Hi beautiful stitchers! I started the Bless our Home SAL and being a novice to 28 count evenweave, I cut my fabric as the chart stated, not realizing that the chart measurements were for 2 strands over one! I quickly realized the fabric was cut too small! Since I didn't want to waste the fabric I began stitching 2 over one. It is tedious but I love the effect. I am going to try to complete it this way. I thought maybe this is something you could mention in your next video for those of us who are less experienced. I know you two don't cut your fabric and that would be one advantage of not cutting it until you are done! And also an advantage of starting the project in the top left corner instead of the center. I am using PC conversion and love the colors!! This will be slow going for me but I will enjoy stitching along with you 2 very special ladies! Thank you for all you do for us!! I spend my stitchy money at Down Sunshine Lane, 123 Stitch, Everything Crossstitch, Ebay, Hobby Lobby, and Pat Catan. I do not have a LNS in northwest PA. If anyone reading knows of an LNS within a 2 hour radius please let me know! P.S. I am trying to get my daughter to start stitching again. She is a mother of 3, like you will be soon Chelsea, but I think she can find a little time here and there. Of course, I was inspired to encourage her because of you two!
Nedlewerks shop in Copperas Cove, Texas is my little treasure trove. I could spend hours there and all my stitching money goes to them. Love you Priscilla & Chelsea. You gals have become my inspiration and have brought me so much joy!!
My husband and I got married 25 years ago and spent our honeymoon in Williamsburg, Virginia. We go back 2 times a year-because it’s beautiful in the summer and autumn BUT also because I can visit the LNS called, Haus Tirol! It’s a MUST visit each time we go. Lots of models, charts and fabrics to be found and I always leave with a bag full of stitching goodies. I look so forward to picking out and kitting up a new start at each visit. This cute shop and it’s nice owners always make me a happy girl-poor but very happy!
I enjoy you two so much that I rewatch these several times!
Hi Priscilla and Chelsea! My fave part of your videos is when you show us your finishes. I’m a beginner and bought from 123 Stitch, Amazon and JoAnn’s!
Love watching every week! Some suggestions for for each day of the week would be Sampler Saturday, Memorial Monday for patriotic stitches, Tiny Tuesday for small projects, Townhouse Thursday for any design with a house/building, and Farm Friday. I've been a neglectful stitcher so thank you Chelsea for getting me motivated with Red, White and Bloom. I have my own little competition to get it done before you do and at the rate I'm going, you're winning 'cause I have 0 stitches! Happy stitching!!!
Down sunshine Lane is my favorite! They are always so helpful! 🌸
Love your videos so much! Look forward to them every week! I’d love to see a “finish with me” video. Your finishes are so beautiful I’d love to see the process of how you finish one of your pieces.
Love your all your flosstube I loved that someone gave your books. Love that you have a library corners for all your children. I am a retire Children Librarian. Love, Love books. Thank you for sharing your flosstube.
Shepherd's Needle in Little Rock, AR is my go to brick and mortar shop and Silver Needle for on line shopping.
I have been shopping at The Stitching Post in Catonsville, Maryland for over 40 years. It's a wonderful store and everyone is so nice. I also share the wealth at many different on-line stores.
I have been a customer of Stitchville in Minnetonka, MN, for over 20 years. Fabulous store. BTW--I just finished the Sampler House III this last week! It is a fun design. Blessings, Diane
The Cottage Needle on Etsy is wonderful. Wish we had a more local shop but I have really enjoyed Needleworker’s Delight in Metuchen, NJ. Also home of Silkweaver fabrics!
My happy place is definitely Shepards Bush in Ogden, Utah. They have SO many displays I can spend hours in there just looking around!
Strawberry Sampler in Chadds Ford, Pa. Been a customer since their inception, thinking 1984 or earlier. They have a great Super Bowl sale! Also like 1,2,3 Stitch online. I check out resale shops too.
It's also nice to do charity stitching to motivate you to stitch, as you have a deadline. I've done over 40 quilt squares for Love Quilts.
I had to slow down because of arthritis in my right hand (I am left handed) and my medication makes me drowsy. I still try to stitch a few times a month and will do The Prairie Schooler Santas ( bucket list)
123stitch for now. Planning some summer trips to my first actual stitching store! I’m so excited. Love your videos. Thank you.
I don't have a local LNS shop, so I shop mostly on-line at 123 Stitch, Down Sunshine Lane, and Julie of Gulf Coast Stitcher. All of these on-line shops are great...super customer service..thx for sharing your patterns, finishes...so motivating...I did get my Bless Our Home pattern and floss...so I'm ready to go...your videos are great and they definitely increase my stitchy inventory...until next time...take care
I love 123 Stitch for online shopping and Fancy Works in Bloomington, IN!!!!
I love The Strawberry Sampler in Chadds Ford, PA. It is about an hour and a half away from my house, so I supplement emergency floss needs with 123 stitch.
The Finishing Touch Louisville, KY. A happy place indeed!
I spend a lot of my cross stitch money at Cross Stitch Station in Waynesboro, VA. Terry's father owned a service station many years ago and her uncle (I think ) built an automotive repair shop nearby. Terry's shop is in the last bay. It is completely sealed off from the auto shop but I think it is an unusual location. Her shop is crammed full. Carolyn
Crazy Annie for my charts! Victorian Motto Sampler for my fancy flosses! You guys crack me up, thank you!
I shop at Dyeing to Stitch in Virginia Beach, Va. I'm so fortunate to have this shop, So close I can get there and back on my lunch hour!
One of my favorite xstitch shops is Stitchers Haven in Guntersville AL. It’s in a cute little town right on the lake so there’s fishing for the guys too. Barbara is the store owner and she’s on Facebook too. Awesome shop!!
I enjoy going to The Shepherd’s Needle in Little Rock, Arkansas. After seeing the floss for your next Chalk on the Farm, I’m going to guess that it is a strawberry farm. Thanks for another fun video. Hope you aren’t too cold & snowy.
Such a fun video! I shop at Shepherd's Needle in Little Rock, AR. Ann (the owner) has ordered several older items for me and other customers as well; she does mail order too. She is working on her web site, but you can always email or call about charts and supplies. And I'm pretty sure she has restocked the Word Play charts; she has each stitched as a model.
Love you two and have caught up on all your videos! Haha! You inspired me to start my own flosstube. My mom and I are a lot like you two, always hanging out and getting crafty together and it's so nice to watch you. Thanks for all the videos!
Our local not so local LNS is an hour away but we travel there as much as possible. -> strawberry sampler shop in Glenn Mills PA. I love spending my stitching money there.
My favourite LNS is Traditional Stitches in Calgary, Alberta Canada.
My happy place is The Stitching Bee in Green Bay, WI. Kendra, the owner, keeps her inventory fresh and current. She is well stocked and would never run out of hickory sticks. Green Bay is a great place to visit but if you can’t get to the store just give Kendra a call. She will mail what you need.
I mostly shop 123 Stitch. Loved your video and finishes!
Lots of neat stuff! My LNS, Stitcher's Paradise in Las Vegas is where I spend all my stitching money. We have to support our local brick and mortar shops. Owners Gina & Nancy (who does most of the models) are super nice ladies. There's a whole wall of floss, a room filled with fabric, tons of charts, accessories. Fabulous shop.
Since I don't have a local shop, and there is not one within driving distance. I buy from Ye Olde Cross Stitchery, The Silver Needle, Stitch and Frog, and if all else fails eBay.
Stitch Niche in Arlington Texas is my current fav to purchase from. I adore the egg plate . I had one that was in my belongings I lost to flooding so seeing they are still around sometimes gives me hope Ill find another sometime. Love the finishes!
Stitches N Things in Fenton,Mich.,Rocking Horse in Farmington,Michigan and Timeless Stitches in Tecumseh,Mich.All great brick and mortar stores. Love 123 stitch online!
Reflections Framing & Stitching in Ralston, NE. Another great video!
Stitchers in Memphis, TN! Love them :)
Love that Patriotic haul Chelsea! Online go to shop is 123 Stitch. I travel a decent amount so I am familiar with several great bricks and mortar shops and spread the wealth among several! The Silver Needle in Tulsa, Ok is great, Stitch Nitche in Arlington, TX has a fantastic fiber selection, Cecilia’s Samplers in Branson, MO is a must go to shop as well. 😀
I loved your video. Always nice ti see the work of your both. Have a nice stitching time.
In Arizona The Attic. Fabulous video. Thanks for sharing.
The Stitch Point, Greensboro, NC. Love your videos and everything you are stitching.
I like to shop at Patches and Stitches in Huntsville Al. Very helpful and in a cute old house.
Discovered a fairly new shop outside of Asheville NC called Sassy Jacks. Very nice shop.
I shop at Tomorrow’s Heirlooms in Glen Ellyn and Inspired Needle in Lemont, both in Illinois. Was in TH day after your visit last weekend. Would have been so fun to meet you. Flosstube is responsible for my return to cross stitch. I enjoy your videos! They make me miss my daughter though. So nice to see you enjoy each other as well as your hobby.
We dont have a shop anywhere close, so I usually have good luck with the online shop, Everything Crossstitch.
We have a wonderful store in Minnesota called Stitchville. The store is in Minnesota, just west of Minneapolis. I also shop at Stitchery X-press with Cindy Sorley.
I do most of my stitchy shopping on 123 Stitch. The nearest LNS is about four hours away.
We don't have LNSes. We might have stores for knitting yarn that sells dmc but it costs 2,22 dollars per skein. So I do buy my threads from online shops cause otherwise I wouldn't be able to stitch. My favorite online store is Casa Cenina cause they have almost everything.
I go to crafty you in Cleveland Ohio and not forgotten farms on line. Loved your haul and finishes.....❤️
I'm a new stitcher with no stores near but but I love Stoney Creeks site where I can get epatterns I love.
I love watching you ladies. Your lots of fun!
Great video as always ladies!! Your finishes look so amazing!! My favorite place to spend my stitchey money is traditional stitches just outside Calgary Alberta, Canada 💜💜
The Silver Needle in Tulsa Oklahoma is my LNS....even though I live a couple of hours away. It is a great experience to shop there. They sponser retreats and have many Auto ships. Also I guess a wheat farm. You two are great ...so many good ideas. I go get stitch board if I am not in the market for something else and have a coupon for Hobby Lobby. Thank you so much for visiting with us and sharing ideas and stories.
My favorite needlework shop is Hearts Desire in Wichita, Ks. Debbie, the owner and her staff are super friendly, helpful and make every trip to their shop a fun experience. They have an awesome display of beautiful samples on the walls, everywhere. Stop by if you're ever in town!
I live in a small town in the UK, so tend to shop online on sewandso and Lakeside needlecraft :) Really enjoyed this video ladies, and your tales of your stitchy store tour/meet up day.
I love Stitch by Stitch in Cape May, NJ. Love watching and love your animals, including Calvin whom I've seen on the Facebook and blog posts! He looks ornery!
Yay books! Baby books are so cute and fun. I use 123 Stitch and Hobby Lobby.
Honey farm would be nice with sunflowers
No LNS here but I have been using Down Sunshine Lane. I would like to hit up The Stitching Bee, in Green Bay-maybe when the snow stops in Wisconsin. This weekend was bad, traveled from Ft. Wayne, for the Vera Bradley outlet sale and hit a blizzard when we arrived home. Yuck snow!
You two always make me laugh! My local LNS is Cross My Heart in Columbus, OH. But I recently visited Attic Needlework in Mesa, AZ and was in heaven!!!!! Wish it were closer.
My favorite store is Stitchville in Minnetonka, MN!
Thanks so much for another great video! I'm lucky to have Shepard's Bush in Ogden, Utah as my LNS. I also love ordering from Down Sunshine Lane & 123Stitch online. I just ordered my "Bless Our Home SAL" pattern from Down Sunshine Lane :)
Sassy Jacks, Stitch and Frame Shop --I'm between the two. 123 stitch, DownSunshine Lane...Love them all.
Oh my gosh! Thank you so much for the shout out, I was wondering how do many switchers were finding me this week. So far I am loving bless our home on 40 count.
Love....Keepsakes in Sharonville, Ohio....the Cincinnati area...a great shop!
I'm so happy Priscilla and CathyH got to finally meet! The Meet & Greet was so much fun. Chelsea, thanks for coming along. You all have made my week! Lovely finishes; congrats on the Halloween Rules finish. We (Inspired Needle) also carry the Word Play patterns and have quite a few of the L*K Yearbook still in stock.
Cathy TheNeedle do have a link for the wordplays in your shop we can add to the bottom of the video?
Sent it to your email. It was pretty long and I didn't want to hog up your comments area.
I have a manic Monday (anything goes), Twitchy Tuesday (Halloween), Wooly Wednesday (wool applique), This and That Thursday ( Could be Spring, could be Summer ...who knows) Fall Friday (all things fall), Sewing Saturday (Rev up the sewing machine!) Santa Sunday (all things Christmas).
Very fun video, as always! It was so funny because last week I bought LNH Brave Hearts and Americana Sampling, I had the Autumn Sampler Band and looked at it and decided I need to do all four. The summer one is very cute, my favorite next to the autumn. The Silver Needle in Tulsa is my favorite stitchy shop. Love your videos, oh, that egg is crazy huge!!LOL
Your videos are my weekly treat!! I usually spend my cross stitch dollars online (ebay) but I do make the effort to make trips to my local LNSs. Ye Olde Cross Stitchery in Bristol
PA and the Strawberry Sampler in Glen Mills PA. I think there are others in the area but these are the two I know. Time to investigate!
Covered Bridge needlearts in Bridgewater, PA.
Love all your finishing! My LNS is stitch it Central.
Stitch and Frame in Fort Wayne, Indiana They ship!!!
Fun times! My shop is Shanty Stitcher’s in Beresford SOuth Dakota!!

Hi ladies! I enjoy buying charts from 123 stitch and some of the designers on Etsy like The Little Stitcher.
Such great haul! It's so fun to spend the day shopping with friends, so expensive too though LOL My favorite place to hang out and stitch and spend money is Stiches From the Heart in San Antonio, TX
just starting back to stitching and I'm sad to say there is no brick and mortar store near me except Michaels so looking forward to seeing where people love to spend their money online
I’m sure Calvin took the Hickory sticks. My LNS is We Of The Needle in Brea, California. I spend a lot there. I went to 2 estate sales today. So exciting when they have craft stuff!
Stitchery Nook at Osage, Iowa! ❤️❤️
My LNS is the Rocking Horse in Farmington, Michigan. They do beautiful framing.
I get my charts at 123 stitch my closest shop in 2 1/2 to 3 away love your finishes they look beautiful
Im waiting for my Halloween and Christmas rules to get here!!!! I cannot wait!!!
I alternate between Down Sunshine Lane and 123 Stitch.
Fun video! Loved your description of driving with your mom:). We call it the “help me Jesus handle”!
I was lucky enough to visit a new to me store in Clinton, Iowa this weekend!!!!! It’s called Stitchin n’ Stuff. It was a great little store and I had such fun shopping.
Loved your haul. Lots of great charts!
Can't wait to start the newest SAL! I just received my shipping notice from Down Sunshine Lane, so it will be here next week. Yay! Love spending my stitchy money with Down Sunshine Lane and 123stitch.
Love your video! Love you girls! In Lancaster County, PA I shop at Stitches Unlimited and if they don't have what I want/need they are happy to order it for me. I always love shopping at other stitch shops when I travel but I don't hesitate to shop on Etsy either! Have a great week!
Congratulations on your Halloween finish Chelsea! Love your wips and finishes girls xx
123 Stitch!! The best😁 Love your finishes and the best on your pregnancy Chelsea!
Hi Ladies!! So back in the day, Micheals was the place to go now not so much, but just for floss. I mainly shop at 123 stitches or I spend money on subscription of either Just cross stitch or cross stitch GOLD is my favorite magazine. There is no stitching store near me. Except one in the big city of Toronto. I haven't visited that one yet but plan to in the summer. This weekend we were snowed in with rain, then ice rain, everything was frozen, then it snowed for Saturday and Sunday all day. Then we got frozen rain on top of the snow and everything is dangerous to travel and to even go outside to clean the frozen mess. Great stitching TFS!! :))
The Stitchers Garden in Conway, AR. They have and amazing shop and online store ...also, they do SAL every year ....and you can go and stitch there on Saturday and talk with everyone....so much fun.....great finishes...love the puppy.....your right on the sticky broad can not find it any where...ordering on-line...
My favorite store is Stitches n Things in Fenton, MI.
I have a lot of sympathy for you Chelsea! About 15 years ago (I'm still mentally scared) hubs volunteered me to car pool with one of his mates as they were down to one car, &we worked fairly close to each other. For the next six months I had to hold the newspaper up over my face & read it out loud so I couldn't focus on how freaking close he drove to the car in front.
I was so happy when they got their finances in order & replaced their car... So so happy!
Online I spend at 123 & Downsunshine, at home I use Ribbon Rose in Mt Wellington, Auckland. Fabric from Countrystitch fabric dyer. Nom nom.
My favorite brick and mortar shop is The Village Sampler in St. Albans, WV. Unfortunately, that is a 2.5 hour drive for me! So I shop at 123stitch online, as well as Down Sunshine Lane and Picture This Plus.
You could have started a Monday Monthlies, to work on any month of the year, cottage of the month, word play of the month etc.
The Silver Needle is my favorite shop in Tulsa Ok, We have gone to the Camp Wanna Sew 4 times now!
I shop online stores. JK's cross stitch supplies, Gulf Coast Stitches, Esty, and Down Sunshine Lane
I spend most of my stitchy money at Hobby Lobby cause I don’t have an LNS near me in Summerville, GA. I spend the rest of my money at my local Goodwill.
I would've been ok to start the SAL yesterday at my daughters wedding but my daughter had other ideas! Today! I spend a lot of my stitchy money at The Tinsmith's Wife in Comfort, TX. Its fairly new to me but it's a wonderful shop!
Vickie Wehring 😂😂 congratulations!! It could have been a belated wedding gift 😉😉😉
123 stitch...crazy Annie’s.
I’m getting back into cross stitch after many years and I just discovered Ye Olde Cross Stitchery in Bristol, PA less than a mile from me!
My favorite store is Dyeing to Stitch in Va. Beach, Va
