🪡🧵❤️
What a fabulous parcel from Ruth! So many goodies to enjoy. I’ve been stitching Ten Merry sailors tonight while watching and cannot believe you are cheating by not doing the alphabet and border! 😱 Seriously, though that’s a great call and it does hold its own without them. If only I hadn’t started stitching little bits of each🙄. When you showed Thea’s chubby bird my first thought was that we must swap and then you said it! So that’s definitely on the cards. But no, I’m not doing 51 starts next year. You’re on your own with that craziness 😉🤣🤣🤣
@@sewmesarah Thank you Sarah. I love your fast reply no 51 starts next year. Happy Stitching.
@@countrygal854 🤣🤣just don’t want Sally getting ideas😉
Hahahaha! Such a light bulb moment when Alex gave it as an option! I'm sure it won't take you long to stitch both though 🤣🤣🤣 Glad you are happy to swap the chubby bird and bee 😀 Now when to fit them in......🤣🤣
Another fantastic video, Sally. I, too, love stitching and decorating for Halloween and Autumn. It could be my favourite stitchy season. I'm feeling guilty about watching your joint video with Sarah on Sarah's channel, so I will watch it again on yours to help you get more views!
Thank you Terri! And don't feel guilty! I was lucky some of Sarah's viewers popped over and watched me for the first time so I gained some new friends as a result ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Wow such a lovely package from your friend Ruth. I hope you make 2000 subs by your birthday ❤
Not many subs to go! So spoilt with my gorgeous parcel from Ruth. Happy Stitching 🪡🧵❤️
So nice to see you again! Your videos always brighten my day. I've never really cared about Halloween but I do love stitching Halloween projects. I think your birthday is right before my son's. His is September 30th. Take care.
Yes it is! Mine is the 26th! We do have friends that often have us over for Halloween and all the kids can go out trick or treating together. It wasn't a thing when I was young but more people like to decorate their houses here now. I do love Halloween stitching though! I love the witches and pumpkins!! Happy Stitching 🪡🧵❤️
Lovely video and lovely stitching as always ❤ I think the 1st of September is fine to start decorating for Halloween I have some decorations that stay up year round 🦇🦇🦇
I can't wait to decorate! Thanks for watching and happy stitching 🧵🪡❤️
Another lovely stitching session with you, friend! Great stitching! How funny about the 51 starts but also true. How are we going to get everything stitched? : ) And you are doing a great job keeping your wip count down. Can't wait to hear more about your camping trip! We hope to go out soon, as soon as it cools down a bit. Happy stitching friend!
Thank you Amy! Soooo many new charts and so much I want to stitch! Hope it is a bit cooler for you now. It is beautiful here now - about right as the kids go back to school next week!! Happy Stitching my lovely xx
My goodness you have been spoilt with all those lovely gifts 🥰. What lovely friends you have❣️
I’m sure Halloween in September is completely acceptable (& all year round if you ask Sam 🤣) although I have to admit I’m clinging on to the remnants of summer, it feels like summer has been far too short to let it go just yet ! xxxx
Summer has been way to short I agree! I am holding out for a little bit longer but I think once Flis has gone back to school 🧙♀️🎃👻
Sorry for the late response, but not had chance to catch flosstube for a while. I think the ship pattern looks great without the border and alphabet - maybe even better than the orig 😘
Great minds and all that! That's what I decided too and another episode or two on you will see I've finished it! Just need to FFO it now 🤣🤣
I watched this some days ago, but did not comment as I think the phone rang or something like that. 🙈
Did you mention a zoom with Alex? I thought I had seen a story from Alex (or it could have been someone else in Europe) asking if people would be interested in a regular zoom and what day/time would suit. I thought I had answered, but never heard back. It sounded in your Flosstube as if you had taken part in something like that....?
Enjoyed your video😍 Happy stitching 🪡🧵🥰
Alex and I have become really good friends after meeting at the Jingle Ball and catch up on Zoom every couple of weeks! I think she may also have done a Zoom last week for some new friends so keep an eye on her Instagram in case she does it again! I couldn't make that one but sounds like fun! Happy Stitching xx
Thank you, I will keep an eye on her account. 😊
Found you thorough Caroline from.evertote. I have a watched a few of your videos and like your accent and the projects you stitch.
Awww how wonderful! It was fantastic to meet Caroline at Big Stitch. Thanks for coming over and happy stitching 🧵🪡❤️
Very spoilt with all your lovely goodies 🥰🪡🧵🪡 enjoy 😊😊 I’m trying to have a sort out and get organised 😂 kitting up patterns I’ve got etc 😮🤔🙃😬 way too many especially as quite a few are full coverage ones 😂🤣😬 hope you get plenty of stitching in 🪡🪡🪡xx
Thanks for watching Gay! I have been so spoilt this summer! I have also been trying to get organised and think about next year. I am going to be on a buying ban for sure as now have sooooo much stash! Need a challenge for next year to keep me going lol. Happy Stitching my lovely xx
