Sally! Greetings from Dallas! I really look forward to your flosstubes! Loving all your WIPs, especially the Barbara Ana’s. You’re so enjoyable and charming! Thanks so much!!!
Thank you so much Michael! I'm pleased I can keep you company. You have been mentioned in a few other Flosstubes recently so it was nice to see you comment again on mine. Some more Barbara Ana's to come over the next month or two. Happy Stitching 🧵🪡❤️
Beautiful finishes and wonderful progress on your wips Sally. Sounds like a couple of busy weeks ahead enjoy stitching when you can find the time. It's wonderful how you are so involved with the play and the support you give your daughter and other kids. Take care
Thank you Ruth. It is good to have some time every evening to stitch and wind down. I turn my phone onto silent and make it my time! The show is such hard work but it is also such good fun and the joy you see with the children taking part is worth all the effort. Happy Stitching my dear friend x
Loved watching you as always. Your mum stitch is so sweet and what heirloom for future generations, you can see how much it's been loved. I didn't skip this time and no there are not long at all. ❤
Thanks Sue! I do hope future generations love and cherish things as much as we do now. Thank you for watching and commenting. See you soon xxx
Thank you Sally for sharing your WIP's! Happy Stitching 😊
Thanks Esther - happy stitching 🪡🧵❤️
Sorry for the loss of your chicken. She sounded like she was beautiful. She will always have a special place in your heart. Thank you for sharing your holiday. Your projects are lovely.😊
Thank you Peggy - she was beautiful and she is missed. Special place in my heart and on the chicken wall with everything I will have stitched! Thanks for watching and happy stitching 🧵🪡🐔
Great video. Thank you so much for sharing everything.
Thanks for joining me! Happy Stitching until next time 🪡🧵❤️
Thank you for sharing your stitching!
Thanks for watching and happy stitching 🧵🪡❤️
Sounds like a great trip. Love your finish and all of your other projects. I'm so sorry for the loss of your chicken. Good luck to you and your daughter with the show. I hope it goes well.
Thank you Maryann. Dress rehearsal went well yesterday and tomorrow is the first night of 3. Hectic few days but fun!! Happy Stitching 🧵🪡❤️
I say the stitches aren’t “out” they’re just “unique”! How fun to know no one will have a piece quite like yours ❤😊
Oh 100%. I always strive to have a bit of uniqueness to my work normally 🤣🤣🤣 it's funny when you look back at a finish and you can't remember where the bit you went wrong is so no one else is ever going to pick it out are they 🫣🤣
Wow! Sally. I grew up in Raytown missouri part of Kansas City area. Such a small world. Love your flosstube. Thans for sharing
Oh I had to go and have a look on Google where Raytown is! Other side of the city to me. I was in Cove North off Barry Road. It is 40 years ago so I can't remember a huge amount though 😆
Another great video Sally. All of your stitching is beautiful, really love the patterns you are working on. Sorry to hear about your chickens. Great hearing about your trip to London. I grew up in Manchester and had many trips to London over the years. When ever we make it back from Australia previously and now New Zealand, we always make sure that we have a few days in London to explore as it is one of our favourite places in the world to visit. Look forward to your next video.
Was it Shakespeare or Samuel Johnstone that said ' A man that is tired of London is tired of life'! It's a great city and I love visiting it but it is great to get home after all the hustle and bustle. Happy Stitching 🧵🪡❤️
I'm so sorry for your loss. I stopped your video to order Floral Hen - so pretty. I look forward to both your videos and @sewmesarah. You are both so cheerful, real, and inspiring. I am in Canada but had not heard of Roxy floss. I really appreciate you supporting a Canadian floss!
Thank you Terri. Floral Hen is gorgeous isn't it - I finished it last night! Love, love, love Roxy Floss! Happy Stitching! Xx
Thanks for sharing your stitching 🍀🍀
Thank you for joining me! Happy Stitching 🧵🪡❤️
Was lovely to meet you! And find a new flosstuber to watch 😊. Hopefully will see you next year 🤞 and I loved our table so much!
So lovely to meet you Zoe - you did well to listen to all the middle age moans lol. Will def see you next year if you are at the first weekend as have booked already for both the Saturday and Sunday! Happy Stitching x
@flossysewsandgrows 😂. I'm going to the first weekend too, will be lovely seeing you again 😊 x
Great video, lovely to see what you've been working on.
Thank you Amy! Thanks for joining me and happy stitching 🧵🪡❤️
Sorry for your loss. It was so lovely to meet you at the Wrexham retreat. Your stitching is amazing such lovely designs 🥰xx
Thank you Paula! Lovely to meet you too and I will no doubt see you at The Big Stitch!
Lots of lovely stitching Sally. You should be very proud of yourself for the progress you’ve made on your 50 for 50. I’m in total awe of anyone who can do it! If I can get Garden of Dreams finished I’ll join you and Sarah with The Light. Happy stitching 😊
Thank you Sally! I am enjoying the 50 new starts but just occasionally I do think that I'm not quite ready to start something - normally when I'm not far from a finish on something! So it will be nice to not have the pressure of it next year and I will no doubt have a fair few wips 🙈
Great to see you as always Sally 😊 and thank you , sorry to hear about your chickens x
Thank you Rosa. Happy Stitching and I hope you enjoy the threads! Xx
It’s a terrible wet Sunday here - so lucky for me, stitching and you! Although I am fast running short of episodes…. Take care, Nic x
🥰🥰🥰
Ah! Another groovy chicken (rooster!!). Love him!
🐓😍🐓😍🐓😍
Thank you for another lovely video. I’m sorry you lost Ginny ❤ the Floral Hen will be a precious tribute ❤
Thank you Kirsti. It has been lovely stitching up Floral Hen - a small one so already finished it. Yes a nice reminder. Xx
Sweet chicken pattern, definitely you! Sorry to hear of Jenny. So hard to lose feathered and furry friends. Loved seeing your progress and 'Mum-stitch' as well as hearing about your trip. Glad you had a lovely time!
The chicken pattern is cute isn't it! I managed to finish it yesterday too 🤣 Happy Stitching my lovely 🧵🪡❤️
My lovely friend ❤️ Even though you were so busy, you got lots of stitching done! 🥳🥳
Will definitely join you on that Autumn pattern - that‘s sitting in my pile of to be stitched pieces 😬
Love the tooth fairy pillow from your mom 😍😍 Have a wonderful weekend and see you soon ❤️
I always make some time at the end of the day to get an hour or two of stitching in. I need it as my downtime! Even busier this week but quieter times will come! Happy Stitching my lovely friend 🧡🪡🧵❤️
I will be stitching the floral hen with you 😊
Oh wonderful! If you are on Instagram please tag me so i can see your progress. I am trying for a finish this week but I think it is bigger than it seems! Happy Stitching 🐔🪡🧵❤️
Loved catching up with you Sally. So sorry about Ginny 😢 that tooth fairy pillow by your mum is so sweet, not surprised it’s much loved!! Hopefully see you soon. Take care lovely xxx
Thanks Elaine. Catch up soon! Xxx
KCMO! and yes, weirdly there are so many cross stitch companies in the Kansas City area.
I'd love to visit the area again but I am sure so much will have changed that I won't recognise anything at all! I was very lucky to travel so much at such a young age!
Sorry for your loss. I have 5/6 cricket collections (including the four seasons) but haven’t stitch one yet 😂. I picked up with thy hands yesterday and put a few stitches in and then picked up another project. I couldn’t settle yesterday and ended up stitching on 4 projects but at a least I completed some goals. Happy stitching Nat
Well I can feel a few more SAL's to do together in the pipeline (maybe for 2025 now lol) I've had a day or two of not being able to settle on something. It always seems to happen after I've filmed as I almost 'start again' and try and pick something up I've not stitched on in the previous two weeks! Happy Stitching 🧵🪡❤️
HiSally i so enjoyed your video today and of course hearing your whirlwind trip to london. I have been lucky enough to have visited london 2 times..once with my husband and the second trip was christmas break just before covid with my oldest daughter..i can relate to tired feet for sure..sad to hear about losing your chicken- our pets really become part of the family..wishing you very good luck with your daughters dance show…i was costume master for the high school musicals for many years and it is a lot of work!!…happy few weeks and happy stitching as well Cheers!
Thank you so much for watching. Right in dance show mode now with first performance tonight. I have managed to avoid costumes but have people to deal with instead 😖 It's all fun in the end and the kids have such an amazing experience. Looking forward to it being quieter by the weekend and I can get back to stitching! Xxx
@@flossysewsandgrows GOOD LUCK☘️
Great start on the rainbow Quaker, I loved doing mine I’m sad it’s finished I might have to do the other one where there’s less negative space 😆 hopefully I’ll see you at next years Wrexham retreat if I go 😁
I'm sad you're finished too as I enjoyed seeing your progress. Mine will take a while I am sure as soooo many other projects to fit in. I've made some good progress on it this week as there are no new starts until the end of the week. Happy Stitching 🧵🪡❤️
@@flossysewsandgrows you can watch updates of my autumn project instead it took me days to get into that, I do have a new start planned this weekend! 😱 oooh lovely I’ll look forward to seeing more progress don’t forget to tag me 😁
Il join you on the Light BA ❤
Yay!!! Can't wait xx
Shugborough, not Shrugborough! Less than 5 minutes from me! I would say you should have come to say hello, but there isn’t really space for that many people in my tiny house!
Of course it is lol. Having a menopausal moment. I did wonder if close to you - we had planned it very last minute. It was a case of 'shall we do normal M6 or toll road' and then where can we stop if we one or the other. Good to finally visit there as been on to do list for a long time. See you soon xx
Awwwww thanks ❤ I feel honoured to be mentioned 😂 it was sooooo lovely meeting you, hopefully see you again and get more time for a good natter 😊😊 not that it matters at all lol but I’m stitching Remember Me on 25ct 1 over 1 😉😉 will you be going to Wrexham next year ? Lovely that you’re doing the floral chicken for Ginny ❤ xx
You know I knew as I said about Remember Me I had got it wrong lol. There are usually a couple of occasions during filming when that happens 🤣 Wrexham booked next year for 2 days - I'm the same weekend as you too! Happy Stitching! Xxx
@@flossysewsandgrows😂🤣😂 great news that you’ll be at Wrexham next year 😊 hopefully get to chat properly then 😉🧵🪡🧵😉 sorry for not replying sooner but had surgery on eyes 👀 and not been on phone or iPad etc but starting to do a bit now 😊🤞 actually tried a tiny bit of stitching yesterday for first time and it wasn’t too bad (having to wear readers 🤓) hoping can do a bit more now each day - missed it sooooo much ☹️😳 xx
