Hi Brenda and Laura. You brightened my day with your fabulous floss tubes yesterday. Thank you. I immediately dig through my drawers to look at my Blackbirds. Have a wonderful week. 🤗
Thanks for keeping it real and sharing all your stitching. Love that you two are able to still do your floss tubes. You make me want to stitch so many patterns that you show. I have the new Black bird book coming and I got out my Merrily Merrily We Welcome Spring and am stitching on it again. Stitching and this community is helping to keep the anxiety away. Love you two.
Thank you, ladies, for continuing to make your fun flosstubes! It is definitely balm for my ruffled soul. I love seeing all your new stash and past finishes. It inspires me to dive into my collection of BBD and start something. I am so thankful to have a great collection of their charts and books from over the years.
Thanks ladies. I sure appreciate you both giving us some normalcy by showing all your projects, haul and the beautiful Blackbird charts. Take care, stay well and we love you!!!
Thank you both for finding a way to continue your flosstube. It is much needed right now. Thanks for sharing all of your needlework. It was also nice to hear about Brenda's antique samplers. Stay safe and well!
Thank goodness most of those Blackbird patterns are out of print, or I would totally be blowing this week's paycheque on ALLLLL of them lol. Thanks for the fun video!!! You two are needlework queens!
I totally LOVE the two of you! Yes, comfort stitching is needed now more than ever. I love watching the two of you. You are a USO for stitching community. Thank you for sharing stitching goodness
I have been watching and rewatching older videos while i stitch and sew just to hear your voices motivates me beyond words. Be safe and keep stitching. So glad you found a way to continue. Much love!
Thank God this remote thing worked!!! We would of been lost without seeing you guys!! Blackbird, if only i would of discovered them sooner, I would of followed the law!!!
Oh man, we love you guys. Your videos just perked up my day, thank you so much for sharing your stitching, friendship and time with us. It really does help with feeling connected. Have a great week. Margie
Thank you ladies for finding a way to keep making floss tubes. It is always a pleasure to see you both and how you support/enable each other, and your love of cross stitch comes through. Stay well and be safe.
Thank you so much for finding a way to continue. LOVE your videos and seeing all the treasures you share=== both your lovely stitching and your stashes.. Have a safe and good week
As usual, you ladies are world class enablers with fantastic projects! Thank you so much for taking the time and extra effort to make your regularly scheduled video(s). I know I’m not the only one that looks forward to seeing you ladies, and especially now, you give us just the kind of distraction we all need right about now. ❤️❤️❤️ And, thank you SO much for the great shoutout!
Thanks so much for making the extra effort to film a FlossTube and keep your social distance ladies! Loved seeing your market haul and your projects as always. You two are the “Queens of Enablement”! 👑❤️👑
I discovered FlossTube about a year ago and I discovered your videos about a month ago. I didn’t really find the Quaker Samplers or Blackbird Designs all that appealing until I got to sit in on your conversations. I got information and inspiration from each video. Today you showed a Hello Liz Matthews Quaker sampler done in muted tones and the clouds parted while angels sang. I found my very first Quaker project, so never say never! 💙💙💙
Thank you ladies for making it work! You two bring us all so much joy! I went and ordered all the floss for the Sewing Club book. You know, to support our shops! Okay, I did it for me too, I admit it! I can't wait to stitch them all!
I was very happy to see that you were able to complete your Flosstube from separate houses. I always enjoy everything that you show. Excited for the next one.
Oh girls you will save us all! Enjoyed all the samplers and the laughs in between! Still finding a way to connect with each other and the stitch community is something to be proud of! So many cancellations for us……our 45 anniversary to Bermuda (top suite) and a surprise cruise to Disneyworld for our family to name a few! We must try to follow the rules and stay safe so that we can get on with our lives,, Keep stitching and smiling, Love to you both😍
I was so happy to see you two had a flosstube today...Thank you ladies....you are the best...I love to see what you are doing, what you did and what you will be doing...
Ladies! I just found your flosstube a few weeks ago. OMG. I love you guys. I have been going back to the older videos as time permits but I am also trying to ration them out. You make me laugh and wish I had a stitching buddy. This week’s videos seem even more special in trying to get some aspect of normalcy in these turbulent times. Thank you for what you are doing. I really can’t express how much they have been part of my survival this week. 💗💗💗. Buy all the blackbird!
Thanks so much ladies. Appreciate you both not only at this time but always. I’ve definitely got a few of those older blackbird designs books/patterns and you’ve reminded me about all the lovely goodness I have stashed away 😂
So much temptation you enablers you ! It is so nice to have each other to stitch and have fun. Nobody I know nor my family act as though a needle and thread would attack them and have no interest in any sort of craft nor stitching. BUMMER !
I have learned my lesson! I WILL buy all the BBD books! I watch your videos at least twice, sometimes more. Thank you for your dedication to bringing smiles to so many. 😁
Love you both......thank you for these live videos.... Its really a blessing......hellos keep ones mind on happy thoughts ......& on what we love to do....Stitch.. Love all your Blackbirds......looking forward to your next video... Blessings~ Brenda & Laura ❤💐🌷🌹😎🇺🇸
Glad to see you ladies making the social distancing work! Laura I think you will become more of a serial finisher instead of starter! Congrats on all the finishes! So happy to see you like Miss Mary Barker, Brenda! I loved the colors in that one too which is why I charted that one. Happy stitching!!
You ladies make a great video. I love watching your friendship and your love for stitching. You have so many beautiful projects. Stay safe and healthy.
So glad the Internet finely let you continue with the Blackbird Portion!!! WOW, you gals both have an awesome collection of BBD charts and books. Brenda, your BBD finishes and Joy's are gorgeous!! I will be looking for a mid week video this week!!!! Hugs, Lynn
You guys are fabulous!!! Thanks for figuring out how to do your videos!!! Loved all three! I was so excited to learn from you that the coveted drum by BBD is in the Sew book - Yeah!!! Stay safe and happy stitching!!
Thanks for taking the time to do this. Love your review and stitching, which is beautiful. I could listen to the two of you all day. Stay safe and well, from Milwaukee.
It is so good to see you both. I am missing a few of the Blackbird books. I remember clearly passing on buying souvenirs of summer back in the day. Never knew OOP would be a thing. Now it’s my Unicorn chart. Love all your market purchases. I bought a few made it to Country Sampler this past weekend before they closed. Bought a couple of older things. I could buy everything in that store!! Enjoy your quarantine stitching. I’m a Nurse practitioner so ready and waiting at work if needed. (Our usual clinics are urgent only so quiet right now) watching Flosstubes so keep them coming 😀
Thank you so much for continuing to do your videos; I truly believe that during this time they are especially needed, they help all of us to not feel quite so isolated. I loved seeing lot of BBD; they are so wonderful in designing and in person. I am sorry about your retreats; let’s hope that things turn around quickly so there are not any more cancellations. Hugs and lots of stitching time to you both.
Thanks so much sweet ladies for figuring out how to make the video! What a surprise and so much fun! Of course a big fan of BBD, so I loved each and everyone you each showed. I hope working from home won’t be too stressful and the desire to stitch washes over you completely. Take good care of yourselves and may your families stay in good health as well. 😘❤️ Rebecca.
Love you two! Thank you for the video! Love the finishes, wips and projects to do, inspiring me to finish my one project so I can start another one! Stay safe, stay healthy and wash your hands! 💕
Beautiful, just beautiful!!! I find myself saying this all the time now. You have turned my stitching world upside down. I went from 14 count to 28!! and doing my first sampler Plum Street "A shepherd Song" . I even stopped starting in the middle of the fabric but using 1 strand of floss is complete anarchy. Keep it up I love the videos.
Glad to see you both, it was one of the better videos from two locations! Hopefully this will not last long but who knows. Love all the Blackbird items. I have my haul coming hopefully soon and it is full of Blackbird! Hugs to you both!
Thank you for finding a way to continue with your videos. I love watching you two as I sit and stitch, even more so with everything that is happening in the world. Stay safe xx
So good to see you both well. So much blackbird, it’s gorgeous. You know I always thought you have so much stash, is it really necessary... mmm I know why now, sitting in my house making sure I will have enough materials to get me through. Thanks ladies always a pleasure and a joy. Stay safe and well. Xxx
I love Blackbird Designs and I love you gals❤️. Thanks for providing us with continued inspiration during these very trying times...10 days in quarantine...I’m old and have RA...double whammy! Stay safe and be well!
Thank you for figuring out a way to continue sharing with us. Your postings have such great information, with some much needed laughs along the way. During these times, it is a relief to get away from the news and see all of your projects. If you can find a way to give us your favorite Instagram and Flosstube folks, that would be a bonus - maybe a top 5, or top 10?. Thanks again for continuing to spread the joy of cross stitch!
Thank you for your video. I work in Health Care, so I'm still going to work. But I am getting alot of stitching done, and enjoying it, just as you ladies are. Love seeing all the Blackbird, and your market haul. Take care, and happy stitching!
Thank you for sharing it all and making do with both of you at your homes. Sorry your retreat was cancelled. Trying times and many adjustments for us all. I had such a great end of March stitchiness planned and a trip to Disney with the grands happening. Thank goodness they never told the 5 year old we were going. Oh well. Rebooking things for the fall now. Got to stay positive and moving forward. We have our health.
What a wonderful trip down BBD memory lane! Yes, we could stitch their designs the rest of the year and then some. A great reminder for me as I have model stitched and finished in some of those books and now ready to stitch them for myself. Take a look in Sarah Tobias at the Morning of Life Sampler, a favorite of mine. Indeed it is a crazy time but, with hope, we will make it through. Both of you be safe. . .grateful for you!
Thank you so much Joy!!! I will have a look at that sampler tonight!!! You have stitched some amazing models for BBD and finished so many beautiful things for Brenda and so many lucky stitchers. Hugs!!! Please take good care of yourself!
Thank you for continuing to find a way to celebrate our common love of stitching in these overwhelming times. Although I’ve never met you, when my husband asks me what I’m laughing at, I always tell him it’s my stitching friends. And that’s exactly who you are. ❤️ the best kind of friends who share what they love to do, they make you smile & laugh, and encourage you to try something a bit different or introduce you to a new designer or linen or “rule” 😂. Much love to you friends❤️. Take care until next time. Laurel
You girls make my day! This is such a treat to be able to stay connected through Flosstube! Keep up the inspiration for us! Such a joy! Keep stitching! Blackbird Designs has become my favorite!!
We just love you guys!! Thank you for your wonderful effort to keep your show going! 😃 We love your finishes Laura! LMFAO - ballsacks!! Hubby and I laughed our butts off!! God bless you both- keep us posted- stay safe.. lots of Virtual Hugs 🤗 from Fred and Jen in Canada.
So happy you figured it all out and brought us more fun. We really need it right now. Congratulations on your finishes Laura. You probably better start a bunch of new ones in order to maintain your nickname.
BLACKBIRD designs...I'm a lover of ALL!! I try and get my hands on as many of their designs as I can...which I am proud to say I have a nice collection!! One you did not show that has to be my favorite is the 3part Autumn, Summer and Winter!!😃😊😉 LOVE YOU LADIES!! HAPPY STITCHING TODAY AND EVERYDAY IN 2020!!
Great, great! How much happiness you two bring to all of us. What wonderful inspiration you give us and you projects are absolutely gorgeous!!!! Have a happy stitchy week!
Love your video as always! I'm the one who stitched the Fairy Garden pillow that Brenda received at the Midwest retreat. So glad you are enjoying it, the retreat was before you started doing flosstube and I never put it together that you were the one who received my exchange. ☺
Can't Thank you both enough. Love you ladies..though you keep making me buy more things. Getting the stocking series. Need to find August..LOL ! I'm working from home and really just want to stitch to cope. Thank you for the diversion. HUGS!!
Thank you very entertaining episode. It was wonderful to visit with you two. Bless you for being creative to keep the show coming. It's a high light. Cabin fever
Thank you, ladies! Your visits today (both of them) brought a much needed and appreciated reprieve from our current situation. Loved you both, as always! ❤️❤️
Ladies we so appreciate you two even way down here in NZ. When I saw your videos come up in my feed this morning, I literally cried, I was so happy to see it. Bit extreme but interesting times and all. I would definitely stitch along if you do Blackbirds Country Life even if I have to cobble the threads and fabric together from my stash. Look after yourselves as we will here in NZ as well.
Thank you so much for your video and your extra efforts today! I enjoy your videos as always. Not going to lie… Laura, when you said #duh , I spit my tea all over the place. Thank God I wasn't stitching at the time. 😁
Love your videos. Totally entertained me I did both blessing be thine and Winter wonder land. I got alot at market. And since self isolation more. Ordered from 4 different lns stores. We got to keep them open lol. A fine collection is the first book of bbd I ever brought in 2002. I didnt stitch anything in it until last year.
You guys are awesome! You’re as much fun in this format as you are when you are actually together! Thank you for helping to keep all of us sane and entertained during this difficult time!
I love all the BBD!!! Brenda, the small sampler you have started reminded me that I finished it and need to have it framed! I also recently finished the pincushion/scissor pocket with the big red bird on it. I will have to post the pics of them on IG. Thanks for another fun distraction! Keep well and stitch on!! 😊❤️❤️❤️
I just love watching the two of you!! I am only missing one of the BBD books that you showed.The Souvenir book. I'm getting nervous about Celebrations of Needlework in Nashua NH getting cancelled. It's on Memorial day weekend!! I'm with you Brenda , I'd go into a funk too!! Stay safe ladies and enjoy your little bit of extra stitching time!😊♥️. #duh #loveit
Thank you both for sharing your stitching and stash, so pleased you were able to work the double screen .. Would love to know what the two white house designs on the wall were as well ❤️
Thank you soooo much for filming for us all!!! I know it must have been aggravating figuring it all out! Love you girls to the moon and back!! I kept giggling and my husband kept asking me what I was doing. He knows now when I just say Brenda and Laura! Love all the projects, wips, finishes, dreams and friendship!!! Have a good and safe week!

Thank you so much for figuring out a way to broadcast together while maintaining social distance. Bless you. Flosstube is my sanity.
Beautiful, just beautiful!!! I find myself saying this all the time now. You have turned my stitching world upside down. I went from 14 count to 28!! and doing my first sampler Plum Street "A shepherd Song" . I even stopped starting in the middle of the fabric but using 1 strand of floss is complete anarchy. Keep it up I love the videos.
Oh my heavens you ladies had me laughing out loud which felt soooo good! Thank you for sharing YOU! (and all your lovely “collections”) Be well!
Glad to see you both, it was one of the better videos from two locations! Hopefully this will not last long but who knows. Love all the Blackbird items. I have my haul coming hopefully soon and it is full of Blackbird! Hugs to you both!

Love all the Blackbird Designs! I have been collecting them, I keep them all in binders in protective sleeves. I love just looking through the binder.
That is one great binder!!!!! Thanks Sandra!

Jenn's Counted Threads Thanks so much for letting me know! I have your little pillow in a display next to my stitching chair downstairs❤️❤️
It is so beautiful Jenn!!!!!! I know Brenda loves it!
Can't Thank you both enough. Love you ladies..though you keep making me buy more things. Getting the stocking series. Need to find August..LOL ! I'm working from home and really just want to stitch to cope. Thank you for the diversion. HUGS!!
Thank you very entertaining episode. It was wonderful to visit with you two. Bless you for being creative to keep the show coming. It's a high light. Cabin fever
Love you ladies! Thank you for filming videos. This one was a GREAT start to my day. Xoxo
Thank you, ladies! Your visits today (both of them) brought a much needed and appreciated reprieve from our current situation. Loved you both, as always! ❤️❤️
Ladies we so appreciate you two even way down here in NZ. When I saw your videos come up in my feed this morning, I literally cried, I was so happy to see it. Bit extreme but interesting times and all. I would definitely stitch along if you do Blackbirds Country Life even if I have to cobble the threads and fabric together from my stash. Look after yourselves as we will here in NZ as well.
Thank you so much for your video and your extra efforts today! I enjoy your videos as always. Not going to lie… Laura, when you said #duh , I spit my tea all over the place. Thank God I wasn't stitching at the time. 😁
Love your tube. Thanks for cheering us all up
Yay so glad you did a flosstube . I enjoyed seeing some of your BBD stash!!!
Thank you so much!
Love your videos. Totally entertained me
I did both blessing be thine and Winter wonder land. I got alot at market. And since self isolation more. Ordered from 4 different lns stores. We got to keep them open lol. A fine collection is the first book of bbd I ever brought in 2002. I didnt stitch anything in it until last year.
You guys are awesome! You’re as much fun in this format as you are when you are actually together! Thank you for helping to keep all of us sane and entertained during this difficult time!
I love all the BBD!!! Brenda, the small sampler you have started reminded me that I finished it and need to have it framed! I also recently finished the pincushion/scissor pocket with the big red bird on it. I will have to post the pics of them on IG. Thanks for another fun distraction! Keep well and stitch on!! 😊❤️❤️❤️
Thanks Cathy!!!! Glad you were reminded of a finish!
Yay awesome enabling. Thanks for sharing
I just love watching the two of you!! I am only missing one of the BBD books that you showed.The Souvenir book.
I'm getting nervous about Celebrations of Needlework in Nashua NH getting cancelled. It's on Memorial day weekend!! I'm with you Brenda , I'd go into a funk too!!
Stay safe ladies and enjoy your little bit of extra stitching time!😊♥️. #duh #loveit
Thank you both for sharing your stitching and stash, so pleased you were able to work the double screen .. Would love to know what the two white house designs on the wall were as well ❤️
Thank you soooo much for filming for us all!!! I know it must have been aggravating figuring it all out! Love you girls to the moon and back!! I kept giggling and my husband kept asking me what I was doing. He knows now when I just say Brenda and Laura! Love all the projects, wips, finishes, dreams and friendship!!! Have a good and safe week!
Thanks dear buddy!!!!!!!!! We love you to the moon and back too!!!
