What a nice surprise to have Carol joining you today. Three excellent stitchers, three positive people and three ladies with good senses of humor. Three thumbs up 👍👍👍. Thanks for the laughs and the inspiration to stitch something Blackbird. I guess I should thank Zoom too. Love all three of you❣️❣️❣️
I am having palpitations, hernia and heart attack - this is total joy! Thank you for making a Sunday so much fun. I feel like I asked Santa for a bike and got a bike, doll house and View Master. This is so wonderful. You are blessings to the stitching community.
What a fabulous 2 part video of the 3 Musketeers of our stitchy world! It was a perfect collaboration! I love seeing people excited about stitching and of course Blackbird Designs! P. S. Laura, I'm buying my 2nd sampler and kitting up my 1st, Lucy Calcutt! I'm slowly getting to that 1st stitch on samplers!
That is so exciting Kristi! You picked a very beautiful first sampler to stitch!!!! Keep us posted! You might want to have a big one (Lucy) and a smaller one going so that you can feel like you are making progress. Hugs!
Blackbird should feel honored to have you ladies stitching their patterns I sure feel lucky to watch you 3 you sure cheered me up after a long shift like a welcome home here is your tea
What a FUN video!! Love Blackbird and love seeing all your favorites. I started stitching and collecting Loose Feathers in the early 2000’s and there are so many oldies and goodies that I have kitted and still haven’t stitched. Sometimes looking at the patterns and dreaming of stitching is just as fun!!
You are so right Rachel!!!!! Just looking through a stack of BBD charts is very therapeutic!!! Sometimes I dream about going back in time and purchasing all the early BBD! Thanks for watching and commenting!
What a special video today with the three of you. My heart is going pitty pat with all the lovely things you had to show today. Reminded me of all the BBD that I need to get going on. Just so many lovely and beautiful designs. I agree, we need a show with Barb and Alma. So excited to finally get my unicorn designs this past week as a result of the new printing for Spring, Summer and Winter. When I first heard Brenda say BUY ALL THE BBD, my thought was yes, as you will be sorry if you don't and I have been so upset with myself over the years not buying those three pieces. So, like you all, buying all the BBD rather I stitch or not. Thanks again ladies. It is so special to have friendship bonds with our stitchy friends. I have never experienced that anywhere except in the needlework world. As my husband's job always transferred us around the U.S. almost every three years, I knew I could find new friends just searching out needlework or quilting groups. Aren't we a lucky bunch. Have a great week of stitching. Our State is opening a little and I see Hobby Lobby will open on Monday. I am a happy girl as I am running out of foam core and matt board. Hugs, Norma in Boise, ID
Thank you Norma!!!! I agree with you about it being easy to make friends with needlework people!!! They are the best. Hope you got out and got more supplies today!!!! Be safe and happy stitching!!!! Thank you for your kind words!
@@brendaandtheserialstarter2410 I just put in another order with 123 Stitch. I am sure they know their way to my door by now! You take care and get lots of stitching done so you can do more show and tell. Hugs to you both.
The 3 amigos!!! I loved it!! You guys had me lmao 🤣 a few times!! Great to see all the lovely Blackbird designs.. True classics!!!! Until next time, I’m headed to the Teeter Harris!! 🤣 🤣
Absolutely 💯 loved!!!! Of course, I am a huge Blackbird Designs fan thanks to you two ( Brenda and Laura), so when I saw Carol and you said 10 Blackbirds a piece my heart palpitated like Laura's when she sees charts that she needs to have! Thank you so much for taking the time to do film this I thoroughly enjoyed it! And now I need to go stimulate the economy some more😂 #buyalltheblackbirds
I loved this video! I am waiting for linen for Jane Baxter! Otherwise she is kitted! I love all of your Blackbird projects waiting to be stitched! Keep stitching all the things!
I love all 3 of you! Pure joy. Glad to see other stitchers gushing and fan girling over each other. I cannot think of any group of ladies that I’d like to be friends with as much as you ladies! Thanks for sharing your enthusiasm with all of us❤️
My 3 favorite floss tubers! Thank you ladies I so enjoyed watching your Blackbird patterns. Wish I could get my hands on some of those patterns. I have a lot of their quilt books which are equally beautiful. You ladies are the best.😘
THE DREAM TEAM!!!!!! Not only was I HEPPED UP but I was GEEKED OUT too🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Laura I live in a town not far from Holland MI, I live in Allegan. Thanks for making this happen, what fun to see the three of you together. Hoping you will do this again someday. Hugs to all of you🤗🥰
Thanks so much!!!!! I love geeking out!!!! Is Allegan in Ottawa County?? I was the first baby born in Ottawa County in 1962.....my claim to fame! Hugs to you!!!
Brenda and the Serial Starter Allegan is in Allegan county, it’s right under Ottawa county. I was born the year after you. Same year as Brenda I believe.
What a joy to see three of my favorites “floss tubers” together! Thank you for such a enjoyable display of charts. I just moved from the U.K. to Germany and today have had a wonderful afternoon catching on your videos as well as the Saltbox Stitcher. Thank you for giving us such joy during these isolation times...keep safe and look forward to many more hours with the three of you!
You all made my week! Since there were two parts I spread them out to enjoy longer! 😉 Love love all the Blackbird designs! My hope is that they continue to bring more back out so more of us can enjoy them! ❤️🙏🏻
Be still my pounding heart 💓 My three favorite sampler stitchers!!! Such a treat to spend time with you today. I think I’m going to save Carol’s Floss-tube for tomorrow as a treaty for after work, just like tucking away unopened happy mail to savor for one another time. Thanks for the laughs ladies🥰😉
Thanks Linda!! Yes, good idea about saving Carol's video. I should have done that but I could not help myself. One of our other friends, Heidi, Stitching One over Two just posted a new video so I can recommend that one too!
This video was fantastic!! Just love all three of you. You all bring such joy to our lives and I so appreciate it. It was heavenly to see all of the BBD that you shared; they are a class act. I have been to several of their retreats and we used to have them often at our LNS camp put on by Heart's Desire; such wonderful memories. Hugs and happy stitching to all of you.......................
Maybe Blackbird Designs will print a book with their American flags and flowers.....please! Now we will all be trying to find the old books! You three are so great to watch. You cheer up my day!!!
Oh!! What a nice treat to have my three besties all together in one place🤣....it was a real treat to see all of the beautiful BBD...they really are my all time favorite! I’ve been working through the sewing club book ...enjoying each piece....just lovely....thanks for sharing ladies! 😘
Thanks Terri!!!!! Just wish we were all in the same town and we could get together and stitch at the drop of a hat!!!! Glad you are working through the sewing club book!!!!! It is so amazing!
Three of my favorite flosstubers together in one video So much fun! And I have a list a mile long of patterns I need to buy now. Thanks for giving me something fun to watch on a Sunday afternoon!
What a wonderful way to spend part of my day! Y'all are so great to watch and listen to! And Harris Teeter is a fantastic grocery --- one of my favorite places to shop when I can get over to St. Simon's to go shopping for groceries. Wonderful video!
Wow! Loved it! iI can’t even imagine the amount of stuff the three of you have total of Blackbird! The patterns, the finishes would be worth so much Amazing! Just amazing.
Ladies, these videos are so much fun! All of you are so inspiring and lovely. Thank you for making our quarantine stitching time so much better! ♥️ ♥️ ♥️
That was a special treat. A video from my three fave flosstubers. Ah!!!including Nicole of course. Making social distancing much enjoyable. Take care lovely ladies 😘😘🌿🌻💚
So I think it was Brenda who said something about "if we're still in lockdown in 10 years" . . . and I said out loud (while stitching away), "Oh my God, if we're still in lockdown in 10 years, I'm going to shoot myself!" (Here in New Jersey, we've been quarantined since March!!) And my husband looks up and says, "But you'll be able to complete your WIPs schedule and maybe we can then get into the spare bedroom." Funny, funny man. Great to see all 3 of you together! Keeping me happy and stitching.
Your husband is hilarious!!!! and probably so right!!!! I could probably walk into my stitching room and turn around on an empty floor if we were in lockdown for ten more years...... Hope we are all back to "normal" ASAP. Thanks for watching and commenting Laurie!
What a great lineup of stitching friends and all the goodness!!! I had to pause frequently to check my stash and now I have 4 new patterns in my cart - thanks ladies for enabling me!!! ❤️
Well these were two very fun videos! I’m sorry we will miss seeing you all in Spring Green! Your whips were amazing, and Brenda I LOVE your smalls! Happy Stitching ladies,
That was so fantastic! I can't even tell you how many times I had to pause so I could check to see if I had a chart that one of you were sharing. I absolutely loved it all and was thrilled when I could say, I already stitched that! 😁 Thank you, thank you, thank you, for such a wonderful treat today...I loved it. The 3 of you are just the best! Take care and happy stitching!
Thanks so much Frankie!!!! When you have already stitched a chart that is shown or even if you just have the chart in your stash...isn't that the best????
Thank you, Ladies, two is good but three is even better. I love Carol and watch all of her videos and today I had a double dose of her wich was awesome🤩 . And of course, you are great friends as you are so special😁 . Today I've learned that we have kit everything up, hahaha. Tks for sharing all those good stuff with us. Stay safe, take care, and happy stitches🥰 . Xoxo. Miriam
Over the top wonderfulness!! The three of you and so much Blackbird, both old and new! Simply over the moon inspiration! Hope you all get together again for a visit!
Oh glorious day! Thank you to all three of you! What a delight to see your BBD picks. I think there should be a getaway at Carol’s house and a hired person could film the three of you for all of us to enjoy later! Continue to take good care ladies 😘❤️ Rebecca
If I could add 20 thumbs up to this, I would! I loved every minute of your video! Blackbird is probably my favorite cross stitch designer and that made it all the more a real treat. :-)
Yup Hernia and Heartattack!!!!! Fun fun fun!!!!! Thank you guys for another wonderful video, I can forget everything and have lots of laughs and oooohs and ahhhhhs!!!!
I’m Vickie and I live in Dripping Springs, Texas 😂. It takes me forever to finish your videos because every time you show a chart I have to pause it, jump up (which ain’t easy) and see if I have the chart. So during your shenanigans, I kitted one (Summer Jubilee which I started once before and it was pathetic) and saw several more that need to be brought to the front burner. Enjoyed the video so much...feels so good to laugh and I even talked to y’all! ❤️
So, in the Brenda and Laura cop/detective show, Carol is *definitely* a double agent. Her comments on her channel about the "cross stitch police" are partly to reassure Brenda that "the law" doesn't bother her and partly to tease Laura about her undercover status. Y'all are delightful and you always make my week. I look forward to these videos more than I can express. Thank you. And finally, in all your spare time (haha!), might I recommend a new flosstuber? Her channel name is scienceknitster and she has just uploaded her second video. She's well worth a watch. Hope you are having a fantastic week!
I stitched summers jubilee from the magazine years and years ago. My first time using fancy floss😊 It’s still hanging up and I love it! Thanks for the videos Emily
OMG... I’d pay money for that😆🤣😂😂 BB Design start a Flosstube, please...love you guys! Thanks for having Carol on as well... so enjoy her videos as well. So happy to spend my Sunday’s with you. BTW, if you’re driving down to see Carol I’ll join you, I’m not that far from you both 😁Happy stitching till next time
Thanks Cindy!!!!! Yes, if we go to Florida we will let you know! I cannot even imagine the excitement of a BBD floss tube from Barb and Alma. It would certainly break the internet!!!
Brenda and the Serial Starter I’ll keep my bags packed for that🤣😂 yes, hopefully Barb and Alma might watch your Flosstube and think “ We can DO it too” ha ha... besides ALL the other things they DO! Hope you’re enjoying this sun we’re having. I’ve been working in the yard after I cross stitch, have to get out when we can, cuz of the crazy weather here. 😆enjoy your week and see ya on Sunday!
This was so much fun to watch! Thanks for having my favorite stitcher (besides you two, of course!) join you. I'll be watching it again this afternoon while I'm stitching :) Blessings to all. Hope you do this again.
What a great video!!! Awesome visitor and hello, all the BlackbirdDesigns. I didn’t even get ant stitching done for I was writing all the names of charts down. You have given me and everyone such great joy! Thank you
What a wonderful three-time! Thank you so much for this inspiring video. And Brenda, thank you for the information about Total Framing. My Sally Spencer is on it's way as I type. I can't wait to show it off on my flosstube channel! Love all three of you for all you do for our community!!!🥰
Oh my goodness, what a treat today to see all of you!! I had to put my stitching down so I could enjoy it all.....my cheeks hurt from smiling the whole time!!! Once again, you’ve made my day 😃😃😄
Thank you for the video! I really enjoyed the show...great watching good friends sharing their hobby. I have two friends that I stitch with, and I am really missing our time together too. Hopefully this will be over soon...we have at least two more weeks of quarantine...boo! Anyway, happy stitching
Holy Hannah!! Talk about a heart attack and a hernia! I want to watch it again. The triplets were great. Please do another one again soon. One can never have too much Blackbird.
The perfect Flosstube, the two of you, and a guest appearance by Carol, Saltbox Stitcher! Swoon! And then a Fantasy Blackbird Maynia? I'm going to have to watch these again :)
I really think Brenda has a "koo-koo" button because it always "koo-koo's" when Laura is speaking!!! Lol... y'all have to invite Carol again. This was so great!!
Thanks Cindy!!! I am going to really have to watch for that cuckoo clock and see what Brenda is up to when it goes off next time!!!! Although once I remember it went off when Brenda was confessing that she bought the same chart twice!!! That cuckoo knows what it is doing!
This was totally amazing. All three of you have the most wonderful collection of Blackbird Designs and most of them I have never seen as I am just getting back into cross stitching, but I am following your orders to get ALL the Blackbird. Please do this again as I am sure you all have more to show.
It was great watching you three. Sweet land of liberty book has the 2 fabrics together. I remember meeting you Carol at the second midwest retreat. You and your sister were so nice. I love eagles stitching and other wise. I hate squirrels and wont stitch them. I had the bbd America the Beautiful had it about half done many years ago. I made a couple of mistakes but could fix it so I threw it away. And gave the pattern away.
Darleen.....you know what? I love a person who has definite opinions about things! Love it!!! You are a wonder. We need to meet someday!!! I vow I shall make a trek to Acorns and Threads!!!! Hugs and happy stitching!!! love, laura
That was so fun to watch! I loved having Carol in it with you. Not only are you an inspiration you are down right fun and hilarious ! I was smiling and laughing out loud with the three of you! Thank you for taking the time to share with us!
Great video once again. I look forward to Sunday to see what the two of you are up to. You never disappoint. What a treat to have Carol as a guest. You had me laughing the whole time. Stay safe, Ladies. 😊
This was SO FUN!!! I think Carol should pop over more often. :) I enjoyed the BBD Parade. BUY ALL the Blackbird! I wish I knew that rule sooner in life! :)
This was so much fun to watch! In between watching you three and doing laundry I was stitching on a blackbird mini stocking as part of Maynia! Thank you for taking time out from your weekend stitching to do this video. Loved seeing your stash--and the handfuls of threads from unkitted stash about gave me a hernia!!🤣🤣🤣
I know!! Those fistfulls of thread were just too much!!! What fun!!! Glad you got some stitching done while the laundry was going!!! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Oh happy day. So glad to see a new video and then to see Carol too. I giggled out loud. Almost woke up my husband who was napping on the couch. And since we were supposed to be outside weeding😫....believe me.....waking him up was the last thing I wanted to do right then😂😂😂. It's ok. It was just a close call. He slept thru both. YIPPEE!!!! I enjoyed it ladies. Love you!!
Thank goodness you got to watch uninterrupted by weeding. That is one of my most hated tasks and I don't think I have done it since I was about 12 years old. Ugh! I hope that you are doing okay. Still thinking about you in this time of loss of your mom. Sending hugs and love! I know our stitching will get us through right!?
Okay. My heart is in perfect shape but tomorrow I think I will need to be Lifeflighted from my remote location in the mountains to a bigger community and have an EKG done..... I do have 60% of these Blackbird charts. Good thing or I might need permanent oxygen also! Love you gals
That is hilarious Shanda!!! I know how you feel when you see these stitching projects that about send you over the edge because they are so wonderful!!!!! Heart palpitations!!!!!! Sending love right back to you!
i felt like you guys were right here with me! I laughed with you (not at you) and I laughed some more. What a wonderful time just sitting in my chair with no haircut, no make up, no shaved legs. Wow for fun.
Thank you Rhonda!!!!!!!! We definitely did not have haircuts, make up or shaved legs!!!! Well, I had a little foundation and lipstick but nothing major. Otherwise, it would be too scary!
Thank you Shawn!! Hope you can find as many as possible.....first up...get the new release The Sewing Club book. That will keep you happy for a long time!
Wow, you three together was just so perfect for this Sunday afternoon. I was starting a Blackbird design from the Sewing Club so nice to see more charts by them. You are all so inspiring and enablers. Love the story of how you met each other. Thank you

What a nice surprise to have Carol joining you today. Three excellent stitchers, three positive people and three ladies with good senses of humor. Three thumbs up 👍👍👍. Thanks for the laughs and the inspiration to stitch something Blackbird. I guess I should thank Zoom too. Love all three of you❣️❣️❣️
Thank you Bonnie!!! Did you get out some BBD this week??? Hope so!!!
I am having palpitations, hernia and heart attack - this is total joy! Thank you for making a Sunday so much fun. I feel like I asked Santa for a bike and got a bike, doll house and View Master. This is so wonderful. You are blessings to the stitching community.
When you get a View Master you know life is good!!!! Thanks so much for your kind comments Rose Ann!
What a fabulous 2 part video of the 3 Musketeers of our stitchy world! It was a perfect collaboration! I love seeing people excited about stitching and of course Blackbird Designs! P. S. Laura, I'm buying my 2nd sampler and kitting up my 1st, Lucy Calcutt! I'm slowly getting to that 1st stitch on samplers!
That is so exciting Kristi! You picked a very beautiful first sampler to stitch!!!! Keep us posted! You might want to have a big one (Lucy) and a smaller one going so that you can feel like you are making progress. Hugs!
As if Brenda and Lara weren’t fabulous enough, add Carol for an over the top wonderful visit! Thank you ladies, my Sunday is made. 💕💕
Thank you for watching!!!
Blackbird should feel honored to have you ladies stitching their patterns I sure feel lucky to watch you 3 you sure cheered me up after a long shift like a welcome home here is your tea
Thanks Mindy!!!! That is sweet of you to say and glad we were there after a long shift!!!
My 3 favorite flosstubers in one place! A great start to my weekend.
What a FUN video!! Love Blackbird and love seeing all your favorites. I started stitching and collecting Loose Feathers in the early 2000’s and there are so many oldies and goodies that I have kitted and still haven’t stitched. Sometimes looking at the patterns and dreaming of stitching is just as fun!!
You are so right Rachel!!!!! Just looking through a stack of BBD charts is very therapeutic!!! Sometimes I dream about going back in time and purchasing all the early BBD! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Oh my! Thank you for these two videos. I had to watch them once, lie down to recuperate and then watch them again and order all the things🥰
Thank you Jenny!!! I am glad that you enjoyed them so much that you needed a lie down!!!! I wonder what you ordered??? Love you!
This was such a nice treat for Sunday afternoon...thanks so much to three favorite sampler ladies...awesome video you three❤️❤️❤️
Thank you very much Loretta!!!
What a special video today with the three of you. My heart is going pitty pat with all the lovely things you had to show today. Reminded me of all the BBD that I need to get going on. Just so many lovely and beautiful designs. I agree, we need a show with Barb and Alma. So excited to finally get my unicorn designs this past week as a result of the new printing for Spring, Summer and Winter. When I first heard Brenda say BUY ALL THE BBD, my thought was yes, as you will be sorry if you don't and I have been so upset with myself over the years not buying those three pieces. So, like you all, buying all the BBD rather I stitch or not. Thanks again ladies. It is so special to have friendship bonds with our stitchy friends. I have never experienced that anywhere except in the needlework world. As my husband's job always transferred us around the U.S. almost every three years, I knew I could find new friends just searching out needlework or quilting groups. Aren't we a lucky bunch.

Thank you Norma!!!! I agree with you about it being easy to make friends with needlework people!!! They are the best. Hope you got out and got more supplies today!!!! Be safe and happy stitching!!!! Thank you for your kind words!
@@brendaandtheserialstarter2410 I just put in another order with 123 Stitch. I am sure they know their way to my door by now! You take care and get lots of stitching done so you can do more show and tell. Hugs to you both.
The 3 amigos!!! I loved it!! You guys had me lmao 🤣 a few times!! Great to see all the lovely Blackbird designs.. True classics!!!! Until next time, I’m headed to the Teeter Harris!! 🤣 🤣
Faye Riggsbee The Three Amigos- I love it
Thank you Faye!!! You are going to Harris Teeter!!! Oh you lucky girl!!!!! Have fun!!! Stop at Wawa too!!!! Hugs!
Absolutely 💯 loved!!!! Of course, I am a huge Blackbird Designs fan thanks to you two ( Brenda and Laura), so when I saw Carol and you said 10 Blackbirds a piece my heart palpitated like Laura's when she sees charts that she needs to have! Thank you so much for taking the time to do film this I thoroughly enjoyed it! And now I need to go stimulate the economy some more😂 #buyalltheblackbirds
Thank you Diana!!!!!! I hope that you were able to find lots of new BBD charts out there in the wild!!!!!
What a treat to see all of you in one video . Thanks for sharing all the wonderful Blackbird designs.
Thank you for watching Linda!!!
I loved this video! I am waiting for linen for Jane Baxter! Otherwise she is kitted! I love all of your Blackbird projects waiting to be stitched! Keep stitching all the things!
I hope your linen comes ASAP Vicki!!!!!! Jane Baxter is such a wonderful sampler. Thanks for watching and commenting!

Thank you for your kind words Laurie!!! I hope that all of us can be at a retreat somewhere someday!!!! Hugs!
My 3 favorite floss tubers! Thank you ladies I so enjoyed watching your Blackbird patterns. Wish I could get my hands on some of those patterns. I have a lot of their quilt books which are equally beautiful. You ladies are the best.😘

Maybe Blackbird Designs will print a book with their American flags and flowers.....please! Now we will all be trying to find the old books! You three are so great to watch. You cheer up my day!!!
Tina Whittingslow Great idea! I did not realize BBD had so many American Flags and Flowers😊
What a fun video! It was great hearing y'all chatting away about Blackbird designs and showing all the wonderful designs. Thanks for the inspiration!
Oh!! What a nice treat to have my three besties all together in one place🤣....it was a real treat to see all of the beautiful BBD...they really are my all time favorite! I’ve been working through the sewing club book ...enjoying each piece....just lovely....thanks for sharing ladies! 😘

What a wonderful way to spend part of my day! Y'all are so great to watch and listen to! And Harris Teeter is a fantastic grocery --- one of my favorite places to shop when I can get over to St. Simon's to go shopping for groceries. Wonderful video!
Thanks Barbara!!! Yes, I liked going through Harris Teeter too!!!! Very nice store. Thank you for your kind words.
What a wonderful day I have had watching you three. Thank you, thank you for doing flosstube. You are awesome ladies.
Thank you for your kind words Shelia!!!

We are pretty lucky that we have so much........but I am putting BBD charts under the heading...Essential Household Items!!!! Thanks Mary Jo!
Ladies, these videos are so much fun! All of you are so inspiring and lovely. Thank you for making our quarantine stitching time so much better! ♥️ ♥️ ♥️
Thank you for your kind words Caroline!!!
That was a special treat. A video from my three fave flosstubers. Ah!!!including Nicole of course. Making social distancing much enjoyable. Take care lovely ladies 😘😘🌿🌻💚
We love Nicole too!!!! Fabulous videos! Thanks Edina!!!! You take care too and happy stitching!
So I think it was Brenda who said something about "if we're still in lockdown in 10 years" . . . and I said out loud (while stitching away), "Oh my God, if we're still in lockdown in 10 years, I'm going to shoot myself!" (Here in New Jersey, we've been quarantined since March!!) And my husband looks up and says, "But you'll be able to complete your WIPs schedule and maybe we can then get into the spare bedroom." Funny, funny man. Great to see all 3 of you together! Keeping me happy and stitching.
Your husband is hilarious!!!! and probably so right!!!! I could probably walk into my stitching room and turn around on an empty floor if we were in lockdown for ten more years...... Hope we are all back to "normal" ASAP. Thanks for watching and commenting Laurie!
Brenda and the Serial Starter Thank you so much. Just what I was looking for.
What a great lineup of stitching friends and all the goodness!!! I had to pause frequently to check my stash and now I have 4 new patterns in my cart - thanks ladies for enabling me!!! ❤️
You are welcome!!!! But you know full well this enabling thing goes both ways Missy!
What great day for flosstube - all 3 of you together!! Off the hook awesomeness!!! Thanks ladies for putting it out there again!!
Thank you for watching and leaving such a nice comment Leslie!
Wonderful to here how you met and to see your stash. What a great group! ❤️❤️❤️
Well these were two very fun videos! I’m sorry we will miss seeing you all in Spring Green! Your whips were amazing, and Brenda I LOVE your smalls! Happy Stitching ladies,
We are so bummed about Spring Green!!!!! But we will return someday!!!!!! Thanks Carrie!
I so enjoyed seeing the 3 of you sweet ladies this afternoon!! So FUN! Thank you for keeping me company! Happy Stitching ~ Olivia
Thank you so much Olivia!!!! Hugs!
Thank you all so much for these videos. So enjoyed all your chatter and pulled out a blackbird stocking to work on while I watched.
Thank you Lynette!! Great choice to stitching on a BBD stocking while watching! Fun!
OMG
I got to watch my 3 favorite Ladies all at once!! Thank you for a Great Sunday!🥰
Thank you Tracy!!!!
That was so fantastic! I can't even tell you how many times I had to pause so I could check to see if I had a chart that one of you were sharing. I absolutely loved it all and was thrilled when I could say, I already stitched that! 😁 Thank you, thank you, thank you, for such a wonderful treat today...I loved it. The 3 of you are just the best! Take care and happy stitching!
Thanks so much Frankie!!!! When you have already stitched a chart that is shown or even if you just have the chart in your stash...isn't that the best????
Such great videos! I so enjoyed it, love those Blackbirds! Thanks to all three ladies
Thanks so much Patricia!
Oh what a treat my 3 favourite stitchers together!! Than you for making my Sunday 😍😍😍
Thank you Lynne!!!
You ladies are the best! Great to see Carol...what a treat!
Thank you so much Hanya!!!
You ladies far exceeded your own videos, welcome Carol, and loved all of the charts you showed. Thank you all so much for sharing
Thank you for watching and leaving such a nice comment Linda!
Thank you, Ladies, two is good but three is even better. I love Carol and watch all of her videos and today I had a double dose of her wich was awesome🤩 . And of course, you are great friends as you are so special😁 . Today I've learned that we have kit everything up, hahaha. Tks for sharing all those good stuff with us. Stay safe, take care, and happy stitches🥰 . Xoxo. Miriam
Thanks so much for watching and commenting Miriam!!!!!!! I just wish we could all stitch together in real life!!
Love all your videos, and what an absolute treat to have Carol there as well. You've cheered me up no end.
Thank you very much Anne!!! Glad we could spread a bit of cheer!
Over the top wonderfulness!! The three of you and so much Blackbird, both old and new! Simply over the moon inspiration! Hope you all get together again for a visit!
Thanks so much Chrie!!!!
Oh glorious day! Thank you to all three of you! What a delight to see your BBD picks. I think there should be a getaway at Carol’s house and a hired person could film the three of you for all of us to enjoy later! Continue to take good care ladies 😘❤️ Rebecca
Thanks Rebecca!!! Great idea! I think once this pandemic is over we need a stitching retreat every month somewhere in America!!!!!
If I could add 20 thumbs up to this, I would! I loved every minute of your video! Blackbird is probably my favorite cross stitch designer and that made it all the more a real treat. :-)
Thanks so much for your very kind words!!!
Yup Hernia and Heartattack!!!!! Fun fun fun!!!!! Thank you guys for another wonderful video, I can forget everything and have lots of laughs and oooohs and ahhhhhs!!!!
Thanks so much!! We all need some periods of time where we can think about something happy!!!!
Absolutely love the 3 of you ladies together. Such a heat set of videos to watch.
Thank you Kim!!!!
I woke up feeling very blah, and checked UA-cam and well went from blah to whoorah. Awesome awesomeness great 👍
Oh that is so good!!!!!!! Glad when the blahs go away!!!! Talking about stitching can always do that right? Thanks Joanne!
Brenda and the Serial Starter stitching always does that. ❤️❤️❤️❤️ take care
What a treat to have the three of you all together. Thank you!
Thank you for watching Kathy!!!
Love you gals. Brenda, Laura and Carol all together....I’m having a heart attack and a hernia, my three favorite flosstubers!!
Thanks Cathy!!! Glad you are having a good H&H!!!!
I’m Vickie and I live in Dripping Springs, Texas 😂. It takes me forever to finish your videos because every time you show a chart I have to pause it, jump up (which ain’t easy) and see if I have the chart. So during your shenanigans, I kitted one (Summer Jubilee which I started once before and it was pathetic) and saw several more that need to be brought to the front burner. Enjoyed the video so much...feels so good to laugh and I even talked to y’all! ❤️
That is so exciting Vickie!!!!!!!!!! I am glad when our shenanigans lead to stitching and kitting and general cross stitch enthusiasm!!!!!
I absolutely Love all Three of you! What a treat to have you all together......
Thank you so much Pat!!!
What a wonderful treat- my three favorite stitchers 🙂♥️
Awwww....that is so sweet of you to say! Thank you Maryann!!!
So, in the Brenda and Laura cop/detective show, Carol is *definitely* a double agent. Her comments on her channel about the "cross stitch police" are partly to reassure Brenda that "the law" doesn't bother her and partly to tease Laura about her undercover status.
Y'all are delightful and you always make my week. I look forward to these videos more than I can express. Thank you.
And finally, in all your spare time (haha!), might I recommend a new flosstuber? Her channel name is scienceknitster and she has just uploaded her second video. She's well worth a watch. Hope you are having a fantastic week!
I stitched summers jubilee from the magazine years and years ago. My first time using fancy floss😊
It’s still hanging up and I love it!
Thanks for the videos
Emily
Thanks Emily!!! I pulled mine out last night and enjoyed working on it! That is great that you still love yours. It is a classic piece!!!
OMG... I’d pay money for that😆🤣😂😂 BB Design start a Flosstube, please...love you guys! Thanks for having Carol on as well... so enjoy her videos as well. So happy to spend my Sunday’s with you. BTW, if you’re driving down to see Carol I’ll join you, I’m not that far from you both 😁Happy stitching till next time
Thanks Cindy!!!!! Yes, if we go to Florida we will let you know! I cannot even imagine the excitement of a BBD floss tube from Barb and Alma. It would certainly break the internet!!!
Brenda and the Serial Starter I’ll keep my bags packed for that🤣😂 yes, hopefully Barb and Alma might watch your Flosstube and think “ We can DO it too” ha ha... besides ALL the other things they DO! Hope you’re enjoying this sun we’re having. I’ve been working in the yard after I cross stitch, have to get out when we can, cuz of the crazy weather here. 😆enjoy your week and see ya on Sunday!
This was so much fun to watch! Thanks for having my favorite stitcher (besides you two, of course!) join you. I'll be watching it again this afternoon while I'm stitching :) Blessings to all. Hope you do this again.
Thank you very much Colleen!!!!!!!
What a great video!!! Awesome visitor and hello, all the BlackbirdDesigns. I didn’t even get ant stitching done for I was writing all the names of charts down. You have given me and everyone such great joy! Thank you
Thank you for your very kind words Renee!!!
I loved everything about this video! Having the three of you together was such fun! 😆
Thanks so much Tammi!!!
What a wonderful three-time! Thank you so much for this inspiring video. And Brenda, thank you for the information about Total Framing. My Sally Spencer is on it's way as I type. I can't wait to show it off on my flosstube channel! Love all three of you for all you do for our community!!!🥰
That is so exciting that you sent Sally Spencer to Total Framing!!! You will not be disappointed!!! What is the name of your floss tube channel?
@@brendaandtheserialstarter2410 My channel is the Calculated Stitcher (because I teach high school math).
Oh my goodness, what a treat today to see all of you!! I had to put my stitching down so I could enjoy it all.....my cheeks hurt from smiling the whole time!!! Once again, you’ve made my day 😃😃😄
Thank you for your kind words Johna!!!!
Thank you for the video! I really enjoyed the show...great watching good friends sharing their hobby. I have two friends that I stitch with, and I am really missing our time together too. Hopefully this will be over soon...we have at least two more weeks of quarantine...boo! Anyway, happy stitching
Thanks so much Diane!!! I hope that you can get together with your friends ASAP!!!!!
Love love these videos with Carol!! What a blast. I’m off to watch your next one ❤️❤️
Thanks for watching !!!!!
Wow! The three musketeers! Great Flosstube! Thanks for the Blackbird parade.
Thanks so much!
Holy Hannah!! Talk about a heart attack and a hernia! I want to watch it again. The triplets were great. Please do another one again soon. One can never have too much Blackbird.
Thank you so much Lisa!!!
The perfect Flosstube, the two of you, and a guest appearance by Carol, Saltbox Stitcher!
Swoon!
And then a Fantasy Blackbird Maynia?
I'm going to have to watch these again :)
Thanks so much Angela!!!!!! Hope you found some stuff you had in your stash and want to stitch!
I really think Brenda has a "koo-koo" button because it always "koo-koo's" when Laura is speaking!!! Lol... y'all have to invite Carol again. This was so great!!
Thanks Cindy!!! I am going to really have to watch for that cuckoo clock and see what Brenda is up to when it goes off next time!!!! Although once I remember it went off when Brenda was confessing that she bought the same chart twice!!! That cuckoo knows what it is doing!
This was totally amazing. All three of you have the most wonderful collection of Blackbird Designs and most of them I have never seen as I am just getting back into cross stitching, but I am following your orders to get ALL the Blackbird. Please do this again as I am sure you all have more to show.
Thanks so much Bonita!!!! So glad you are getting back into stitching!!!!! Yes, get all the BBD!!!
It was great watching you three. Sweet land of liberty book has the 2 fabrics together. I remember meeting you Carol at the second midwest retreat. You and your sister were so nice. I love eagles stitching and other wise. I hate squirrels and wont stitch them. I had the bbd America the Beautiful had it about half done many years ago. I made a couple of mistakes but could fix it so I threw it away. And gave the pattern away.
Darleen.....you know what? I love a person who has definite opinions about things! Love it!!! You are a wonder. We need to meet someday!!! I vow I shall make a trek to Acorns and Threads!!!! Hugs and happy stitching!!! love, laura
@@brendaandtheserialstarter2410 yes some day we will meet.
That was the most FUN, AMAZING show EVER!!! Thank You ladies!
Thank you so much for watching and commenting!!! Very kind of you!
That was so fun to watch! I loved having Carol in it with you. Not only are you an inspiration you are down right fun and hilarious ! I was smiling and laughing out loud with the three of you! Thank you for taking the time to share with us!
Thanks so much Ginger!!!!!!!!! Hugs!
Great video once again. I look forward to Sunday to see what the two of you are up to. You never disappoint. What a treat to have Carol as a guest. You had me laughing the whole time. Stay safe, Ladies. 😊
Thank you for your very kind words Bunny!!!
This was SO FUN!!! I think Carol should pop over more often. :) I enjoyed the BBD Parade. BUY ALL the Blackbird! I wish I knew that rule sooner in life! :)
I wish I adhered to that rule sooner too!!!! At least now we know! Thanks for watching!
This was so much fun to watch! In between watching you three and doing laundry I was stitching on a blackbird mini stocking as part of Maynia! Thank you for taking time out from your weekend stitching to do this video. Loved seeing your stash--and the handfuls of threads from unkitted stash about gave me a hernia!!🤣🤣🤣
I know!! Those fistfulls of thread were just too much!!! What fun!!! Glad you got some stitching done while the laundry was going!!! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Oh happy day. So glad to see a new video and then to see Carol too. I giggled out loud. Almost woke up my husband who was napping on the couch. And since we were supposed to be outside weeding😫....believe me.....waking him up was the last thing I wanted to do right then😂😂😂. It's ok. It was just a close call. He slept thru both. YIPPEE!!!! I enjoyed it ladies. Love you!!
Thank goodness you got to watch uninterrupted by weeding. That is one of my most hated tasks and I don't think I have done it since I was about 12 years old. Ugh! I hope that you are doing okay. Still thinking about you in this time of loss of your mom. Sending hugs and love! I know our stitching will get us through right!?
You 3 are horrible enablers!!! I just "shoomed" on 3 charts / books on Ebay.............. keep up the good work ladies!
Okay. My heart is in perfect shape but tomorrow I think I will need to be Lifeflighted from my remote location in the mountains to a bigger community and have an EKG done..... I do have 60% of these Blackbird charts. Good thing or I might need permanent oxygen also! Love you gals
That is hilarious Shanda!!! I know how you feel when you see these stitching projects that about send you over the edge because they are so wonderful!!!!! Heart palpitations!!!!!! Sending love right back to you!
Loved the two videos You must do it again. Beautiful stitching. loved seeing all the charts. Happy stitching. .
Thanks so much Ruth!!!!
You three lovely ladies need to do another flosstube together please!! I’m going to have to rewatch this one a few times that’s for sure😊😊
Thank you so much!!!!! I know we will do another one together someday!
So much fun to see three of my favorite people all together on one floss-tube!
Thank you so much Cindy!!!
i felt like you guys were right here with me! I laughed with you (not at you) and I laughed some more. What a wonderful time just sitting in my chair with no haircut, no make up, no shaved legs. Wow for fun.
Thank you Rhonda!!!!!!!! We definitely did not have haircuts, make up or shaved legs!!!! Well, I had a little foundation and lipstick but nothing major. Otherwise, it would be too scary!
So wonderful! I want to be the 4TH MUSKETEER! Sally in Northern California (near Michelle in Sacramento, CA) 😁😷
You are in Sally!!!!! How near Sacramento are you???? Thanks for watching!
Thank you ladies for your wonder video! It was great to see Carol!
Thank you Linda!
