You have such beautiful projects!!! You are already a natural at flosstube 😊
Already a new YT Treasure I’ll look forward to keeping up with here on Flosstube! Lovely first episode.
So glad to have found you. You are a joy to watch. So up and happy.
I am looking forward to #2 video!! Good job on #1 WIP Parade!! What a clever idea to turn the colors around on Praise Worthy Christmas design. 😊. HAPPY STITCHING TODAY AND EVERYDAY IN 2023!!
Hello, I really enjoyed seeing your projects so many cute things. I am really glad Chris sent me here to see. Thank you.
Great video. I love your Blackbird , Birds of a Feather.
Just found ya…now I’ll have to binge to get up to date! I’m a quilter by trade just getting back into cross stitch after a 25yr break due to raising my son…he’s now 30 and with a new baby that I’m babysitting since he and his wife work full time. My first grand baby (girl) and I’m in heaven. Def cutting into my stitching/quilting/crochet time. Love seeing all of your crafty talents. Hey from Arkansas 🙋🏼♀️
Wow! I loved this! I love your ease and your soft speaking. I felt I was stitching with a friend. I also loved how you held your pattern up for a good amount of time so we can see it and note it
If we want to. Then you also held up your stitching for a good amount of time. This was great!!! Thank you!! Can't wait to see #2! ❤
Loved all your whips...your' Quaker Christmas 2' colors are so pretty in the green instead of the red. Thanks for a great flosstube and will be looking forward to many more.
Welcome congratulations on your first video.
Great first video! Wonderful WIP parade. Enjoyed seeing all your stitching. Looking forward to video #2.
Beautiful projects and a great episode 🙂
Congratulations on your first floss tube. I loved all of your projects. See you soon❤
Great first video! I enjoyed it very much and will be back for more!
@13:09. I love the Snowman Sentinel Welcome….and I like the Snowtunes too. Love the project bags.
Welcome to Flosstube! Beautiful stitching 🙂
Love your Quaker Christmas colour choice!
Great video. Enjoyed seeing your stitching. Look forward to more videos
Awesome first video! Your WIPs are beautiful. Happy stitching!
You and I share similar taste in stitching. Great first Flosstube!
Hello Melanie. Welcome to flosstube. Great variety of WIPS. Love your Carolyn Manning flower finish. Its gorgeous! How intriguing that your husband stitches too.
It’s so exciting to see more and more guys stitching. There are a lot of great patterns out there for all kinds of interests!
Great first video. Love your progress on your wips. Happy stitching!
You done a great job. On your first video. Your cross stitch is very lovely. Enjoyed meeting you and all you are working on. See you next time.
Hello Melanie! Welcome to flosstube. It was so nice to watch your first video! Loved watching your video and I agree your Quaker Christmas II is beautiful. Love the green :)
So nice to meet you! Your wips are lovely! I usually don't hear about people going to Persnickety so that was a surprise. I have family in Zionsville and I love going to Persnickety. Welcome to floss tube!
You have many lovely projects ❤
Great first video, beautiful wips and wonderful stitching ❤😊
You are an amazing lady. Thank you.
Greetings from Illinois, not far from St. Louis. I enjoyed both of your videos. Great job.
Enjoyed your first video
Thanks for sharing your projects and yourself with us! I can't wait for the next video. I love your project bags. They are so much more fun than my file envelopes!
Thanks Pat! I tend to keep the projects I am in the process of getting together in less pretty file envelope bags in my craft room closet. They do a great job of keeping everything together until I am ready to stitch!
Super first video. Wow lovely bags and your stitching is beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you!
Love all of your projects ❤ Thoroughly enjoyed your video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Awsome wip parade
Welcome to flosstube. I moved to South Carolina in May from Missouri where I have lived all my life. I also have a March birthday. I love all your projects I did where the crickets sing from the Blackbird bird series and would like to get the rest and do them. I love let love reign and want to eventually do it it's on my list. You have some great project. Thank you for sharing. Have a blessed week and happy stitching. Lucinda
Wow, it seemed like you had been doing flosstube for years. Great first episode,I look forward to many more
Awesome first episode love all your projects beautiful stitching 😊
Thank you so much!
Thanks for sharing! You have beautiful projects! I LOVE your flower project by Carolyn Manning! It’s so beautiful, I’ve had that pattern for years and have never seen it stitched! Now I want to start it sooooo bad! And I want to copy your green!
Congratulations on your 1st Flosstube. You did a wonderful segment. I've added you to my subscription list and look forward to seeing what you show next time.
I also wanted to add that my husband is a cross stitcher, too.
Visiting from the neighbourhood of chrisxrossStiitch. Great 1st video and my personal comfort is around the 13 WIPS
Hello! I just discovered your channel. Love all of your WIPs and the project bags are wonderful. I look forward to viewing more of your videos.
Loved all of your wips! My favorite was your Winter Quaker because I love your floss selection 🥰🥰🥰 I have ChrisXstitch to thank for making me aware of your channel!
Just found and subscribed to your channel and so glad i did ! Love all your pattern choices. Your project bags are beautiful! Im blessed that my sister is a wonderful seamstress and she has made me a bounty of bags for my stitching. Look forward to seeing you again, you are very good at this 😊
Enjoyed your first video. I also changed the color on the pear in O Joyous Day!
Came over after hearing Chris mention you. I'm a new subscriber wishing you luck with your lovely projects and will be looking forward to your next flosstube. :-)
New subscriber here! :) Just found your video through YT recommendations. And I really enjoyed it. Can't wait to see you and also your husband showing us all your projects (stitching and others) Love that you both share the love for being creative. :)
Also.... love, love, love all the winter and Christmas projects.
Great first episode! I’m also stitching Oh Joyous Day, and I plan to start Quaker Christmas II in December. You have made some great progress! I’m looking forward to watching your second episode.
Hope you make more videos! Thank you. 🌼🧡🌼
This video was lots of fun! I wish I was doing as well on O Joyous Day.
Welcome! Great video. I absolutely love love love all the projects you have chosen! Classic that an in person D&D game falls apart but I love the idea of that dice bag and I will be looking for updates. Definitely get the husband on here we need more male cross stitchers, there are dozens of us!
Thank you! Yes, that does seem to be the way with adventuring parties sometimes! Our virtual campaigns are still going strong, and I might have grown a little too accustomed to letting the in-site dice do the math for me. Michael is planning on making an appearance in the video next month and sharing his stitching.
Congratulations on your first FlossTube episode! You did great job, and I can already tell you are going to be a dangerous "pattern enabler"! I have never been interested in the Quaker Christmas patterns until I saw the one you are doing, and I think I need it. Looking forward to seeing you in the future.
Hi Melanie! Loved your first video. I'm a new subscriber (ChrisXrossStitch sent me 😊). I look forward to your next videos.Stay safe 💕 ~Viv from Western Australia 🇦🇺
Congratulations on your first Flosstube! I've actually seen that dice pattern on Etsy and thought about getting it because my family are big into D&D as well as other role playing systems. I love all of your snowmen projects; they're adorable!! I just started my Flosstube last week, but I was crazy nervous - you seem so calm!
Thanks Tamara! The dice pattern was hard to pass up when I first saw it and then easily gave in after being hit with late night inspiration to stitch it into a bag. I have only ever tried D&D but my husband was able to try three different RPG systems during GenCon this year and he really enjoyed the experience. I was only calm in this first video because I decided I was only making it for myself and my family, and gave myself permission to never publish the video. It took some of the pressure off and helped me to feel more at ease. Also there were several jittery practice rounds and outtakes! Ultimately I felt happy with the outcome and decided to dive right in. I am sure you will grow more confident and comfortable with each video you make too 💕
@@UpliftStitches I had a lot of outtakes too. My husband is putting together a blooper reel for my channel. Lol
Great video, a natural, no nerves from you ! Loved the projects and your ‘uplifting spirit’.❤
Love the title. Welcome to floss tube. Beautiful work.
Really enjoyed this floss tube! You are very natural in your presentation. Great job. I’ll be back for more!
Loved your first flosstube. So glad Chris xstitch sent me your way. You do lovely work. Can't wait for your next video.
Great 1st Flosstube…. Well done! Looking forward to the next one.
That was a big sigh at the end! What a lovely introduction to you and your work, well done 😊
Hi❤i really love all of your WIPs, especially the blackbird designs loose feathers. I used to live in Missouri! Now we live in Salem, MA. Keep up all the great stitching!!
Great WIP parade! Your stitching is beautiful & your project bags are amazing. See you next time.
Hi!!! 🙌 Chris xstitch sent me here! 💓 loved your flosstube!! You have some beautiful projects!! Let love reign is actually the project that got me back into stitching! Still have not started this project 🤦🏻♀️ soon one day!!

Happy stitching! 💓💜
What a great video! I enjoyed seeing your WIPs!
Wonderful WIP Parade. Very inspiring. I also have all 9 Blackbird designs and after seeing your stitching will just have to make a start on them.
Excellent first video congrats
Hi!!! Nice to meet you. I enjoyed seeing your WiPs. The project for yoir dice bag is super cute!
You noted you used Radom threads on your Carolyn Maning. Did you keep track? I just absolutely love your color choices.
Yes, thankfully I did! I sent you an IG message with my list of changes. I hope it helps as you prepare to stitch the piece yourself!
Hello, I just stumbled onto your Flosstube channel and had to watch it because it was #1. I am an occasional crossstitcher because I spend a lot of time with my Sue Spargo wool appliqué and quilting. You mentioned Color and Cotton, I have ordered from them a couple of times and love their colors. We are doing a Mississippi River cruise in October and I am planning to go to their store when we dock in St Louis. Is it worth the side trip? They seem to be out of everything on their web sight. I enjoyed your first show, keep it up.
Hello and thanks for watching! Last I heard, the Colour and Cotton team not yet set up a way to link between their in-store inventory and online inventory meaning the website is definitely not a good representation of everything they have available in person. If you love C&C thread and/or fabric I would totally recommend making the extra trip while in dock! I am so delighted each time I step in the store and experience all the beautiful colors in person 🌈💕
@@UpliftStitches This is great news. Thank you for letting me know about the brick and mortar C&C.
Great 1st Flosstube! How far north of St. Louis do you live? I live in Wentzville! Just wondering if you are close! Love all your WIPs! Love that your husband stitches too and you can share the experience with him! That is really rare! I’m going to Galleria on Thursday and Friday so I will miss seeing you! See you soon on your next flosstube!
Thanks! We live in Winfield, but I do run errands in Wentzville occasionally so it is possible we have crossed paths. It is fun sharing in this hobby with my husband, and he plans on appearing in the next episode. We had a little change of plans since filming and will be attending a funeral this Saturday, so we will be going to Galleria on Friday afternoon instead. Enjoy your time there and if you see us please say hi!
Great projects! I found your flosstube through ChrisXrossStitch. What are the other two pieces on the wall behind you? Have fun at Galleria!
Thanks! The lower one is Coffee Quaker by Heartstring Samplery, done in assorted pinks and purples. The one on the side is actually a Lego set, Floral Art. I am so excited Galleria week is here, and looking forward to all the inspiration and treasures to be discovered!
@@UpliftStitches Thank you.
Nice...I am 1 1/2 hours north of St. L. Going to Colour and Cotton on about 2 weeks in Ballwin. Have you been there yet?
Yes, I have been there twice. I really enjoyed seeing all their beautiful fabrics and flosses in person 😍
Hello Melanie! I loved your video and your WIPS. ChrisXrossStitch didn't disappoint when he recommended you. :)
Chris xross stitch sent me her.

love your wips and your fabric choices are gorgeous
