The Christian Geissinger piece is beautifully stitched!
I love your husband's spiritual input. A definite keep.
Thank you ❤
Hi Kim! I am sorry to hear that your eye is not acting right! Hopefully soon it’ll feel
better!! Enjoyed your video so much. I need to finish my little Maggie May!!! Yours is adorable!!😘
The oval frame for the pheasant! It swoops with the body of the bird and the tail.
I do love it too!
Love your badger unicorn and a peacock with out the background stitching
Thanks, Mel!
I love the oval frame for your newest bird stitch. Gorgeous combo. I wouldn’t change the finish either. 👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you, Tamie! ❤
What a fun visit! After border mistake on Florence, I’m inspired to pull out something to stitch on its own too!!
I just love your stitching! Looking at your wall is giving me the itch to work on my Samplers. So inspiring! Thanks for sharing your talent ❤
Loving all of your stitching Kim and looking forward to seeing your birthday starts. Have a wonderful birthday on Thursday. Happy stitching 😊
Thank you so much, Sally 💕
Your videos are always inspirational. I always see something new and your stitching is stunning. I hope your eye is better soon. Happy blessed birthday! Janine
Thanks, Janine. My eye is still a thing, but it’s getting better. Thankful it doesn’t prevent me from stitching!
Love it all! Thanks, Kim! And they got me on the Phoenix Sampler…it’s on its way!😂😂😂❤
🤣🤣🤣🥳
Excellent Flosstube! Excellent message! I want to stitch that tiny chart with you for your birthday too, Miss Kim! I love you and XOXO! Heidi 🥰😘❤️🤗
Happy belated birthday Kim! I hope you had a fabulous day….❤😊
Thank you! We had breakfast with friends, and then I stitched! It was lovely ❤
I love watching you to see all the beautiful birds!!
Glad you like them! Me too!!
Just love your videos. Your stitching is divine and a perfect backdrop of eye candy. You look just lovely. I hope that sty heals soon. That green standing frame is perfect with that bird!!!! Happy stitching, friend. ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much, Mary 💕
Your stitching is so amazing! I always love seeing your projects! Happy stitching!❤
Thank you so much, Joyce ❤
I tend to fall in love with borders on samplers.. and I generally don't mind stitching them if I can do them a bit at a time. I've admired several Reflets de Soie samplers, but those borders truly intimidate me. (Yes, I know it's all a stitch at a time lol)
As always, thank you for so much inspiration and the blessing of the scripture. 🪡👠
Yes, just keep taking small bites, right?!
Your videos are so inspiring Kim, and am always amazed with how much you accomplish. Well done!
Hi Judy! I had a lot of stitching time! 💕
I continue to be amazed at all you get accomplished! :) You are an inspiration, and I really enjoyed seeing all of your beautiful stitching, especially your patriotic finishes. I truly hope your eye gets better very soon. I also enjoyed the great Scripture verses.
I had a lot of stitching time! Thank you…my eye has been quite a challenge 🙄
I think it's Sarah Allen - - Gorgeous Work!! and yes, when Hummers fly you can see their feet.
Yes!
@@ContentedNeedleworkerKim It was on the tip of your tongue ;)
@@DeeAZstitcher. I had the Sarah part 🤣
Oh July is my birthday month too. Your work is so lovely. I am finely working on 25 eve weave Lugano. Just not quite to linen. Maybe not ever. Anyways I enjoy cross stitching immensely. Your framed works are real works of art. Thank you and many blessings.
Happy birthday!
Hi Kim gorgeous stitching projects,finishes for your patriotic box,great haul,love the bag from Diane,Thankyou for sharing,have a good week,We are in Winter here in NZ,good stitching weather.🇳🇿❤️🪡
I’m so excited to be going back for Summer School!!
Loved seeing your WIPs and your fully finished pieces. You have such a great eye for color! I laughed at your beginning because I too have a stigh in my eye. You at the top lid, me at the bottom! Hope it goes away quickly for both of us! Happy stitching ♥️Lori
Oh no! I actually have one inside my bottom lid too 🙄. Not sure why I’m so prone to them! I hope you have relief soon!
So many beautiful projects, Kim! And the fabric you chose for the garden SAL is just perfect. I remember reading Secret Garden as a kid, and that pattern is so pretty!
I’m having fun with your SAL! I love the musical of Garden as well as the book!
Aw friend your poor eye! I hope it’s on the road to healing now. It was not distracting at all, though! We had too much beautiful stitching to look at!
🤣🤣 thank you! It’s slowly getting better 🙄
Oh bless your heart. I am dealing with a stye , too! It just doesn’t want to stay away. I’m beginning to think I’ve developed an allergy to my eye liner.
Regardless, your stitching is always beautiful and such an inspiration. Blessings to you and your hubby! ❤
Oh Beth, I’m so sorry. I have one on the bottom that is recurring, and I stopped wearing eye makeup a few years ago! I may have to give up the concealer too, which is scary since I always have dark circles 🙄. I hope you have relief soon 💕
@@ContentedNeedleworkerKim prayers that you have relief soon, too. ♥️. And yes, giving up make up is a scary thought! 😬😁
Always love your videos. I use an 8x8 qsnap for most of my stitching projects because I don’t want to hold something heavy. My new discovery, which is working great, is that I bought extensions and 11” clamps to make my qsnap 8x11. It gives me some more stitching area so I don’t have to move the snaps so frequently. The other thing I use is white paper towel cut in strips to put under the clamps to avoid direct contact with my stitching. Happy stitching! Lee
Thanks, Lee! I have lots of sizes as well, and I use felt or paper towels too. I find my loose clamps to snap over the stitching, and that helps!
Oh my, your projects are beautiful!
I hope your eye gets better soon.
Marilyn
Thank you, Marilyn 💕. My eye is slowly getting better, and I’m still stitching!
As always, hanging with you and seeing your stitching is so inspiring 😍😍😍 I got out Louisa to put some stitches in. It’s so huge I’ll probably never be done but I’m enjoying every second. Thank you for sharing with us Kim 🤗🤗
I saw your Louisa! I appreciated your thoughts on the border! It is definitely a challenge for me to keep pulling her out!
Beautiful stitching!
Funny how people stitch so differently! I'm a definite border stitcher unless there's a specific requirement to stitch it otherwise, like a sal or such. :) Another fun watch during stitching, thanks for sharing your art and joy!
I know! I love that we are all different in our stitching preferences and choices and that we can accommodate all of it!
You are my inspiration. I need to stitch more birds. I love the brick house you will be starting. I'll add that to my list. Xoxo
Oh, our lists! 🤣🤣💕
Try castor oil for the stye. Apply, leave on for about 15 minutes, and wash.
Ah, thank you!
Kim, all your projects are just so beautiful!!! So good to see you and all of your stitching!! I also loved all three of the frames but if I had to choose one it would be the swing metal one!!!! You are right, it is so much fun stitching with friends🩵🙂
I’m so thankful to call you a treasured friend 💕

Love all your beautiful stitching my friend.
Thank you so much, Devi! ❤
@@ContentedNeedleworkerKim forgot to mention. I am going to start Gwenths bouquet with you
@@DeviSisk yay! I’m still waiting for my happy mail from Evertote to come!
I was so excited when watching JBW Designs to hear your name called as the winner. I just love Judy's designs. I just finished her Bluebirds of Happiness and awaiting its return from the framer! Your stitching is extraordinary and you choose the most gorgeous patterns to stitch. I'm hoping you might be able to show me some of your stitching techniques at Summer School. I'm amazed at the progress you make in between episodes! Would love to have some of your expert tips! Happy stitching💚🇺🇸
So excited to see you again at Summer School! ❤
Wonderful video. You are so inspiring
I’m inspired by so many others in this community!
What amazing progress on the birds!! Gorgeous! Happy birthday :)
Thanks so much, Sian 💕
Always love to see your videos pop up 😀😀😀 Hope your eye gets better soon.
I’m watching you from the beginning, and I keep wanting to message you and say Let’s SAL that! 🤣
Thanks for another lovely visit with you and your stitching, Kim😊. I love seeing all of the beautiful samplers you stitch on. I'm not much of a sampler stitcher myself, but I do admire all of the designs and finished samplers that are out there! And I just love the history behind the design and the stitcher. I was recently able to purchase a copy of Florence Mary Dickinson, and then I heard Brenda talk about how fussy the border was 😂 . Yikes! But I love your idea of stitching just certain pieces of it. I'll probably wind up stitching the whole thing (whenever that is 😂), but hearing how you are only stitching a portion of it reminds me that I can do the same if I find stitching the piece is becoming too much. Happy stitching!
Hi Maureen! Yes, that border on Florence is a definite no-go for me 🤣
oh tout est tellement magnifique !!!!! félicitations vos réalisations sont superbes ! Marylin de FRANCE😊
Merci beaucoup 😊
❤❤❤
Your volume of stitching and fully finished items is awesome.Not to mention your creative license in the pieces. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! I’m having a lot of fun!
Thanks so much for sharing I’m always inspired when watching your video (all the way from Sydney Australia). I replayed the video but I didn’t catch the name of the red alphabet project in the frame behind you, would you mind sharing? Thanks again for sharing your beautiful stitching
Hi Kim
Love all of your WIPS - they are just beautiful.
I loved the Scripture Verses that your Husband Read and the Commentary about the Scriptures that he read. I want to thank him for doing this.
Take Care & Happy Stitching
❤️🤗🙏🧵🪡🧵✂️❤️
Thank you so much!
Hello Kim - I always enjoy watching your flosstube episodes - very inspiring! Elizabeth Huill - no contest - the green swing frame - a gorgeous pairing!
Thanks Kate! I’m still struggling with the frame choice 🤣🤷🏻♀️
I love your enthusiasm, always smiling and of course all your gorgeous projects!
💕💕💕💕. You were (and still are) a huge inspiration and introduction into my love of samplers!
I enjoyed your flosstube and your hubby’s scripture sharing as always. May your eye heal soon. I have loved Louisa Barny for a long time. Today you inspired me to go ahead and order her. Thank you!
Yay!!! She is beautiful!
Oh my, another fabulous video. All your projects are absolutely stunning.
Thank you so much! ❤
Beautiful stitching and lovely presentation. Your wall is so inspiring; so much so, that I dug out my buried kitted copy of BLUE SKIN. I then ordered NELSON, George's other horse that's now available.
So proud of your borders! Lol I love borders as you love birds. I do love a good bird, too. Stitchers... give us a house, a flower and a bird and we are happy. Enjoy your stitching. You have the best ability to zoom in on the prettiest part of a pattern to show case.
Yes, give us a house, a flower, and a bird! That should be on something like a T-shirt or a cup! 🤣
Hi friend! Boy oh boy that Louisa Barny is a heart stopper! She’s beyond gorgeous and you are doing beautiful work on her!! Wowza!!🩷🩷🩷
Thanks friend 💕💕💕
Oh Kim I love all your work. So beautiful and enabling!
Thanks, Karen ❤
Seeing your patriotic stitches makes me want to stitch all my patterns. I have so many of the same things! Always love what you stitch and how you make it reflect your personality. I don’t know how you get so much done!
I don’t have a job these days! 🤣🤣
Happy Birthday Kim...hope it is the best ever...I love all your stitched patterns...your birds are spectacular...I have never associated all the vines we stitch as being associated with Jesus's teaching until your husband's Bible reading... best wishes and happy stitching ❤
Thank you, Loretta! I had a lovely birthday breakfast with my husband and some friends, and then I stitched!
So good to see you again Kim. I’m not filming at the moment …family needs me at the moment. I’m missing stitching but enjoy watching what others are doing!
Hi Cathy! Thankful you can be there for them 💕
I love it when you post a new video because your stitching is wonderful and I get so many ideas. I hope your eye is better soon, I also got a sty at the end of May and it took until last weekend for the infection to go completely. Thanks for sharing another great video and thanks to your husband for taking the time to share the scriptures.
Thank you, Sylvia! Goodness, this stye is awful! They take so long to go away! It hasn’t stopped me from stitching, though 😉
So great to see you back Kim, you've been missed! So proud of you for all of the border stitching! Eddie & Patsy looks incredible on that fabric you chose. Louisa Barny is just breathtaking! Big hugs!
I’m proud of my border stitching too 🤣🤣💕
Oh I totally agree Kim…the friendships made through this wonderful community are so amazing! Thank you for stitching with me…I recently saw a video with a pink peacock…yes pink and alive…so I thought of you reworking the traditional colours of a peacock pattern. Of course you changed the house to pink. I am so glad you made this video. I love your flamingo personalizations…thank you for the kind words. 🦉🦩 PS my birthday is four days after yours.
We may need another birthday stitch to celebrate! 🤔
@@ContentedNeedleworkerKim yes please!
Wow Peacock looking so great!! So much stitching! But you know Louisa Barny has a special spot!! Eta wait I forgot the border ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Oops…that comment above yours was for you 🤣
Oh, Kim, you and your stitching is good for the soul. I have been working on the Smith Sampler by The Scarlett House while I watched. I just can’t get enough of your stitching. I am thrilled you will be joining in with Judy and I. Take care, my friend.
Hi Sarah! Isn’t Smith just the most beautiful sampler?! I still love her!
So wonderful to see you today!! Love all of your gorgeous stitching and I'm looking forward to starting our wip in July. I'm sure I'm not the only one in this community that wants to say thank you for making me feel so included in your fun!! Happy stitching my friend!🎂🎂🎂🌻🌹🌸🌺
Our friendship came about because of this stitching community! Such a blessing 💕
Please show us what you’re keeping in your new pink toolbox! Hope your eye heals soon. Must be very uncomfortable.
I need to decorate my toolbox! I have several stitchy boxes that need some 💕. I usually choose to stitch 🤣😉
Hi Kim! Love all your stitching especially the Louisa Barney!!! Also enjoyed your husband’s scripture teaching too!
Thanks Lisa! Congratulations on 1000 plus subscribers!
@@ContentedNeedleworkerKim thanks so much!
Your stitching is by far the most beautiful! I’d really love to know the commentary your husband read from. I’d enjoy reading it myself. I treasure this part of your FlossTube. My husband and I were just discussing fruit of the spirit last week. My husband was reflecting and asked if he was bearing good fruit. We dove into a whole discussion. I’d like to share with my Honey what your Sweetie has taught 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼
Alan said he replied to you, but I don’t see it here 🤔

@@ContentedNeedleworkerKim Thank you so much! I look forward to diving deeper.
🤣🤣💕💕💕
I always enjoy seeing your stitching! I never thought to paint my printers tray! Yours looked so nice! I wondered about your prayer Bible. Were you able to start it?
Thank you! That tray was a mess and already painted a primer gray, so I didn’t feel bad about painting it! Yes, I have tabbed two of my Bibles for reference on different prayers!
Kim - Every time I watch a video of yours my “to do” list gets longer and longer! Your work is beautiful. Question: what thread count did you stitch Blue Skin on? On 40 ct it finishes around 6” x 6” but the piece on your wall looks bigger. Maybe it’s just the angle? Also, I really enjoy the scripture your husband shares. We need to find a sampler that speaks to “the fruit of the spirit.” Wouldn’t that be fantastic?!
That would be fantastic (as long as it’s not a lot of over one letters 😉). My Blueskin is 6 1/2 square, and I did use one strand. I hope it’s on your to do list!
@@ContentedNeedleworkerKim It definitely is!
Nice to see you again. Hope your eye heals soon. If you’d be so kind, what is the sampler behind you up high in a pale frame next to the shelf? Love it.
Thank you! I think you mean Heartstring Samplery Victoria’s Garden!
Thank you , yes that’s the one. Victorias garden. Yours is very pretty. Did you brighten it or are they the called for colors?
I finished it a while ago, so I don’t remember all the specifics. I did share it on prior videos as I was stitching it. I know I made changes in the placement and floss colors 😉
I bought Louisa Barney because I love seeing your progress. I haven’t heard you talk about potential changes you might make. I don’t want to stitch the words in the middle. Are you going to modify the words? If you do will you share your changes?
Oh yay! She’s so beautiful! Yes, I am going to add Scripture to the middle, but not sure which one yet. I will definitely make it available 💕
@@ContentedNeedleworkerKim Thank you!
❤❤❤❤
