Loved your finishes they are great. Good for you for stepping out of your comfort zone & starting a quilt. There is also a quilt kit you can purchase with all the supplies you need & it’s great. She is very talented and so precise.
Your finishes are awesome! I love FQS, Kimberly is a fabulous teacher and they have the best patterns to follow, welcome to quilting!

Thank you! ❤️
Another wonderful flosstube! Thank you for sharing your beautiful projects!❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks Julie! ❤️
Your seams on your quilt blocks are excellent. I love your ffos. I’m a quilter of 22 years and a brand new cross stitcher. It’s always fun to start a new hobby and get gun ho with it.
Yes, it is! Welcome to the world of cross stitch! ❤️
Your framed pieces are great. Let Love Reign is awesome! You encourage me not to be intimidated by Big projects. Keep showing your quilting progress.
Thank you Lisa! Don’t let the big projects scare you! They’re well worth the time and effort. ❤️
Hi! Your projects are always so beautiful and I’m excited where your quilting takes you!

Congratulations on your new adventure of quilting . I am pretty much self taught through UA-cam for my quilting skills , but love doing both quilting and cross stitching
Thank you! UA-cam tutorials are awesome for learning new crafts! ❤️
Great shares today all around! Welcome to the world of quilting. ❤
Thank you! 😊
@@sarahsstitchery 😊
You will excel at quilting. The best advice in any craft is relax... its just fabric. 😊 Great stitching as always.
Thank you Aimee! ❤️
So wel done. I dont know you personally, but i wanted to say to you, that 🎉 i am so proud of you trying new things.
Its so wonderful to see the enthousiasme and twinkel in your eyes, when you talk about your quilt blocks and the success.
Thanks Nicole! I am so proud of myself for finally trying it! ❤️
I’m so excited to see your podcast again! Truly enjoy your content
Thank you for sharing ❤
Thanks Becky! ❤️
Great finishes - it’s such a great feeling. Well done xx
Thanks Stephanie! ❤️
Love your finishes. They are absolutely stunning. Welcome to the world of quilting. I love both stitching and quilting. I want to learn how to knit.
Thanks Stacie!
We’re going to miss seeing you every week when school starts back.
I’ll still be around, but just not as often.
Your pieces from Craft Gallery are stunning! Paula is an excellent source of knowledge & experience; I too, am a couple hrs away but so enjoy the trip there. I’ve always cs but started quilting 9 yrs ago; my friends told me if you can sew a straight line you can do anything!! Yes so true, it’s fun to fall into a new hobby…hmmm quilt retreat next??
I would love to do a quilt retreat one day! ❤️
So many amazing full finishes!! I’m like you, once I fully finish them I can’t put them away. I have a series of all the season displayed because I want to keep staring at them. lol.
Your quilt blocks look awesome! I keep pondering giving it a try too.
Thank you! ❤️
Fabulous video as always. Amazing finishes!! I love your framed pieces. They are so good.
So many beautiful finishes…you should definitely be proud!
I believe that the designer for your pumpkin, ‘Whilst Iris Naps’, has a tutorial for your finish on her website.
You are such a great educator, which makes listening to your videos so enjoyable.
Thank you so much! ❤️
Sarah, your finishes are so beautiful. I especially love Let Love Reign. It is so stunning. I’m glad to hear that you decided to try quilting. It is addicting just like cross stitch. Enjoy the process and have fun❤❤❤❤
Thanks Pauline! ❤️
Your quilt blocks are so good! Love all that you share. So much good stitchy progress 😊
Thanks Aimee! ❤️
All of your FFO's are just lovely and the sewing is something I have always wanted to do more of! I have always been afraid of my sewing machine lol!
I was for a long time too. If I can do it, so can you!
Those blocks look amazing. The first thing I noticed were the seams on the 9 patch. Can't wait to see this all put together. And your framed finishes are gorgeous. So glad you are on summer break so we get to see more content from you. Enjoy your new craft.
Thanks Kathy! ❤️
Hi Sarah. I love all your stitching - it is all so pretty. Enjoy Summer Vacation!!
Thanks Deborah! ❤️
You are on fire!! Great job on all your finishes and on the quilting.
Thank you! 😊
0:03 Beautiful finishes 🎉 I just signed up today at my local quilt store to make my first quilt! I have watched Kimberly's beginner quilt series twice lol. I just need to jump in. Your first 3 blocks look AMAZING! You have inspired me to start that quilt while I wait for my lessens to start.
And you inspired me to order the calendar cubby. Every time I looked before it was sold out. Not today! Need to work some OT 😅 Thank you ❤
Hope you enjoy learning to quilt as much as I have! And that’s awesome that you were able to snag a calendar cubby!
Congrats on a new hobby. Quilting has always seemed so interesting. Maybe one day. Thanks for sharing! Happy Stitching and quilting!.
Thanks Karol! ❤️
Loved seeing all the stitching - beautiful finishes. Love that you’re going to quilt. I’ve been a quilter for at least 35 years. You made that Tiger Lily bag and that’s not a beginner pattern! I’m a multi crafter - stitch, quilt, wool appliqué, crochet and a few months ago I decided to learn to knit. I have to say the knitting is kicking my butt LOL - I will persevere. Quilting is really fun and it’s a great community!
I guess when you put it in the perspective of the Tiger Lily keeper, this is much easier! 😂
Beautiful beautiful finishes, congratulations! Stunning 🤩
Thank you! 😊
Beautiful finishes!! Love the Robin pickens patterns.
Thank you! 😊
Your FFO's are beautiful! LOVE your quilt blocks! Can't wait to see your progress! You had me on the FQS website looking at the beginner patterns! Thanks for that! You're a great enabler!❤
Glad I could help! 😉
You are doing awesome with your quilt blocks and the fabric you chose is very pretty! Love the colors. I have quilted for many years and am glad you are picking it up. I also do cross stitch and have enjoyed your kits, wips and now your finishes.I am wanting to branch out to linen. Right now, I am mostly an Aida 18 stitcher. I am glad I found your channel!
Thank you Jeannette! I’m so glad you found my channel! ❤️
Your finishing pieces are amazing! Lots of work!!!
Thank you so much! ❤️
Yay, Sarah! Your a quilter!! You sew girl!
I’m so excited to be a new quilter! ❤️
Love your quilt blocks and your fabric.
Thank you Alicia! ❤️
Oh Sarah-I’m so excited to hear you are learning to quilt. Your second block is called a nine patch. You did an excellent job at nesting your seams. Great job! I have the Three Things Sampler pattern too. I think I’ll tackle it when I finish Serenity. Thanks for sharing your FFOs. I finally have one FFO. I made a pin cushion for my Mom with the Hummingbird Sampler by Heart in Hand. ❤
Thanks Kay! Serenity is such a beautiful design. Happy stitching! ❤️
OMG your finishes are amazing... so inspiring! Great job on the quilt blocks! I am a multi crafter too... stitching, knitting, quilting... love it all!
Thanks Kathy! ❤️
Great flosstube. And your quilt blocks look awesome!❤
Thanks Xan! ❤️
Your finishes are fantastic! Congratulations!! Your quilt blocks look great! (The nine squares is called a 9 patch.) loved all your WIPs! Happy stitching, Sarah!❤
Thanks Joyce! ❤️
Your FFOs are gorgeous. Totally inspiring me. The MD state fair is coming up, time to finish some things to enter. I'm finishing some quilting today, and stitching while I wait 2hrs at the dealership. Thanks for a flosstube to watch too. It's so boring in the waiting room.
Waiting sucks, but good thing you brought your stitching. Good luck at the fair Maggi! ❤️
Congratulations on quilting. I think you'll love it. Those colors are so pretty, and your blocks look great. Let Love Reign is so pretty. I'm almost done stitching Land That I Love. I started it in 2021, so it's time I finish it. Have a great week.
Thanks Elizabeth! Enjoy putting the last stitches in Land That I Love! ❤️
Beautiful ffo’s! Yay for quilting! One of my first quilts was the shortcake quilt by cluck cluck sew. It’s a jelly roll quilt with straight lines and blocks. I am finding knitting much harder and it seems too much to remember all the things! Glad I love crossstitch!
Thanks Lizzy! ❤️
Your finishes are lovely. I am a finisher, too. If I stitch it, I finish it. I stitch pieces because I want it displayed or gifted, so I don't have a box of unfinished pieces. Now with quilting, I do get behind. 😮 i like watching your videos brcause I enjoy seeing you stitch and finish. ❤
Thanks Lynn! I don’t love finishing, but I do love displaying my work! ❤️
I love all your WIPs and finishes! I just bought the wood calendar kit from P&P today! All I need now is a finished project to display in it, hah! I’m new to cross stitching, but I’ve been a quilter for several years. Quilting is a wonderful craft to learn, and I agree, Fat Quarter Shop is a great place to start. It’s a bit more expensive than cross stitching, but when you complete your first quilt, you will have such a sense of accomplishment! Good luck, and have fun learning your new craft.
Thanks Mary! ❤️
I just love your fabric for quilt 🤩.
Thank you! 😊
Let love reign looks so beautiful ❤️ and the frame is perfect
Thank you Laura! ❤️
❤ ❤❤ Sarah, your heirloom piece looks stunning on that frame and yes when I finish I just want to see it !But then I put it under the bed box 😅 awww you framed it beautifully, wow you are amazing and don’t apologize for the content because we all love enjoy it ❤ congratulations on all the finishes !
Thank you Milka! I love the little sheep stitch you gave me and now I can see it all the time in my craft room! ❤️❤️❤️
Your quilt blocks look perfect!!
I have good friends who encourage me and give me confidence! 😉❤️
Love your stitching. Excited for your new hobby. I am also a quilter and have spent a lot of my son's inheritance at FQS!
😂😂😂
Love all your ffo's they are gorgeous!!!! You have been very busy wish I had the stitchy bug I need to find my mojo espcially when we have stitiching to do for the PEP rally!!!!! /so proud of your quilting you are doing an awesome job wish we lived closer I would love to help you learn how to quilt!!! Have fun and take care ❤Candy
Ugh, I haven’t started my Pep Rally stitching yet. 😩 There’s still time though. See you in Michigan soon!
Great job on your quilting!!
Thank you! 😊
I did the FQS beginner quilt as well. It was great. I have the top all pieced and just have to quilt and bind it. Enjoy your new hobby.
It’s a great tutorial isn’t it?
Your FFO’s are all gorgeous! I desperately need to get FFO-ing. 🥴🤣 Happy Stitching and sewing!
Thanks Kim! ❤️
Great job at quilting.
Thank you! ❤️
Gorgeous stitches, Sarah!
Thank you! 😊
Beautiful finished pieces. You must be so pleased. And you are totally an enabler 😂I’ve bought the blue jay pattern as the colours are so pretty. Well done with your quilting pieces. I wouldn’t know where to start. Love the fabrics you picked.
You will love stitching the blue jay! The colors are so vibrant! ❤️
I was just talking about looking to tweak my floss drops to something thinner for project bags and these are perfect. Ordered! Thanks for sharing. ❤ -Stephanie
Yay, I hope they work as well for you as they do for me!
Your finishes are wonderful! You should be so proud of them. I would love to learn how to stitch using the sewing method. I wanted to do that this summer while home from teaching, but I was diagnosed with breast cancer and am having chemotherapy and my brain isn’t functioning properly so I’ll have to wait until next summer. And congratulations on starting quilting. It is so much fun. Your blocks are perfect. I also have the purple flower box that sits behind you on your counter 😊. Thank you for answering the questions you receive (Sarah W had asked you for me about your tags a few weeks ago….shes such a great friend 😉). Look forward to your next video. ❤❤❤
Paula, I am so sorry to hear about your diagnosis. I hope the chemo is working well and that you’ll be able to get back to normal activity soon. The sewing method is pretty easy once you get the hang of it, but just take your time and start slowly. When I first started learning to stitch in hand, I would do it for a few minutes at a time until I felt comfortable enough with it to go for longer stretches.
@@sarahsstitchery thank you Sarah! Unfortunately I can’t return in the fall because chemo will end in October and then 4-6 weeks after that will be the surgery. Then radiation. My hope is to return after Christmas. I am planning to retire after the 2025-26 school year so I must go back this year. Teaching was a career change at 46 so I must teach 20 years for 40% pension. I can tell you are an awesome 4th grade teacher. Your students are lucky to have you 💕
I was finally able to order the calendar cubby!
Let Love Reign is gorgeous!
Good for you learning something new. I'm learning how to knit socks. I took my first class on Saturday.
Glad you were able to snag a calendar cubby! Hope the sock knitting is going well!
Let Love Reign looks amazing, Sarah!
Thank you! ❤️
Love the framed finishes, they are lovely. I am trying to get back to my stitch from stash but that strawberry mini mattress is so adorable.
Thank you! ❤️
OMG - We are on the same wave length. I'm working on the Robin series, going to put all four on the same cloth I think. I am 3/4 done with Let Love Reign and going to work on my first quilt this weekend. Love all your finishes and enjoy your content!
Great minds think alike, Lisa! ❤️
Of course you should be proud of your finishes!! They are beautiful. Welcome to the quilting world. I have been making quilts most of my adult life. You will love it! Your blocks are perfect! I love your enthusiasm! You will be hooked!
I already am! ❤️
Beautiful finishes!!
Thank you! 😊
Your finishes are gorgeous. Your face lights up when you talk about them. Welcome to the quilting world, it's so much fun!!
Thanks Candie! ❤️
You are doing a great job on your first quilt blocks! Thank you for sharing. I have been wanting to start quilting and like you have been so overwhelmed. I appreciate your advice to start with this quilt and the corresponding tutorials.
You can do it Deb! ❤️
@@sarahsstitchery Thanks for the encouragement!
I love the FQS too, Kimberly Jolly taught me how to cross stitch!!
She’s a good teacher! I see you have started a Flosstube! I’m currently on vacation, so I haven’t had a chance to watch it yet, but it’s on my list for when I get home. ❤️
@@sarahsstitchery ❤️❤️ well I mentioned you in it so I hope you like it!!
I use the exact same gift tags/floss drops from Amazon. They are great. I use 1/2” punch for floss hole. Thanks for sharing all your WIPs, finishes, etc. Your framed pieces are beautiful.
Thank you Mary! ❤️
Great finishes! Congratulations on learning how to quilt! I’m still a newbie quilter but do enjoy it! I’m going to have to listen to Kimberly Jolly’s instructions because your seams aligned perfectly! Mine don’t always align as well!
Her tutorials are very precise and easy to follow!
I want to learn to quilt so bad. Your stitching and your channel is awesome. You are a master enabler I love it but my budget is screaming lol.
Same! 😂
Welcome to the quilting world! I quilt and stitch for over 60 years so remember we all started with one seam and one stitch! You’ll love the journey! Your finishes are gorgeous!
Thank you Nancy! ❤️
Always enjoy your videos! Love seeing the fabrics you use as we do not get this in South Africa. If we do, it's imported and far too expensive. But, I love Aida still. Your stitching is lovely and your finishes were a joy to see.
Thank you Nicole! ❤️
The FQS beginner tutorial is so great! I bought the fabric kit and went through the tutorial and was hooked! She is an amazing teacher! Have fun with it!
Thanks Lisa! ❤️
Thank you🙏 for taking time out of your summer vacation to share your beautiful Finishes 🤩 Many blessings 🙏to you and your family. Enjoy the rest of your summer 🍦🍦🍦 Keep Creating 🙏🙏🙏✌️
Thanks Gladys! ❤️
Beautiful finishes! Paula does wonderful framing…too bad I didn’t stop in the store on Saturday, would have been fun to meet you ladies. -Anne
That would have been fun! It won’t be my last trip there. ❤️
Hello! New subscriber here ❤ I loooved your wip video. It was amazing lol. Soooo many awesome things! It made.my head spin how many wips you have! But they are all gorgeous.
Thank you for subscribing! I’m so glad you enjoy my content!
Oh my your Let Love Reign is amazing, I think I may need to get the chart and start it! Would you mind sharing your color conversions to the brighter colors, your choices are gorgeous!!!
Thanks Carol! I replaced the green color with DMC 469 and the blue is DMC 924.
Another great video - thanks Sarah, love your finishes and your choice of color for your new adventure in quilting!! I have been quilting for years and can't resist the yummy fabrics 😊
I can see how fabric shopping could be an addiction!
Welcome to rabbit hole of Quilting! My Aunt taught me via "snail mail"! No You Tube when I started. She would send me books and letters and when we could get together in person she taught me more! It is so much fun and relaxing (just like my cross stitch!) I have been know to go into Joanns or Hobby Lobby just to "fondle" the fabric... It's certainly a stress reliever!!! You are doing a fabulous job and I look forward to more!!!! Enjoy your summer vacation!
Thanks Christine! ❤️
I’ve been wanting to start quilting for a couple of years & have been so hesitant you may have inspired me to give it a shot. I do order from the FQS…so we’ll see thanks for the great video 😊
You can do it! We can be quilting newbies together! ❤️
@@sarahsstitchery thanks you’re so sweet 😀
Yay for quilting! I love when fellow stitchers get in on quilting! Welcome!
Also, thank you for all the enabling!😂😂😂
I finally caved to the peer pressure! 😂
@@sarahsstitchery AWESOME!!!❤❤❤
Love your videos and so excited for you to start quilting. I fell down that rabbit hole back in 2021 and have loved it. Quilts can be overwhelming but I love making tablerunners. Have fun and keep sharing all your crafty endeavors
