When I was a little girl, my mother would assemble a travel bag for me for long, cross-country car trips. I wasn’t able to dig into the bag until we pulled out of the driveway. By the time the back two tires touched the street, I had opened the bag and thrown everything all over the backseat. New crayons, coloring books, math workbooks (young nerd), car games, stickers, colorforms (remember those?), and snacks. I was so excited! I think I might do the same for my special starts - wrap up a gift box with my pattern, fabric, threads, a new needleminder, project bag, and a special snack. Then I won’t allow myself to open it until that day. What a fun way to make it even more special!
Oh my goodness! I love that story so much!!!!! And yes to Colorforms!!!!!!!!!!!! Loved those. Also loved coloring books and crayons and workbooks (not Math though!). And great idea about the gift box for special starts!!!!!!! I need to give that some thought!! Thank you!
Colorforms were a wonderful treat! When I was between 2nd and 3rd grade, my family took a driving vacation to Florida (from upstate NY). We took my grandparents' station wagon, and my mom set the back up for my sister and I with sleeping bags and treats - snacks and new puzzle books, coloring books, etc. She had made small packages and designated them for specific days of the trip. We had so much fun that we didn't realize how long we were in the car! I love the idea of doing this with a special start...
Hi! I was so delighted with your story, and also delighted with what all the ladies commented here…what a great idea! And, I loved Colorforms, too!!! Thanks, y’all! 🥰 Meline
My 2 favorite, spectacular women. Wonderful floss tube packed with lots and lots of updates and tons of love. Thank you for your time and brightening my week. Love ya both.
Thank you for your wonderful and creative video!! You always send good stitchy vibes our way and love every minute of it!! Laura have a good trip, and we'll see you both in a few weeks❤️
Another winner FT with plenty of fun. Brenda your framed Sampler is Gorgeous!!! Great Wips and haul to inspire. Great news that you can attend your retreat - safe travels and a boatload of happiness. Enjoy your special time with your mom Laura with lots of button making. Lori Holts were an H & H -genius!!!
Brenda I'm so happy your last treatment is right around the corner!! I hope you have just the very best time at the retreat with Brenda Gervais! Can't wait to see what she designs for all of you. 💔 Laura, I hope the trip with your mom is over the top best trip ever! Looking forward to seeing all the buttons you'll be making! What beautiful stitchy kindness you both recieved!! You both are such a blessing to this stitching community! You just give us all so much joy and get us " hepped" about stitching! I have been to the Hobbyhouse Needlework shop. It is a beautiful place! The owners are super sweet and very welcoming and helpful. Pittsford NY where the shop is, is a beautiful little town. You would just love it!! I'm planning a stop there in November ( I have to inform the husband we must go there) on our way to Buffalo to spend Thanksgiving with our kids and grandkids. I ordered the new HATS exclusive from there too!! I'll also be stitching the one for Laura's birthday .Can't wait to start it. Happy Stitching and safe travels ❤ 😊
LOL... Sitting in a hotel room with fabric and stitching is my kind of living it up too! Brenda... I know you had a great time in Amana... It's on my bucket list! I can't wait to hear all about your trip. Love you ladies!
Best wishes for that last treatment. You are both still in my prayers. Enjoy your separate adventures and making buttons. Those fabric scraps are quite a special gift!! Will be looking forward to your next video. :-)
It’s always so wonderful to stitch along while you ladies celebrate your stitching, but really what you’re celebrating is a great friendship. It’s a joy to watch. Brenda, safe travels & enjoy Amana. Laura, enjoy every minute with your mom. She sounds like a hoot.
I love your flosstube. I had to pause the video to go check out the pattern. Then a pause again for button covering supplies. Yipes! Have a wonderful retreat and road trip. Be safe!
Ladies - I've stitched for 40+ years, I'm new to Flosstube and so happy to have found your channel. I have parrots including an African Grey and when I saw Elizabeth Eyles I didn't hesitate to purchase the chart. That stylized gray bird is fabulous! Laura, your birthday SAL is the first I've ever participated in and I'm excited. If you haven't already, please watch Lori Holt's recent Flosstube where she stitches sampler motifs and makes them into buttons, amazing. I'm so grateful for your sharing hearts!
Thank you Gwen!!!!!!! So happy you found floss tube!!!!!! It is so much fun to stitch and watch people talk about stitching. So happy you want to participate in the SAL!!!! It will be so amazing and I am so honored!!!!! You had to stitch Elizabeth since you have parrots!!!
Another wonderful video. Just not enough hours in a day to get all the stitching done! Brenda, glad you are so close to being done with treatments. You look amazing. Have a great time at the retreat. I visited Amanda years ago with friends and have fond memories of that trip. Laura, enjoy your vacation with your mother. My mother passed away this past July and am missing her so much. So blessed she lived to be 90, but wish everyday that I could sit and visit with her again. You both will be making wonderful memories on your trips. Again, thank you so much for these videos. I thoroughly enjoy them and look forward each one.
Lovely to see you both ladies. As usual your video is wonderful. You deserve all of the lovely gifts you received and they truly are gorgeous. No wonder you could find things with all that you had to show. Your time is truly appreciated, love and blessings xx
Thank you for such a fun pack filled you tube.You two are the best..Enjoy your little mini vaca. Can't wait to hear all about it..Take care and be safe.
You ladies bring me such happiness, as I am a widow but do keep busy with stitching, watching flosstube, taking organ lessons for almost 5 yrs. Use to drive truck with my late husband and made 2 runs a week to Chicago or the town if Shamburgh to load motorcycles.
Your videos are so much fun to watch! And you’ve gotten me on the button train, love button jars, button boxes, any buttons. Thanks for sharing lori’s button jar with us all.
BUTTONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That reminds me of that chart that is in a BBD book....Button Box...have to look for it! Thanks Susan!!!
Laura, when you were taking all the goodies out of your bag I was reminded of Mary Poppins and her magical bag. Another great video. Good luck Brenda on your last chemo. You are looking well. xx Anne in UK
Awesome video Ladies. Brenda, so glad to hear you are doing well and will be able to go to the retreat. Laura, have fun with your mom on vacation. Stay safe and happy travels 💞
My watching you guys was a little bit yesterday & in bits & chunks today but it was still SO GREAT! Hope you each have fun on your trips but I may be in Brenda & Laura withdrawal by Halloween! Thank you for sharing with all of us. I really have no words! Prayers for you Brenda as you finish your treatments. And many blessings for each of you!
Who knew - one could use 2 strands of silk for 2 over 2? I learned something new today. Thanks ladies! I love your consult’s - it’s so fun to listen to you two discuss pros and cons of the project. 🤗
Yay!!!!! I am going to get to meet Brenda in Amana!!!! How could life get any better, I ask???!!!! Only if Laura were going to be there, too!! I am soooooo excited!!! Safe travels to both of you and Nancy, too. Oh, the places we will go and the people we will meet!!! Eeeeeeeeek! H & H!!! Happy stitching!! 🍁🍂🍁🍂🍁🍂🥳🥳🥳🎉🎉🎉🎉🧵🪡💕💕💕
So enjoyed your video. I'm glad to hear that Brenda is down for the count in treatment. Enjoy the upcoming adventures each has planned. Will be looking forward to hearing about them all!! You both are an asset to the stitching community!!🥰❤🥰
Hi Brenda and Laura, loved spending some time with you today. I always enjoy seeing what you’ve both been stitching and buying 🤣. You make me laugh and smile. Almost spat my drink out when you told Laura you’d take the chart off her to stop her starting it!! Love it! Happy stitching!
Loved this video.. so much laughter. Also GO BLUE and I agree that night game really ~hepped~ me up way past bed time :D Have so much fun with Brenda Gervais Brenda!!!!!! She is my favorite designer.
Thank you SO much for this long video! I've been in a funk lately and your wonderfulness was just the medicine I needed. Sending you both virtual hugs and wishing you a wonderful October full of stitching and friendship. Safe travels on your adventures!! Hugs from NE Ohio.
What a fantastic video. I don’t even remember everything I wanted to comment on! And your gifts are just amazingly over the top! Wow. Brenda thankful you are almost done treatments and prayers all tests turn out healthy. Hugs guys!
Okay, you talked me into my third sampler (Jane Hopkins). I am currently working on Lady Liberty (first Blackbird) and G.Leger 1898. October is special ... it's my birthday month. Next year I will have a "bigger" birthday-65! I enjoy you both so much!!! Thank you!
You two are great!!! Love every minute you share with us. I relate to your excitement in collecting and stitching in every way. Problem is I do this in quilting and knitting too! Yikes…. I must live to a very old age. 🙄😅😊 I will miss you two in the next 3 weeks but hope you have a marvelous time!!!
I just want to thank you Brenda for your comments about using Soie 100. on 32 count. When I purchased the pattern Jane Hopkins I knew I wanted to try that thread but unbeknownst to me, that thread was normally used on 36 ct and higher linen. I purchased the kit of threads from the Attic and then found out that I may have made a mistake. Your emphatic thoughts on the subject made me feel better about my choice. Thank you and I really enjoy watching you and Laura. I am inspired by your stitching and your courage.
Isn't it great when Brenda can make you feel better about a stitching choice???? It really really helps! Thanks for letting us know Barbara! Have fun with that silk!!
I enjoy watching you two so much. I will not answer the phone or anything else when I watch. I love the way you share your laughter, joy and sorrow with us and your stitching knowledge, thank you.
Love you ladies you bring me joy beautiful stitching I've ordered the Elizabeth Eyles so can't wait to start in the new year xx great news that you have a date for your chemo xx I would love to send you ladies some floss drops
Brenda and Laura I love you two gals for the friendship that you both share. I am always thrilled to watch your videos. I always take notes and this video alone I found myself going down at least 10 different rabbit holes! It is like what Laura said "free for all in my head" :-D Holy cow!! Brenda prayers to you that things will keep going well for you. I so enjoy you both so much. You both are such a great inspiration to me. God bless you both. Happy Stitching ;)
I swear that I need to watch you two ONLY when I have a pad of paper next to me. I guess I need to watch again. 🤷🏻♀️ Brenda, I’m putting it in my calendar, OCT 19th, I will get out my “Consider the Lilies” and be praying for you while I stitch. 💕
Brenda the button maker ! Laura has shared and you have responded! Love how you two make it work! Excited about how well you look girls and how positive you remain Brenda. One more treatment! Love all the new starts and sals! I had planned for both JHopkins and ElizEyles.....cherub border drew me in! Sis is working on Lilies and I’m packed and ready but the Chase is needing some love! Continue to inspire us. Swywwyw!!!
It is wonderful to see you two drowning in love and appreciation from so many folks who are fans and supporters of you both!! Thank you for all you give to us!!! 😘😘😘😘
Ok girls you both made my night. I am the hospital with severe C H F. Wishing I was home stitching and you both got me laughing so hard it brought my spirits up. Thank you for all you do. Love you both and prayers to you always.
We hope you get better and are discharged home ASAP Pamela!!!!!!!!!!!!! We are sending lots of love and hope you will be stitching in no time. Thank you for watching!! Hugs!!!!!!!!!!
My first time here. This was so inspirational since I do not have any communication in person where I live. I am 50 miles from Attic and I have only been there three times. Such gorgeous things. My friend from Spokane Wa turned me on to you. What a delight. Thank you so much. You will be a regular to go to. Was needing a major distraction from the Geopolitical junk. Thank you thank you. From Surprise Az
Thanks for bringing such joy with every flosstube. I hope you both have such fun trips. It will be so exciting to see what you bring home from the retreats. I will have to figure out how to work on multiple page projects, like the hands across the sea samplers. They look beautiful and the spiral binding looks like a good idea. But I’ve just taped the pieces of the charts together in the past and that doesn’t seem to be the best way to use the charts. I’ll have to do some research on that.
I love you two ladies! You brought a tear to my eye! Have fab trips and laugh every minute! Love from Alison Jones from Shropshire! Laura I love how you say Shropshire!
Hi Alison!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do I say it correctly? Or do I just say it in a way that is funny??? I wish I was over there in Shropshire right this very minute!!! Hugs!!!!!!!! I am taking my Shropshire bag with me on my road trip!!!
I sure love spending time with you ladies! I love everything you showed - FFO’s, WIPs, immediate radar charts, stash, gifts, just all of it! It’s such a joyful time. Have fun on your trips and I’ll see you on Halloween! ❤️😁
You guys just spread joy!!!! Thanks as always! Brenda, have an amazing time at Amana and how exciting that you will get to meet Brenda Gervais!! Laura, have a fabulous time with your mom - precious, precious time!! Take care and see you in three weeks!
Hi ladies! I so enjoy your videos, so much eye candy! Laura, I will be at weekend A of Stitch-Con, and can’t wait to meet you! Brenda, hope your last treatment goes well and your numbers will all be good! Have a great time on your trips ladies! The little pillows you both received were so on point,Tab for Laura, and 5 cent consults for Brenda! I just love you both!

Hope you can get back to the Attic soon!!!! 50 miles? I think I would want to go once a week!
Thanks for bringing such joy with every flosstube. I hope you both have such fun trips. It will be so exciting to see what you bring home from the retreats. I will have to figure out how to work on multiple page projects, like the hands across the sea samplers. They look beautiful and the spiral binding looks like a good idea. But I’ve just taped the pieces of the charts together in the past and that doesn’t seem to be the best way to use the charts. I’ll have to do some research on that.
Thank you Kathy!!!!!! It takes some getting used to, but most charts have a shaded overlap that helps with placement from page to page......
As always good video! Brenda glad your treatments are almost done. Love the berries in the berry club. I am in the next one.
Thank you Darleen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Glad you are getting in the berry business!
I love you two ladies! You brought a tear to my eye! Have fab trips and laugh every minute! Love from Alison Jones from Shropshire! Laura I love how you say Shropshire!
