Hi Katie, lovely, informative video as always 😊. Loved the berry and stickers so sweet. Thank you Katharine ❤
Thank you so much!
Linen and berry and so much to love about your stitching!!
Thank you so much!
I thoroughly enjoy watching your flosstube channel. Thank you for sharing your beautiful stitching with us. And can anyone ever have enough linen in their textile collection? I think not. 😀
Thank you - definitely not! There's always room for more!!
Information overload, Katie! I love your choices of linen especially the Legacy linens. I look forward to seeing your progress on the Britomart sampler.
Thank you so much! I hope to have more to share soon
Another inspirational video! A chart and linen just make my day. 😊
Thank you so much!
Another wonderful flosstube. Definitely would love the chart and linen and berry not to mention stickers. I appreciate the time,you put into presentations. I will attempt to get in on the new project offering. Have to be fast fingered!
Thank you so much! I hope there will be plenty of supply - it's hard to gauge with such a big project but with luck I'll have guessed correctly...
Katie. Your band sampler is amazing. I’ve missed a few flosstubes and need to catch up - but feeling soooo delighted to have jumped in with this one. Stickers / Notebook / Linen. Congrats on such a great following
Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed it!!
Congratulations on reaching 7,000 subscribers! I loved hearing about the sampler symposium. I liked the idea of stitching bookmarks. Linen, chart
Thank you! It's a great idea, isn't it? Vickie is so creative
Congratulations on your original design of Britomart sampler. Eagerly awaiting to see your progress. :). Love your notebook, perfect for keeping a record of all chart and linen.
Me too! I've been cutting linen non stop and can't wait to get back to it...
The Britomart Sampler is gorgeous! I can't wait to see how it progresses. The Mary Hill chart is just beautiful! I will have to try stitching on a higher count linen as the highest I've gone so far is 40 count. The Berry Thief was such a cute strawberry project. Thank you for sharing all of your amazing work!
Thank you so much! I think you could definitely make the jump to 45 or 48 from 40 - give yourself a little patience for your eyes to adjust, and plenty of good light, and you should be just fine
Thank you for another wonderful floss tube episode, Katie! As always, I loved all that you presented, and your band sampler design is particularly stunning! How fun to listen to your recap ofSampler Symposium. Each floss tuber whose recap videos I have seen present their own personal reflections and experiences, which makes it so interesting! The stickers you gifted at Symposium are beautiful and would be the perfect addition to my needlework journal. I like to keep a notebook with my stitching to jot down interesting items and facts when I’m watching floss tube videos and I’ve never stitched on 48ct linen, but would love to give it a try!
Thank you! I've enjoyed all the different recaps for the same reason - I was there, I experienced the whole thing, but seeing what different people took away from it has been so interesting to hear. It speaks to what Jean has achieved, that so many people can come to an event and all find so much to appreciate in it.
Beautiful projects!! Love the linen and stickers!
Thank you so much!
So many wonderful stitchy goodness in this video. Your reversible stitching on the Britomart Sampler is exquisite. It is always great to explore and expand your techniques plus it gives your creative side a chance to shine. The Prairie Schooler is sparkly amazing! Love your Sugar Plums but can’t wait to see the next one. Parson Brown looks great on the Smoke Signal linen. The berry that Jean stitched is lovely. The threads in the Happy Morning are stunning! See you in a couple weeks.
Thank you! Trying out reversible stitching has definitely been an interesting journey for me - I've learned a few things and you really can't beat the reveal of the mirrored back!
Oh my the band sampler is stunning! Sounds like such a fabulous time, wish I was in the Northern Hemisphere for that kind of thing. Linen, stickers, notebook, all great items, thanks for your generosity. Loved your comment about not liking red because you have enough of it up top haha.
Thank you so much! Getting called carrot top every single day in the third grade will do that to you...
Love looking at your casket during your video. Would love to visit with your mom again and see what chart she’s working on. Your linen choice for the berry is beautiful. Congratulations on 7000.
I know, I keep trying to get her on but she tells me she's slow and never has anything to show (this is a lie)...
All of your stitching is gorgeous 😍 I love watching your videos ❤ Chart
Thank you!
I loved seeing your new sampler! The colors are so beautiful and so is the stitching! I hope your batteries are getting recharged and you get lots of stitchy time! Take care! berry linen chart
Thank you so much! It has been an absolute pleasure to stitch and I can't wait to get back to it
Congratulations on 7k subscribers! I am so excited for the silk conversion for This Happy Morning, alarm is set! Stickers, linen

Thank you so much!
Count me in for that splendid sampler. And Mary Hill is a chart on my “want to stitch list.” Love Legacy Linen, but I haven’t tried that count or color. Thanks for your lovely flosstubes!
Thank you so much!
You are such a pleasure to listen to and see what you have stitched. So pleasant and calm and the background behind you with your casket is just beautiful . Congratulations on reaching 7k subscribers. Love the Chart and the Berry pinkeep Look forward to watching your coming Floss tubes. Happy Stitching and God bless
Thank you so much, that's so incredibly kind of you!
Always so inspiring Katie! I am so glad I got to meet you in person and have lunch with you and the other ladies on Friday before the start of the retreat. Your presentation was hands down one of the best discussions of needle art I have ever had the pleasure of listening too. Seeing the casket in person was such a treat. I can't wait till the sampler and kit become available. I have been thinking about it since you revealed it at symposium.
Thank you so much, that's so kind, and really gratifying to hear. You never know as a presenter how the audience will respond to what you have to say. And I'm very excited to keep sharing my progress on the Britomart sampler!
Congratulations! Your work is always such an inspiration. I want to stitch everything you're stitching lol! Thank you ❤ stickers, notebook, berry, linen, chart
Thank you so much - good luck!
Your sampler is beautiful!! I can’t wait for the next installment of the Pyn Pillow!!! Stickers, notebook, chart, berry and linen.
Thank you so much!
Hi,
Love all your work in progress and congrats on the 7000 subscribers. Looking forward to the samplers to come in the future.
Notebook, stickers, linen, chart, and berry
Thank you so much!
I never regret pausing my day to watch your You Tube presentation. I could look at that Happy Morning Chart every time I stop to listen and learn. How smart to do stickers of your chart. A creative heart blesses the soul for sure. I see another strawberry chart, and they are hard not to collect. I ordered your postcards and am having a hard time parting with even one. I may need to order a notebook too. Sewing a berry on linen is something to try. I have made a strawberry from one in Just Cross Stitch magazine a few years ago. So much fun! Happy Stitching, Katie! Hope you begin a new chart soon.
Thank you so much! This Happy Morning is just beautiful, those vibrant reds and greens make my heart sing every time...
Love to watch your flosstube and the linen is beautiful.
Thank you so much!
Congratulations on 7k! 🎉 your Britomart band sampler is gorgeous! Looking forward to your haul video. The berry thief pattern would be perfect in my collection of William Morris Berry Thief accessories I’ve collected. 🍓

❤Oh my goodness! Your Britomart sampler is exquisite! And the back is as neat as the front! And your Sugar Plum Fairy!!! I need to try this in honor of my daughter who was principal ballet dancer with Carolina Ballet ( will post an IG photo). I love the Marchpane linen - my kind of color! And love the Mary Hill chart as well.Thank you for sharing your talent!
Thank you - I saw your photo, you must be so proud. My mother had hoped I'd be a dancer but I was born klutzy so it didn't really work out. I hope you do try your own version to honor her!
Thank you for sharing your beautiful work and providing so much inspiration! I am looking forward to seeing the progress on your band sampler, it reminds me of a piece I got from a class I took with Sharon Cohen many years ago. I need to get that out! The linen is gorgeous and the berry is as well. Congrats on hitting the 7000 mark!!
Do! Band samplers are really engaging stitching - I'm really enjoying putting Britomart together stitch by stitch
Congrats Kaie. WOW. Love your new sampler. I am interested in Chart and Linen. I too am a legacy linen lover. It is my absolute favorite.!!!
