Hello. I am Cathy's Mother. I am so proud of all the beautiful handwork she does. No, I did not teach her how. All of this is her thing. She started small and now has an enormous following! I Love it.
Cathy is so creative, talented and is so willing to help others! She cheers us on and she gives us the confidence to make what she does. Great job Mom!
I loved your piece "Thank you for the world so sweet". When I was at junior school (here in the UK) we said grace before lunch, and that was what we said! "Thank you for the world so sweet, Thank you for the food we eat, Thank you for the birds that sing, Thank you God for everything, Amen". I still remember it after 63 years.
Hi Cathy. I so enjoy seeing all your stitching and FFOs. I’m hoping watching you with all your beautiful finishes will inspire me to fully finish some of my own stitched projects. Keep them coming.
Oh Cathy how exciting a stitch retreat at shepherds bush and with Brenda Gervais! I actually signed up for my very first retreat locally here in Texas with a quilt shop who is giving there very first crossstitch retreat! I’m so excited because I can’t travel far to attend any others. I love this community and all you share . Thank you
Cathy, I love all of your adorable little creatures, plus your stitching, and all of your projects. I just love seeing your updates on your Flosstubes!
Hi Cathy, just saw your video for the first time and loved it. The way you have finished your stitching is so unique. I’m fairly new to cross stitching but have bought around 100 patterns when I didn’t really know what I was doing. Now I want to buy all the ones you showed. Love your stitching 😊
Cathy : this was such a. Wonderful video. Your stitching and finishing is so inspIring. You accomplish so much. Your finishing ideas are wonderful . Thank you for sharing..
Thank you for sharing Cathy, your finishes are beautiful, as always. Your Brenda Gervais tomato grouping is fabulous! I too love to listen to audiobooks and stitch away. Always look forward to your next video.
Another wonderful video with beautiful stitching and absolutely lovely finishes. I learn something new every time and appreciate how you describe your finishing techniques. I wish I could be there for your tutorials! I am so happy that you are able to attend the retreat with Brenda Gervais. I'm sure she would be honoured by all of the beautiful projects you have done with her designs. Take good care and I look forward to seeing you next time. 💖 Laurel
Your idea for a shadow box with the separate stitching pillows all on one piece is great, but then you always have clever ideas. :-) Happy Stitching!!! Janice @ A Positive Outlook
I so enjoy your videos. Thank you . I'm a Brenda Gervais fan also, it is so much fun to see your stitching and patterns you have for future stitching. Fun, fun. Thanks again !
Absolutely beautiful all your finishes!!! I already started Things Unseen by Lizzie Kate and I am loving it. How nice that you are going to have a stitch time with Nancy and other friends!!! It is great that you are going to Welcome Stitchery!!!! They are so friendly and funny!!! I am so happy for you that your dreams are coming true!!
I always look forward to your updates and beautiful stitching❤. I love what you did with 'Keeper of the Pins'. I have had that chart since it came out, but really did not love the idea of six (more!) sewing themed smalls! You have inspired me - with sincerest admiration - to stitch it as you did. Thank you❤
Love your idea of a shadow box. You must also stitch “My Needle Berry” by Erica Michaels as it has a sewing bird on it. And then finish it as a strawberry. It would be a fabulous addition to your shadow box!
Hi Cathy, always enjoy your videos, so so much eye candy and lovely stitching. Sounds like you are going to have an exciting stitching year ahead. Enjoy, Kristy.
Such beautiful things you’ve fully finished! I would love to see a tutorial on 1 over 1 stitching from you. (Something I struggle with and avoid right now.) Thank you for doing such interesting, inspirational videos for all to see! ❤
Stitching one over one is just like stitching one over two, you just go over one thread instead of two threads. It’s a little tricky on linen because the holes are small, but try it on Lugana or an even weave and it’s much easier. Good luck and thanks for watching! 🤗
Hello Cathy ! I watched your video and as usual I learned something from you! Well you described how you did that long pillow and I loved it and so watched it again and immediately went to my sewing room to FFO a cute piece I had cross stitched and made my own pillow !! Well to say I absolutely love it is an understatement! Thank you for your knowledge and doing your Flosstube! I can see more of these little long pillows in my FFO finishes !🥰
Love your little tube Love is kind. This was such an awesome flosstube. Thank you for sharing. Happy stitching. ❤ I ordered the book from Amazon it was on sale.
I did the same Crochette A GoGo dog and cat valentine. I thought it was adorable. I always learn so many new ways and techniques for finishing from you as you show your beautiful projects. Your videos are like the Big Book of Finishing Techniques for Stitiching.
What a fantastic video. Lucky peeps who will have you teaching! I'm so excited for you going to Shepherds Bush retreat with Brenda Gervais❤. Can't wait for your next video. ❤❤❤
We’re so glad that we’re your outlet for your stitchy stuff! We love it all! I would love to be able to come to Welcome Stitchery when you’re there, but it’s a little far for this Texas Girl! We can’t wait for another floss tube!
So much inspiration in one hour! Had to stop so many times to write down everything! I loved everything you showed and I am nominating you as the unofficial president of the BrendaG fan girls club! 😊I’m a fan too!❤
Cathy, I just love your flosstube! You’re so skilled and creative and I get new ideas every video. Also, I am a mostly monogamous stitcher for the same reason and I inventory my flosses (and patterns!).😊
Dearest Cathy, your love of cross stitch and your enthusiasm for it is so cute! And fun to watch! Your love of Brenda Gervais is adorable. I love it! All your work is beautiful! Thank you for showing us many ways to finish. We love your work and never grow tired of it! Yes, Mama, we love Cathy and are so proud of all she accomplishes and does for us crafters. 💝
I love to make things small by stitching one over one also…the birdhouse Sal I am doing on 28 evenweave over one…the birdhouses are adorable. I recently explained about the envelope back on mini pillows for my Prairie Birds mini pillows and my subscribers were amazed. It is very easy and quick. I have to finish every weekend in order to do my flosstubes every second week…it is tricky. You are awesome at finishing.
Hi Cathy - why not ask your husband for an idea about the stitching bird when he makes the shadow box for you? He has seen your stuff for years and he may have a good idea. Love seeing all your finishes - you should write a book especially as now you are going to teach some of it. Have fun at your lunch tomorrow and say hi to Nancy.
Wow 🤩 love seeing all of your beautiful finishes they all look amazing and what a collection of patterns. Have a wonderful Thursday and happy stitching 😊🧵🪡🤗🤩
Thank you Cathy for another wonderful video. I love all your beautiful stitching. The embroidery bag and pieces that you showed, I have either made or have them kitted up to embroider. The finishing idea of the little bunny from Not Forgotten Farm is genius. I ordered the same pattern and may copy your idea. I just need to figure out how to make the little purse. You are so talented.
Such great stitchy news regarding all your classes and retreats. They’re going to be fabulous!! I saw a couple more Brenda’s that will need to go on my list. I’m really looking forward to seeing your progress on them!
So excited that you got into your dream retreat! Hope to see you and Nancy together again for a video sometime soon! I know what you mean about your family getting sick of seeing your stuff, same with mine! Thank you for sharing yours with us!
Hi Cathy! What a delightful evening I had watching your floss tube. It was so entertaining to see all the different projects that you stitched and finished. You are so creative and talented. Cathy as you described and spoke about your needlework, your face was beaming with happiness which was so evident that crafting is your passion! Shepherds Bush retreat… hurray for you!
Your finishes are so lovely, Cathy! I love how you stitched Keeper of the Pins. It’s going to be a beautiful finish. And congratulations on getting into the Shepherd’s Bush Retreat!! That’s a dream for me, as well. Thank you for sharing your love of cross stitching AND finishing. You are an inspiration!
Cathy - love all the things, as always!!! I really like what you did with the Keeper of the Pins designs - I'm gonna have to copy that one! And I am the same......... I could stitch nothing but Brenda G for the rest of the year (or two.....) and not stitch all that I have. Looking forward to the next video - thanks for sharing. And good for you, for getting into the SB Retreat in October. I love Teri and Tina - they are lovely ladies for sure.
As usual a great video. I just had bought the big book of embroidery after watching Crafty Cottage Stitches a week ago or so. I love the bag. I want to make the bag soon. I absolutely love the Brenda Gervais finish of the tomato patterns. I would never have thought of that. You are a genius. Thanks for inspiration .❤❤
Your videos are always so inspirational! Your finishing work is so impressive! Great job! I am slow on my finishing work...too many decision 🤔. I love what you did with the tomato patterns. Brilliant idea. I have just finished stitching all mine and I just stuck with the little pillows. Obviously I'm not as wonderfully creative as you!!! I also have alot of Brenda's patterns. I have stitched all the samplers of the season and I love them all. I have also done and finished! the 3D bunny and the Madame Cottontail pocket. I did finish that as a pocket with the wool pennies. Thank you for sharing all your wonderful work with us!
Hi Cathy :-)) I love your videos so inspiring I was able to purchase the embroidery book you had suggested I did find it on Amazon thx so much for the suggestion !! Loved seeing all of your cross stitch pieces and hearing about all of the things you plan on stitching for the spring!!!
I very much love everything you showed, Cathy. All of your stitching and finishing is so beautiful. I'm so happy that you do flosstubes and share all the beautiful things you make. You are so creative and inspiring. Thank you so much for all that you do.
Hi Cathy, so enjoy your videos! You are so creative and talented! I have that embroidery book you showed. I bought it and never looked at it! LOL! Now I want to make all the things.
Such beautiful pieces as usual, Cathy! I just love your idea of a little coin purse and can't wait to see the finished project! I also thought stitching the Brenda Gervais tomato pieces into one long piece was genius and inspiring! ❤
Great floss tube. You have awesome content and I so enjoy the time I spend with you. I love the idea of you finishing a piece with the hem stitch. I've wanted to try this, too, but I'm still holding off. Let me see how it goes for you and I'll consider doing it myself. Sounds like a fun year ahead. Enjoy it. Nancy
I have been binge watching all the sew and sews floss tubes. Not just once, but over and over again. I keep missing something. Then, I have to go and order a pattern or a book. I stopped this video and went and found the Big Book of Embroidery on eBay and ordered it. Then went back to the video. I'm girl fanning you. I want to be just like you when I grow up (I'm 69)😊. Wished I lived closer for stitch day with you and Nancy, but I think Northwest Arkansas is a little too far away. I really, really enjoy your videos.
What a wonderful video! Thanks for sharing your stitching finishes, WIPS & plans. All of the charts you shared are so great. Your retreat and event plans for the year are so exciting, how fun to be a featured guest. Have a good time with Nancy and your other stitchy friends, a wonderful way to spend the day.
Oooh! I got the book on Amazon $8 plus change and another Gail Pan book for 3.99 (80% off) couldn't pass up..... while I was doing that I lost my needle 😊 How fun to get together with friends. I would love to take a class with you sometime. Gosh you are on the go with all the retreats..... turning a little shade of green here😄💚 Anywho love everything you show us ...big BG fan here too.
I also love Brenda's designs, there isn't 1 that I don't like. I don't buy floss for everything, I use what I have unless it's a big house, then I will buy new skeins so that it all matches. I still use bobbins & have them in a Matchbox car case. Great projects! Marlyn
Such beautiful stitching! I’m going to try your idea of sewing the Keeper of the Pins into a bell pull! I hope I can figure out the numbers to have it look as great as yours! Sounds like you have a wonderful year to look forward too! Until next time Happy Stitching!!💕
Hello. I am Cathy's Mother. I am so proud of all the beautiful handwork she does. No, I did not teach her how. All of this is her thing. She started small and now has an enormous following! I Love it.
You should be proud momma! She does a great job and is so inspirational! I love watching her!!!
Cathy is so creative and love the way she finishes her pieces. We're so lucky to have her sharing her talent and inspiration with all of us.
Cathy is so creative, talented and is so willing to help others! She cheers us on and she gives us the confidence to make what she does. Great job Mom!
And we sew love her and all she shares!
I just adore your stitching and finishing! I’d rather stitch than do about anything! Happy stitching!
I loved your piece "Thank you for the world so sweet". When I was at junior school (here in the UK) we said grace before lunch, and that was what we said! "Thank you for the world so sweet, Thank you for the food we eat, Thank you for the birds that sing, Thank you God for everything, Amen". I still remember it after 63 years.
Hi Diana! That’s awesome! I’m finished with the pattern so send me your address and I will send it to you in the mail. 😁
Oh my gosh, the way you put all the Brenda Gervais pillow designs on one piece of fabric is awesome! What a great idea for a shadow box!
Thank you! 😊
Cathy, you are a remarkable stitcher and finisher. I have been so inspired by you. Thank you so much for sharing your talent.
Thank you so much! You are very welcome! 🤗
Hi Cathy. I so enjoy seeing all your stitching and FFOs. I’m hoping watching you with all your beautiful finishes will inspire me to fully finish some of my own stitched projects. Keep them coming.

Glad you like them! 🤗
Your videos are always so inspirational! Your finishing work is so impressive! Great job! I am slow on my finishing work...too many decision 🤔. I love what you did with the tomato patterns. Brilliant idea. I have just finished stitching all mine and I just stuck with the little pillows. Obviously I'm not as wonderfully creative as you!!! I also have alot of Brenda's patterns. I have stitched all the samplers of the season and I love them all. I have also done and finished! the 3D bunny and the Madame Cottontail pocket. I did finish that as a pocket with the wool pennies. Thank you for sharing all your wonderful work with us!
Thank you for watching!! 🤗

Wonderful! Now you will have lots of new projects! 😁🧵🧵
Love all your finished pieces.
Thanks so much! 😊
Such beautiful pieces as usual, Cathy! I just love your idea of a little coin purse and can't wait to see the finished project! I also thought stitching the Brenda Gervais tomato pieces into one long piece was genius and inspiring! ❤
Thank you so much! I still need a shadow box made, but I’m hoping it will be finished soon! 😁
Great floss tube. You have awesome content and I so enjoy the time I spend with you. I love the idea of you finishing a piece with the hem stitch. I've wanted to try this, too, but I'm still holding off. Let me see how it goes for you and I'll consider doing it myself. Sounds like a fun year ahead. Enjoy it. Nancy
Thanks for watching!! 😁
I have been binge watching all the sew and sews floss tubes. Not just once, but over and over again. I keep missing something. Then, I have to go and order a pattern or a book. I stopped this video and went and found the Big Book of Embroidery on eBay and ordered it. Then went back to the video. I'm girl fanning you. I want to be just like you when I grow up (I'm 69)😊. Wished I lived closer for stitch day with you and Nancy, but I think Northwest Arkansas is a little too far away. I really, really enjoy your videos.
I wish you lived closer, too!! That would be a lot of fun!! Thanks so much for watching and commenting! 😁❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful fully finishes. I always appreciate your creativity and how you share. Thanks
Thank you so much! 😊
What a wonderful video! Thanks for sharing your stitching finishes, WIPS & plans. All of the charts you shared are so great. Your retreat and event plans for the year are so exciting, how fun to be a featured guest. Have a good time with Nancy and your other stitchy friends, a wonderful way to spend the day.
Thank you so much! 😊
I love what you did with the tomatoes! Combining them in all one piece is really sweet! Beautiful projects!
Thanks so much! 😊
I received that embroidery book this week too! You are correct, it is a fabulous book 📖
It really is! Enjoy!! 🤗

You will love the Shepherd’s Bush retreat! I am in track B, I know it is a long way off but worth it.
I’m so excited about it! See you there!! 😁

Oooh! I got the book on Amazon $8 plus change and another Gail Pan book for 3.99 (80% off) couldn't pass up..... while I was doing that I lost my needle 😊 How fun to get together with friends. I would love to take a class with you sometime. Gosh you are on the go with all the retreats..... turning a little shade of green here😄💚 Anywho love everything you show us ...big BG fan here too.
That is awesome! Thanks for watching!! 😁
I also love Brenda's designs, there isn't 1 that I don't like.
I don't buy floss for everything, I use what I have unless it's a big house, then I will buy new skeins so that it all matches.
I still use bobbins & have them in a Matchbox car case.
Great projects!

Such beautiful stitching! I’m going to try your idea of sewing the Keeper of the Pins into a bell pull! I hope I can figure out the numbers to have it look as great as yours! Sounds like you have a wonderful year to look forward too! Until next time Happy Stitching!!💕
The charts are all close to the same size, so it’s easy to combine them. Have fun with them!! 🤗
