Oh Lauren, you have done so much-first your finishes-I could not ever have done them so beautifully. They’re darling. Your WIPS show great progress. Your account of your first retreat made me feel as though I was right there with you. Momma Flossabilities is very pretty, but of course, she’s YOUR mother after all! Thank you!
Hi JoAnn! What a lovely comment thank you 😊 I’ve passed your compliments on to mama too! I’m so glad you enjoyed my retreat segment! Not a bad month of progress on my wips but I think I’m doing better this month and can’t wait to show you all at the beginning of Dec! Happy stitching in the meantime! 🧵💗
You have been making fantastic progress Lauren. Always love seeing what you’ve been stitching. Your small for the retreat is so sweet. Glad you and Mamma Flossabilities enjoyed the retreat. Happy stitching 😊
Hi!! Thank you so much! Yes definitely think I’m going to give one of those summer ones a go on that fabric and see how it turns out. Thank you for your help and lovely comment 🧵💗
Great video Lauren. So pleased you enjoyed your first retreat, sounds like it was fabulous!! Always good fun when stitchers get together. Take care, have a great stitchy month ❤️🪡🪡🧵🧵
Great video, Lauren. The retreat segment was lovely. It brought all the nice memories back. So great to meet you and Mama Flossabilities. Sam and Andrea did a great job. Poor Sami, being ill, but such a trooper. I think Natalia's paper weight idea was the best. But all the smalls were so lovely. Mine was a Hallowe'en stitch finished into a box in the shape of a coffin. I think it was from Cross Stitching Smiles and, incidentally, she got mine. (Hope she liked it, I'm not a very good finisher). Looking forward to your next flosstube. Happy stitching. ❤❤❤
Hi Michaela!! Yes it is so lovely to look back at the retreat!! I’m going to another for a day trip on the 30th july. That sounds like a fabulous small! I love the coffin idea! I’m going to have to think of something now for the summer retreat to make as a small! 😬 happy stitching 🧵💗
Thank you for sharing your beautiful work, I enjoy the video of your retreat I will never get to go to one so to see your was wonderful to enjoy. The gift you gave was so nice and the one you received was lovely. See you next time.

I wish I had been the lucky recipient of your small! I have never attended a retreat but you made it sound like such a wonderful experience. Your fabric choices are superb! Such fun, such lovely stitching and thank you for sharing❣️
What fun to see the retreat pictures and to hear of all the fun you and your Mom had there!! That small is adorable as is the one you received!💙 You have made great progress on your WIP’s and your haul is awesome!! The patterns you chose for your new fabrics look perfect to me! Have a wonderful November, Lauren!! I look forward to seeing your next update.🙃🧡
Thank you so much Sharon! I’m so glad you enjoyed my retreat shenanigans! That was quite a bit of haul for me. I usually wait for bdays and Christmas ! 😂🧵💗
Oh I loved every minute and just the joy I needed today!!! I cannot believe I missed this in November!!! Holidays and travel must have had me ditzy! I love all the news of the retreat💞🪡🧵Your Haul, Girl, you make me laugh so much! That small you created was so cute, in the end! I like how you said some of us would be kind… lol!!! I love the paper weight!!! Hi Mama Flossibilities!!! Beautiful!!! Thank you for sharing such joy with me!❤😂🎉
Hi Tess!! Aww I missed your comments. Don’t you worry at all, life comes first! I was so used to seeing your comments pop up each video I was hoping you were okay and then when you said you missed me on fb I though ah maybe Tess hasn’t seen them pop up 😂yes the retreat was so much fun!! I only have one other video already out and it’s the last one for 2022 and there’s some epic mamas stitching in that one!! Have a wonderful Christmas 🎄🧵💗
@@flossabilities Oh Boy! I will watch it today, I started it.. the Christmas decor is amazing!!! Lol, Just made my whole evening. I have started a UA-cam channel for adults who suffered and endured child abuse. It’s a bit out of my comfort zone to be on video, but my passion all the same. So last night I had a dear friend of mine teaching me video editing.🫣🪡🧵🙏🏼Praying for your Nan!!! 🙌🏼💞
Great video enjoyed seeing your progress on wips and love hearing about the retreat and all the goodies. Love your small its beautiful 🤩 have a wonderful week and happy stitching 😊🪡🤗🤩
The retreat looks and sounds so fun 😀you got great haul there! I love your ideas for the fabric! Mama flossabilities is gorgeous 🥰you have made great progress on your wips 😀x
Aww I’ll tell her you said that !! We had a blast at the retreat. Thank you for helping me with what to do with this fabrics. I think ill definitely be putting some cross eyed cricket pieces on them! Happy stitching 🧵💗
@@flossabilities would be great to see Mama F on your flosstube one day 😃love seeing her wips too 😃so good retreats are becoming more popular over here now! You don’t need any help with your choices because you are always spot on! Happy stitching x
So happy to hear you had a wonderful time at your retreat. Loved your little small that you did. I managed to finish my HAED in October. So exciting. I'm working on a very old wip while I decide which full coverage to start next. Have a wonderful stitching time in November.
Hi Sarah! Thank you for visiting with me. Thanks for the love on the small. I quite liked it…in the end 😂 congrats on your HAED finish that’s an epic achievement. I hope you enjoy your new start when you decide. 🧵💗
Hey Kirsty! Yes it’s humongous!! I have no expected finish date other than try and finish it before you expire Lauren lol. It’s going to be stunning though and I have a cheeky Xmas present on the way of the wind in the willows book illustrated by Chris dunn so I would love to display it near to the cross stitch. Hope you having a lovely November 💗🧵
I also went to my first retreat in May 2021 and guess what? The lady who picked my small was also the person whom I picked my small from! So funny to hear your story. Love your work!
Thank you for yet another wonderful podcast. Loved your wee small, it would have been so easy to get disheartened after the pillow, but you transformed it into something beautiful. I have just completed all the stitching on the very cute otter, only the backstitching left, giving myself a day or two before I embark on that little challenge. Happy stitching x
Hi Sue! Thank you for your lovely compliment on my small! I was pleased how it turned out in the end 😂 I was this close to throwing it away sue! I’m so impressed with where you are up to with the SAL. I’ll get there! 🧵💗
@@flossabilities I almost feel that it is with a little sadness that I have completed the Wind in the Willows, I have loved every stitch. On the other hand I now feel liberated to tackle some other projects that have been very patiently waiting! x
I have never been to a retreat yet but I hope to go one day. Your small gift was beautiful that you stitched and the gift you received was beautiful. I try not to get caught up with trying to make every pattern I see in flosstube videos but I will have to find and make The Sleepy Hollow and The Christmas Carol Sampler. Thank you for such a great video.
Hi Charlene! I hope you get to go one too it’s so much fun! I’m so glad you enjoyed my video and I hope you enjoy those patterns when your start! I’ve had a ball stitching sleepy hollow. Wanted to do this for a while! Happy stitching 🧵💗
Hi Lorraine! Thank you so much for watching! I’m willing you on with your Lisa Parker and then you can join Simple pleasures too! The retreat was fab! Hope to go another one next year! 🧵💗
Kelsea sent us over to see your HAED Wind in the Willows pieces!! Loved the book! I have the Abby Rose Design Christmas pillow. Isn't it gorgeous!?! Wow that Sleepy Hollow house appears so dimensional! It looks a treat!! The fabric is fab too!! I've never done a full coverage piece. The 100 a day is a great plan to tackle it. I admire you!!
Hi Rebecca!! Thank you so much for letting me know about Kelsey! I’ll make sure to tiger her a shout out in my next video!! Your right about the sleepy hollow, I’m loving how that’s popping on the Belfast linen. The 100 daily makes a huge difference when you add it on top of your rotation. Thank you so much for your lovely comment and visiting. Happy stitching 🧵💗
Aww I know Sami it was such fun! Thank you again for such a wonderful day! You and Andrea really went above and beyond . Hope your enjoying the last of Autumn! 🎃🍁🧵💗
Fab video as always lovely lady 💕 my simple pleasures kit arrived yesterday so ready whenever you are to start 😀 i also bought that primitive hare chart at the retreat! Great minds 😂 loved hearing you had a great time at the retreat and it was fab to have you and your mum there 💕
Hi lovely Andrea!! I’m so jealous you are already to go, don’t let me stop you 😂 just waiting for one of these smaller non ornament pierces to be finished then I’ll get my fabric ordered. I’ll drop you a message when I’m starting. 💗🧵
@@flossabilities definitely not stopping me lovely (have you seen how many wips i have going 😂) yes please drop me a message and will start then - makes it more exciting 😀 🥰 xx
Hi Annie! Thank you so much for letting me know! I’ll be sure to give Kelsey Lee a shout out in my next video. Hope you enjoyed and Happy stitching ! 🧵💗
Glad you had a great time at the retreat. Hopefully I'll be able to go to one one day. 😃 Your small looked great! ❤ I'm still way behind on the Wind In the Willows SAL too 🙈😀 I've started Simple Pleasures and really enjoying it. I love the Barging Through you are stitching. Happy stitching xx
Hi Clare! So glad you enjoying simple pleasures! Can’t wait to start that one too with you! We can be in the way behind wind in the willows club too! 😂 hope you have a great stitchy month lovely 🧵💗
You did a beautiful job designing and making the small from the Owl Forest pattern. So lovely to hear that you and your mum enjoyed the retreat. I am in awe of your ability not to be daunted by all those full coverage pieces at early stages. I would be so overwhelmed.
Hi Sarah!! Thank you for your lovely kind words re my small! There were a few swear words muttered under my breath I can tell you 😂 I do get a little daunted at the start but I think the maths helps me. I try and work out when it could actually be finished by if I did so many stitches a day etc and when it nots something crazy like 5 years + I’m like okay and that’s doable. 😂 happy stitching 🧵💗
Planning to do a rotation on seven of my full coverage next year to see if I can get some good progress like you. Not sure if I should go for 4, 6 or 8 days yet. So glad you enjoyed the retreat. The months will look fabulous on that purply-blue fabric. Same as you I tend to buy fabric for a specific project but it can be so beautiful and unique it makes sense to grab it whilst you can. #badgerstitchingsal
Hi!!! Thank you for hashtag for barging through I’ll get my progress on there too. Yes I’m so enjoying my rotation and getting to touch them each month. You may decide to give one or two that are your focus more days and give the others less days but at least they are being touched. Good luck with whatever you decide. Thanks for your help with the fabrics, another thing to add to my want to start list 😂 happy stitching lovely 💗🧵
I absolutely love your small, Lauren! The design and stitching is beautiful and you did a great job not giving up after not beig happy with your pillow (which I would have loved anyway! :D) and turning it into such a cute little finish. I felt really weird when you were showing my small to everyone here, I was so worried to give it to anyone as it's far from perfect. Thank you for being so sweet and kind talking about it! ❤ It was so lovely to meet you in person and I hope we see each other again on some future retreats!🥰
I’m so happy you enjoy my small!! Yours was perfection. I think we all worry about what we have made when gifting it, but we shouldn’t really. I had a great time meeting you in person and yes hopeful to see you at a future one!! 🧵💗
Thank you so much Pam! I meant to shout out the lovely Darlene and forgot 😬 I will make sure I give her a nice thank you in my next video!! Happy stitching 💗🧵
