Love the haircut Laura and your finish is beautiful Brenda. You ladies make me so happy with your joy of stitching, your encouragement and the great attitude you both have. I am now jonesin for some 37ct Legacy linen.
You darling ladies are truly a bright light in this crazy world! Thank you for taking the time to share your friendship, your laughter, and your stitching with us. I have yet to make it through one of your videos without pausing to order something that you have shown. This week, I followed the law and ordered the sticker book!
Thanks so much for your very kind words Carolyn!!! So glad you are law abiding and got the sticker book!!! You will have a lot of fun with it. Happy Stitching!
I found you guys about 3 weeks ago & I am LOVING your videos!!! I have been binge watching to catch up & pages & pages of notes & must have! You are both so much fun! So jealous of all your bags! Thank you for what you have sharing.
Thank you so much Lois!!!!!! So glad you are getting lots of ideas for things to stitch!!!! We sure are lucky in the project bag department!!!! You should start a collection too!!! Happy Stitching!
I love you two. This video is may favorite so far. I'm a little jealous of your stitching friendship, but I feel fortunate to be able to be a little part of it with your videos. You are encouraging for this lone stitcher. Thanks.
Thank you so much Alice! What part of the country do you live in? Are you near a shop that you might go to a stitching night (hopefully soon in the future)? That is the good thing about floss tube...you feel like you are stitching with others. Sending you a big hug!!! Happy Stitching!!
You two beauties make me smile and enrich my life ! I wish you lived closer so that I could learn from you in person how to improve my stitching 🧵 and learn new stitches ! Thank you for all the goodness you share ! Becca
Ladies, you two are always a treat to watch. Brenda, I love your purchasing power. You are fearless; we MUST buy all the things. Laura, I love the new "do" perfect for Summer. Your WIP of Mrs. Pearson on the larger count fabric would be really cute turned into a pin cushion. Also, I saw someone stitching Santa and Mrs. Clause(Stitching with the Housewives) on the neutral fabric with the little white dots; I think it is by Zweigart. Looked cute. See ya next time.
Oh my gosh Brenda! You had some ladies clutching their pearls when you said you put all those magazines in recycling! 😆 You two are the best and so entertaining- I love your friendship, your stitching and your enabling us to pursue our stitchy happiness! ❤️
You ladies are always such fun to watch. So happy to see the shout out to Michelle at Under the Woolen Willow for her tomatoes. She’s the cousin of a good friend and does beautiful work!
Hello girls, only just got a chance to watch your video, always lovely to see you both, and Laura your hair looks amazing. Both of your stitches are absolutely gorgeous as always. I’ve been busy doing patchwork and xstitching Huckleberry farm, I love it. Love you girls xxxx
Your videos are terrific...you never fail to make me ohhh and ahhh over all your stitchy stuff and I always have a smile on my face while watching you. Your haircut is so cute Laura! TFS
Brenda I want to thank you for suggesting ordering from Hobby House Needleworks. I placed an order yesterday and they shipped it today. Thanks again. Happy stitching ladies. I look forward to your videos every two weeks.
Thanks so much Tammy!! Glad you ordered from a brick and mortar.....I (Laura) need to place an order with them also to show my support. Happy Stitching to you too!!!
Love you ladies and the videos are great. Such a nice friendship. I can so relate to Brenda and the Cross Stitch magazines. I just did the same thing. I took out the patterns I wanted or kept the magazine that had most of what i liked and sent the rest to recycling. I agree, as well, the early magazines were the best.
I absolutely love how you mentioned taking your Needlework Press book to a retreat to have them sign! I am going to do that someday. How fun is that!!! What an awesome memory to look back on. Elizabeth Furniss looks amazing so far Laura. And your almost finish Brenda is just fantastic. I’m off to go find the 2005 edition of the Sampler Needlework magazine on my CD. You’re so right Laura, CD’s suck. Lol. Love ya both Xxoo
Thanks so much Stacy!!!!! I hope that the retreat you bring your NWP book to is one that I am at so I can sign your book and you can sign mine!!!! I wish there was a little elf who could bring us the entire print run of those magazines!!!! An elf that did not believe in recycling those particular magazines!!!! Hugs!!
Brenda your O Joyous Day is gorgeous!!!!!! Laura great progress on Elizabeth Furniss, she is beautiful!!!! Brenda your vintage stitches are stunning!!! Wonderful haul Brenda, loved those tomatoes!!!! Happy stitching and hugs, Lynn
I wait every other Sunday morning for your video to show up! So enjoy your camaraderie together and your humor. Love your stitching too. Keep your wonderful videos coming.
So nice to see your faces and all the talk about that sticker book! Brenda, your cuckoo clock cracks me up!! Can’t wait to see your summer’s jubilee and start everything Laura!!! ❤️❤️
Hi Ladies! Thank you for another wonderful video. Please don’t apologize for spending time determining fabric choices for projects. I consider your discussions so interesting and learn something new with every video. Laura, love the haircut. After tax season, Brenda, you deserve your wonderful haul! See you in 2 weeks. 💕
Thanks so much Bunny!!!! It helps to have your comments about what you like. We shall do more consults in the coming videos. I almost always have something to consult with Brenda about. Hugs!!!
Enjoy your videos, each and every one. Laura, love your Rolling Bay tee shirt; great yellow. Cute haircut too. Brenda, fun to hear Oh Joyous Day was a favorite stitch. Have a great couple of weeks.
Hello Ladies! I'm going through a tough time right now and I wanted to tell you that your podcasts make me smile and help me forget myself for a while. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Oh thank you so much for telling us that Geri! I hope that your tough time is very short lived and things get better for you ASAP. We are sending you lots of hugs and hoping that stitching is helping you feel better too!!!!!! Hang in there for better days ahead.
I have just found your channel. I love you two. I relate totally!!! Only I do this with cross-stitching, quilting, knitting, crocheting etc. I want to do it all and there is not enough hours in the day 😏. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you Elaine!!! You sound like you are us on steroids!!!!!!! And you are correct...there are not enough hours in the day!!! We need some extra crafting hours!
Thanks ladies. It's always a pleasure to sit and join your fun and enthusiastic banter. Stickers are awesome, Google scrapbooking stickers and open Pandora's Box. Enjoy❤️
Poor Laura will never be the same after Brenda told her about dumping those magazines! Love every minute of your video!!! Thanks for sharing!!! Have a great week! Love you two!
Great video! I too have given away some cross stitch magazines, at the urging of my oldest daughter! I did go through & make copies of the things I liked though! You both are so fun to listen to! I love the book of stickers!
I love you guys - so fun to watch and listen - always encouraging and uplifting. Thanks for sharing your many talents and beautiful beautiful pieces - truly amazing!!! Deana
I bought the sticker book and I love it. So many different kind of stickers and it just adds more fun to our lives😃. I look forward to your floss tube. You make us all happy 😆 wish you could be on weekly🤗. Thank you so much!!
Thanks so much Johna!!!!! I wish Brenda and I lived closer to each other and then we would be doing a weekly floss tube I bet. But thankfully we figured out the technology to even be able to do floss tubes! That was hurdle number one! Until next time, happy stitching!!!!
Thanks Michelle!! I think it is a big short, but I got more bang for my buck this way...no need to get another haircut for several months! and that story was very disturbing!!! I wish I had that tote of magazines right this minute!
I always follow the Law....so I went to Amazon and ordered the sticker book..thanks ladies!! Loved everything you are working on and Brenda, your BBD finish is just gorgeous!!😊❤
Wish I was stitching 🧵 house work seems to be my watch time. Love all you show you guys are great look at all that stitching And purchasing :-) I’ll have to get my sewing club book out I purchased it but haven’t really looked through it yet! looks like it has some amazing things to start! Now I’m curious I’m going to have to try and make some of those bags Brenda. those look amazing all patchworked together. I’d love to see your pic of all your project bags too! Sounds like a big haul.
Thanks Lynda! We hope that you had some stitching time after cleaning. Brenda is good like that. She cleans first and then stitches. I just stitch. Naughty!!!
You two have really broadened my stitching repertoire! Now I suddenly want to stitch samplers. I called Inspired Needle and ordered the chart, fabric, and silks for Ellen Strick. I’ve never used silks! I also called and signed up for the virtual retreat in September at Sassy Jacks. You sneaky enablers!
That is so exciting!!!!!!! And Ellen Strick is such a beautiful sampler!!! and thanks for ordering from Inspired Needle!!! That all means the world to us!!! and the virtual retreat will be so much fun for you!!!! Wooohooo!!!!!
Fell in love with Be Kind and Be True. Bought it today, it’s going in the que, loved, loved loved it. Can’t wait to stitch it. You’re both fabulous and a treasured part of my week.
Thank you so much Laurie!!! Mine came in the mail today and I am hepped up! Going to see if I have some of the DMC at home. Thank you for your kind words! Hugs!!!
I 💗 your videos! Laura’s reactions to Brenda recycling her old magazines was priceless! Thank you for the inspiration, I just ordered the Antiquarian sticker book. I have some pretty journals that I have not used and decided to turn them into crafting journals 😉.
Thank you Denise!!! So glad you are getting the sticker book and that you are going to use them in crafting journals! They will inspire you for sure!!!!
Thanks for reminding me of that Fair Lady Sampler. I love that one. And Joyous Day. Sigh..... Such. a pleasure -- getting to watch you ladies is like getting together with friends!
Lovely watching both of you! Love the new haircut and you'd me bursting out in laughter on your thank you for your service comment!!!! I'm watching you on a Monday and I think its going to be a great start for my week!! Happy stitching!
Oh my goodness, you guys are just the best!!! Oh Joyous Day is gorgeous Brenda! Charlotte Frost is indeed a perfect sampler Laura and Elizabeth Furniss is stunning! Brenda, I don't think it matters what info you put in each block for AOTH. It is such a fun stitch. Thanks for sharing all the stitchy goodness! Have a great couple weeks and happy stitching!
Love your videos. I live in central Illinois - about 40 miles west of Urbana - and every week I think I wish I could meet those girls! Kudos to both of you for using your stickers. I’ve had that book for months and haven’t used any. I have a lot of others I use though. So much fun! Have a great week!
Thanks Cindy!!! Maybe someday when we can travel freely again we can meet up! You could come up to Inspired Needle for an afternoon! We need more sticker books so if you have any recommendations please let us know. Happy Stitching!!!
Brenda and the Serial Starter I would love that! I use a lot of scrapbook stickers that come in 12” sheets. Happy Planner has themed books and all the craft stores sell those.
Love watching you ladies. I needed to share with someone and I knew you both would understand. I am sitting here stitching a Lizzie Kate Christmas pattern on 32 count. I have always stitched on Aida and I am so excited to be using evenweave 😊 looking forward to your next Flosstube xx
@@brendaandtheserialstarter2410 hi. The fabric is so soft and not as bad as I thought it would be. Yes they are lovely. Doing Dear Santa, I've Been Good. Thought a small thing to start and then work my way up to some of the beautiful sampler you ladies create. Stay safe xx
Another great video! You gals make me chuckle, you're my favorite "tubers"! I too cringed when Brenda said she threw those magazines into recycling. GASP! Love all of your projects, you enable me.......... a lot. LOL Marilyn. P.S. Marianne Meyer of Midnight Stitching is my best friend!
Thanks so much Marilyn!!!!!! I am so glad to know that you know Marianne!!!! Is she still selling her charts? I would really love to show that one that I have a lot more. I think I have another one too and I think I corresponded with her years ago and remember that she was a very special and nice person. Please tell her that I am thinking of her. Glad we could be of assistance with the enabling!!! Hugs and happy stitching!!!!!
"I'm happy to, I just want to make fun of you." I say this to my aunt occasionally. "What kind of psychotic break did you have?" I spit out my Tang at this point. I just love y'all. And Brenda's over there all calm, having made her peace with the past while Laura is reduced to a twitching jelly. This is what friendship is about. LOL. Also, I will be deeply disappointed to have an episode in which the cuckoo clock does not interrupt one of you. This week's interruption was classic. I tell ya, that little bird has a sense of humor. Just FYI Dover Publications has smaller books of similarly styled stickers. It's not a gorgeous encyclopedia like the Antiquarian Sticker Book, but there are some fun themes. I missed your smiling faces last weekend (I got spoiled with the every week flosstubes) but the fun banter and just watching y'all together was well worth the wait. HUGS
Thank you so much Linda for your very accurate synopsis!!!! Loved reading it!!!!! I will check out the Dover books stat. I remember those little sticker books at tourist gift shops in the past! What fun comments you left. And we are both loving our night lights!!!!!! They are works of art. Sending you lots of love!!!!!
I love having Monday morning breakfast with you two!! I don’t think any country should try and remove certain parts of their histories - there are always horrendous episodes that we want to shy away from. But we need to be realistic and properly informed about them. And swear that we will change and the horrors will not happen again 😢
Thank you for the video! Marching orders...oh my! 😃 love all of your stitching. I received my order from Seraphim fabrics...thank you so much for the info...it’s beautiful fabric! Have a great few weeks. Happy stitching 🧵
I had to pause the video to run and buy the Oh Joyous Day pattern and floss, I don't know why I had held out so long on buying it! Seeing that rainbow alphabet up close just really kicked it over the top for me. Such a beautiful finish Brenda!
Isn't it amazing Elizabeth!!! I really need to get on that one too. Seeing it in person yesterday was quite a moment. It is so beautiful!!!!! Glad you got the chart and floss!!!
Brenda I liked the Christmas Quaker you showed...that I bought the thread pack twice from FQS! Time to start stitching it❤️Thanks for being such good company while I stitch!
Hi ladies I so enjoy your floss tubes. I purchased the sticker book from Amazon based on your recommendation on your last floss tube. It’s gorgeous just like all your stitching. Laura your hair cut is lovely! Thank you for the info on Legacy Linen. I want to try higher count fabrics but the uneven threads that many have was holding me back. I am looking forward to Brenda’s framed piece reveal next time.😊
Thanks Marjorie!!! I think you will really like the Legacy linen!!! It is a dream to stitch on!!! Glad you got the sticker book!! Thank you for your compliment on my hair cut. It was really a short cut that I was not expecting! But it will grow back some and will save me from going to the beauty shop for quite some time! Keep us posted on the Legacy linen!!!
Finally I have a new phone and I can comment now! Ladies, your videos are a bright spot during these difficult times. I thoroughly enjoy them. Thank you Laura for the shout out to my dear friend Lianne @1897 Schoolhouse Samplers. I am so excited for her and for all of you to see all her lovely sampler reproductions. She is a lovely lady!
Thank you Lynn!!! We had the great good fortune to meet Lianne at the Dyeing to Stitch retreat several years ago when she brought her BBD finishes and made us all green with envy!!!! And now her reproduction samplers!!!!! I cannot wait to get my hands on the next batch and the upcoming Fanny Servant!!!!!! I am hepped up!
It's both of the Fanny repros I've been waiting for!! I've also seen her stack of samplers yet to be reproduced. Incredible! She lives 25 min from my place and we stitch together when we can.
OK, I have to confess, I paused your Flosstube, went to Amazon, ordered the stickerbook, then came back! In this light you both look soft and 10 years younger! I started keeping track of things in my Book of Days, looking forward to seeing stickers! See you next time!
Okay, that lighting stays!!!!!! Hah!!! Glad you got the sticker book!!!!!!! It is so much fun and glad you are keeping up with your Book of Days Desiree!!! Isn't it fun???
Laura, love the new do!! Pixie suits you! Super cute! So much great stuff this week. Highlight of my day. Consults, a H&H and so many samplers. Wonderful! Thanks ladies!
What a fun video!!! So wonderful to see a great friendship - stitchey goodness and consultations happening and getting a cuckoo at the right moment . Nothing better than that . Laura love your hair and Brenda cannot wait to see your framed goodness. Have a awesome stitchey week
Thank you girls for starting my Monday off with a smile! Love your summer do Laura! It’s 100 degrees here and I hope to stay in and stitch! Thx for sharing the antique sticker book. I ordered it weeks ago and loved using them with my collating. Thread drops is a super idea! Mardy and I are hoping for a getaway late August. Fingers crossed! Love O Joyous Day Brenda is stunning! Nothing wrong with changing things up a bit! Love to you both!
Thanks Angel!!!!! And the minute we can travel we are coming to visit Ann and Pat in Virginia Beach and hope to see you and your sister too!!!!! Glad you got the sticker book. It is so much fun!!! We love all of the projects you have been working on too!!!
Oh my goodness ladies thank you so much for the lovely shout out about my sampler!!!♥️♥️Always look forward to your Sunday videos,imagine my surprise when I heard my name 🤗I can’t wait to see how Laura kits up her pattern.Love and happy stitching,Melissa
Thanks Melissa!!!! My chart came yesterday!!!!! I am going to see if I have the DMC to start it...otherwise I will get them ASAP. Your finish of this was just amazing!!!! Hugs!!!!!!!!
Ok... I lost it when Laura was digging in her purse ... out comes the wallet, the checkbook, on and on... it’s just so typical of how everything we seem to need is at the bottom of the purse! Loved the ideas too from the consults... You 2 are a pair and we all love your videos!!
Thanks Faye!!! I know!! That purse digging is a daily occurrence....especially when looking for keys!!! Maybe I should just carry the contents of my purse in a big Vera Bradley stitching bag....I could see everything at a glance that way!
I know!!! The relief of the dismissal of some satin stitches is wonderful!!! That is what I (Laura) will do when I stitch it. Thanks for watching Denise!
Always so nice to spend time with you two. I get my tea ready, make sure my ear buds are charged up, grab my pen and pad, and smile the night away. Thank you ladies for your encouragement and positivity. Oh, and I did buy the sticker book and it’s phenomenal. Just ask my 3 year old granddaughter who needed several stickers to make a story on paper. Have a good couple of weeks. Blessings and take care.
Thanks so much Kristin!!! So glad you had the sticker book that your granddaughter could use!!! She can play with any of the stickers you don't like so much. Thank you for your description of watching us...that sounds like fun....and I cannot believe that it is us that you are watching. We appreciate it so much!!!
Thanks so much Tracy!!!!! If only Brenda and I lived closer...then I bet we could do them weekly, but we will have to get used to this schedule again. In the meantime, just keep stitching and stitching and watching all the great floss tubes that are out there!! Hugs!
I LOVE consults! So fun to watch! I was yelling YES to Chai!! And, the cherry on top of the FUN Sunday (Sundae?🥰) is the AMAZING Cuckoo Clock! Thank you ladies! 😊💖
As usual, I really enjoyed watching you two while I sat and stitched this afternoon. Brenda, I don't know how you will decide between all the Blackbirds, but whichever you choose will be a joy to stitch on I'm sure. I like Laura's idea of a Start - a - long - I'm not very good at SALs usually, but that I might be able to handle! Happy stitching!
Thanks Kim!!! Yes, starting things with other people works well for us...we just cannot keep up the pace to finish a long with others! Please join us in any start a longs that strike your fancy!!
Great to see you Brenda and Laura! I really enjoyed this video and seeing all of your stitching and haul. I have Winifred Glarke and think I will start her next. Love that cuckoo clock! So funny! I hope you have a great week and can't wait to see you both again. Hugs and Happy Stitching! Pam Miller
Lovely to see you both and all your beautiful needlework again this week . Brenda made me laugh with the work time photo copying, I have done that myself many times Karen R 💕
Oh, such fun. You two lovely ladies are a much needed tonic! Beautiful work, as always by you both. I have been encouraging my sister to watch Flosstube and today she exclaimed "OMG, why didn't you tell me about these two girls!" I smiled inwardly 🤣😍❤
Thank you for all the fun :) I ordered from Cross Stitcher, I am not sure I went "Ape" but it sure is cute lol I wish there were more stitchers in Canada...I stitch alone and would love a Stitcher Friend!!
Brenda and the Serial Starter No, there is not a local needlework store 😟 I will keep searching for a friend lol....my husband suddenly goes deaf if I talk about any craft stuff 🤣
Love love this video as usual! Brenda your story about throwing away all the magazines was the most disturbing thing ever LOL!!! I love all the stickers and bits of ephemera - there is an Etsy store called ‘Altered Artifacts’ who sell PDF sheets of cool old things - I’ve bought from them and made little thread cards etc xxxx Reecie
Thank you Reecie!!!!!!! We love, love, love your videos!!!!! So much inspiration!!!! We will check out that Etsy store stat!!!! Hugs and happy stitching!!!!
Another fun video; love spending my Sunday evening watching the two of you over and over; I have to soak it all in!! LOL Brenda, I am also working on Oh Joyous Day and loving it, I am not as far along as you are because I have been jumping around stitching on lots of my favorites. I also plan to do the My Heart Can Rest in memory of my fraternal Grandmother who I was so close to. Looking forward to that. I loved seeing all of the things the two of you have been working on; such joy it adds to life. I need to call and order the American Chestnut fabric; so beautiful and I don't have any!! Scandalous!! LOL I love the new law and that everyone should be "stickering up"!! So fun. I had to pause the video and go to Country Stitches to buy the Be Kind pattern, just love it. I am also starting my Mrs. Pearson; fun, fun. I also have Noel started on dark fabric; I will try to pull it out soon and post it to Instagram so you can see it on the darker fabric; I love it. Hugs and happy stitching.........................
Thank you so much Pam!!!!!!! Did you get my DM about waiting for Carol to start Mrs. Pearson? If not, no problem we can all start in the next week or so. I am excited! Thanks for instigating this SAL/start-a-long. Yes, get some American Chestnut!!! It is amazing!!! Your Heart Can Rest piece is going to be amazing. Hugs!!!
Hi. Really enjoy watching you both Did call Inspired Needle, they are out of the calendar for this year. You both Inspired me to track my stitching. Will get on the list for next year Also ordered sticker book. Thanks for the inspiration
Thanks Eileen!! I just saw a sneak peak on Instagram from Needlework Press of one of the pages for next years calendar!! Get on the list for one so you don't forget. Glad you got the sticker book!!!! Happy Stitching!
@@brendaandtheserialstarter2410 talked to the girl who was working at Inspired Needle , she didn't know about taking orders for next year. She said she would leave note for owners. Going to try the Attic
@@eileenkrier3120 Okay, good idea! They may be able to contact Vickie from Needlework Press to see if she has any. I think she is going to have to make a bigger print run next year!!!
Did call the Attic they had this years calendar which they are sending out. Did place my name for next year. They are wonderful to work with. Never order from them before. They are now on my list for future ordering. Thanks for your suggestion.
Always fun to visit with you two! “Psychotic break”..... you cracked me right up! Love the stickers ladies. Your stitching, at whatever stage, is gorgeous. Love the consultations too, as I learn something as well! Continue to take good care 😘❤️ Rebecca
I think I watched almost every flosstuber and you are my top 1 . I’m watching you now as I stitch my first hand sewn dress.
Thank you for a lovely time in your stitchy world. Have a great week.
Thank you for watching Lynette!!! Hugs!
Brenda and Laura...you two are just lovely...thanks again❤️❤️
Thank you so very much Loretta!!!!! Hugs to you!
Love the haircut Laura and your finish is beautiful Brenda. You ladies make me so happy with your joy of stitching, your encouragement and the great attitude you both have. I am now jonesin for some 37ct Legacy linen.

Ladies, you two are always a treat to watch. Brenda, I love your purchasing power. You are fearless; we MUST buy all the things. Laura, I love the new "do" perfect for Summer.

Thanks so much!!! I am still clutching my pearls over that magazine recycling story. Yikes!!!!!
You ladies are always such fun to watch. So happy to see the shout out to Michelle at Under the Woolen Willow for her tomatoes. She’s the cousin of a good friend and does beautiful work!
Thank you Shelly!!! Yes, Michelle is amazing!!! Those tomatoes and everything in her Etsy shop are so wonderful!!!!!!

Love you ladies and the videos are great. Such a nice friendship. I can so relate to Brenda and the Cross Stitch magazines. I just did the same thing. I took out the patterns I wanted or kept the magazine that had most of what i liked and sent the rest to recycling. I agree, as well, the early magazines were the best.
Thanks so much!!! You did a good thing by keeping the patterns you wanted!!! Some people (!!!) just throw away the whole thing!!!
You bring me so much joy in many ways. Thank you! X
Thank you so much Judy! That is so kind of you to say!!!! Hugs!
I absolutely love how you mentioned taking your Needlework Press book to a retreat to have them sign! I am going to do that someday. How fun is that!!! What an awesome memory to look back on. Elizabeth Furniss looks amazing so far Laura. And your almost finish Brenda is just fantastic. I’m off to go find the 2005 edition of the Sampler Needlework magazine on my CD. You’re so right Laura, CD’s suck. Lol. Love ya both Xxoo
Thanks so much Stacy!!!!! I hope that the retreat you bring your NWP book to is one that I am at so I can sign your book and you can sign mine!!!! I wish there was a little elf who could bring us the entire print run of those magazines!!!! An elf that did not believe in recycling those particular magazines!!!! Hugs!!
Brenda your O Joyous Day is gorgeous!!!!!! Laura great progress on Elizabeth Furniss, she is beautiful!!!! Brenda your vintage stitches are stunning!!! Wonderful haul Brenda, loved those tomatoes!!!! Happy stitching and hugs, Lynn

Thanks Michelle!!!! You know I am starting everything!!! and we will be excited to show Brenda's finish!!!! Talk to you tonight!
I am going to go back and binge watch all of your episodes
Hi Ladies! Thank you for another wonderful video. Please don’t apologize for spending time determining fabric choices for projects. I consider your discussions so interesting and learn something new with every video. Laura, love the haircut. After tax season, Brenda, you deserve your wonderful haul! See you in 2 weeks. 💕
Thanks so much Bunny!!!! It helps to have your comments about what you like. We shall do more consults in the coming videos. I almost always have something to consult with Brenda about. Hugs!!!
Enjoy your videos, each and every one. Laura, love your Rolling Bay tee shirt; great yellow. Cute haircut too. Brenda, fun to hear Oh Joyous Day was a favorite stitch. Have a great couple of weeks.
Thanks so much Barbara!!!! Do you live near Rolling Bay??? I love that area so much I could just explode! Hugs and happy stitching to you!!!
Brenda and the Serial Starter Laura, I live south of Olympia but spent a lot of time on Bainbridge Island when my kids were little. Good memories!
Hello Ladies! I'm going through a tough time right now and I wanted to tell you that your podcasts make me smile and help me forget myself for a while. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Oh thank you so much for telling us that Geri! I hope that your tough time is very short lived and things get better for you ASAP. We are sending you lots of hugs and hoping that stitching is helping you feel better too!!!!!! Hang in there for better days ahead.
You ladies make my Sundays! Your videos renewed my interest in cross stitch...
Really??? That is so exciting Chris!!!!!! We are honored to have helped to renew your interest in stitching!! So thrilled! Thanks for letting us know.
Such beautiful things ❤️❤️Thanks for sharing
Thank you for watching Kay!!!!
I'm going to amend what you said...thank goodness we have stitching and stash...and Brenda and Laura! Love you two! :)
Thank you dear Valerie!!!! I hope that we are all at the Dyeing to Stitch next year!!! Won't we be beside ourselves with joy!!! Hugs to you!!!!
I have just found your channel. I love you two. I relate totally!!! Only I do this with cross-stitching, quilting, knitting, crocheting etc. I want to do it all and there is not enough hours in the day 😏. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you Elaine!!! You sound like you are us on steroids!!!!!!! And you are correct...there are not enough hours in the day!!! We need some extra crafting hours!
Thanks ladies. It's always a pleasure to sit and join your fun and enthusiastic banter. Stickers are awesome, Google scrapbooking stickers and open Pandora's Box. Enjoy❤️
Thanks so much Debbie!!! I am off to Google that right now!!!! oh boy..........
Love all your makes and those gorgeous project bags. I love listening to you both. So good you can be back together. Thanks. See you again soon
Thank you so much for your kind words Bridget!!!!
Poor Laura will never be the same after Brenda told her about dumping those magazines! Love every minute of your video!!! Thanks for sharing!!! Have a great week! Love you two!
Thanks so much Shelia!!! I am still in a state of mourning!!
I LOVE the Be Kind one....with the alphabet all over.....love it!
Isn't it darling!!!! I can't wait to start it!! Thanks Hanna!!!
Great video! I too have given away some cross stitch magazines, at the urging of my oldest daughter! I did go through & make copies of the things I liked though! You both are so fun to listen to! I love the book of stickers!
Thanks so much Dee!!! Glad you made copies of things from the magazines so you do not have to fully regret your decision!!!!
I love you guys - so fun to watch and listen - always encouraging and uplifting. Thanks for sharing your many talents and beautiful beautiful pieces - truly amazing!!! Deana
Thank you so much Deana!!!!! Happy Stitching to you!!!
Thank you for renewing my love of cross stitch! You two are a joy and inspiration! Love your haircut, Laura!
Thank you so much Linda!!!! We are so happy that you are back to loving stitching!!! That is so exciting and makes our hearts happy! Hugs!
I bought the sticker book and I love it. So many different kind of stickers and it just adds more fun to our lives😃. I look forward to your floss tube. You make us all happy 😆 wish you could be on weekly🤗. Thank you so much!!
Thanks so much Johna!!!!! I wish Brenda and I lived closer to each other and then we would be doing a weekly floss tube I bet. But thankfully we figured out the technology to even be able to do floss tubes! That was hurdle number one! Until next time, happy stitching!!!!
Laura you made me laugh when you told Brenda that, “that was a disturbing story” in reference to recycling her magazines!😂 Love your hair cut!
Thanks Michelle!! I think it is a big short, but I got more bang for my buck this way...no need to get another haircut for several months! and that story was very disturbing!!! I wish I had that tote of magazines right this minute!
Love the video, the two of you make me laugh. Both of your wips are beautiful. Happy stitching until next week.
Thank you Kathy!!!!! Hugs and Happy Stitching to you!!!!
Inspiration and fun all rolled into one! Appreciate you both.
Thank you so very much for your kind words!!!
You two look great and I love the way y’all entertain us with the love of stitching and samplers!
Thank you for your kind words Clara!!! Much appreciated!!
I was stitching while watching you ladies...😊🥰
Woohooo!!! Isn't it the best? Stitching and watching Floss Tube is my favorite thing! Happy Stitching!
I am just loving your videos! so glad I found you guys :)
I always follow the Law....so I went to Amazon and ordered the sticker book..thanks ladies!! Loved everything you are working on and Brenda, your BBD finish is just gorgeous!!😊❤
That is great that you ordered it! You will not be sorry!!! Thanks for watching and commenting Laura!!!
Wish I was stitching 🧵 house work seems to be my watch time. Love all you show you guys are great look at all that stitching And purchasing :-) I’ll have to get my sewing club book out I purchased it but haven’t really looked through it yet! looks like it has some amazing things to start! Now I’m curious I’m going to have to try and make some of those bags Brenda. those look amazing all patchworked together. I’d love to see your pic of all your project bags too! Sounds like a big haul.
Thanks Lynda! We hope that you had some stitching time after cleaning. Brenda is good like that. She cleans first and then stitches. I just stitch. Naughty!!!
Brenda and the Serial Starter haha yep that’s Naughty Laura but look what you have to show for it!!
Love you guys! Thanks so much
You two have really broadened my stitching repertoire! Now I suddenly want to stitch samplers. I called Inspired Needle and ordered the chart, fabric, and silks for Ellen Strick. I’ve never used silks! I also called and signed up for the virtual retreat in September at Sassy Jacks. You sneaky enablers!
That is so exciting!!!!!!! And Ellen Strick is such a beautiful sampler!!! and thanks for ordering from Inspired Needle!!! That all means the world to us!!! and the virtual retreat will be so much fun for you!!!! Wooohooo!!!!!
Fell in love with Be Kind and Be True. Bought it today, it’s going in the que, loved, loved loved it. Can’t wait to stitch it. You’re both fabulous and a treasured part of my week.
Thank you so much Laurie!!! Mine came in the mail today and I am hepped up! Going to see if I have some of the DMC at home. Thank you for your kind words! Hugs!!!
I 💗 your videos! Laura’s reactions to Brenda recycling her old magazines was priceless! Thank you for the inspiration, I just ordered the Antiquarian sticker book. I have some pretty journals that I have not used and decided to turn them into crafting journals 😉.
Thank you Denise!!! So glad you are getting the sticker book and that you are going to use them in crafting journals! They will inspire you for sure!!!!
Thanks for reminding me of that Fair Lady Sampler. I love that one. And Joyous Day. Sigh..... Such. a pleasure -- getting to watch you ladies is like getting together with friends!
Thank you Margaret!!!!!!! Hopefully someday we can get together in real life!!! Hugs!
Lovely watching both of you! Love the new haircut and you'd me bursting out in laughter on your thank you for your service comment!!!! I'm watching you on a Monday and I think its going to be a great start for my week!! Happy stitching!
Thanks so much Myna!!!!!!!! I am glad we provided a laugh or two! Happy Stitching this week to you!!
Oh my goodness, you guys are just the best!!! Oh Joyous Day is gorgeous Brenda! Charlotte Frost is indeed a perfect sampler Laura and Elizabeth Furniss is stunning! Brenda, I don't think it matters what info you put in each block for AOTH. It is such a fun stitch. Thanks for sharing all the stitchy goodness! Have a great couple weeks and happy stitching!
Thanks so much Wanda!!!!!!! We appreciate all of your kind comments! Hope you have some great stitching time too!
Love your videos. I live in central Illinois - about 40 miles west of Urbana - and every week I think I wish I could meet those girls! Kudos to both of you for using your stickers. I’ve had that book for months and haven’t used any. I have a lot of others I use though. So much fun! Have a great week!
Thanks Cindy!!! Maybe someday when we can travel freely again we can meet up! You could come up to Inspired Needle for an afternoon! We need more sticker books so if you have any recommendations please let us know. Happy Stitching!!!
Brenda and the Serial Starter I would love that! I use a lot of scrapbook stickers that come in 12” sheets. Happy Planner has themed books and all the craft stores sell those.
Love watching you ladies. I needed to share with someone and I knew you both would understand. I am sitting here stitching a Lizzie Kate Christmas pattern on 32 count. I have always stitched on Aida and I am so excited to be using evenweave 😊 looking forward to your next Flosstube xx
That is so exciting Chris!!!!! How do you like it???? Those LK Christmas patterns are so darling! Have fun!!!
@@brendaandtheserialstarter2410 hi. The fabric is so soft and not as bad as I thought it would be. Yes they are lovely. Doing Dear Santa, I've Been Good. Thought a small thing to start and then work my way up to some of the beautiful sampler you ladies create. Stay safe xx
Chris Brown sounds like a perfect one to start with Chris!!!
@@brendaandtheserialstarter2410 have to do Jolly July.
Laura love your new hairstyle. It looks great. Cheers to the cuckoo. His timing is impeccable!
Thanks so much Nancy!!!!
Another great video!
You gals make me chuckle, you're my favorite "tubers"!
I too cringed when Brenda said she threw those magazines into recycling. GASP!
Love all of your projects, you enable me.......... a lot. LOL
Marilyn.
P.S. Marianne Meyer of Midnight Stitching is my best friend!
Thanks so much Marilyn!!!!!! I am so glad to know that you know Marianne!!!! Is she still selling her charts? I would really love to show that one that I have a lot more. I think I have another one too and I think I corresponded with her years ago and remember that she was a very special and nice person. Please tell her that I am thinking of her. Glad we could be of assistance with the enabling!!! Hugs and happy stitching!!!!!
I will let her know. She will be thrilled!
Your videos are such a treat! xx
Thank you so much Rosie!!!!
What a fun video! Laughed and laughed. Loved all your projects. Perfect to watch while stitching on a sunny day in MN.
Thanks so much!!!!!!!! Glad you were stitching in the sun!!! Hugs!
You both look great today! Great haircut, Laura! I love seeing you both together again!
Thank you so much Kristi!!!! Sending you a big hug and wishes for a happy stitching week!!!!
"I'm happy to, I just want to make fun of you." I say this to my aunt occasionally.
"What kind of psychotic break did you have?" I spit out my Tang at this point. I just love y'all. And Brenda's over there all calm, having made her peace with the past while Laura is reduced to a twitching jelly. This is what friendship is about. LOL.
Also, I will be deeply disappointed to have an episode in which the cuckoo clock does not interrupt one of you. This week's interruption was classic. I tell ya, that little bird has a sense of humor. Just FYI Dover Publications has smaller books of similarly styled stickers. It's not a gorgeous encyclopedia like the Antiquarian Sticker Book, but there are some fun themes.
I missed your smiling faces last weekend (I got spoiled with the every week flosstubes) but the fun banter and just watching y'all together was well worth the wait. HUGS
Thank you so much Linda for your very accurate synopsis!!!! Loved reading it!!!!! I will check out the Dover books stat. I remember those little sticker books at tourist gift shops in the past! What fun comments you left. And we are both loving our night lights!!!!!! They are works of art. Sending you lots of love!!!!!
I love having Monday morning breakfast with you two!! I don’t think any country should try and remove certain parts of their histories - there are always horrendous episodes that we want to shy away from. But we need to be realistic and properly informed about them. And swear that we will change and the horrors will not happen again 😢
Thanks Eleanor!
Oh Joyous Day is beautiful, so glad I purchased. All the beautiful fabrics! So much inspiration, Jane and her 7.000 sister samplers are calling to me.
Thanks Betty!!! I am so glad you got Oh Joyous Day too!!!
Thank you for the video! Marching orders...oh my! 😃 love all of your stitching. I received my order from Seraphim fabrics...thank you so much for the info...it’s beautiful fabric! Have a great few weeks. Happy stitching 🧵
Thanks Diane!!! So glad you got some Seraphim fabric. It really is quite lovely!!!! Happy Stitching to you too!!!
I had to pause the video to run and buy the Oh Joyous Day pattern and floss, I don't know why I had held out so long on buying it! Seeing that rainbow alphabet up close just really kicked it over the top for me. Such a beautiful finish Brenda!
Isn't it amazing Elizabeth!!! I really need to get on that one too. Seeing it in person yesterday was quite a moment. It is so beautiful!!!!! Glad you got the chart and floss!!!
Brenda I liked the Christmas Quaker you showed...that I bought the thread pack twice from FQS! Time to start stitching it❤️Thanks for being such good company while I stitch!
Sharon, you can use that extra thread to stitch Christmas ornaments!! I hate when we buy things twice though!
Hi ladies I so enjoy your floss tubes. I purchased the sticker book from Amazon based on your recommendation on your last floss tube. It’s gorgeous just like all your stitching. Laura your hair cut is lovely! Thank you for the info on Legacy Linen. I want to try higher count fabrics but the uneven threads that many have was holding me back. I am looking forward to Brenda’s framed piece reveal next time.😊
Thanks Marjorie!!! I think you will really like the Legacy linen!!! It is a dream to stitch on!!! Glad you got the sticker book!! Thank you for your compliment on my hair cut. It was really a short cut that I was not expecting! But it will grow back some and will save me from going to the beauty shop for quite some time! Keep us posted on the Legacy linen!!!
Finally I have a new phone and I can comment now! Ladies, your videos are a bright spot during these difficult times. I thoroughly enjoy them. Thank you Laura for the shout out to my dear friend Lianne @1897 Schoolhouse Samplers. I am so excited for her and for all of you to see all her lovely sampler reproductions. She is a lovely lady!
Thank you Lynn!!! We had the great good fortune to meet Lianne at the Dyeing to Stitch retreat several years ago when she brought her BBD finishes and made us all green with envy!!!! And now her reproduction samplers!!!!! I cannot wait to get my hands on the next batch and the upcoming Fanny Servant!!!!!! I am hepped up!
It's both of the Fanny repros I've been waiting for!! I've also seen her stack of samplers yet to be reproduced. Incredible! She lives 25 min from my place and we stitch together when we can.
Always fun watching you two. I might have to get Winifred Clarke, so pretty. Stay well.
Thanks LB!!!! Yes, get Winifred!! She is so much fun!
OK, I have to confess, I paused your Flosstube, went to Amazon, ordered the stickerbook, then came back! In this light you both look soft and 10 years younger! I started keeping track of things in my Book of Days, looking forward to seeing stickers! See you next time!
Okay, that lighting stays!!!!!! Hah!!! Glad you got the sticker book!!!!!!! It is so much fun and glad you are keeping up with your Book of Days Desiree!!! Isn't it fun???
Laura, love the new do!! Pixie suits you! Super cute! So much great stuff this week. Highlight of my day. Consults, a H&H and so many samplers. Wonderful! Thanks ladies!
Thanks so much Kendra!!!!!! Happy Stitching to you!!!!
Great video.Glad to see you two together again. The two of you are such enablers. Can keep us all in the poor house. LOL Happy stitching.
Thank you Ruth!!!! Yes, we will all be in the poor house together with our stash!!!!!! We will be poor, but happy!!!
Thank you so much friends for giving me a shout out!!! I feel like such a celebrity!! 😉 You two always bring a smile to my Sunday. ❤️
Thank you for watching Celeste!!! And I sent you a DM on IG this morning about a project bag....just let me know if my request is reasonable. Hugs!!!!
Love your bags Celeste! How can I get one?
LOIS SCHUMACHER I sell them on my IG celestecreates_destash. I will add more soon
Yay!!! Can't wait!
What a fun video!!! So wonderful to see a great friendship - stitchey goodness and consultations happening and getting a cuckoo at the right moment . Nothing better than that . Laura love your hair and Brenda cannot wait to see your framed goodness. Have a awesome stitchey week
Thank you so much Linda!!!!!! We appreciate your sweet comments!!!! Hugs and happy stitching!!!
Thank you girls for starting my Monday off with a smile! Love your summer do Laura! It’s 100 degrees here and I hope to stay in and stitch! Thx for sharing the antique sticker book. I ordered it weeks ago and loved using them with my collating. Thread drops is a super idea! Mardy and I are hoping for a getaway late August. Fingers crossed! Love O Joyous Day Brenda is stunning! Nothing wrong with changing things up a bit! Love to you both!
Thanks Angel!!!!! And the minute we can travel we are coming to visit Ann and Pat in Virginia Beach and hope to see you and your sister too!!!!! Glad you got the sticker book. It is so much fun!!! We love all of the projects you have been working on too!!!
I was taking notes on what to order 😆 thank you so much for the laughs and enabling! Love the hair cut!!!! ❤
Thanks so much!!!!!!!!! We do love to enable each other and everyone else that we can!!! Hugs!
🤗 Always enjoy the visit ladies and that cuckoo clock goes off at the funniest moment!! Take care.
Thanks so much Carlene!!!! Isn't that cuckoo a pip?? So funny!
Always look forward to your videos. You make me laugh 💜💖
Thanks so much Suzane!!!!!! Happy Stitching!
Oh my goodness ladies thank you so much for the lovely shout out about my sampler!!!♥️♥️Always look forward to your Sunday videos,imagine my surprise when I heard my name 🤗I can’t wait to see how Laura kits up her pattern.Love and happy stitching,Melissa
Thanks Melissa!!!! My chart came yesterday!!!!! I am going to see if I have the DMC to start it...otherwise I will get them ASAP. Your finish of this was just amazing!!!! Hugs!!!!!!!!
Ok... I lost it when Laura was digging in her purse ... out comes the wallet, the checkbook, on and on... it’s just so typical of how everything we seem to need is at the bottom of the purse! Loved the ideas too from the consults... You 2 are a pair and we all love your videos!!
Thanks Faye!!! I know!! That purse digging is a daily occurrence....especially when looking for keys!!! Maybe I should just carry the contents of my purse in a big Vera Bradley stitching bag....I could see everything at a glance that way!
Brenda thanks for sharing the changes you made in Oh Joyous Day🙂
I know!!! The relief of the dismissal of some satin stitches is wonderful!!! That is what I (Laura) will do when I stitch it. Thanks for watching Denise!
Always so nice to spend time with you two. I get my tea ready, make sure my ear buds are charged up, grab my pen and pad, and smile the night away. Thank you ladies for your encouragement and positivity. Oh, and I did buy the sticker book and it’s phenomenal. Just ask my 3 year old granddaughter who needed several stickers to make a story on paper. Have a good couple of weeks. Blessings and take care.
Thanks so much Kristin!!! So glad you had the sticker book that your granddaughter could use!!! She can play with any of the stickers you don't like so much. Thank you for your description of watching us...that sounds like fun....and I cannot believe that it is us that you are watching. We appreciate it so much!!!
I’m so happy you two are back together. Love your channel can’t get enough. But it’s really hard to wait 2 weeks for another episode. Lol Take Care
Thanks so much Tracy!!!!! If only Brenda and I lived closer...then I bet we could do them weekly, but we will have to get used to this schedule again. In the meantime, just keep stitching and stitching and watching all the great floss tubes that are out there!! Hugs!
I LOVE consults! So fun to watch! I was yelling YES to Chai!! And, the cherry on top of the FUN Sunday (Sundae?🥰) is the AMAZING Cuckoo Clock! Thank you ladies! 😊💖
Thank you so much Gisele!!!! I have a consult nearly every time I see Brenda!!! I will have to talk about more of them on FT! Hugs!!!
Loved watching you ladies! Your flosstube makes my weekend.😊👍🏻
Thanks so much Ann!!!!!!!!! We appreciate you watching and commenting!
As usual, I really enjoyed watching you two while I sat and stitched this afternoon. Brenda, I don't know how you will decide between all the Blackbirds, but whichever you choose will be a joy to stitch on I'm sure. I like Laura's idea of a Start - a - long - I'm not very good at SALs usually, but that I might be able to handle! Happy stitching!
Thanks Kim!!! Yes, starting things with other people works well for us...we just cannot keep up the pace to finish a long with others! Please join us in any start a longs that strike your fancy!!
Great to see you Brenda and Laura! I really enjoyed this video and seeing all of your stitching and haul. I have Winifred Glarke and think I will start her next. Love that cuckoo clock! So funny! I hope you have a great week and can't wait to see you both again. Hugs and Happy Stitching! Pam Miller
Thanks so much Pam!!!! Glad you are going to work on Winifred!!!! It is such a fun sampler to stitch!!!! Hugs!
Lovely to see you both and all your beautiful needlework again this week . Brenda made me laugh with the work time photo copying, I have done that myself many times Karen R 💕
Thanks Karen!!!! And a girl has got to do what a girl has got to do right??? Work copiers unite!!!
I always enjoy when either of you mention your love for your grandmothers. Bunny! I loved mine so much too.
Thank you Lisa!!!! We sure do miss our grandmothers. Weren't they a blessing in our lives?? We were all so lucky. Hugs!!!
Oh, such fun. You two lovely ladies are a much needed tonic! Beautiful work, as always by you both. I have been encouraging my sister to watch Flosstube and today she exclaimed "OMG, why didn't you tell me about these two girls!" I smiled inwardly 🤣😍❤
Well that is making us smile outwardly Sharon!!! Thank you so very much!!!!! Hugs to you and your sister!!!
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Ladies!
Thank you so much for watching!!!!
Thank you for all the fun :) I ordered from Cross Stitcher, I am not sure I went "Ape" but it sure is cute lol I wish there were more stitchers in Canada...I stitch alone and would love a Stitcher Friend!!
Thank you Deborah!!!!! I hope that you can track down some fellow stitchers in your neck of the woods!!! Is there a local needlework shop?? Hugs!!!
Brenda and the Serial Starter No, there is not a local needlework store 😟 I will keep searching for a friend lol....my husband suddenly
goes deaf if I talk about any craft stuff 🤣
Love love this video as usual! Brenda your story about throwing away all the magazines was the most disturbing thing ever LOL!!! I love all the stickers and bits of ephemera - there is an Etsy store called ‘Altered Artifacts’ who sell PDF sheets of cool old things - I’ve bought from them and made little thread cards etc xxxx Reecie
Thank you Reecie!!!!!!! We love, love, love your videos!!!!! So much inspiration!!!! We will check out that Etsy store stat!!!! Hugs and happy stitching!!!!
Glad you to see you again. I think I am convinced to purchase and kit Oh Joyous Day.
Thanks so much Edna! Yes, you should definitely kit up Oh Joyous Day!!! It is amazing!
Another fun video; love spending my Sunday evening watching the two of you over and over; I have to soak it all in!! LOL Brenda, I am also working on Oh Joyous Day and loving it, I am not as far along as you are because I have been jumping around stitching on lots of my favorites. I also plan to do the My Heart Can Rest in memory of my fraternal Grandmother who I was so close to. Looking forward to that. I loved seeing all of the things the two of you have been working on; such joy it adds to life. I need to call and order the American Chestnut fabric; so beautiful and I don't have any!! Scandalous!! LOL I love the new law and that everyone should be "stickering up"!! So fun. I had to pause the video and go to Country Stitches to buy the Be Kind pattern, just love it. I am also starting my Mrs. Pearson; fun, fun. I also have Noel started on dark fabric; I will try to pull it out soon and post it to Instagram so you can see it on the darker fabric; I love it. Hugs and happy stitching.........................
Thank you so much Pam!!!!!!! Did you get my DM about waiting for Carol to start Mrs. Pearson? If not, no problem we can all start in the next week or so. I am excited! Thanks for instigating this SAL/start-a-long. Yes, get some American Chestnut!!! It is amazing!!! Your Heart Can Rest piece is going to be amazing. Hugs!!!
Yes, I did. I am good with that!! I am looking forward to doing the SAL. It will be fun.
Hi. Really enjoy watching you both
Did call Inspired Needle, they are out of the calendar for this year. You both Inspired me to track my stitching. Will get on the list for next year
Also ordered sticker book. Thanks for the inspiration
Thanks Eileen!! I just saw a sneak peak on Instagram from Needlework Press of one of the pages for next years calendar!! Get on the list for one so you don't forget. Glad you got the sticker book!!!! Happy Stitching!
@@brendaandtheserialstarter2410 talked to the girl who was working at Inspired Needle , she didn't know about taking orders for next year. She said she would leave note for owners. Going to try the Attic
@@eileenkrier3120 Okay, good idea! They may be able to contact Vickie from Needlework Press to see if she has any. I think she is going to have to make a bigger print run next year!!!
Did call the Attic they had this years calendar which they are sending out. Did place my name for next year. They are wonderful to work with. Never order from them before. They are now on my list for future ordering. Thanks for your suggestion.
@@eileenkrier3120 That is so great Eileen!!!! The Attic is top notch and one of my favorite places on Earth!!!
Always fun to visit with you two! “Psychotic break”..... you cracked me right up! Love the stickers ladies. Your stitching, at whatever stage, is gorgeous. Love the consultations too, as I learn something as well! Continue to take good care 😘❤️ Rebecca
Thanks so much for watching and commenting Rebecca!!!! Hugs!!!!
