Good morning Nicola! I so enjoyed my first retreat and meeting you, Claudia and Kathy. I made so many new friends. I loved walking around each table to see what each person was stitching. So many talented stitchers. It was a wonderful retreat!
It was so lovely to see you Nicola! your projects and presentation were wonderful!! I always learn so much from you and enjoy your patience and good cheer! 💚
Thank you, thank you for such a wonderful retreat! And, it was simply beautiful meeting you❤️ The projects and gifts from you are treasured and I absolutely love my “Norman” scissor holder. In this flosstube, aside from the wonderful items you brought home from Hobby House, I especially loved the book ‘Objets de Folie’ and the passage you read from the Introduction. It really tugged at my heart that her son has been so observant of her passion and craft. Lovely that one of your HATS samplers was among her gorgeous pieces❤️. Until next time, hugs to you and “the boys”!
Good Morning Nicola! You certainly pack a lot into a visit. Thank you for your warm greeting Friday morning at the hotel. I enjoyed my visit meeting so many wonderful friendly stitchers. I even came home with a few stitching tips. Stay well. You bring joy to us all. I look forward to next year’s Great British Sampler Weekend. See you then. Kathy from Syracuse

Stay safe Counting our blessings… Let us rise to it… Sharon , Ohio 🇺🇸
Thank you, Nicola, for a wonderful weekend at Hobby House. Your workshop and that of Claudia's were amazing. I haven't started Amelia yet as I am working to finish Florence Mary, but my ribbon band is ready to assemble. I have been doing counted cross stitch for 62 years and thanks to you I am always learning something new.
I'm very glad that your trip was very enjoyable! So good to see that you're well. Looks like I need to get to Hobby House Needleworks, as well. So wonderful to see the dogs today, too! Have a wonderful week, Nicola!
Hi Nicola, Your project of the scissors holder is really pretty. I especially like the scissors that you choose to display in yours in this video. It looks like Berti missed you a lot. His coat looks so shiny and I love the chestnut color of his coat. TTFN
So fun to hear all about your retreat. I’m so looking forward to being at the GBSWCTA next Oct. at Hobby House. I’m going to ask my husband for the small Potoky lamp stand for Christmas. We do a lot of car traveling and he really dislikes finding a safe place for my System 4 Lap stand. 🤗❤️
❤glad to hear your trip went well❤ love the books where can we order them from ?😊 gorgeous linen 😊❤ the needle weaving looks amazing would love to learn it ❤
It looks like your Mini stand is made of plastic, but looking at their website it looks like the Mini Stand is made of wood. And the pictures of the Mini did not show your "lever" on the side. Also there is no color list, although some of them can be made out by their abbreviations - ie YW for yellow, GN for green. others are not so easy! Is there another description somewhere that would help me out? I am interested in one like you have. Is it wood? Thanks so much for the help. Meredeth
Sounds as though you had a lovely time at Hobby House. Flying into the storm does not sound like fun at all! So good to see Bertie Boo, such a sweet boy! Lovely linen, and great ideas for how to use it. Thank you!
@@nicolaparkman I was wondering about that. Your chairs and your home are beautiful. Thanks for your flosstube. I ordered one blue and one red jewelry box. I hope to meet you some day at a retreat.
Thank you for sharing your trip and all your wonderful linen purchases. Such a treat. Loved the scissor holder and finish. Have a happy stitching week.❤❤

Thanks for sharing all the wonderful stitching things with us today! Drooling for sure!

I see now I was looking at the wrong stand! The Modern series has the lever, and the Mini series does not. Thank you!
I'm very glad that your trip was very enjoyable! So good to see that you're well. Looks like I need to get to Hobby House Needleworks, as well. So wonderful to see the dogs today, too! Have a wonderful week, Nicola!

So glad you had a great time in the states. Sounds wonderful!
So much fun to watch.
Bertie & Hugo!
Have a wonderful week and happy stitching 😊🧵🪡🤗🤩
Happy to see Bertie and Hugo this morning! 😍 Your Hobby House retreat sounds like a wonderful time! I sure hope I can get there one day.
Fun and interesting video, as always. Thanks, Nicola!

Where can the first book shown be purchased? Thank you
Hello - here is the link ttps://www.woodenpicketbooks.com/#/
I adore that spool with the sweet little mouse. Is there anyplace that one could get one?
Hello Maggie in the next week or so I will be listing some for sale on the HATS website. I will mention when in a flosstube.

Like your grunge jeans !
Good morning 🌞
Wow I like that wheee did you buy the pattern
Missed you Nicola❤
❤❤❤
Anyone please tell me how we get needles and scissors through airport security? For travel I like to do stitching on the plane , thank you
Hello - it should not be a problem. I always stitch on plane trips. Your scissor blades have to be under 6cms.
Sounds as though you had a lovely time at Hobby House. Flying into the storm does not sound like fun at all! So good to see Bertie Boo, such a sweet boy! Lovely linen, and great ideas for how to use it. Thank you!
Hello Nicola lovely to have you back. Could you tell me if the lapstand is suitable for Q snap frames?.
What is the word you are saying with the cases. Fripperies ?
Hello - yes fripperies. All the pretties such as needle minders, scissors fobs, counting pins - N x
What kind of chair do you sit I. To do most of your stitching
The same style of chair that I sit in to record the videos. It’s a comfortable chair with arms just at the right height.
@@nicolaparkman I was wondering about that. Your chairs and your home are beautiful. Thanks for your flosstube. I ordered one blue and one red jewelry box. I hope to meet you some day at a retreat.
