    Hi Ladies! I hope all is well, I’ve been meaning to and forgetting, lol, to let you know I was the one at Stitch North that gifted you the decorating pins! 😊. I hope you both have a project or pin cushion to add them too! Congratulations on first trunk show! 💓. You two always make me laugh and inspire my stitching.
    Good Luck, keep Stitching,

    I had to pause… OOAK. Maybe that’s how they spell oak in Canada. OMG!!! Hysterical!!!
    Amity … the translation for the piece you purchased is “Many little gnomes come dancing on the roof”
    Thanks for sharing your travels with us. As always, you bring us a lot of giggles!

    What a great time at your retreats. I think the sister factor has a lot to do with it! And your retreat in Florence-I know there are a lot of the Central Kentucky Stitchers who would jump at the chance to be there. Please let us know first so we can get in our reservations. 😉

    So glad to see you back. When I saw the length of the video I stopped by the concession stand to get a tub of popcorn, a gallon of soda and a giant box of M&Ms. With plenty of snacks I settled in for the feature length episode. 😂 Your trip to Canada sounded like such fun.

I live in Middle Tennessee and we NEED retreats that are closer to home 🥰 I enjoy retreats but I can only afford to attend a limited amount especially if they require extensive travel. I like to look at the vendors goods but honestly I am happy to just hang out and stitch and laugh a lot!

    In the yarn world, when we buy something we like with no immediate/known plans for a project, we call it “feeding the stash!” So, even if you don’t have plans for any fabric or floss, it’s appropriate to say you’re “feeding the stash.” 😊🤭

    As I was watching your video - before you got to your Stitch North haul - I was considering signing up for the Tiny Modernist patreon. Now I definitely will.

    For a low key retreat try Crazy Women Retreat in Casper Wyoming (in September) or its sister retreat, Southern Utah Stitchers in St George, Utah (in March, I’m hoping Primrose Cottage will have their store open by then 🤞🏻). If you have a retreat in Florence my daughter and I would love to come, all the way from Southern California! Love your Flosstube!

    It's only a 7 hour and 14min drive from Madison, WI. I would TOTALLY come down for the weekend. And that's what I did with my "Retreat"! I mean, I didn't do a REAL retreat, but I wanted to stitch with people in person for Jen Lee's #24HOCS Marathon so I booked a reasonable, well lit hotel conference room, put it out there that people could come, offered the space, and charged enough to cover the room and some people showed up! We're small, 15-20, but so is the room, but it's a great time :)

    You guys do such a great job and you crack me up! Amity, are you going to share your name tag pattern either as a freebie or in your Etsy shop? Erinn, the fabric you are considering for restarting Winter Snowfall is beautiful, but I think the white stitches would be lost. I would love to meet you both and Stitch North in Canada would be a great destination for a meet up! But your retreat would be fabulous!!! merry Christmas! 🎄

  • @ThePajamaStitcher
    @ThePajamaStitcher Місяць тому

    Do you get motion sick? The arch is really cool, but it's very tight quarters and very hot. Its like a Mork & Mindy egg pod. By the time you get to the top, it's rare if you're not sick. Then as you look down through the windows, you feel the floor move because it sways in the wind. I was ready to go back down after 5 minutes at the top but dreaded the ride back down. I love Colour & Cotton but can't afford to go often. I live 15 minutes away and it's hard to not go every day they're open. Next time you go to St. Louis, the place you guys should go is the City Museum. So much better than the arch, but you need a whole day to really enjoy it. Love your wips and stash. I recently found a chart at a local thrift store and thought of you. It's a big beautiful Macaw. I'd love to go to Canda for Stitch North.

    Enjoyed your video! 310stitcher put me on to you! I just wanted to comment on the price of shipping... our dollar right now is about $.66 to your dollar! When I take a deep breath and order from 123 or somewhere else I have to add that 34% onto each $ US that I spend - the shipping from US to Canada is also +34%... and as 1/2 of our family lives in the States we found out that it is cheaper for us to ship to the US than to ship to another province! I am paying $100 + for each 1/2 yard I buy - and I live 2,000 miles from my nearest shop! Plus you have an amazing variety of shops - not very much here... So - I'm not meaning to make you feel bad - but it could be worse! There is something to be said for 10 x's the population as far as a market goes! Hope to meet you if you go to Stitch North next fall!
