- Welcome to my first Flosstube! Just a simple introduction and WIP parade. Thanks to all the Flosstubers out there that have inspired me to start this! Some I mentioned in the video (I definitely should have written them down first) and others I'll mention here. If you're looking for other Flosstubes to watch, definitely check these out! I'll spread more stitchy love on the next video!!

Wow Heidi such a natural! Great first flosstube!
Thank you so much!
Loved watching your video, and was surprised at how many of the same projects we have both stitched. You are fun and interesting and I’ll be looking for you again. I love to listen to Floss Tubes as I stitch so I was glad to find you!
I thoroughly enjoyed your video! Within the first few minutes you made me smile and I thought 'I love this lady! I don't care what she's stitching, I'll watch her anyway!' Looking forward to seeing more.
Awww, thank you so much for the kind words! I appreciate your spending time with me! I look forward to watching your videos. I also enjoy diamond painting so I am thrilled to see those! Thank you for spending time with me!
I love you and your wip's and finishes. You're very talented and I love listening to you and watching. Can't wait for the next one.
Thank you so much, Martha!! I'm thrilled you found me and enjoyed our time together. Happy stitching! Needle 🪡 🧵 ❤️
Just ran across you today-cannot tell u the last time I SO enjoyed a flosstube episode! Humor, beautiful stitching, self-effacing, open-love everything! Binging now❤️
Aww, thank you so much for the lovely comment. I really appreciate it and am thrilled you're enjoying the videos! I'm glad you found me. ☺️ Happy stitching! 🪡 🧵 ❤️
I loved your personality. I am now going to look forward to your floss tubes. Keep on stitching.
Thank you, Linda! I'm glad you enjoyed it! I hope you enjoy the others! Happy stitching! 🪡 🧵
Loved your first Flosstube! Can't wait to see more of your beautiful work and what you do with all those frames in your garage. I love to find old frames at the Good Will and yard sales too.
Thank you, Debbie! I appreciate your spending time with me! Happy stitching!
Ok! I watched your recent several flosstubes and just really enjoyed them. My stitching friend Bev and I are watching on our stitching Wednesday. We love your choices, your journey and your fabulous sense of humor!! So tonight as I was stitching my Autumn at Hawk Run Hollow….I watched # 19 again…then had to start at #1 to begin my binge watch….I have MANY of the same charts to stitch!! Teresa Kogut is my favorite and I’m working on Land tThat I Love! Just finished the Eagle! So amazing! I’ll be commenting as I make my way through your episodes!! You bring me much joy!!!
I'm so glad you found me and are enjoying my chatter. You obviously have impeccable taste since we have so many of the same projects! 😉 Thank you for the kind comments! Happy stitching! 🪡 🧵 ❤️
My friend recommended your channel - what else are friends for than to direct me to such a funny, great Flosstube! Thoroughly enjoyed and think it’s wonderful that your dad signed the frames he made, and that your mom helped sew all your project bags. Going to go watch your other episodes now. Keep up the great banter!
I'm so glad you found me!! Thank you for the kind words. I hope you enjoy the others as well!! Happy stitching! 🪡 🧵
I just discovered your channel. So many gorgeous projects! We have 3 cats and a dog. I tell people that pet hair is not only an important fashion accessory, but is also a fabulous secret spice. 😁
That's perfect! Thank you for watching!
I absolutely loved this video, I'm so glad it popped up! Can't wait to catch up with your next one!
Thank you so much! I'm thrilled you found me! Thank you for spending time with me. Happy stitching! 🪡 🧵 ❤️
I found your flosstube! So nice to have met you at the Barefoot retreat. I'm going to binge watch all your videos while I stitch 🙂
Oh, bless you! Thank you for making this retreat so much fun! Let's do it again next year!
I love your handle -- The Potty Mouth Stitcher. My husband says that he helped to install a filter from my mouth to my brain. I have to admit that it doesn't always work. Thank you for inspiring those who are thinking of starting a floss tube and the encouragement to just do it! I have never stitched on linen. I usually stick to 14, 16 and 18 ct. I am not sure my eyes can do anything smaller! Oh, and I am technically challenged also. Hopefully my daughters can help me with that part of it. Thanks for a great floss tube!
Absolutely, go for it! We don't step out of our comfort zone much. This is a safe community to do so. Be sure to let me know how I can find you!! I'll watch!! Thanks for spending time with me!
You're great! Wonderful projects! Looking forward to your next video.
Thank you so much! Thank you for watching! Happy stitching! 🪡 🧵
Welcome 👋, Spring greetings from northern MN…..beautiful stitching and possibilities to stitch 🥰🪡
Thank you so much! Sending you warm wishes from Virginia! Thank you so much for watching!
Just found you. I am from Western Australia. I am,too, a potty mouth. I am enjoying your Flosstube so much. Your story’s and little sayings are wonderful. Love your stitching as well and love the genre as well.
Thank you so much, Janine! Pottymouths unite!! 😄 Thank you for finding me. Happy stitching!
Hello from California! We have a lot of similar tastes in cross stitch. I have that Independence Hall piece to do as well. Looking forward to meeting your kitties! ~Elizabeth
Thank you for watching! You will definitely see the critters as you go along. 😁 I'm glad you can appreciate my penchant for Big Girl projects!
Start them all. You can't finishes what you don't start. Great video. Thanks for sharing
Excellent point! Thank you for watching and for the kind words!
Enjoyed your video! Stitch what looks fun to you!
Thank you for watching, Sandra! Happy stitching!
Coming over from Pam and Stephanie, Just Keep Stitching....starting at the very beginning with you! ❤
Thank you, Kim!! I hope you enjoy my ramblings! 😄 I appreciate your spending time with me! 🪡 🧵 ❤️
Just found your flosstube. Your stitching is beyond beautiful as well as your taste in picking projects. Will be looking forward to following your progress.
Thank you for the kind words, Lisa! I appreciate your spending time with me. Happy stitching! ❤️ 🪡 🧵
How fun! I truly enjoyed your flosstube. I actually started on number 4, then went to number 5 and decided to start from the beginning. It’s nice to meet you. My mom retired from respiratory therapy. Thanks for showing us some of your possible new starts. That sure is fun. I really liked the Poe piece from Tiny Modernist, but to be honest, all your possible starts were good.
Hi Julie! It's nice to meet you, too! Send greetings to your mother, my Sister in Snot, for me! I'm glad you enjoyed the videos. I'm looking forward to working on the Poe piece again soon. There's so many cute motifs in there! Thank you for spending time with me! Happy stitching!
Congratulations on your first flosstube. I enjoyed it. We are about the same vintage in our stitching. Lotta your finishes I have myself. Lavender and lace is the mother of Nora Corbett, so that is one of the reasons they look very similar.
Thank you so much for watching and for the comment! I just picked up a new Mirabilia yesterday and met a lady who used to work for Nora. What a dream job!
Well I just stumbled into your world and I love your videos.!!!!❤
Well, thank you! I hope you enjoy spending time with me! Happy stitching!🪡 🧵 ❤️
Catching up! So excited you are doing floss tube! Love your bags that your Mom sewed and the fact the zippers were your Grandma’s! How special to have the framing your Dad did! How very awesome for you to have them when you are stitching!!!!!
Thank you so much! I'm very very happy to have them with me. The older I get, the more I realize just how special my childhood was! Thank you for watching!
i really enjoyed your floss tube . i really like it because you are very far from me . i live about an hour and a half away from you. its nice to see someone that enjoys stitching like i do . i also have a potty mouth when the time calls for it and it happens alot lol .
Haha! Thank you, Lisa. Sometimes the potty mouth is definitely warranted! I'm glad we're neighbors!
I found your first flosstube refreshing and authentic. Thank you for sharing. I look forward to seeing you again.
Thank you so very much for the kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for watching!
Omg! Loved watching you😊 stitching your cats into your work! 😂 I just discovered your channel. I’m an RN in the ER currently so I understand the 12 hours, they are exhausting… I’m about to power thru all your flosstubes. Can’t wait to see what else you do…. I’m late to the party but I think you should start all the things❤
Better late than never!! I'm so glad you found me. As you watch, you'll see I've started plenty! 😄 I hope you start some with me! Happy stitching! 🪡 🧵
I started out with Holly Hobby so that is at least 50 years ago. I do aida also and I still do aida. After all these years I never got into Linen. Love your WIP's on Linen. Tiny Modernist is my favorite artist right now so I would start that one. I just noticed that this video is from last year so I guess my vote will not count lol. Happy Stitching.
Thank you, though! I definitely started it...maybe I'll finish it someday! 🤣
I don’t start too many at one time or it gets me anxious. Love stitching what I like when I want and WIPCO goals move me right along with progress on my WIPS. I’m a retired RN and know what 12 hour shifts were like and what they take out of you. Truly loved my job. You have great taste in charts.
Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed watching. Thank you for spending time with me!
Love your channel!!! You are a joy to watch! I too am a potty mouth, studies show it keeps your stress level down… true fact! Let the potty mouth begin! Your stitching is wonderful. I also stitched a lot back then and gave them away as gifts…. I look forward to your next video. I say don’t start just one but start all of them…. You only live once!!!❤️
Long live the potty mouths!! YOLO! I see a few starts in my future for sure! Thank you for the kind words and for watching!!
Love it. Keep it u.
Welcome to the world of flosstube. Enjoyed your first video. 🌞🌞🌞🌞 Terri
Thank you so much! I look forward to my upcoming days off so I can catch up on your videos! Thank you for watching and for taking the time to comment. I greatly appreciate it!
The stitching behind you is a Paula Vaughan. It was a Leisure Arts Leaflet Printed in 1990 called Cherished Moments. The only reason I knew that is because I just purchased it last weekend at a flea market for 50 cents and fell in love with how pretty it was. Now that I have seen it I want to start stitching on it even more. I was quite surprised when I spotted it behind you.
Isn't funny how things work out? That's awesome! I'm so glad I could "help" you with your project. Happy stitching!
Welcome to Flosstube! Great name. I have Swear in mine hoping it would be a warning about the language, but I don't think it worked as well as I thought it would. 😆
Beautiful stitching!
New subscriber. I have gone back to watch your first video to present.❤️
Welcome!! I'm so glad you found me! Happy stitching!! 🪡 🧵
Ok Buckeye, you should start anything you are inspired to, whenever you are inspired to. It’s those oh I have to that kill the Stitchy bug. And Stitchy bugs are the good bugs. You have wall space, fillerup. Your stitching is beautiful. Remember it’s the things we don’t do we regret. Looking forward to your next video.
O-H! I bought 3 more Q Snaps, I filled 2 of them yesterday. Back to work today, so we will see how far I get before the next video. Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment! I really appreciate it!
I am thirty seconds into this video and love you already. Smiling immediately. When you talked about being a potty mouth, I thought wow she must be an X-ray tech like me. When you said respiratory tech, I was done 😂
Ha! Healthcare folks have to be slightly warped to stay alive. We know our kind when we see them! Thanks so much for watching!
Haha!! I’m a nurse, we all fit in together like a puzzle!! 🤣💜
I just retired from radiology last year. Haven't felt the need to swear nearly as much You're my people 🥰😂
@@kankerdoodleb9149 I love it. Made me smile. I have recently retired as well and I know exactly what you mean. My daughter is a MRI tech still in the department and she said the other day “ boy, Mom, we had a day today that you would be glad you’re retired. “ I said “wait a minute, I am glad I retired everyday. “ 😂 When she told me about her day, I was like holy cow. Don’t miss a thing about all that 😂
Hello Heidi, welcome to our stitchy community. Loved your video. Your stitching is beautiful! I stitch the same kind of projects that you do and love all the designers just like you. I am not brave enough to do a flosstube but I watch it everyday. Keep going you are a natural. Hope people subscribe because there is room enough for everyone. ❤
Thank you so much for the kind words, Sally! I was the same as you, just watching and enjoying the company. My husband finally asked me what I was watching one night so I told him about Flosstube. He said, "You could do that!" So I did! And now he can't say I never listen to him! Thanks for watching!
@pottymouthstitcher My husband would love me to make a flosstube too but I just don't have the confidence at the moment. Maybe one day. Never say never!!
Looking forward to your next video. Take care.
That is a Paula Vaughn behind you, I also have that one hanging in my house, or maybe I gave it away. Enjoyed your video
Thank you! She had so many pretty designs. I think I still have several of her patterns at my Mom's house. Thank you for watching and for taking the time to comment! Happy stitching!
Thanks for the video. Great first start. Your stitching is lovely. Loved your dad’s framing. Looking forward to seeing you again.🎉
Thank you so much for the kind words and for watching! I really appreciate it :)
You did a wonderful job!!! I enjoyed your FlossTube very much! I am new to all this! I've been stitching before Precious Moments, but I also stitched a LOT of them up and gave as gifts to my family! Yes! Definite backstitching in those! Lol! You do beautiful work! Thanks for sharing! Start as many patterns as your heart desires! I would! And I am finally giving myself permission to start more after seeing your and others' videos! Many people pick certain dates to stitch certain things on, I don't know that I can be that dedicated to 'dates' because I often don't know or forget the date!! Lol! I think I'm going to go by the month, maybe. I'm like you, I can't quite decide how to rotate what I've got going!
You should just call yourself 'down to earth' because I never heard you swear once! I am like you! I do curse at times! It feels GOOD to know there are others like myself out there! Thanks! Lol!!!
I love ALL your Samplers! The Historical Sampler sampler you stitched is gorgeous! I LOVE the colors! WOW!!! I didn't see the name? WOW!
Winter Rose Manor is just beautiful also!!! The colors POP! I love the Vintage Beeswax linen you chose!
Bittersweet & Broomsticks pattern, I'm SO happy you stitched it! The photo does not do it justice after you held your finished piece up - WOW!! Pop! I love it! Yes, that designer has talent, but so do you with your stitching! Beautiful!
I'm afraid of higher count linens! Afraid I can't see them well enough to stitch them! I'll have to dive in with both feet and just try!
I look forward to your next video! Thank you for the pleasurable time! New subscriber now!
Thank you so much for the wonderful comments! The sampler was from The Historical Sampler Company called "Wedding Pot Cross Stitch" on their website. Be careful when you check them out, they have so many gorgeous samplers to choose from! I was always intimidated by the higher counts too, but I really enjoyed only needing 1 strand of floss (cheaper in the long run) and those tiny stitches look so amazing. Probably bc I'm too blind to see any flaws from a normal viewing distance! Ha! Give it a try, you may love it! Thank you for watching!
I truly enjoyed the comfort and friendliness of your first flosstube!! It was like we were just visiting together and sharing a common love for many, many years! I’m ahead of you, but enjoyed hearing about your past stitches. I did so many Joan Walsh Anglund stitches! Your finishes are gorgeous! My vote for your start would have to be Gather Inn and I hope to start that one soon. Looking forward to seeing many more of your wonderful starts and finishes!
Thank you so much for the kind words. The Gather Inn is definitely a gorgeous piece and getting alot of votes! Thank you so much for watching! I really appreciate it!
Welcome to the floss tube community. Your video was awesome and very entertaining. (I especially enjoyed the kitty C PAP comment.) My advice..start what ever - whenever you want to. I don’t care if you have new stuff or not. I cut my teeth on Precious moments and Lavender and Lace too about a hundred years ago. How
the world has changed!!
Thank you sharing. I can’t wait until your next video❣️
Thank you so much for watching and the kind words! And thanks for the input, too. It may come down to a random pick. But I love them all, so it's not like I'd be disappointed! It sounds like you're a child of the 80s too. That was the best time ever to be a kid! Thanks again for everything!
Such fun seeing all your projects and listening to your thoughts on stitching. I love stitching with my called for cat hair. Orange, white, and gray part of every project. I agree about stitching with white thread. Hate it. I’m looking forward to your next one. I’m in Virginia too.
Haha!! Called for cat hair, I'm gonna use that phrase! Too perfect! I had another comment telling me to try Anchor thread for white stitching for less angst/cussing. So I added that to my shopping list! Thank you so much for watching and for the great comment!
I am very excited to watch your video number 2
Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment! I hope the wait will be worth it! I'll probably post another one early next week. Maybe sooner if I get something interesting done.
Thanks for sharing. You do beautiful work❤. I love the family ties from your frames to zippers and stitching bags. I've been doing cross stitch since a 9th grade project and self taught. But recently due to floss tube realizing I want to start using linen and stitching again. Its been decades since I started all with aida. Look forward to the next video.
Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm thrilled you're getting back into stitching! I've really enjoyed diving back in. I had forgotten how relaxing it was for me. Thank you for watching!
Terrific first FlossTube! You're a natural!
My vote is for the Poe piece! It's so much different from all the rest! But do what calls to you. I'll just sit back and stitch with you!
That's the first vote for Poe! And I actually did start it yesterday. Mainly bc I had all 3 of the colors that it calls for!! Ha! It's a super fun stitch so far! Thank you for watching and taking the time to send me the wonderful comment!
Welcome to Flosstube! I am very much looking forward to your second video! 💝
Thank you so much for watching!
Great video! Wonderful personality, easy to listen to, opinionated, great stitcher. I will certainly be watching for your next video. If you could include how many threads and stitched over one or two would interest me.
Thank you so much for the kind words and the suggestion! I'll definitely make note of the threads and try to give more info. I'm sorry! Thanks so much for watching!
Hi. Love all your stitching!!! I myself am an unapologetic pottymouth as well. Good luck with your channel.
Thank you so much! You're one of my people! Ha!
I really enjoyed your flosstube, can't believe it was your first one! You seemed like a seasoned pro! I also did a few of those precious moments patterns back in the 80's. Your stitching looks beautiful. Start all the WIPs you want to. I figure if I already have the pattern and some fabric to put something on, if I want to start it, I might as well. It's no different than if it is sitting in the drawer waiting or in a bag waiting for me to work on it! Whatever makes you happy! Hope to see you again soon and thanks for keeping the potty mouth under control!! lol
Thank you for the kind words! I really appreciate it! I'm looking forward to some time off soon, I'll probably pick more than one to start. What the heck, right!?! Maybe I'll let the cats choose for me. :) Thank you so much for watching!
Wonderful first video. I loved it. All your stitching is beautiful. I vote for Nevermore! New chart for me! Thanks for enabling. My grandfather was from Meadows of Dan or Laurel Fork . I went there many times with my grandmother. Beautiful country. Can’t wait to see you again.
Thank you so much for the kind words! My husband's family is originally from Patrick County, Squirrel Creek area. It truly is a beautiful place! Thank you for the vote, too. Nevermore is so simple, yet fun. Who doesn't love Poe? Thanks for watching!
I just bought a premium Craftsy membership and invited three of my crafty friends to access it! Jeannette Douglas’s how to cross stitch class is first up! 🎉🎉thanks for the suggestion. Next is selling a kidney and buying her by the sea kits!
🤣 I totally understand! 123stitch wishlist worked for me, and it still took a year to get it all! But I've just spent the past couple days working on Autumn, and it's lovely. Totally worth it!! And I really enjoyed her classes!
Such a great floss tube! I have subscribed and look forward to seeing more. And loved the forest. May have to do that someday.
Thank you so much! I highly recommend it! It's a beautiful winter piece. Thank you for watching!
So glad l found you today!! Great video!! Loved your story and your stitching and charts. Will look forward to seeing you again soon! Keep up the good work.
Thank you for the kind words and for watching! I really appreciate it!
I really enjoyed your video Heidi!! You have some amazing stitching and lots of great projects on the go. I think you should start whichever one is singing to you the most but if I had to choose it would be Gathering Honey or patriotic. Thanks so much and happy stitching!!
Thank you, Wanda! Gathering Honey and the Freedom piece are definitely the hot contenders! Thank you so much for watching!
I loved loved your video, you are stitching on some beautiful projects.
Thank you for the kind words and for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Vintage Beeswax is beautiful with those colors. I need to get some!
Absolutely! You need more linen! :)
Welcome to flosstube! I really enjoyed your video and seeing all of your projects! Looking forward to following your stitching journey! ❤
Thank you so much! I look forward to watching your channel soon!
Excellent first flosstube! Keep up the good work and I love your taste of patterns.
Thank you for watching and for the kind words!
So many beautiful projects... love the Christmas sampler! So many temptations! You were so fortunate to adopt a stitcher's stash!
Thank you so much! I hope I helped enable you to start something new soon, you deserve it! Ha! Now you can blame me for pushing you into doing it. Happy stitching and thanks for watching!
You go Heidi!!!❤
Thank you! I love to take my nerd status to new heights whenever I get the chance! Hope all is well with you, Paul. 😊
You did great!!! I love your work!
Thank you so much!! And thank you for watching!
Your Winter Rose Manor is gorgeous! The fabric is perfect!
Super-Great Video…..love your sense of humor and how close you hold your stitching up to the camera…So sorry about your Daddy….I lost mine in ‘99 and I was and still am my Daddy’s Girl at 70❣️ Look forward to seeing you again❤️❤️❤️. God Bless…
Thank you so much for the kind words, Sharon. It's definitely been a difficult year. But stitching is a peaceful retreat for sure. I appreciate your watching! Hope to see you again soon!
Great first flosstube! I enjoyed seeing all your finishes - beautiful. Many of your pieces also reside in my stash. Start whatever is calling to you the loudest, and start as many as you want without feeling overwhelmed. I tend to work on only a few pieces at a time so I can really see my progress. Hope to see you again in a couple of weeks.
Thank you very much for the kind words and for watching!! I started the Poe piece on Monday. Hoping to start another today!!
Congratulations you have been selected among my winning fans
TEXT ME with the name above on telegram to acknowledge your unboxing winning prize 🎁🎉🎉!!!!
Loved your post. Your personality is just precious. And I just love a potty mouth. My advice to anyone one who will listen is “be a Beth Dutton”. Gotta love her! Looking forward to your next floss tube!❤
Thank you so much for the kind words! I've never watched Yellowstone, but still got the reference. The world needs more Beth! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Thank you so much for watching!
Yes, I too am only minutes into your video and have hit all the buttons.
Welcome! And thank you!! You say "too", did someone lead you to my little channel? Or did I get lucky with the "Up next..." feature? No matter how you found me, I'm thrilled you did! Happy stitching! 🪡 🧵 ❤️
You did a great job! Loved all of your projects I cannot even begin to pick one for you to start. Just put the names in a basket and draw one out. Can’t wait to see what you start next time. Have a great week.
Thank you so much! The random pick is always a good option. I just bought 3 more Q Snaps, so I don't have to pick just one...hehe. Thanks for watching!
I loved your first flosstube!! Also love your channel name. Really enjoyed watching all the way through. Beautiful work! One of your wips is my current first stitch that I haven’t seen anyone else working on. I’m also working on the mini village bookstore. Look forward to your next video!!
Yay! Someone else that loves the bookstore! It really is an amazing piece. I can't wait to start stitching something other than sky ad leaves soon! ugh! Thank you for the kind words and for watching! I really appreciate it!
@@pottymouthstitcher agree! I’m just getting to stitch the house now. Can’t wait to see your progress.
Beautiful stitching! Let Freedom Ring is so beautiful! I am in the process on kiting it up, so that will be my vote for a new start 😊. Cant wait to see the next video 😁
Thank you so much! Grab your goodies and stitch it with me, she's gonna be a big project for sure. Thanks so much for watching!
Just found your youtube and I enjoyed it. I really enjoyed seeing the fully finished ones you did in the past. They were just beautiful.
Thank you so much! And thank you for watching!
Great video. Lots of wonderful projects. Love the By The Sea by JD. It is in my stash, but since I mainly stitch on 16ct Aida, I have been a little reluctant to start it. I will use 28ct and I have used it before, but prefer 16ct. So, we’ll see. I think you should start what you want when you want. I Don’t count my stitches or hours spent stitching or any kind of rotation. But if you really want a suggestion, that Edgar Allen Poe piece called to me. I have not seen that one before. And the fabric for it is awesome! Happy Stitching!
Thank you for the kind words! I did actually start the Poe piece on Monday. It's been a joy, so far. Very cute! By the Sea has actually been alot of fun with all the specialty stitches but I can't imagine doing it on aida. I've already run into 3 area that have over one sections and/or half stitches. Thanks so much for watching!
Awesome you started the Poe piece. Watching your 2nd video now and can’t wait to see it!
A potty mouth is a sign of a larger vocabulary which is a sign of intelligence! I still have my Precious Moments books from the early 90’s. I was 19 in ‘93 and visited the US and my friend took me to Carthage. Brings back sweet memories.
You are my new best friend! I sure like to think I'm brilliant when I'm cussing up a storm. Ha! Where are you and which Carthage did you visit? I ask because there's a Carthage here in Virginia, but I doubt that's where you were (It's pretty small!) Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment!
@@pottymouthstitcher Hey Bestie 😀 Carthage Missouri, we went to the Precious Moments chapel. I’m in the U.K., and it was my first trip to the US, first vacation without family. Missouri is where a friend lived. Not the most common tourist destination 😆
@@lorrainelee597 Sometimes the less common destinations are the best! I've been to Europe twice, but never the UK. I hope to do a grand tour someday!
Welcome to flosstube. I live back in Wisconsin now. But I spent many years of my life in Staunton. My dad is originally from there and when he retired from the Navy that’s where he settled down. Met my ex husband there as well. Anyway I’ve lived in Staunton several times over the last 25 years. But what I’m trying to say is my LNS every time I’ve lived there has been the Cross Stitch Station in Waynesboro. Absolutely love her little shop. I’m techtarded too, lol! I really enjoyed your first video and can’t wait for the next.
Thank you for watching! Waynesboro/Staunton is such a neat area. I love the little town feel of it. Cross Stitch Station is an incredible shop! It's probably best that it isn't super close to me! Thanks again for watching and commenting. 😊
Hi Stitching in Dairyland. Where on Wisconsin are you? I am close to Waukesha.
@@lauraglosemeyer1016 I’m in Stoughton.
Enjoyed your first video! Your work is amazing 😊
Thank you for the kind words and for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Awesome 1st post! I was hospitalized with Covid for 7 months. Bless you for being a RT. I love the rose bag you and your mom made! Your stitching is beautiful. I have cats too. (I keep tweezers near by for the fur lol) Can’t wait to see your next post. Happy stitching 🧵 🪡
7 months? I am so sorry. You have definitely walked through Hell, my friend. Thank God you made it through! I pray we never see anything like that madness ever again. Thank you so much for watching and for taking the time to comment. Tweezers are an excellent idea! Note to self!
@@pottymouthstitcher Thank you😊 I am thankful and blessed. They say I’m a miracle as they didn’t expect me to make it. I pray no one goes through what I did. I’m looking forward to your next post😀
Good job on your first floss tube, I've subscribed and will be back for more. Your angel pattern is a Lavender and Lace designed by Marilyn Levit Imblum who was Nora Corbetts mom. Happy Stitching from Steph in NJ
Oh, thank you, Steph! I had no idea they were related, but it makes sense now that I think of it. Their work is so similar and beautiful. Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment!
Wow, you have done some amazing stitching! Super happy to have run across your channel by chance 🤓
I am a nurse & can relate to the vocabulary
Looking forward to spending more time hearing about your stitching & other crafts.
I vote for Seasons of the Heart patterns. 🙋♀️🇨🇦
Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment! Another vote for Brenda!
UA-cam suggested you and I sure had fun watching. I added 3 patterns to my to buy list. Suggestions. I think you should start "Let Freedom Reign" because you were so excited by it. The one I really liked was Plum Street - Blackberry House. Awesome first video. I am going to shout you out at my next video.
Wow, thank you so much! I've subscribed to you and can't wait to catch up on some of your videos! The Freedom piece is definitely getting the most comments for a start. But I have 3 empty Q Snaps, sooooo...guess I have to fill them! Thank you for watching and the kind words, I greatly appreciate the stitchy love!
Great video! Love all your projects!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate the kind words!
Great first video! Inspiration is one of those pieces I adore but haven’t had the guts to start! I love so many of your WIPs. On your stuff to start, I have Blackberry House all kitted up so I have to vote for that one. You should start a few, though! You can’t finish if you don’t start!
Thank you for the kind words! The Blackberry House looks like it'll be a fun stitch, for sure. Thank you so much for watching!
Congratulations on your first Flosstube🥳🎉I enjoyed the memories of Precious Moments, etc. Holy backstitch Batman🤣Love the project bags you made with you mom, and the frames your dad made are beautiful: stunners💖thank you for taking the leap and I look forward to your next flosstube. I'll vote on the next chart to start on IG. My doggie sends big hugs to your 3 cats and the dog next door. ✨
Thank you so much for watching and the wonderful comment! I'm thrilled you enjoyed it! Thank your doggie for us. The critters would (mostly) appreciate the love. Ha!
Hi. I just finished your FlossTube while I am pretending to be cleaning my sewing/stitchy/office room. So fun! Looks like we have all the same patterns! LOL. I am diligently working on Teresa Kogut Land That I Love.
Thank you so much for the comment! I hope you already have those houses done on Teresa's pattern, bc that gold house about did me in! I'm going to work my way up the side and give me a break from that last big house in the corner. Or maybe I'll just start something new to take a break. Hehehe Thanks so much for watching!
@@pottymouthstitcher I have done the gold building but not the other two yet. I told a friend that looking at that calf shit gold for what seemed like weeks just about made me quit stitching!!
LOL! Ain't that the truth!
Welcome!! Love your channel and your work. I also bought the “by the sea” series before I realized I had no idea what I was doing!! And am still afraid to start it! You gave me some great laughs this morning!! 😂. I am a nurse in a hospital, so thanks for all you do! 💜
I have about 10 projects I work on. I have 3 I have monthly goals for (grandmas house, 100 owls, and I forget which other). I keep one patriotic piece going all the time, just finished a Betsy Ross Sampler. I am working slowly on the flag with the states written on the stripes, but I don’t like the white on my fabric so I’m pissed at it. And I have a Halloween piece going at all times. Throw in new babies and weddings. I don’t make hard rules, cause I stitch what I’m obsessed with that week.
Thank you for the wonderful comment! I've been working on By the Sea since I filmed this and it has been super easy! She has excellent instructions in the pattern, so break that out and go for it! It's been an easy stitch so far. I love the flag pattern you're working on. Another person here commented on my dislike of stitching alot of white. They suggested using Anchor floss, so I will definitely try that! Sounds like you're a busy stitcher! So glad you found my channel, thank you so much for watching!
Your stitching is beautiful! I understand the concept of having multiple projects. I like to finish what I started and usually when things start looking like the pattern that is enough motivation for me. If you must start something new I would start one of your patriotic charts. I really like your Halloween pieces. Right now I am working on Witches Wheel by Glendon Place.
Thank you so much! I just looked up Witches Wheel, I've never seen that pattern before! It's pretty cool. I did start the Nevermore piece Monday and it has been fun to stitch so far! And as soon as I get the rest of the floss I need, Let Freedom Ring will be next! Thank you for watching and for taking the time to comment. I really appreciate it!
Love all the same as you! You are too funny!
Thank you so much!
Howdy Neighbor! So glad you came into my feed! I live in Eastern Montgomery County! I work in healthcare but not a clinician! I wasn’t sure anyone else in the area stitched! Lol! Actually, I have found 2 others, they just aren’t close by!
Hi neighbor!! There are a few, for sure! There's a Facebook group, Mountain Stitchers, that meets every month. Sadly, I've only been able to meet with them once bc of my weirdo schedule. But they are a lovely group of people! I highly recommend checking them/us out! I hope to make it to a gathering again soon. Thank you so much for watching!
Great flosstube! Love your projects and attitude. I’m a monogamous stitcher, the idea of wipgo sounds too much like what I retired from lol. I stitch when I feel like it and don’t when I don’t, kinda my whole retirement philosophy. Definitely subscribed and looking forward to updates.
@@pottymouthstitcher I follow that Facebook page but haven’t been to a meeting.
@@Thundergigglez Aahhh, retirement! It's a little glimmer in front of me. I'll live vicariously through you! Thanks so much for watching!
Great first video, love your finishes and all the beautiful stitching ❤😊
Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm thrilled you liked it!
I watched you right after Ronnie on GaRon stitchers shouted you out on their video (Ronnie said you were a nice lady and did not use "bad words" ) I'm like you, if you want to show it, I want to watch it. Keep it up, I had a good time with you tonight.
Thank you so much for watching and for the kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Fantastic WIPS very enjoyable Flosstube. I’m looking forward to your future ones. Sorry but no help from me on what you should start next since I can’t even make that decision for myself! Happy Stitching!
Thank you for watching and the kind words! Not being able to decide what pretty piece to work on is a good "problem" to have. :) You're in good company!
Welcome to FlossTube! My vote is to start Gathering Honey, its amazing how you can see charts all the time and then when someone else shows them its like, wow, never noticed that one so much. Start them all and enjoy every stitch. Look forward to seeing what you choose, Kristy.
Thank you so much, Kristy! I love me some Plum Street! I just got a few more Q Snaps, so maybe I'll just go crazy and fill them up. Thanks for watching!
Hey. Loved the video. I’m about 3 hours south of you, so I’d love to hear what stitchy stores you have near you. I’m a correctional officer who also works 12 hour shifts so 1) potty mouth by nature and 2) understand about stitching around that kind of schedule lol. Pick what ever and how many ever you want to start. Do what makes you happy. I’m still in monogamous mode, but have a ton of stuff I want to start.
Thank you so much for watching! I know of Southern Stitchers Needlework Shop in Brookneal, Va. It's a wonderful store and she has an Etsy store too, I believe. Southern Past Times in Troutville, near Roanoke is a cute little shop with decor and a fair amount of cross stitch goodies. There's a quilt store Sew Biz in Radford, Va that has cross stitch goodies now too. And Cross Stitch Station in Waynesboro, VA, near Staunton. She's got a wonderful little shop too! I know these are the closest to me, but I would bet there's some closer to you. Let me know what you find, I'm game for a road trip!
Hello, Heidi! Great first video. Even though I really like every potential start you showed us, I would pick rSeasons of the Heart by Brenda Gervais or Gather Inn by Plum Street. All your works in progress are beautiful! I’m glad you started a channel. My sympathies on the loss of your dad. Have a great week!
Meline
Thank you very much for the kind words, Meline. You can't go wrong with Brenda or Plum Street! Thanks for watching!
Lovely first video! Beautiful finished pieces I can’t wait to see what you start next. Maybe start some patriotic pieces??
I did go thru my stash yesterday, looking for all the floss needed for Let Freedom Ring. I'm missing a few! So once I get those, I'll be starting it for sure! It has been a definite fan favorite. Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment!
Ooo I have a potty mouth too! I live just above you in Delaware 😊
Hello, Neighbor! Thank you for watching!
Perhaps get Let Freedom Ring started. That will take ages. And the gathering honey? I'm half way through BlackBerry house atm. Looking forward to the next episode!
Thank you for watching and for your input! I love them all, maybe I'll just pick a random project bag and go for it! Ha!
Hello Heidi! Fun first flosstube, you are a natural. What is the name of the wedding sampler you showed? I would love to stitch that for my sons wedding. Your stitching is all so beautiful. Looking forward to seeing more!
Thank you for the kind words! That piece is listed as Wedding Pot on the website. Google Historical Sampler Company. But be warned, they have so many beautiful samplers!! Bet ya can't buy just one! Thank you for watching!
Stitch what you love,
Thank you for watching!
