I have found my people. I’ve never laughed so much watching flosstube. Y’all are hysterical. I appreciate the levity you bring to the seriousness of stitching so many dang birds 😂
You two are a hoot together. I giggle like I’m part of the silliness at times. Also, I enjoy seeing the support you have for each other in so many little ways. What a beautiful relationship y’all have created together. The question/stitch-with-me format is nice. Please do it again.
I love you both! My sister doesn’t stitch at all and I called her the other day just to tell her she had to watch you! I laugh so hard I cry. I discovered you because of Midsummer Stitch! Thank you so much Steph of Lindy Stitches! I have now watched all of your FlossTubes multiple times… we need more stitch together episodes!
Thank you 🙏🏻 so very much for the joy and kindness you bring!
I don't usually watch stitch alongs, but this one was definitely a great one! It's so fun to listen to you guys talk about everything and anything. Have some great stitchy times until the next time we get to see you!
Recently discovered the joy of stitch alongs. You popped up yesterday and I can’t wait for your next stitch with us.
So much fun to stitch along with you today. I loved the answers to questions and the side tracking was even better. I hope you do more of these when you get the chance.
Hi girlies! I love this concept. Please do it again sometime. It is perfect for “stitch-along”, listening to you answering questions and going off on tangents. ❤
So happy I subscribed! I love birds and am so excited to see so many bird patterns thru your videos. Enjoyable stitchy time.
I'm a kiwi but I moved across the ditch to Sydney. Spiders were my biggest fear too, but in the last 5 years I've had only one huntsman in the house. It was like 9:30 at night and i made a friend come over to get it out. Couldn't open the cupboard without nightmares for weeks. In reality you probably won't see any, just make sure you look up for any drop bears
This was fantastic! Thank you Amity & Erinn! We’re having a bizarre rainy day in NorCal and I’m happily stitching along with you. Really enjoyed the question format and learn more about you both. I’m going to ask Anna if she want to try a Stitch With Me episode. Happy Crafting! -Carolyn
I just saw on Instagram that you were going to film a stitch with us! So excited to watch! ♥️
You guys have me cracking up! You guys name your turkeys and me and my husband name our squirrels lol. Keep the videos coming.
So fun. For a while your comments took me back to the Saturday night live sketch of Schweddy ball and the way the two women said good times! 😊
Ha! Love that sketch! 😂
It was fun to listen to you 2 just stitching and chatting.
Thank you so much! We appreciate you watching!
Love your floss tubes! I don’t have any friends that cross stitch so it’s nice that some of the floss tubers do this Always look forward to your floss tubes
Erinn! I love Sullivan's ball-tipped needles too. I literally gasped when you said that you use them, as I don't know anyone else who does. I love them. I look forward to meeting you gals at Stitch-Con weekend 'A' in just a few weeks.
Yes! They're so good! I don't think I'd be able to go back to regular needles. We're excited to meet you too! It's wild that it's so soon - just 34 more days!
Thoroughly enjoyed this video, enjoyed stitching along with you while stitching myself. Just started Bird Nerd for my daughter who also loves birds. Thank you so much for the free pattern.
This was so much fun! Thanks for sharing your stitchy time with us. Now to check out all your links…I feel some shopping coming up😉
Enjoyed stitching with you girls today. You had me cracking up at "side salad." 🤣😂 I actually got a good start on a new chart so I am very happy about that. I just picked up the first bag in my basket and it ended up being a fall chart. Lol I guess it doesn't matter as I was stitching Christmas before that. Thanks for being my stitching buddies today. ❤
Really loved watching and stitching with you two! ❤❤
Thanks for stitching with us! ♥️
So fun stitching with you this evening!
I went to Sydney for two weeks in 2010, and I didn’t see a single spider. I granted, I intentionally did not look at the places around the house we were staying in that normally would have spiders, because I wanted to be able to sleep without seeing them when I close my eyes. 😂 by in large, I think city spiders in Sydney will stay out of your way. The birds are crazy, though. I never got attacked, but there were a couple of times I walked *very* quickly because the vibes were bad.
Hello from a fellow Northern Kentuckian and Keepsakes lover! So glad I found you ladies love your videos and that I can totally relate to your stories. The woodpecker action in KY is real, spring mating season sends them our way for sure. Hope to run into you ladies at Keepsakes or meet up for some stitchy time!
Hi! My name truly has history! I was named after a movie that starred Marlon Brando and Jean Simmons and came out the year I was born! She was an actual historical figure who was Napoleon's fiancee before he married Josephine. Loved stitching with you!
I have 5 sisters and I am the only one who stitches. Would sure be great if even of of them did! 😆I have tried to teach them all and they say oh you can just stitch it for us lol! 😂 I loved the side salad addition!!
This was super fun and relaxing. Would love more of these types of videos 🤗
We are so glad you enjoyed it! 🥰 We have more planned! Happy Stitching! 🪡
Super excited to hear you girls will be at Weekend A for stitch-con. I will see/meet you there. Super excited 33 days yo go.
How exciting! We can't wait to meet you! 🥰
You two are so amusing! I would stitch with you every day. You are so lucky and blessed to have each other to share your love of cross stitch.
I'm an Aussie (in Melbourne) and I just had to weigh in about the spiders in Australia. Please don't let this stop you Amity! Sydney is great (but I'm honour bound to say that Melbourne is better 😁) I doubt you will see any spiders if you come here for a holiday. They're really only a problem in old houses etc. Sydney is easy to get to, easy to get around, and you just have to come!
I loved this video! I can stitch along and listen to the chat. You both are so kind and thoughtful. Also…print 3…I have been looking at getting a cross stitch journal. 😂 Both of your projects are coming along so great!
So much fun!😃 Stitching along with you. Please show your other stitching stands.
I love that you've got your roller derby names sorted out! 😂
Too bad we were both so terrible at skating! 😂
Love watching you. Totally enjoyed the stitch with you with questions. 😊
Thank you so much! It was fun to film. Happy stitching! 🥰
Great video ladies, love your memories of Christmas shopping and waiting for Dad!!! Hope you do another stitch with me video 😊
First time watching, you gals are just great!
Love the Q&A segment!
Take care
I love grackles too. I just finished stitching Blackbirds by All Through the Night. I really enjoyed this video.
You two are great! I love it when you laugh. Erinn, we are doing a SAL for the Shannon Christine piece for my girlfriend’s birthday in July which will also double as Christmas in July. Don’t be intimidated by the beading. It’s really no different than doing a Mill Hill kit especially if you are using your stand and can do it two handed.
Thank you so much! And thank you for letting me know about the SAL - I'm excited to join! Hearing that it's similar to beading on a Mill Hill kit makes me feel better about it. Once I got the hang of those I really enjoyed them!
Such a great video. Love this format. Erinn in addition to us stitching In Memory of Mom, we are also going to do winter snowfall. There will be 4 of us starting this in July for my birthday SAL. I’m looking forward to starting it. Feel free to join us. You and Amity have such a great sister relationship. My sister and I are like that. It is so awesome having a bestie who is also your sister. Thank you both for your videos.
Thank you so much! I would love to join and stitch Winter Snowfall! Maybe it will be less intimidating in a group. 😅 I couldn't agree more - it's been so nice to be able to share this hobby with Amity. Happy stitching!
This was a lot of fun. I can’t wait for the remainder of the questions. Since this was recorded mid-month you may already be aware, but Mudpuppy
Stitchery has some interesting bird charts she has designed on Etsy. Her last video she mentioned she downloaded Amity’s bird nerd chart. Still laughing about Side Salad. We had a white squirrel earlier this year who took up residence in our backyard. Being very creative, I named her Whitey. Two more appeared that were a bit less white so they were Whitey 2.0 and Whitey 2.5. I’ve always done a better job naming our pets!😂
Great Video! I was happy to see you 2 again!!!
Thanks for spending some time with us! 🥰
you two could have totally grown up on my street, my gang of girls did every kind of craft, hobby and went down every historical rabbit hole, One summer my friend ,Laura, and I recreated the internal burial chamber of Tutankhamun tomb. We of course learned to read hieroglyphics for this endeavor (which later allowed us to be docents in a museum writing kid's name cartouches). Let me just say we hand painted every surface in her bedroom which took an entire summer. The next summer we wanted to be geishas so we learned to sew and embroider to make elaborate kimonos, took lessons in classical instruments, flower arranging and dance of the geisha and learned to preform the classical tea ceremony that we did every time we were together for years. We also became accomplished paper Quillers - let me just say Laura's mother found all these classes and people to learn from and she was a really cool person in her own right.
I live in Canberra, Australia and yes from time to time we do get a large spider in the house but they are super chill and easy to catch and release although that is a Hubby job. We do live close to bushland. The Opera house is far away from any bushland so you will be safe. It is an amazing building.
Super chill and easy to catch. 😅 Glad it is far away from bushland - that makes me feel better!
I enjoyed this a lot. Thanks.
Thanks for hanging out with us! 🥰
So much fun. I can totally relate to the loud woodpecker. We live in the country as well and have a wood stove with the metal pipe. We were woken up by this loud echoing tap tap tap over our heads. It was pretty freaky. Turns out a woodpecker felt the need to wake us up. Thank you, Amity, for sharing what the project on the wall behind you is. I absolutely love it. Hope you two do this again.
I went to Sydney last year for 5 days, saw no spiders but really it’s the drop bears you have to look out for. 😂 Enjoyed your Q&A session, and look forward to another - take care, Nic x
Drop bears. 😂😂😂
Really enjoyed listening to u both answer questions while I stitched w u! Those were some really good questions n I found myself answering out loud too and Luci looked over like uhhh r u talking to me? 🤣🐈⬛🪡❤️
This was such a fun video! Fun to learn more about you both!
Thanks for spending some time with us! 🥰
Loved the video! I just got started on bird nerd ! Totally love it 😍
I loved this episode!
Thank you so much! 🥰
That was a fun video. You two are great.
Thank you so much for spending some time with us! 🥰
More, please! ❤️
We have more planned! 🥰
I saw the aurora in Norway, on my 2nd visit, both specifically to go aurora hunting. I cried. These little Norwegian ladies came running over asking if i was ok and my friend replied that id just seen the aurora and it was happy tears😂😂😂😂
That's amazing! I will 100% cry (happy tears of course) if I ever get to see one in person! 😂 Did you go at different times of the year? I keep looking at calendars to see when the best time to go is. I would be so bummed if I went and didn't get to see one.
@HathawayStitchers the successful time was Tromso in late October. I think the further north you go the better
Thank you for an entertaining and informative flosstube. From the wood pecker, to spiders, a groundhog family, side salad lol. Enjoyed watching you stitch.
I live your videos and beautiful stitching. I am so glad Spring is on its way! Cannot wait to see more of your beautiful projects and the progress on them.
You too crack me up. Awesome fun stitch with me……✂️🪡🧵
Oh ladies, this was fuuun!! Thanks so much for sharing this time with us and letting us get to know you a bit.
I am surely a fan of long videos and also of stitch with me videos so this was right up my alley. I enjoy you two so much, Erinn and Amity so thank you again. 😊
I enjoyed this video so much. ❤❤
We are so glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for spending some time with us! ♥️
Loved this video. Not only the stitching time but the questions and laughter. I have a ton of turkeys around my house but never thought about naming them. That was hilarious. Thanks for a great start to my day.
❤❤❤
Hi Erinn and Amity! I loved this format of stitch with us, thank you so much, and I hope you do them again in the future as your busy schedules allow. I loved the tangents as well. Thank you for filming and revealing more insider information, Hope you both have a wonderful weekend. Dawn in Texas
Side salad,I nearly spit my drink out 😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Soooo funny!
Amity - Pileated Woodpecker! They are SO cool ❤ My favorite bird is the killdeer!!! I also love my hobbies and go crazy with all the things. Diamond painting came before cross stitch - have way too many I need to destash as well 🤦🏻♀️
Omg. You mentioned a killdeer. I just learned about this bird yesterday. I went to a tulip farm and they had part of it cordoned off because a killdeer couple have a nest there. They are beautiful.
This was fun. It was nice to get to know you better and lots of laughs as well.
Your Christmas morning had me laughing. My dad didn’t brew coffee but we had to wait for him to get out of bed and get the 8mm movie camera ( circa 1962) and then load the “flash bulbs” which were a row of flood lights that apparently took FOREVER to put together.We would have to wait patiently(or not) and then stumble towards the tree, blinded by the floodlights, to see what Santa left. Ahhhh, happy childhood memories! Torture at the time, hilarious now.💕
Yay! Your French pronunciations are beautiful!
I tried! 😅 Thanks for your help! ♥️
My new fave flosstubers ❤ I've been stitching for years but never really learned how to "properly" (my backs are a MESS haha), and actually find it so useful and interesting to watch others stitch!
My son calls my mom (his grandma, of course lol) Gma as well! Love it! 🩵 great video!
Aww! We love that! 🥰
Loved Side Salad. I would love to have that many animals in my backyard but in Stlanta we don’t get that many. Although we have coyotes and one of them are one our cats so I can’t like them anymore. We do t let our cats run around but he escaped.
I had a chance to get a ticket for weekend A of Stitch Con but sadly can’t go. I am hoping for next year.
Not seen giant spiders in Sydney but you'll find plenty of bin chickens around the Opera House/harbour
Such a fun video! I’m totally surprised that I love your channel as much as I do because I think that I am the only stitcher that hates birds. (Sorry!) You aren’t alone Amity. I too could not manage to march and play flute at the same time. I totally faked it until I got busted when the director did a walk through. I was relegated to flag corps for marching season. How I could twirl a flag and march, but not play and march, is beyond me.
Hello again from Tennessee! So....... Amity....... Others of us love love Schitts Creek too. How about a secret along pattern? I completely trust your skills and would love to buy the pattern and stitch the ones you've done so far so we are stitching together. Whatcha think? You have creative license to make changes and you could even include them in the patterns. You could stitch a section and release it after you've finished. Please please please? 😁😁😁. I'm getting to watch your video and stitch each day before I go and sit with my mom. It's been absolutely wonderful! Thank you so very much! (Ps... My name is Nola.... Find that printed on things lolol) An audio book suggestion.....(Which by the way is the best thing ever if they have a good voice because you can stitch and listen) Lillian Jackson Braun "The Cat Who" series. Same characters in all the books and the same reader. (George Gwidell ... Spelled right?) They are easy enough to hear and concentrate on stitching. 😉
Such a great video 😍 I just want to stitch with you all the time now - that would be so awesome! Thanks for keeping me company while taking a little break from cross stitching - I love watching your videos! And yay to the awesome little party hat 😍😍😍
I enjoyed stitching along with the sisters! I participated in the conversation even though you couldn't hear me! Had to pause the video 😂until I finished laughing about side salad!
I hear you about the project bags. I’d gladly buy one. I love your inner pocket. But what if you sold the how to guide?! ha
I so enjoyed this
Please do again
We are so glad you enjoyed it! 🥰 We have more planned! Happy Stitching! 🪡
Ah, I feel ya on losing your 40th trip - my husband and I had a cruise to Norway planned for our 20th that same year. So we booked a different one for our 25th (next year) and, well, it got cancelled too and I couldn't decide if the whole idea was cursed or not. Time will tell, because we're trying again.
Oh no! Hopefully the third time's a charm! 🤞🏻 I haven't even attempted to rebook mine yet. Maybe for my 45th. 😅
@@HathawayStitchers I thought of you (OMG NERD) this weekend. We got to see some spectacular northern lights from our backyard and a friend of mine in KY also saw them. Hope you had success!
I really enjoyed this video. I stitched right along with you!
Thank you for spending some time with us - glad you got to stitch too! 🥰
Hi again! I can't find my other comment to edit. I just learned about another open source free Photoshop alternative called Krita. It has a much easier UI to learn than GIMP.
If you make a planner you could also sell it as a downloadable on your Etsy… just saying! 😂
I use Photoshop Elements which is alot cheaper than Photoshop but does everything I need!
Excellent suggestion - thank you! Happy Stitching! 🪡
Hi Erin and Amity. Loved this stitch wth time. Question I have that stand you are using, how do you end a thread with it. I have to take my hoop off it to end the thread and then put it back on. Seems like a hassle but have not figured out any other way to do it.
Hello! We're so glad you enjoyed the Stitch with Us! The stand has a knob on the side of the bracket that holds the hoop/Qsnap that loosens so you can flip the project upside down to end a thread. Then you just flip it back and tighten the knob to start a new thread. We had a few people ask about this so have a quick demo of how it works on our new video that will be out in the next couple of days.
Thank you for watching! Happy stitching!
GIMP is a free software. It's very similar to photoshop.
Side salad 😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Fun video! I enjoyed the questions too. It helped us get to know you better. ❤️🪡

🐨👍
♥️
Erin, I have not tried two handed stitching. On your stand, does it flip around to end your stitches or do you use a pin stitch.?
It does flip around! There's a knob on one side that you can loosen so you can flip it over to end stitches. Amity just ordered one, so I'm looking forward to hear how she likes it!
I'm 73yrs. old and love you two!! You're so adorable. I look forward to your floss tube so much. But I don't understand why you say each time the phrase “ she, her”, what do you mean by that? Why do you say it? Lol
is there a pattern you might recommend for making project bags?
Hello! We have 2 great tutorials linked in our video description. Erinn has used both and highly recommends them!
@@HathawayStitchers yay! thank you so much
And we are off this was unexpected x
Surprise! 🪡
