Oh you crack me up (sorry, I’m watching your flosstubes backwards 🤭🤪). Yes, stitched the Geese (proudly on green 14ct Aida !!!! - a rare find in rural Canada back in the days 😅), the Bears …there was a Brand, I can’t remember but they were the Rave 😎 and most Designs included a lot of backstitching too. Alma Lynn had them amazing Bunnies and I even bought plain colored jersey-dresses on Landsend for my then Toddler Daughter and embroidered Piggies, Frogs and Jeremyma Puddleduck on them (which I’ve all saved and still have 🤭 - my daughter is 28!) Great to be obsessed with Stitching 😇🤣
You are a joy to watch. Keep being yourself and enjoy it. I loved the sampler information. I could listen all day. I taught elementary school for 20 years. Blows my mind how these girls did this. I personally like the colors the girls used for the most part. I like keeping it original as possible. The Geese the bears the rabbits were everywhere. I remember. It is time for some Mrs. Smith pie while i watch floss tube. I love big samplers because I love details and a challenge. However, many of my students would choose a larger harder project to do and regret it, whining the whole time they had to finish it. Eyes can be bigger than the stomach so to speak. Happy Stitching!
You are doing a wonderful job with your floss tube videos. Thank you for sharing the info about the Bristol Samplers and all of your projects. I am looking forward to the next video and absorbing all the goodness. The Smith Sampler is lovely too❣️
I re-watched your entire video. It was as enjoyable the second time as it was the first. I love that we have the same taste in stitching. Don't worry about stumbling over your words. Just keep going. It happens to everyone. Best, K
Thank you for sharing your stitching with all of us. Our daughter married a Smith. This would be a lovely sampler to recreate for the Smiths in my life.
Thank You for another great video. You are comfortable and at ease in front of a camera. It is as if you are talking to your best friend..and you are!! You are delightful. About those charts from the 1980s and 1990s. We were all captivated by the style and laugh about it now. However, your “home” sampler is still applicable and appealing. It is easily described - trendy vs classic/timeless. The trick is to recognize the difference in the projects we choose to stitch now.😊. I’m thinking that reproduction samplers will stand the test of time…..since they already have!
Hello, I enjoy looking at your WIPs. Omgoodness on the history you gave us today. I enjoyed it. My good craft friend was Ann Smith. I surly do miss here. I hope you have a better week.
So glad you came on board yo all of us out here… love your c Relaxed nature & genuine spirit… Great videos.. Your re pieces are stunning. Thanks for sharing info you got from Claudia… she’s an amazing encyclopedia on Bristol’s, as is GigiR. I own one she stitched, Sarah Moon, on 60ct brown curtain linen!! Oh my. Love GigiR she’s a good friend. Anyway I digress… I’m always drawn to muted colors of reproduction pieces.. Euphemia will be stunning whatever you decide. I will say I do like the darker red, also I think the darker blue is lovely, your greens are spot on. And the very lightes soft ghost 😊color adds a charm, maybe a bit darker.. Look forward to your next share. And oh boy the Advent calendar… yep I’ll have to possibly indulge. Blessings Ohio here ….
I enjoyed your Flosstube once again. I am a monogamous stitcher for the most part. I have two small stitches for traveling and one large project that my mother-in-law can not finish due to her health. The count is larger than 28 and I need to clean up the back where stitches have pulled out. I need to get motivated to finish that one in early 2023. Smith
Loved listening to all the information about the beautiful Bristol samplers. Sounds like all the WIPS you have are “big girls!” Enjoy every stitch. Loved the Smith sampler too! ❤
I loved your insights into Bristol samplers and the lives of those young girls! I am enjoying your floss tubes very much. Smith sampler would be a great stitch!! Keep up the great work!!
I am a fan of your flosstube and really enjoyed your dive into learning more about the Bristol samplers. I think learning about the history is so interesting. Thanks for sharing!Smith
I would love to stitch smith! Your antique samplers are beautiful! You have your work cut out for you! Charting reproductions looks rewarding but a lot of work-a labor of love! 😊♥️🧵🪡✂️
So glad someone pointed me to your channel. I watch most if not all of the folks you mentioned, so I'm not sure exactly which one made me stop and subscribe to your channel, but I don't think their name was Smith. Hope you have a great week of stitching!
Hi Grace, I just watched all 3 of your floss tubes. All the samplers you showed are gorgeous! I've stitched only one small sampler so far, but would love to start Smith for my birthday. Thanks and have a great day.
Really enjoyed your flosstube, lost of lovely Bristol information, thank you for taking the time to find out more about these wonderful samplers for us. Would love to stitch the new Smith sampler one day. Another beauty for the list❤❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing the information about the Bristol samplers. I really appreciate when stitchers share their knowledge. Smith is such a common name. Great video, now it’s time to get some rest! You (ad a long week!
I get such a kick out of your flossd tube! You have a way of liven things up! Love it!! The smith sampler is outstanding and I would love to stitch it! Keep the fun a coming, needed it today...
Paisley is my daughters name 😊. I have never done a sampler like any of those because I can never decide one a single one I like. I love all of them! That Smith sampler would be a great first one! Your stitching is absolutely gorgeous!
Enjoyed this episode so much, from your "80s" stitching to the sharing of extra Bristol knowledge to your stitching plans. (Thanks to Claudia too.) I have a lovely 80s goose that I will share with you someday, maybe at another retreat. I think you noticed your Friday-brain more than any of us. It was a lovely and helpful floss tube sharing enthusiasm for stitching. Well done. (BTW sundsmomi = sunz-mo-mee, I think I need to change it :)) Chat with you later
Hi Michele, Thank you for giving me the correct pronunciation of your IG handle! Sorry I blundered it!!! Would love to see your geese at a retreat!! Maybe have a special Show and Share of our work from the 80’s and 90’s!!
Thank you so much for joining Floss Tube - I’ve enjoyed your videos so much - the information on Bristol samplers, especially. We happen to be attracted to a lot of the same projects - particularly the samplers! I’ve been admiring the new Smith sampler and would be so excited to “win” the opportunity. And how brave to film after work on a Friday! I’m sure I would be a babbling mess. All the best. Mary-Elizabeth
Hello from Australia. Enjoying your Flosstubes very much. I am also stitching Mary 395 and need to get a move on! Love the Smith sampler and thank you for the opportunity to enter my name.
We must have similar tastes as I too loved and stitched "East or West Home Is Best"! I can vividly remember enjoying that stitch so much as I loved finishing each little part. I'm so glad that you still have yours. We were one of those who lost our home in the 2007 wildfires in San Diego so I no longer have mine. It was so fun to see yours and it brought back a lot of good memories!
Hi Delnora, thank you for your comments! East and West was a fun stitch! I am so sorry you lost your home to a wild fire! I live in San Diego. Are you still in the area?
Thank you so much for the trip down memory lane ❤, I stitch many geese piece.. I am enjoying your videos and info on the Bristol sampler ❤ I hope to make it to the Attic one day, I am in Ventura county so I am close to you her in California 🌻 I would love to stitch the Smith sampler I love all of Tanya’s pieces ❤
Very interesting to hear the Bristol Sampler details. Thank you, I have always been enamored by them. You have beautiful and inspiring stitching. I can't imagine how tricky it must be to reproduce a sampler. May the force be with you! Haha! Smith
Hi Grace, love your beautiful projects. I wish I could attend a Bristol retreat at the Attic some day. I also love the fabrics from XJuDesign so much. I bought the same advent calendar this year. It is my first one. I am very excited. The Smith sampler is very beautiful. Hugs, Bettina
Hi Bettina, How are you? So happy to hear you love XJUDESIGN linen, too. Are you still stitching on 56 count? I am excited, too, to open the advent calendar!!!
@@paisleystitcher1243 I still love to stitch on 56ct but it is difficult to get the 100.3 silk I need for 56ct. My alternative is stitching with DMC or overdyed cotton on 46ct. ❤️
Oh my gosh, I also did east or west! I even broke out and added Pepsi instead of cocoa and also changed out the two cats to a bunny on a wagon. I must have given myself permission to personalize even in the 90’s. Thanks for sharing. Penny
Yes I have one. I am going to show on our2nd floss tube that we are filming on Friday. I’m going to mention that I saw you share yours. I hope that’s okay with you
Thanks for sharing your learnings about the Bristol Samplers. I never knew there were multicoloured ones. I don’t particularly like red so maybe I will go and search out some of the others to add to my ever growing wish list. The Smith sampler is simply lovely too and is now officially part of the ever growing wish list.
Such interesting information on Bristol Samplers and I have looked up all your new flosstuber recommendations - thanks! I've only got about 6 WIPs and I am also nervous about getting ahead of myself and not finishing what I've begun. But I would definitely like to stitch Mary Ann Smith - she's a lovely one.
Wow! Thank you so much for the shout out! I can't believe it. I am so impressed that you have charted an antique sampler. That is way beyond what I could ever think of. Good for you. I really have to get started on Jane Hopkins. I love seeing your progress. This was a very informative video on Bristol samplers. Hope to meet you sometime soon. Best, K
Well, Thankyou so much , I am writing for the 3rd time tonight, lol, don’t mind me, during my time watching your video and discovered that I need to say “Smith”, in hopes that I will soon be attempting my very first sampler! So happy I found you from your very first flosstube!
Absolutely loved this video especially the history on the Bristol chart samplers. The charts that you got from Claudia are beautiful! There truly isn’t enough hours in the day to stitch all the things. Sampler September, I focused on one sampler, Elizabeth Strickland and then on Thursdays I did red samplers, went between Ruth Gibbs on 56 count but Edna Nichol, both from Hands Across the Sea. The other stitch I did was one red thread before bed and did the free pattern Jemima from Red Barn and actually finished it. Close to a finish on Elizabeth as well. I actually surprised myself. That tree pattern is beautiful as well as the Smith pattern. Thank you for sharing everything, your projects are beautiful.
Funnily enough, the Smith Sampler was the first sampler I ever completed, and I gifted it to my friend as an early 50th present. Now I'm addicted to sampler stitching!
Grace, I love your videos. Jane is absolutely gorgeous.The information from Claudia on Bristol Samplers was so interesting. I recently finished Louisa Coulimore. The Scarlett House is one my favorite designers and would love to stitch Tanya’s new Smith sampler.
I love your work on that Bristol sampler. I know Claudia well...many years ago, she owned Dutch Treat, my local LNS, and I spent many an evening stitching with friends in her shop. I am looking forward to seeing more of your stitching on the sampler you are reproducing.
Really enjoyed the information you managed to obtain on the red Bristol samplers. You have some beautiful projects, all pretty large. I also tend to gravitate towards larger projects too. Would love smith, so fingers crossed! Look forward to your next video xx
My hat is off to you with your foray into designing reproduction samplers. Who knew all the details to be considered? I too am loving every stitch on Mary 395 and so appreciated all the information you shared today. Take care, my friend.
Would love to stitch Mary Ann smith. I also have been stitching for about 40 yrs, and remember the geese! Still have the patterns! I enjoy the history on the Bristol samplers. Thanks

Grace, everything is gorgeous! I enjoyed the Bristol sampler information. P.S. I’m binge watching all your Flosstube videos! I don’t want to miss anything!
Loved the history in Nary’s sampler. Thank you I’d would like to go to the Attic during the Bristol weekend. Smith I’m a new viewer, love your channel. I’ll be back
Love your flosstube- I’m fairly new at flosstube myself and it’s such a great community. That Smith sampler is amazing. I really enjoyed the information you shared about Bristol Samplers and now I feel like I want to know more!
The Smith sampler is beautiful. I just bought Jane Hopkins, but I want to finish Fox and Rabbits Mary Morgan's first. I need some Murky but it seems to be sold out.
I am thoroughly enjoying your last two videos!. And this one is phenomenal also. I have never reproduced a sampler, so I have ideas of matching, but I don’t have anything to base it off of. Do ask the experts in the industry if you need some help. I stitched a free Bristol sampler last year from Meriem Chauvet and she’s a beautiful big girl. Smith
Hi! I was just watching Pam on Stitching Between The Lines. She showed a microphone that she uses. It makes a huge difference in the volume, she said she got it on Amazon, thought you might be interested. Episode 117 at 19 minutes in she shows it.

Hi Stitching Runner! Please email me regarding the Mary Ann Smith 1835 sampler!!!!!!
@@paisleystitcher1243 I don't know your email so I sent a message on IG.
The Smith sampler is beautiful. I just bought Jane Hopkins, but I want to finish Fox and Rabbits Mary Morgan's first. I need some Murky but it seems to be sold out.
Grace, I so enjoy your flosstubes, thank you for making them! Your stitching is so inspirational, and you have such a lovely personality!
I am thoroughly enjoying your last two videos!. And this one is phenomenal also. I have never reproduced a sampler, so I have ideas of matching, but I don’t have anything to base it off of. Do ask the experts in the industry if you need some help. I stitched a free Bristol sampler last year from Meriem Chauvet and she’s a beautiful big girl. Smith
Hi Rose, Thank you for your comments!!
The Smith sampler is amazing. My mother-in-law’s maiden name was Smyth, that’s pretty close.
Hi! I was just watching Pam on Stitching Between The Lines. She showed a microphone that she uses. It makes a huge difference in the volume, she said she got it on Amazon, thought you might be interested. Episode 117 at 19 minutes in she shows it.
Thank you Shawn! I appreciate the info! I am working in the sound. 😁
