I loved your video, cross stitching &running around with your best friend. Best of both worlds.
Girl…. You got that right!❤
Glad you enjoyed retreat. I sure missed you but it is true that you need to do what makes you happy. Travel is fun.
I agree! There’s so many places we want to see and do. Thank you for your kindness. ❤
What a fun video, Cindy! Thank you for sharing your retreat adventure at Primitive Gatherings, your camper tour, and some beautiful photos of UP waterfalls! I have never attended a cross stitch retreat, so I appreciate all of you on floss tube who share your experiences. Going to Primitive Gatherings is on my wish list for 2024! We live in SE Michigan and love the UP! It has been our yearly summer vacation destination for 28+ years. I look forward to seeing more of you and your stitching inspiration on floss tube in the future. Happy October!🍂🍁🌻🎃
Hello Mary, this is Sam. Curious what your favorite places in the UP are? We love it there as well, we got engaged in the Porcupine Mountains, so that kinda makes us like part Yooper!
Thrilled to see you again❤
Hi Rebecca! It’s so good to hear from you! Hope you’re doing well. Missed you too…❤
Have not been to a retreat but looking forward to when I can.🎉
I hope you enjoy it when you get to go. It’s fun to get just get away and do nothing but stitch and talk. ❤️
I am hooked after one retreat. Jacobpalooza was this past weekend in London Ontario with Jacob from Modern Folk Embroidery. I have so many new friends who have already subscribed to my flosstube that is quite new. I purchased amazing linens and learned a new stitch from Jacob. I even found a few people from my hometown that I can stitch with.
Well…. That’s all kinds of wins! I will check out your flosstube! We newbies need to stick together!❤
Loved seeing your cost camper. Isn’t it nice to have a handy husband, I have one also. We have camped for years, and now have progressed to a 40 ft motor coach, which is so comfortable, but not always easy to get in certain places. We are in the Deep South, but would love to travel to see all those beautiful waterfalls! Wishing you safe and fun travels and stitching🪡🏕
I haven't been to a Retreat, hopefully someday. I enjoyed the tour of your teardrop & the fall pics from Michigan are beautiful!
Not sure where you live but often there’s a long drive involved so I get it. I’m glad you enjoyed the tear drop tour and other pictures. Thank you for your kind words. ❤
So great to see you back. Sounds like you had a very nice time at the retreat. I have never been to one but since I am from Northern WI, Primitive Gatherings would be a good one to start with. Your haul was amazing, that place is spectacular. Look forward to seeing more Flosstubes from you in the future.
Thank you so much. I appreciate your watching and commenting. You can’t go wrong if you go to PG. ❤
Glad to see you back on FT. I am so sorry for the loss of your friend; glad you are able to take full advantage of getting out in nature and enjoy each day. What a retreat location! Thanks for the waterfall views too.
You know I love your handle! Good to hear from you. Thank you for your kind words!❤
Awesome ❤ Loved your retreat recap, the tour of “Bushy”, and all of your finishes! It was great meeting you in person and look forward to seeing your again soon 🙂
Awwww! Thanks for your friendship and encouragement! Hope to see you soon!❤
Never been to a retreat but I do go camping😊And I loved your camper your. Thanks for sharing
There’s often travel involved with retreats and sometimes that prohibits attending. If going is something you want to do, I hope it happens for you. Thank you for watching. We really appreciate it. ❤
Your husband sounds like a great person!
He really is! I’d be lost without him. Thanks for your kind words. He will love reading this 😁
I love this- the fall colors and your quilt is beautiful
Thank you for your kind words. I love this time of year. Thanks for watching and commenting. ❤
Love your videos and your husband’s commentary from the side. Your retreat sounded amazing. I hope to get to Primitive Gatherings some day. One of my favorite retreats has been Chantelle’s 141 Pep Rally with Cathy Haberman.
I will keep that one on my radar. That may be a shorter drive too. Thank you for the tip.
Love the combination of your channel, the camper and the stitching life, I had missed your videos! Thank you for the details of your "van" - I did not get its proper name, it is the first time I see such an ingenious thing. I will also subscribe to your other channel. Happy stitching and a beautiful November to the both of you!
Thank you so much. We have fun camping and stitching and camping seem to go together. Thanks for your kind words.
Thanks for sharing 🎉
Thank you for watching. I know you’ve been a loyal viewer. I appreciate it!
Your retreat looked like fun! Your finishes are so darling! Thanks for sharing video of your trailer. Sam has done a fantastic job fixing it up!! When I retired and was stitching more, I quit using QSnaps and switched to vintage hoops that I bought on ebay. They are so much lighter, thinner, and easier on the hands. Barbara
Barbara, I never thought of that. A lighter hoop makes a lot more sense. I’m gonna try those again and see if that helps. Thank you for being so kind ❤.
I love the camper set up! We have a Hummingbird nd camp too. But haven’t gotten to ya retreat yet. So glad I found your channel!
Welcome Donna! I hope you will stay. Thanks for taking a chance on us. ❤
Sounds like you had a lot of fun. I have never been to a retreat.
Waiting for retirement.
We love to camp but I like my bathroom so we have a fifth wheel.
I really enjoy hearing about all your adventures.
Thank you!!! I didn’t start back up with cross stitch or learn to quilt until I retired either. There just isn’t time when you work. I know you’ll love it when you get there. (So jealous of your bathroom!)❤
Loved your teardrop tour, very functional. The finishes are cute, I love doing tomatoes. The retreat sounded fun. Never been to one, maybe someday. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you Kathy. That teardrop isn’t fancy but it works for us. (Unless it’s really cold out. I’m not into cold showers 😁). Thanks for your kindness.
Just watched your video and to my surprise heard my name mentioned as a new subscriber! And, how unusual to have TWO Ronnas! I don’t run across my name often! I really enjoy your videos, and your traveling adventures. Your choices for stitches are much like what I choose. I’m in Missouri, not far from Quilters Station in Lees Summit, Missouri. They have several retreats that are quite popular among flosstubers. You may want to add that to your list of possible retreats to attend. I’ve never been to a retreat. Someday, I hope too❤️ Thank you for the shout out, and keep those videos coming😊
Hi Ronna!!! Thank you for watching and I love the idea of going to a retreat in MO. You’re lucky that you live in such an awesome stitching environment. Nice to meet you! ❤️
Hi Cindy, it’s nice to “meet” you! Loved everything you shared & sounds like the retreat was great! ( Teresa also did a Flosstube about it). Lucky girls who were all able to attend. I’m a new subscriber& can’t wait to get home from my volunteer gig to binge watch your previous episodes! Also loved the fall pics ( living in Fl I don’t see much of that)! Take care! 😊
Hi Deborah! Glad you found us and hope we can continue to entertain and educate (#alwaysaneducator)❤.
How exciting that you go to meet Teresa! My back was killing me at my retreat, so I switched to my camping chair, and put a pillow behind my back, and that was MUCH better! I'm going to Lori Brechlin's Christmas Open House stitching day, and I am taking my camping chair. I already gave her a heads up. :) I think it has a lot to do with the position that you're sitting in. I'm used to stitching in my recliner.
I'm having retreats in March, and September in 2024. If you come to the one in September, you could make some of those acorn thread holders. I think our theme will be acorns and squirrels.
Hi Doreen! You got it. If I can come in September, I’ll bring enough for everyone! 😘
So glad to see you back! Loved hearing about the retreat. I may never get to go to one but I can live vicariously through watching others! And loved the camper tour too. We love to camp and are considering downsizing from our 35' to something a lot smaller.
I can’t imagine the life of luxury in a 35 footer! 😀 Thanks for your kindness and hope you’ll continue watching. ❤️
Small campers make huge memories 😆
@@adventuresofthememorymakers So true - our first camper, years ago, was old and tiny with no running water, yet we have the best memories from that time!
Oh Rhonda, don’t listen to him. You can make big memories in big campers with bathrooms too!😁
You've got a bathroom sweetheart and it's the best kind as it has unlimited fresh air LOL!
How my gosh!!! So I didn't go to the retreat, but I was able to stop by Primitive Gatherings this fall. As a child I lived in a town near Larsen and we camped every summer in Door County. I now live in Colorado and It''s been on my bucket list to go back and see the house that I lived in (it was built in the 1880's) then camp in Door county. Not to mention stopping in at a few shops along the way. We travel with a 20' trailer and 5 dogs. How crazy is that!!! One campground that I had looked at staying at was the High Cliff State Park!! So I just missed running into you!!!! My husband would have loved a fishing buddy! So enjoyed your video.
If you get back High Cliff state park is a nice park with lots of hiking trails. It's pretty empty mid week which is great. The fresh water is located by the pump out site. The singage is a little thin and I didn't see the sign till after we had set up. Had to carry water to the camper.
It’s a small world isn’t it??? We just didn’t have time to swing by Door County but I want to do that next time. I also wanted to go Country Sampler needle shop. But they were closed.
Soooo jealous of your bathroom!❤
I made sure that our trip included a stop at the Country Sampler and it was fabulous. I also enjoyed your camping set-up. Such a talented hubby you have. We need something a bit bigger with all the doggos. I would also be the one to attend a retreat while camping !!@@cindysadventuresinstitching 😀
That Sam is so handy!
He sure is! And he cooks too!❤ thanks for watching. We appreciate it so much!
Hi Cindy! I loved hearing about the retreat and your adventures! Thank you for the tour of your teardrop, too. I love the modifications. How fun to camp while retreating. We want to get a Little Guy camper…the timing just hasn’t been right yet. I haven’t been to a retreat yet, but may in the future. The all day sitting would get tough for me, too! Would have to take breaks to move around! Thanks for sharing all you’re up to! It’s fun to watch!
Thank you Tricia. We have friends that bought a “Little Guy” camper. They really like it. It’s so easy to maneuver. Thanks for taking the time to comment and sharing a comment. ❤🪡
So glad you are back…missed your videos. I’m going to my first retreat at Anabella’s the end of this month. I live in Avon, IN and would love to find retreats or stitching friends close to home. Your pictures were beautiful 😊
I bet you’ll have a great time. I wish there was a cross stitch club close to us. There’s one in Ellettsville called Hoosier Stitchers. Have you been to it? I’ve only been once. I want to go more often.
@@cindysadventuresinstitching I have not been to that one, but may check into it. There is a monthly one in Terre Haute and some in Noblesville too…just need to go!
Sam is the bomb on the teardrop renos❤
I've never been to a retreat. We had one and the price was too high for me to afford on a fixed income. Next time, I'll ask if I can day visit.
Thank you Rebecca!
You know, Rebecca, you don’t know until you try. They may just go for it.
I have never been to a retreat. Maybe someday soon!
I hope you get the opportunity some day if you want to try it.
Welcome back!
Couldn’t have done it without ya! ❤
About 5 years ago I lost a eedle while stitching i even crawled on the floor couldnt find it nowhere I gave up my husband was a diabetic and had neuropothy in his feet the next day he asked me to look at his foot it hurt I didnt see anything next day worse i said you need to go to drhe said no next day very swollen red and hot i said im calling the dr she got him in and thought it was gout but had a xray taken they found my needle in his foot he had to have surgery in the hospital for 3 days and in a wheelchair for 3 weeks i was so upset and felt awful about it
So sorry to hear that your husband found your needle that way. I bought Cindy a magnet that she can "sweep" her sewing room floor with to help find her needles and pins. It works really well. Now if we could just find the one she lost in the couch!
Oh my word! I haven’t lost a needle that I haven’t found but if my husband found one in his foot I’m sure I would never hear the end of it! He would probably ban all needles from the house in which case I would miss him very much 😂
Thanks for sharing an interesting video. I’m going to my first workshop this weekend, it’s with Jeanette Douglas 😊. We have a campervan and love going away with our three dogs. The workshop is in Cumbria in the UK and I did think about going in the van but I decided to treat myself and stay in a hotel instead.
I bet you’ll have such a good time. Enjoy! Camping feels like you’re far away even when you’re close to home. Take care ❤
Thank you for sharing your journey and stitching. Do you have any trouble with bears attacking your camper.
We’ve never seen one while camping but we did have one in Empire, MI when we were at a VRBO. They’re cute from a distance 😉
❤❤
Thank you!!!!
I am so enjoying your episodes. In this one you talked about using a tape to finish your pillows. Have you done a tutorial on how to use them and if not, will you?
Jane, I hadn’t thought of doing a tutorial on pillows but I certainly could. I’ll put that on my list. Thank you for the suggestion!
@@cindysadventuresinstitching I really want to start doing my own finishes. I loved the way your pillows looked!
Well, if I can do it, you can too. I am sure of that!❤
Elaine S Menominee MI yes UP is beautiful. Just found you I hope to follow you great you tube.
Thanks so much! I hope we can continue to educate and entertain ❤
Lol
I’ve only been stitching about three months and have been wondering what ORTs meant. Just didn’t want to ask. 😂
Asking for a friend??? That’s what I do!❤
