    Happy 2nd flossaversary!!! The video of Vince playing in the sand was hilarious!! Oh, my gosh! What a beautiful bag you made Chester! And what a genius idea of using his dog tag for a zipper pull! Happy stitching!❤

      Hello, Joyce, so nice to see you. It’s funny how we train our eyes to look for clever things to use as zipper pulls. Chester’s tag was a happy discovery and perfect for his special project bag. Thank you for watching. Happy stitching.

    Hi Sarah - Happy 2nd flossaversary. Goodie for Eva - many good thoughts to her. So glad you spoke out about the right to ask questions of your doctor. I am a Registered Nurse so I am not shy with my doctors. I have even bullied them sometimes into doing what I think should be done. Of course I was right - at least so far. But if I turn out to be wrong in future, I don't care. I will then have peace of mind. By the way, your colours today in your top are really attractive on you. Not that you ever wear colours that don't suit you, but I thought these were particularly nice.

    I love your Chester bag and the way you used his tag as a zipper pull. Such a lovely way to have him with you.

      Hello, Jackie, always good to see you. I am pleased with the Chester project bag. Your wise words about “I can’t” ring true. I can remember a couple of years ago saying to myself, I can’t make a project bag. Well, I changed my mind about that attitude all for the better. I appreciate your inspiration and encouragement. Thank you for watching. Happy stitching, my friend.

    @marleenoceanbreeze6510 4 місяці тому

    Happy 2nd flossiversary, Sarah! Two years ago, I was a relaxed stitcher, unfamiliar with you and your magical laundry baskets. Now, on a regular basis, I face defiant dangling threads (you can just see they have attitude), mini patterns on maxi fabrics, Santas and animals who don’t believe in underwear or even pants, cows with 3 legs (thank goodness the vet had a prosthetic!), and numerous other incidents that inflame the eyeballs and get one afflutter. Yet seeing you regularly has brought me joy and enriched my life, and I’m so glad I got to meet you in person. So, here’s to many more years of friendship and flosstubes.
    Now, let’s start with the most important things - Yay to Eva and her stable cervix; long may it reign! I will keep her, David and your whole family in my thoughts. Yay to Mira, her dotting turned out beautifully. And yay to Vince for his love of sand lol. If I get near a beach again, I will have to try some of his moves … minus, the eating of it though.
    Your finishes are lovely. Christmas Rose is a beautiful tribute to your mom. Also love your tribute to Chester and the project bag you’ve made for it. It’s very touching that you’ve put his dog tag on the zip pull. You’re off to a great start on Florence Mary Dickson. Such a pretty pattern, and cute bird, perhaps a relative of Percy’s. Take care, and happy stitching, my sweet friend.

      Hello, Arleen, so very good to see you. I wish we each had a glass of champagne and I would have you read the first paragraph (perfectly written) as a toast for my flossiversary. I would probably cry and grab the extra fabric from a small project and dab my eyes daintily. I do look forward to many more years of friendship. Thank you for your support, encouragement, well wishes, and most of all your impeccable humor. Take care, my dear friend.

      @@SarahsStitchySpot We can pretend we're toasting with some champagne, though based on your flosstubes, I think you've started without me. It's a good thing though, as someone needs to keep beverage suppliers in business, so you're doing your part for the economy. I wouldn't dare read the first paragraph and have you sniffle into your fabric; seems much of what you use is overdyed, so not colourfast, and then you'd have a big reason to cry. So no tears, but lots of good wishes instead 🥰

I went through a scary few weeks when pregnant with my second son, who in the end, was fine. So I totally understand what you all are going through. Anna is beautiful and amazing. I wouldn’t have the first clue about how to go about creating something like her. And your little guy covered with sand is so cute. When he started eating sand I had to laugh. My second son did exactly the same thing. Such memories. Have a good two weeks and happy stitching.

You have to be your own advocate in your care. You have the right to a second opinion AND your insurance should pay for at least part of it. I like your Chester bag.

    Sarah! What a great FlossTube as always. Love your finishes and your WIPS are coming along beautifully. I totally agree with what you said about asking your Dr questions. My Dr is awesome, he’s the one that always asks me if I have any questions and he always answers them so I understand. I love seeing your videos and pictures of little Vince. He is so cute❤. I watched Lisa’s FlossTube yesterday. I was so happy to see that she posted a video I actually started to cry because I knew then that she was doing better. Looking forward to your next FlossTube ❤

      Good morning, Pauline, so nice to see you. I am happy to hear you have a doctor you can trust and feel comfortable with asking and getting answers to your questions. (may be the longest run on sentence, right?) It was a true joy to see Lisa’s smiling face sharing her beautiful stitching. Thank you for watching and all of your kind support. Happy stitching.

    Continued prayers for Eva. I would love to stitch Big Chicken Little Chicken with you, I have a fear of finishing and really want to learn how to do a mattress finish. Thanks for saying we have the right to ask questions. June 2023 I became very sick and after 7 weeks of back and forth with my primary doctor I told her I thought it was my heart and I was going to die. She put me on blast and said I didn’t have a heart issue. I physically went to my cardiologist to request an appointment and the staff took one look at me and got a nurse. Tests were scheduled and 2 days later it was discovered I was in heart failure . Emergency surgery discovered an electrical issue and I now have an ICD. Always trust your gut! Happy Stitching!

      Hello, Erica, so good to see you. I am so glad that you fought for the right medical hands. The outcome could have been much different. Listening to patients is so important and no one gets hurt to just check things out, right? I will keep you in my heart and thoughts. Thank you for watching and your continued prayers for Eva. Happy stitching.

OK, I’m moving into the 21st century - I now have a new iPad so that I can participate in Zoom calls LOL. I also made sure to buy an iPad stand.
