Thanku so much for another great flosstube..I really appreciate you sharing your stitching..it makes me feel less isolated...I look forward to your next flosstube!🌹
Thank you so much!!! We are so thankful for this community and our fellow stitchers. What we would we do without stitching.......it is such a balm these days!
Sweet FlossTube...I have this “problem” that I love everything you two showed...praying for everyone in FlossTube land...best wishes and happy stitching you two❤️
What a sweet video. You 2 make my heart happy! Love all your stitching and planning and the fun you have with each other. Such a lift to my weary mind! Now, I have to find my prison / desert island pieces. Thank you so much form making my day brighter. ❤️❤️❤️ Be safe and be well!
Love all the pretty stitching - thanks for sharing! My virtual stitching group is going to show-and-tell our desert island charts tonight on zoom. I thought it was an excellent idea. Ya'll bring me a lot of joy - blessings to you both. xoxo
Stitch what makes you comfortable and brings you joy is the best saying. You have me thinking about what I would take to a desert island. Really enjoy your updates, you both are so inspiring. I'm not a millionaire but will do my best to make small orders. Loved seeing your older pieces Brenda, they are so precious and have good memories.
Thank you for brightening a very long day. I can’t even put into words how much you ladies make me smile. Laura your “filthy animals”comment is a classic! Be safe and happy stitching
Oh dear. I did cross stitch maybe 20 years ago. I was going through some boxes and found some things I did. Then I realized, 🥁.......I’m a serial starter! But wise yet, three or four starts are very small and I have no clue what they are. I’ll be frogging those! My sister introduced me to floss tube so I’m hooked again and I love you two. Cannot wait to see you each week.
We voluntarily locked ourselves down at beginning of March. Thank goodness for stash! Funnily, I kitted up My Heart Can Rest right before listening to your video and I was glad to hear Laura loves Winter Brew because that is what I kitted up. PTP Heartland (called for) is not to be found anywhere. Stitching is what gets me up in the morning in these troubled times and a video from you two is a virtual lifeline. Thank you so much!! You are the best!
Thanks so much Jill!!!!! Part of me wishes I could be on lock down at home and just stitch all day, but I will just keep thinking that going to work will pay for future stash and retreats! I would pick Winter Brew over Heartland for sure!!! I bet yours looks so beautiful!!! I am sticking with Heartland only because that is what we were given at retreat with that project. Take good care of yourself and happy stitching!!!
I was so excited to see you on flosstube...thanks for sharing your finishes...and entertaining us with your banter...you two are amazing! Stay safe and see you next time!
You two are such a tonic. I could watch you all day. I'm loving the Desert Island Stitches idea. Can't wait to see more. Brenda, I finished my All Joys for Thine. Yay! Much love from the UK.
Thanks Donna.....if we did not have our stitching I think we would be in worse shape. I know I would. It certainly keeps me going these days. Stay well and stitch on!!! Hugs!
What? NO TAB? So nice of you to come first this week. Really needed your cheery faces weekly! Great stitching and colors! You know, I just cleaned thru 900 patterns and realized how very much my tastes have changed. Whittled it down to a couple of hundred, but probably still too many! Happy and safe week to you both!!
Yay bonus video! Thanks for putting in extra time to give us this pick-me-up. My rationale for continuing to spend on cross stitch is that I'm not using as much gas, we aren't eating out and I'm not wearing out my work clothes. Brenda, fun to see your hardanger work! I wasn't brave enough to try it but always admired those designs.
So good to see you two today. Besides church which we can’t go to these days, I associate Sundays with watching you talk about beautiful stitching and inspiring me to stretch my skill set. So, today I’m going to work on Dear Daughter by Blackbird. I did three of the borders months ago and haven’t been back yo it since. Now would be a good time since my daughter’s birthday is in July. I have to tell you that my husband was nearby looking at his phone and when Brenda said that she could switch endive and camomile he looked up and wanted to know what in the world she was cooking! I assured him that no cooking was involved.🙂
Thank goodness all the hoarders left you mini Nilla wafers. I haven’t been in a stitchy mood. Lots of nervous energy so have been cleaning like a mad woman! Stay safe!! Love you ladies!! ❤️
I wish I would get an urge to clean the whole house and organize.....nope, I just have the urge to stitch and watch TV. Maybe we could do a role reversal??? For like two days? Anyway, I hope that you get your stitching mood back ASAP. Hugs to you Kenda!
Just finished your video this morning. I had to laugh when ya’ll talked about cutting back on obtaining stash because I got the TALK yesterday! The Hubby just does not know how much I have been resisting these last couple of weeks! Thanks for all you are doing by keeping all our spirits high with your positivity and awesome stitching!
Thanks so much Robin!!!! Oh, how I hate that talk....but we have to be realistic in these tough times. Thank goodness for stash!!!!!! If I would have known this was coming I would have kitted up every chart I bought! Hugs!
Good to see you today. I've been quilting for a couple of years so I have quite a stash of fabric. I decided to do a quilt and it was REALLY nice to be able to go to my stash to join a QAL. I've picked up cross stitch again after a couple of years so I have floss, but not much fabric. Trying to buy a little every few days in March to celebrate my birthday month. Have a great week.
Thanks Lindi! Glad you are stitching again!!! Stitching and quilting are such wonderful pursuits!!! Hope you had a happy birthday month despite everything going on!!!
Thank goodness for the two of you. Always enjoy seeing your charts, your finished items and your plans ahead. It is amazing how a pandemic can change our lives so quickly and our thinking and what we enjoy at this time. It is tough, but I hope we get through it all soon. Laura, the tip on using Niagara magic sizing was my suggestion, I think, that you saw on Facebook. Make sure you get magic sizing and not starch as the sizing is lighter and gives the linen just enough firmness. So happy to have a visit with you both today. I want you to know I am doing my share to help the shops during this time, and I will never live long enough to stitch it all. Take care, be safe and wishing you stay healthy, Hugs, Norma in Boise, ID
Thanks so much Norma!!!! I hope I got the magic sizing....I will have to check. Thank you for supporting those shops!!! We all have more than enough to stitch, but we need choices!!! Take very good care of yourself!!! Hugs!
Hooray! An extra Brenda and Laura episode! So happy!! Please be careful on your commutes, ladies. I appreciate that you still have to work, but you are treasures and treasures should be carefully guarded. "No, I mean *see* it, like, purchase it!" Oh Brenda, I know just what you mean! "Nobody told me you were this talented" sporfle I'm so glad you didn't start with samplers. All the older and different pieces show your history and development. Plus they make stitching rooms much more cozy "When we do it again *in real life*..." Thank you, ladies. *hugs*
Thank you for the giggles today. It’s been hard to focus on stitching lately. I’m lucky to be able to stay home but too much worry on my mind. So....”what I’ve been into” is kitting and organizing my market haul into my stash. I too placed an additional order to my LNS. Our mini retreat was canceled for April but managed to still shop online. My LNS is the Stitchery Nook in Osage Iowa. It’s two hours away but it’s a sweet little town with a great store. Love you both. Love your videos!
Taking a two hour drive to Osage sounds so good right now!! Of course, it would be longer than two hours for me and they are probably not open....but just the thought of it makes me so happy!! Glad you are spending time kitting and organizing. Just try to stay in the stitching world in your head as much as possible. That is what we are doing! Sending hugs! Thanks Sue!
This is so full of fun despite these covid times a year later. A real tonic ❤️ the final “wash your hands you filthy animals” absolutely got me in stitches. It a family phrase of ours. Lol 😂 love you both so much 🌈🌈🌈
Oh, so happy to see you posted a video! Your back and forth banter is just so fun! Comfort stitching for sure since we now have to social distance through April! 😬 Be well you two, you certainly brighten my day! XOXO
Thanks Terri!!!! I hope that when this is over you and Robin can come over for a visit! Thank goodness we can all stay in touch via the internet. For that, we are lucky. Sending you a big hug!
Floss Tube and stitching are true blessings right now. Thank you for being a bright spot for us! Oh, Laura, I spray my WDW with Best Press and iron it before stitching to help stiffen it up a bit.
Thanks so much! I am hearing that Best Press is the way to go! I will have to check that out (when the world returns to normal). Hope you are well and Happy Stitching!
THANK YOU! THANK YOU, both for bringing a bright light into our lives at such a time . Enjoy watching all your videos and then I think I need all of that you show
Thank you two for brightening my day. You both are encouraging and are providing a whole lot of temptation. Please know you are appreciated for your efforts.
What a wonderful surprise to see another video, it was much needed. Had to close my small business this week and my stress is off the charts. Taking my mind off things was a blessing. Thank you!!! ❤️
Oh Karen, I am so sorry to hear that. I hope and pray that you can get back to normal as soon as possible. We need to take our minds off of the dire situation some of the time and so I am glad we were able to do that for a few minutes. Sending you a big hug!!!
Calling all the Millionaire Stitchers to step up their buying and boost the needlework economy🤣😂 I could get use to the Brenda and Laura show every week😍 Thanks ladies for hopping on today! You look like seasoned pros this week with the videos! I’ve tried to be a monogamous stitcher like Brenda this week, but alas I’ve been a dual monogamous stitcher, close enough though right? I’ve been working on WTNT Saltbox Quilt Sampler, and Liz Matthews Quilt Tree. I’m starting AH to EE this week by Kathy Barrick because I love all thing Quaker and quilts!!!! Hope you guys have a great week, and here’s hoping we see you next week❤️
Brought a smile to my face once again! Thanks for making my day! Brenda, loved seeing all of your lovely smalls! Keep them coming. Have a blessed day ladies!
Thanks so much Terri!!! I bet you were interested in Brenda's smalls!!! You do such beautiful finishing work so it was fun for you to see some of Brenda's history in finishing. Sending you a big hug!
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. Look forward to every video you make. After watching the 2 of you I’m either looking for patterns,fabric and thread or ordering.
Another fun video, ladies! So glad you are making it work during this crazy time! Thanks Laura for picking up and showing Miss Dickinson :) and I have my Mary Barres chart right next to me ready to order threads too! After seeing Carol's start I was just simply stunned by the beauty of it. Don't know when I can stitch all these beauties and my new ones too but it will be fun to try. It is so important to support the shops right now, especially those without online shops... after I saw your IG for Dyeing to Stitch I rang them right up! and a few other shops too. I am not a millionaire for sure but can order a bit here and there and show my support. We all have to come together during these times. Stay home and stay safe and keep stitching! Thanks for the smiles :)
Thank you for watching and commenting Krista!!!! I love all of your market releases!!!!! Yes, we sure have lots of beautiful samplers to work on....no shortage of those. Thanks for calling DTS! One of our main shops!!! I hope to be able to place a few orders myself in the not too distant future. Sending you a big hug!!! Hope you are listening to the Stones right now!
Too short...loved seeing you ladies anyway!! Always good stuff...Brenda those previous finishes; WOW!! SO many treasures!! Love that section...3 patterns to take to prison\island stitching!! I would definitely take a BAD (a big one) , LDS, and a Rosewood Manor!! HAPPY STITCHING TODAY AND EVERYDAY IN 2020!!
Thank you, Brenda and Laura. I hope you realize how we look forward to seeing you both! ( a lot!) Very sorry your families are being impacted financially. Love you two, your friendship and your videos.
And again you two ladies have topped the charts of my flosstube watching. You ladies have now totally shoved me into the blackbird world. That’s it I am ordering that sew along book.. and the ohh la la! Thanks for sharing your world of beautiful stitching. Hugs ~Victoria
I am so excited that you are ordering those two books!!!! They are so wonderful. You could probably stitch for two years straight out of them! Enjoy!!! and stay well!
It was wonderful to see you two again. I love the idea of desert island pieces. It is impressive you could narrow it down to 3 projects. Thanks for keeping me company while I stitch.
What a nice surprise to see you both again! Thanks for the smiles :). And now you’ve made me want to go through my stash and pick my desert island pieces :). I’m so thankful for my needlework to keep my mind distracted from everything going on these days. And Floss Tube is a blessing :)
Brenda - I love all your ‚long ago stitched‘ Treasures and I too remember the times, when Just Nan and Emie Bishop where „the It“ ❣️ It’s funny, how things like fashions return - I’ve seen many Russian Ladies now stitching Just Nan. But still looking at all the back-when-stitched: they are still holding their everlasting Beauty and your work is just magnificent! ❣️
Now I am going to be thinking about my list for desert island/prison stitching!! You both had great choices. I have to say that Dutch Beauty is one of the samplers I would like to stitch in the next ten years. I am working on And They Sinned by Examplars of the Heart as the first of the older classic samplers I would like to stitch. Thanks as always. Stay safe and well and happy stitching!
I love you gals. Thanks for video. “Prison Island picks”. Kind of like Alcatraz 😳. I would definitely want the biggest sampler ever! Be safe and stay healthy.
I cannot tell you how excited I was when I got a notification yesterday morning that you put up a video. At that same moment Carol texted me to tell me. Holy moly, we had to race to get ready to watch together. I think my three prison, desert island pieces would be Ann Dale, Consider the Lillies and Jane Tindall. I had better be stranded a long time. ;)
I hope you and your families are doing well. Thank you for the bonus video today! As always I really enjoy videos, especially the three you’d take with you on a desert island or to prison! 😁
So happy you two are still doing videos! Wow, just wow on your previous finishes! So amazing and inspiring...and love your charts and starts you showed. Stay safe and happy stitching.
I was so excited to see the notification that you two made a video! Those colors you kitted for your Sewing Club book, Brenda, made my heart skip! Love it! I also loved the Just Nan scissor case and your other projects 😍! Laura, I laughed when you called out those “rich stitchers” to support the needlework stores. I am certain you would be doing so, if you could!
Hi sweet ladies, I'm delighted you did a floss tube today!!!! YAY!! Loved every minute of the video. Thanks for sharing with us. Love you both!!!! Happy stitching!
You gals are just the best!! As a nurse, every time you say "STAT" it just cracks me up! Thanks for sharing all your beautiful things and yourselves with all of us!!
Exactly what I said to myself. ..stat. ..get on it...also a nurse.....watched your video on the night shift...hospital up here has emptied out and waiting for the pandemic patients.
@@annettelanglois7760 Wow....I can't believe you were watching under those circumstances....what I mean is I can't believe our FT was something that perhaps helped take your mind off things for a few minutes. Sending you lots of love!!! I also call going to the bathroom...needing to void. I used to work in a hospital for many years and I miss that work environment very much! Take good care of yourself!
Fun video you two. Had to watch In increments hub wanted to watch a movie , eating , I swear everytimeI sit to watch flosstube life interrupts.🌷🌷🌷 Be safe.
Thanks Mary Jo! Yes, I know...I could watch floss tube all day, but I have to share TV with my husband. It is pretty funny, because he knows who Nicola, Gary, Vonna and Nicole are now!!!
Just such a bright spot in a bark time. Love you both and thank you for the laughs and for the looks at the lovely pieces. The prison/ desert island idea is genius!😍
You don’t know what it means to those of us who are so anxious about what is going on in our world. I am in CT, and the situation is very much real here in our state. Watching your video is welcome reprieve. I truly enjoy your wonderful sense of humor and amazing talent. Thank you for continuing to push forward. I am sorry to hear your families have been negatively effected. I am praying for all of you. 💕
Thank you for such a kind comment Bunny. We hope that you are doing okay and staying safe and healthy. Thank goodness we have stitching to keep our minds occupied. Sending you a big hug!
Love you ladies...thank you for the laughs & all of the stash sharing. Love the desert island/prison lists. Laura, I got vanilla wafers yesterday too! 😁 paula in Midland, Tx
Hi Ladies! Now more than ever, you two are bringing joy to many stitchers all over the world! THANK YOU 🌷 Now I need to go through my stash and pick out deserted island/prison projects. 😜🏝️
Love you ladies. After last week's video, I e-mailed my LNS (Acorns and Threads) and ordered that fabulous Blackbird book. Can't wait to get it. You two are an inspiration and welcome diversion to my day. Thank you and happy stitching!
I am so excited that you are getting that book!!!! and lucky you to have Acorns and Threads be your LNS!!!!! I am going to get there someday!!! Thanks for your kind words Melissa!
You ladies are always a delight! I hope when this is all done ✅ I can meet you when you do your retreat in Shipshewana! Please ladies stay safe! I love all your projects. I took off from flying the month (flight attendant) of April and might do the same for May. My next project is All of Joys of Thine...and I also started Kringles! 😘
Thank you Denise!!! I hope we are all in Shipshewana in October!!!!! Glad you are taking some time off from flying and your next project is a great one!!! Happy Stitching!
I just realized why it is that I just love watching you two. It's like being a "fly on the wall" when two very close friends get together to craft. I almost feel voyeuristic (in a good way!) watching you two show your projects and discuss your finishes and laugh together. There's just an amazing dynamic between you two and it's just so enjoyable to watch. Thank you so much for sharing your friendship with us... and everything else too!
That is high praise indeed!!!! I have found that I always listen in on stitching conversations between people at retreats or at shops. I just love to hear what everyone has to say. Thank you so much for your kind words Amy!!!
Good to see you guys on an off week! My two cents on AotH....don't change the colors. I am done with mine, didn't change a single color. I know the January block seems a little dull, but believe me, one you start getting the other blocks in, you will love it! Laura, I have had Dutch Beauty kitted for years. Have never started. I have Maritime White for it. Stay well girls!
Thank you so much for such an inspiring video. My husband's walked in when you were saying good bye and love you and he said "what a loving group" and my response was "yes, we're BFFs forever! " Though we never met, you make us feel like friends and I appreciate that and the time that you put into your videos. Stay well, be safe! Happy stitching! Lori at Once Upon a Stitch
Thanks so much Lori!!!! Hopefully we shall meet one day and we will be fast friends I am sure of it!!! Sending you a big hug!! and a friendly hello to your husband!
Thought I was going to die laughing when Laura said “filthy animals” after Brenda said wash your hands!!! Fun as always and drooling by the time the video is over! ❤️
I am not a sampler stitcher, but I really enjoy watching your floss tubes. Stay safe. I am from Northampton Co, Pa and we are in a lock down situation. No one is allowed out after 8pm and we can only go out for food and medicine. This shall pass.
Don't know if someone mentioned already but Best Press is stuff you spray to take out wrinkles and add some sizing. It evidently doesn't leave a residue in your fabric that will cause damage after awhile. This is per Vonna. I had never heard of it before her. Loved your video as always!
You two ladies are fantastic. You make my day and always keep me smiling. This morning I was looking at Snow Globe. Now I want to go get it out and start it. It is all kitted up. Stay safe and see you next week.
Thanks for sharing again today and for all the laughs. I enjoyed seeing Brenda's treasures from long ago. Laura cracks me up with her Nilla wafers...can't imagine those with Tab though. Love you both and look forward to next weekend.
Thank you both for this bonus video. It is always fun to see you ladies and what you are stitching up. I think you need a new law to always have a prison stitching chart kitted up and ready to go!
Great idea Angel!!! We should all have an emergency "to go" bag of stitching by the door so if we have to leave in a hurry we have something to take along!!!!!
Once again, thank you for bringing joy and laughter. And now I am going to figure out what fabric and floss I need for some stash patterns and place an order with some shops! 👍💖
Thank you for your video today! I really needed it today. We have been in our homes for two weeks and things are still so uncertain. Your video and the sun shining today makes me happy!
So lovely to see your faces and enjoy your sense of humour. Interesting how we respond. I have been working on Quakers in Holland, then will do a bit of something else and then come back to Quakers. Really want to finish it. Just have the bottom half of the last 2 houses and the last barge section to go. Be warned. There is a lot of stitching in those houses which is why I got behind in the SAL but I’ve found it quite therapeutic at this time
I love seeing older finishes even if they are no longer available. The finishing could be done using any pattern. I’ve driven myself crazy looking for things in the past but no more! Any flower motif could be made into a scissors holder. I stitched a lot of Just Nan and Victoria Sampler in the past and I have some waiting to be stitched. I’ve stitched many biscornu and several of Nan’s biscornu. I made a needle book from Emmy Bishop and several things by Sweetheart Tree. As I’ve gotten older I can’t do the fiddley stuff. I can’t concentrate as much because of medicine so have to stitch things that aren’t as detailed and fussy. So good to see you both today! Stay well!!
Great take on the older charts!!! Yes, you may not be able to get the exact chart, but you can adapt charts you have already. And we always say yes to non detail and non fussy stitching!!!! Hugs!
Thanku so much for another great flosstube..I really appreciate you sharing your stitching..it makes me feel less isolated...I look forward to your next flosstube!🌹
Thank you so much!!! We are so thankful for this community and our fellow stitchers. What we would we do without stitching.......it is such a balm these days!
Sweet FlossTube...I have this “problem” that I love everything you two showed...praying for everyone in FlossTube land...best wishes and happy stitching you two❤️
Thank you Loretta!!! You stay safe too!!!
What a sweet video. You 2 make my heart happy! Love all your stitching and planning and the fun you have with each other. Such a lift to my weary mind! Now, I have to find my prison / desert island pieces. Thank you so much form making my day brighter. ❤️❤️❤️ Be safe and be well!
Thank you Joanie!! I hope you and your family are doing well. I wonder what desert island pieces you picked!!! Sending you hugs!
Love all the pretty stitching - thanks for sharing! My virtual stitching group is going to show-and-tell our desert island charts tonight on zoom. I thought it was an excellent idea.
Ya'll bring me a lot of joy - blessings to you both. xoxo
Thanks so much dear! Did you guys record that episode??? I would love to know what your desert island charts are!!!! Hugs!
Love you both. You are my favorite Floss Tube channel with Saltbox Stitcher a close second.Thanks for a good chuckle today.
Thanks so much Mary Kay!!!!! That is a lovely compliment.
Love you ladies. so funny. So elegant and refined. Such pretty projects and patterns - see you next time, looking forward to it.
Thank you Susie!!! Brenda is elegant and refined...and I am refined about 25% of the time.....Hah!!!
Stitch what makes you comfortable and brings you joy is the best saying. You have me thinking about what I would take to a desert island. Really enjoy your updates, you both are so inspiring. I'm not a millionaire but will do my best to make small orders. Loved seeing your older pieces Brenda, they are so precious and have good memories.
Thanks so much Wendy!!!! Yes, that saying of Brenda's is so smart and wonderful!!!! Thanks for making some purchases!!! Hugs!
Thank you for brightening a very long day. I can’t even put into words how much you ladies make me smile. Laura your “filthy animals”comment is a classic! Be safe and happy stitching
Thanks so much Susie!!!!! Hope you are well and happily stitching today!
Brenda and the Serial Starter Thankfully all is well and I am enjoying all of my stitchy moments
Oh dear. I did cross stitch maybe 20 years ago. I was going through some boxes and found some things I did. Then I realized, 🥁.......I’m a serial starter! But wise yet, three or four starts are very small and I have no clue what they are. I’ll be frogging those! My sister introduced me to floss tube so I’m hooked again and I love you two. Cannot wait to see you each week.
That is wonderful Patricia!!!!! So glad you've got the urge to stitch again!!!! Thank you for your kind words!!!!
Thank-you for making another fun video.I Love everything you showed..You both are so entertaining and are my favorite floss tubers..
Thank you for that extremely nice compliment Connie! We really appreciate it!!!
We voluntarily locked ourselves down at beginning of March. Thank goodness for stash! Funnily, I kitted up My Heart Can Rest right before listening to your video and I was glad to hear Laura loves Winter Brew because that is what I kitted up.

What a wonderful surprise to see a video from you today! Thanks for sharing all your pieces and plans - always a high point to my day! Take care.
Thank you very much Meredith!!!!! Hope you are well!
Thanks for the video! Love seeing you and the desert island pieces.
Thanks Beth!!!!!
I was so excited to see you on flosstube...thanks for sharing your finishes...and entertaining us with your banter...you two are amazing! Stay safe and see you next time!
Thanks so much for your very kind comments!
You two are such a tonic. I could watch you all day. I'm loving the Desert Island Stitches idea. Can't wait to see more. Brenda, I finished my All Joys for Thine. Yay! Much love from the UK.
Thanks so much!!! Great that you finished All Joys for Thine too!!!!! We are sending love to you in the UK!!!
Thanks for the eye candy and morale boosting videos. Seeing you two is a great distraction from all the scary things going on.
Thanks Donna.....if we did not have our stitching I think we would be in worse shape. I know I would. It certainly keeps me going these days. Stay well and stitch on!!! Hugs!
What? NO TAB? So nice of you to come first this week. Really needed your cheery faces weekly! Great stitching and colors! You know, I just cleaned thru 900 patterns and realized how very much my tastes have changed. Whittled it down to a couple of hundred, but probably still too many! Happy and safe week to you both!!
Yay bonus video! Thanks for putting in extra time to give us this pick-me-up.

I wasn't brave enough to try it but always admired those designs.
Oh great rationalization Roberta!!! I might try that....maybe I could order one thing a month? Hope you are well and stitching a lot!!!
You ladies just made me smile and think about something happy and joyful. Tha k you so much for the fun and laughter. God bless you!
Thank you so much Joan!!!!!! Glad we could bring a bit of a respite. Hugs!!!
So good to see you two today. Besides church which we can’t go to these days, I associate Sundays with watching you talk about beautiful stitching and inspiring me to stretch my skill set. So, today I’m going to work on Dear Daughter by Blackbird. I did three of the borders months ago and haven’t been back yo it since. Now would be a good time since my daughter’s birthday is in July.

That is so funny Carla!!!!! (endive and camomile!) Glad you have a great BBD piece to work on!!!! Hugs!
Wishing you well and happy stitching. Thank you for the video it lifted my spirits. 😘 Be well, stay safe.
Thank you for commenting Paula! We appreciate it!
You ladies make the day brighter, thanks for sharing your lovely stitched projects.
Thank you so much Laraine!!!
Thank goodness all the hoarders left you mini Nilla wafers. I haven’t been in a stitchy mood. Lots of nervous energy so have been cleaning like a mad woman! Stay safe!! Love you ladies!! ❤️
I wish I would get an urge to clean the whole house and organize.....nope, I just have the urge to stitch and watch TV. Maybe we could do a role reversal??? For like two days? Anyway, I hope that you get your stitching mood back ASAP. Hugs to you Kenda!
Just finished your video this morning. I had to laugh when ya’ll talked about cutting back on obtaining stash because I got the TALK yesterday! The Hubby just does not know how much I have been resisting these last couple of weeks! Thanks for all you are doing by keeping all our spirits high with your positivity and awesome stitching!
Thanks so much Robin!!!! Oh, how I hate that talk....but we have to be realistic in these tough times. Thank goodness for stash!!!!!! If I would have known this was coming I would have kitted up every chart I bought! Hugs!
Good to see you today. I've been quilting for a couple of years so I have quite a stash of fabric. I decided to do a quilt and it was REALLY nice to be able to go to my stash to join a QAL. I've picked up cross stitch again after a couple of years so I have floss, but not much fabric. Trying to buy a little every few days in March to celebrate my birthday month. Have a great week.
Thanks Lindi! Glad you are stitching again!!! Stitching and quilting are such wonderful pursuits!!! Hope you had a happy birthday month despite everything going on!!!
Y’all r a pleasure to watch. Kept me laughing out loud. Your banter is awesome. Just love ur videos.
Thank you so much Maria!!!!
Love watching you ladies, it cheers me no end ! Stay safe and well and keep stitching Karen R 💕
Thank you so much Karen! That is so sweet of you to say!
Thanks ladies. So good to see you at this scary time. Thanks for sharing with us again. Take care and stay safe!!
Thanks Julie!!! Hope you are doing okay and finding time to stitch. Hugs!
Thank goodness for the two of you. Always enjoy seeing your charts, your finished items and your plans ahead. It is amazing how a pandemic can change our lives so quickly and our thinking and what we enjoy at this time. It is tough, but I hope we get through it all soon. Laura, the tip on using Niagara magic sizing was my suggestion, I think, that you saw on Facebook.

Thanks so much Norma!!!! I hope I got the magic sizing....I will have to check. Thank you for supporting those shops!!! We all have more than enough to stitch, but we need choices!!! Take very good care of yourself!!! Hugs!
Hooray! An extra Brenda and Laura episode! So happy!!
Please be careful on your commutes, ladies. I appreciate that you still have to work, but you are treasures and treasures should be carefully guarded.
"No, I mean *see* it, like, purchase it!" Oh Brenda, I know just what you mean!
"Nobody told me you were this talented" sporfle
I'm so glad you didn't start with samplers. All the older and different pieces show your history and development. Plus they make stitching rooms much more cozy
"When we do it again *in real life*..."
Thank you, ladies. *hugs*
Thanks so much Birdie!!! Love that you recap the funny comments....and don't worry we are in our own cars and do not stop anywhere. Please stay safe!
Thank you so much for the laughs! I love y'alls videos!!
Thank you for watching and commenting!
I am going to have to meet you two somewhere. You just brighten my day. thank you so much!
That would be so wonderful Donna!!!!! I hope that happens.....soon!!!! Hugs!
Thank you for the giggles today. It’s been hard to focus on stitching lately. I’m lucky to be able to stay home but too much worry on my mind. So....”what I’ve been into” is kitting and organizing my market haul into my stash. I too placed an additional order to my LNS. Our mini retreat was canceled for April but managed to still shop online. My LNS is the Stitchery Nook in Osage Iowa. It’s two hours away but it’s a sweet little town with a great store. Love you both. Love your videos!
Taking a two hour drive to Osage sounds so good right now!! Of course, it would be longer than two hours for me and they are probably not open....but just the thought of it makes me so happy!! Glad you are spending time kitting and organizing. Just try to stay in the stitching world in your head as much as possible. That is what we are doing! Sending hugs! Thanks Sue!
Lots of fun again! Beautiful projects... You two stay safe!
Thank you ladies! Made a very lazy Sunday worthwhile.
Thanks Carol!
This is so full of fun despite these covid times a year later. A real tonic ❤️ the final “wash your hands you filthy animals” absolutely got me in stitches. It a family phrase of ours. Lol 😂 love you both so much 🌈🌈🌈
Oh, so happy to see you posted a video! Your back and forth banter is just so fun! Comfort stitching for sure since we now have to social distance through April! 😬 Be well you two, you certainly brighten my day! XOXO
Thanks Terri!!!! I hope that when this is over you and Robin can come over for a visit! Thank goodness we can all stay in touch via the internet. For that, we are lucky. Sending you a big hug!
Another fun video... sitting here watching, eat Nilla wafers and stitching BBD... pure comfort! take good care of yourselves!!
Floss Tube and stitching are true blessings right now. Thank you for being a bright spot for us! Oh, Laura, I spray my WDW with Best Press and iron it before stitching to help stiffen it up a bit.
Thanks so much! I am hearing that Best Press is the way to go! I will have to check that out (when the world returns to normal). Hope you are well and Happy Stitching!
Love watching your floss tube down here in New Zealand lovely work it brightens the day as we are in total lockdown take care.😀
Thanks so much Billie!!! You stay safe down there!!!!!!! Hugs!
THANK YOU! THANK YOU, both for bringing a bright light into our lives at such a time . Enjoy watching all your videos and then I think I need all of that you show
Thanks so much Joyce!!! I bet you have a lot of good stuff already....but you are right...we always need more!
Thank you two for brightening my day. You both are encouraging and are providing a whole lot of temptation. Please know you are appreciated for your efforts.
Thank you so much for letting us know! We sure appreciate it!!!
Thank you so much for doing another video. I just love spending time stitching with you!
Thank you for your kind words Trudy!!!!
What a wonderful surprise to see another video, it was much needed. Had to close my small business this week and my stress is off the charts. Taking my mind off things was a blessing. Thank you!!! ❤️
Oh Karen, I am so sorry to hear that. I hope and pray that you can get back to normal as soon as possible. We need to take our minds off of the dire situation some of the time and so I am glad we were able to do that for a few minutes. Sending you a big hug!!!
Calling all the Millionaire Stitchers to step up their buying and boost the needlework economy🤣😂 I could get use to the Brenda and Laura show every week😍 Thanks ladies for hopping on today! You look like seasoned pros this week with the videos! I’ve tried to be a monogamous stitcher like Brenda this week, but alas I’ve been a dual monogamous stitcher, close enough though right? I’ve been working on WTNT Saltbox Quilt Sampler, and Liz Matthews Quilt Tree. I’m starting AH to EE this week by Kathy Barrick because I love all thing Quaker and quilts!!!! Hope you guys have a great week, and here’s hoping we see you next week❤️
Thanks Liz!!! You have some amazing projects going!!!! I would stitch all of those!!! Hugs!
Brought a smile to my face once again! Thanks for making my day! Brenda, loved seeing all of your lovely smalls! Keep them coming. Have a blessed day ladies!
Thanks so much Terri!!! I bet you were interested in Brenda's smalls!!! You do such beautiful finishing work so it was fun for you to see some of Brenda's history in finishing. Sending you a big hug!
Love you gals !!! You are a joy to watch and such a blessing, bringing smiles and laughter to others. Thank you dear ladies. :)
Thank you for your kind words Cheryl! Hugs!
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. Look forward to every video you make. After watching the 2 of you I’m either looking for patterns,fabric and thread or ordering.
Thank you for watching and commenting Ginger!!! Hugs!!!
Another fun video, ladies! So glad you are making it work during this crazy time! Thanks Laura for picking up and showing Miss Dickinson :) and I have my Mary Barres chart right next to me ready to order threads too! After seeing Carol's start I was just simply stunned by the beauty of it. Don't know when I can stitch all these beauties and my new ones too but it will be fun to try. It is so important to support the shops right now, especially those without online shops... after I saw your IG for Dyeing to Stitch I rang them right up! and a few other shops too. I am not a millionaire for sure but can order a bit here and there and show my support. We all have to come together during these times. Stay home and stay safe and keep stitching! Thanks for the smiles :)
Thank you for watching and commenting Krista!!!! I love all of your market releases!!!!! Yes, we sure have lots of beautiful samplers to work on....no shortage of those. Thanks for calling DTS! One of our main shops!!! I hope to be able to place a few orders myself in the not too distant future. Sending you a big hug!!! Hope you are listening to the Stones right now!
What a nice surprise! Thanks for sharing. You guys are the best! Makes this isolation better to deal with!
Thank you for your kind words Suzanne!!!
Too short...loved seeing you ladies anyway!! Always good stuff...Brenda those previous finishes; WOW!! SO many treasures!! Love that section...3 patterns to take to prison\island stitching!! I would definitely take a BAD (a big one) , LDS, and a Rosewood Manor!! HAPPY STITCHING TODAY AND EVERYDAY IN 2020!!
Thanks Karen!!!!!!! Hope you are having some happy stitching time!!!
Thank you, Brenda and Laura. I hope you realize how we look forward to seeing you both! ( a lot!) Very sorry your families are being impacted financially. Love you two, your friendship and your videos.
Thanks so much Liz! We so appreciate your kind words. Hope you are well!!!! Stay safe!
Thanks for being there !! Be safe and keep stitching 🧵😘
Thanks Lynne!!!! You be safe and keep stitching too!! Aren't we lucky to have stitching??!!
And again you two ladies have topped the charts of my flosstube watching. You ladies have now totally shoved me into the blackbird world. That’s it I am ordering that sew along book.. and the ohh la la! Thanks for sharing your world of beautiful stitching. Hugs ~Victoria
I am so excited that you are ordering those two books!!!! They are so wonderful. You could probably stitch for two years straight out of them! Enjoy!!! and stay well!
Thank you, thank you ladies. You don't know what it means to see your smiling faces and making us laugh along with you.
That is so nice of you to say Kristy!! Thank you so very much!!!! Stay safe!
It was wonderful to see you two again. I love the idea of desert island pieces. It is impressive you could narrow it down to 3 projects. Thanks for keeping me company while I stitch.
Well you know we could come up with 50 probably......you know how that goes!!!! Stay safe!
What a nice surprise to see you both again! Thanks for the smiles :). And now you’ve made me want to go through my stash and pick my desert island pieces :). I’m so thankful for my needlework to keep my mind distracted from everything going on these days. And Floss Tube is a blessing :)
Isn't floss tube amazing? It is such a help right now that is for sure!!! I hope you find some great desert island pieces in your stash! Thanks Linda!
Brenda - I love all your ‚long ago stitched‘ Treasures and I too remember the times, when Just Nan and Emie Bishop where „the It“ ❣️ It’s funny, how things like fashions return - I’ve seen many Russian Ladies now stitching Just Nan. But still looking at all the back-when-stitched: they are still holding their everlasting Beauty and your work is just magnificent! ❣️
Again I want to say how wonderfully kind you are to each other. This is so special.🥰
Thank you so much Mary....that is such a special thing to notice and say. Hugs!!!
Hi, i am fairly new to your channel, love watching you. Thank you for bringing some laughter into our lives. Stay well.
Thank you so much for the kind words Virginia!!! We sure appreciate it! You stay well too!
Thanks for sharing your wonderful projects with us! Stay well and keep stitching. 😁💕👍🏻
Thanks so much Patricia!!!!! Hope you are getting some good stitching time!
Now I am going to be thinking about my list for desert island/prison stitching!! You both had great choices. I have to say that Dutch Beauty is one of the samplers I would like to stitch in the next ten years. I am working on And They Sinned by Examplars of the Heart as the first of the older classic samplers I would like to stitch. Thanks as always. Stay safe and well and happy stitching!
Thanks so much Wanda!!!! You are working on a big beautiful sampler right now!!! Stay safe!
I love you gals. Thanks for video. “Prison Island picks”. Kind of like Alcatraz 😳. I would definitely want the biggest sampler ever! Be safe and stay healthy.
Thanks so much!!!! Yes, we would need huge samplers! Luckily there are lots of them!!! Hugs!
I cannot tell you how excited I was when I got a notification yesterday morning that you put up a video. At that same moment Carol texted me to tell me. Holy moly, we had to race to get ready to watch together. I think my three prison, desert island pieces would be Ann Dale, Consider the Lillies and Jane Tindall. I had better be stranded a long time. ;)
I would definitely take those three samplers with me!!!!!
I hope you and your families are doing well. Thank you for the bonus video today! As always I really enjoy videos, especially the three you’d take with you on a desert island or to prison! 😁
Thank you so much Grace!! Hope you are well too!!!
So happy you two are still doing videos! Wow, just wow on your previous finishes! So amazing and inspiring...and love your charts and starts you showed. Stay safe and happy stitching.
Thank you Diane!!!! Your kind words warm our hearts!!! Hugs! Take care of yourself!
I was so excited to see the notification that you two made a video! Those colors you kitted for your Sewing Club book, Brenda, made my heart skip! Love it! I also loved the Just Nan scissor case and your other projects 😍! Laura, I laughed when you called out those “rich stitchers” to support the needlework stores. I am certain you would be doing so, if you could!
Thanks Julia!!!! Yes, if I won the lottery I would be placing orders all over the country! Thank you for your kind words!
Hi sweet ladies, I'm delighted you did a floss tube today!!!! YAY!! Loved every minute of the video. Thanks for sharing with us. Love you both!!!! Happy stitching!
Thanks so much Sheila!!!! Take good care of yourself!
Great visit with you guys. Thank you for some comic relief and have a good week.
Thank you so much Sharon!!!
You gals are just the best!! As a nurse, every time you say "STAT" it just cracks me up! Thanks for sharing all your beautiful things and yourselves with all of us!!
Exactly what I said to myself. ..stat. ..get on it...also a nurse.....watched your video on the night shift...hospital up here has emptied out and waiting for the pandemic patients.
@@annettelanglois7760 Stay safe!
Stay safe also Leslie T.
@@annettelanglois7760 Wow....I can't believe you were watching under those circumstances....what I mean is I can't believe our FT was something that perhaps helped take your mind off things for a few minutes. Sending you lots of love!!! I also call going to the bathroom...needing to void. I used to work in a hospital for many years and I miss that work environment very much! Take good care of yourself!
Thanks so much Leslie!!!! I love nurses...they always have the best sense of humor. Take good care of yourself!
Thank you two for being you, stay safe and well, Sundays are better with you in them❤️
Thanks so much for your kind words! You be safe and well too!
Fun video you two. Had to watch In increments hub wanted to watch a movie , eating , I swear everytimeI sit to watch flosstube life interrupts.🌷🌷🌷 Be safe.
Thanks Mary Jo! Yes, I know...I could watch floss tube all day, but I have to share TV with my husband. It is pretty funny, because he knows who Nicola, Gary, Vonna and Nicole are now!!!
Just such a bright spot in a bark time. Love you both and thank you for the laughs and for the looks at the lovely pieces. The prison/ desert island idea is genius!😍
Thanks so much Laurie!!! Hope you can find some worthy desert island choices in your stash!
It was darn thoughtful of you girls to make a video for us today! Love your prison picks! Be safe and have a great week!
Thanks Kristi!!!! Hope you are well!!!
You don’t know what it means to those of us who are so anxious about what is going on in our world. I am in CT, and the situation is very much real here in our state. Watching your video is welcome reprieve. I truly enjoy your wonderful sense of humor and amazing talent. Thank you for continuing to push forward. I am sorry to hear your families have been negatively effected. I am praying for all of you. 💕
Thank you for such a kind comment Bunny. We hope that you are doing okay and staying safe and healthy. Thank goodness we have stitching to keep our minds occupied. Sending you a big hug!
Brenda and the Serial Starter Thank you!
Love you ladies...thank you for the laughs & all of the stash sharing. Love the desert island/prison lists. Laura, I got vanilla wafers yesterday too! 😁 paula in Midland, Tx
Really??? That is so cool that you got some Nilla Wafers too!!!! We can stitch and eat nilla wafers each in our place. Hugs to you Paula!
Hi Laura and Brenda. How lovely to hear from you. XxX
Thank you Bridget!!
Hi Ladies! Now more than ever, you two are bringing joy to many stitchers all over the world! THANK YOU 🌷
Now I need to go through my stash and pick out deserted island/prison projects. 😜🏝️
That is so nice of you to say!!!! I would love to know what your island/prison pieces are!!! Do you have a FT?
Hello Brenda and Laura - I am keeping you in my thoughts and prayers through this time. Comfort stitching at it's best!
Thanks so much Tammy!!! Sending love right back to you!!!!
Love you ladies. After last week's video, I e-mailed my LNS (Acorns and Threads) and ordered that fabulous Blackbird book. Can't wait to get it. You two are an inspiration and welcome diversion to my day. Thank you and happy stitching!
I am so excited that you are getting that book!!!! and lucky you to have Acorns and Threads be your LNS!!!!! I am going to get there someday!!! Thanks for your kind words Melissa!
Local as in 3-1/2 hours and another state away but worth the drive, train, plane ride. LOL
You ladies are always a delight! I hope when this is all done ✅ I can meet you when you do your retreat in Shipshewana! Please ladies stay safe! I love all your projects. I took off from flying the month (flight attendant) of April and might do the same for May. My next project is All of Joys of Thine...and I also started Kringles! 😘
Thank you Denise!!! I hope we are all in Shipshewana in October!!!!! Glad you are taking some time off from flying and your next project is a great one!!! Happy Stitching!
Thank you gals for continuing to make videos. They are always so enjoyable and brighten my day. Stay safe and healthy.
Thank you for watching and commenting Cheryl!!! We so appreciate it!
I love you two and the friendship you share. You are a highlight of my Sunday.
Thank you for such kind words Laurie!
You two ladies are the best.You bring a smile to my face in these challenging times.Please stay safe and wash,wash,wash those hands!!
We are washing and stitching!!!! washing and stitching! washing and stitching!!! Thanks so much for your kind comments!!
Yay.....so glad I saw this pop up! Love spending a bit of time with you 2! Have a great week! ❤️
Thank you so much!!!!! Hugs!
I just realized why it is that I just love watching you two. It's like being a "fly on the wall" when two very close friends get together to craft. I almost feel voyeuristic (in a good way!) watching you two show your projects and discuss your finishes and laugh together. There's just an amazing dynamic between you two and it's just so enjoyable to watch. Thank you so much for sharing your friendship with us... and everything else too!
That is high praise indeed!!!! I have found that I always listen in on stitching conversations between people at retreats or at shops. I just love to hear what everyone has to say. Thank you so much for your kind words Amy!!!
Love that box Brenda! My dad's middle name was Noel and that would be a fabulous tribute/memory box.
That would be a beautiful memory box!!!!! Hope you have the chart!
Good to see you guys on an off week! My two cents on AotH....don't change the colors. I am done with mine, didn't change a single color. I know the January block seems a little dull, but believe me, one you start getting the other blocks in, you will love it! Laura, I have had Dutch Beauty kitted for years. Have never started. I have Maritime White for it. Stay well girls!
Thank you so much for such an inspiring video. My husband's walked in when you were saying good bye and love you and he said "what a loving group" and my response was "yes, we're BFFs forever! " Though we never met, you make us feel like friends and I appreciate that and the time that you put into your videos. Stay well, be safe! Happy stitching! Lori at Once Upon a Stitch
Thanks so much Lori!!!! Hopefully we shall meet one day and we will be fast friends I am sure of it!!! Sending you a big hug!! and a friendly hello to your husband!
Thought I was going to die laughing when Laura said “filthy animals” after Brenda said wash your hands!!! Fun as always and drooling by the time the video is over! ❤️
Thanks so much Michelle! I have been seeing that wash your hands ya' filthy animals a lot of places and it just popped into my head!
Brenda and the Serial Starter Laura did you know that that statement originally came from the movie ‘Home Alone?’ 😬
Thank you ladies for this video its always a pleasure to watch you!! Sending you much love from isolation in West Sussex, England - Kelly x
Thanks so much Kelly! I hope you are doing okay and that you have a lot of stash to stitch from. Hugs!!!
I am not a sampler stitcher, but I really enjoy watching your floss tubes. Stay safe. I am from Northampton Co, Pa and we are in a lock down situation. No one is allowed out after 8pm and we can only go out for food and medicine. This shall pass.
Don't know if someone mentioned already but Best Press is stuff you spray to take out wrinkles and add some sizing. It evidently doesn't leave a residue in your fabric that will cause damage after awhile. This is per Vonna. I had never heard of it before her. Loved your video as always!
Thanks Lois!!! I need to get some of that stat!!!! Well, as soon as I can get to a store that has it........someday. Hope you are well!!!
You two ladies are fantastic. You make my day and always keep me smiling. This morning I was looking at Snow Globe. Now I want to go get it out and start it. It is all kitted up. Stay safe and see you next week.
Did you start it yet Deb??? Hope so and hope that you are having lots of fun stitching it!!! Hugs!
Thanks for sharing again today and for all the laughs. I enjoyed seeing Brenda's treasures from long ago. Laura cracks me up with her Nilla wafers...can't imagine those with Tab though. Love you both and look forward to next weekend.
Strangely, Nilla wafers and Tab go together.... until next time...take good care of yourself and Happy Stitching Jeanna!
Thank you both for this bonus video. It is always fun to see you ladies and what you are stitching up. I think you need a new law to always have a prison stitching chart kitted up and ready to go!
Great idea Angel!!! We should all have an emergency "to go" bag of stitching by the door so if we have to leave in a hurry we have something to take along!!!!!
Once again, thank you for bringing joy and laughter. And now I am going to figure out what fabric and floss I need for some stash patterns and place an order with some shops! 👍💖
Thanks Bonnie!!!!!! You are helping to keep a shop running!!!! I wonder what you are going to kit up??? I know it will be some fun stuff! Hugs!
Thank you for your video today! I really needed it today. We have been in our homes for two weeks and things are still so uncertain. Your video and the sun shining today makes me happy!
Thank you Linda!!! These times are really hard so we need little bits of normalcy and a lot of stitching to carry us through. Hugs to you!!
So lovely to see your faces and enjoy your sense of humour. Interesting how we respond. I have been working on Quakers in Holland, then will do a bit of something else and then come back to Quakers. Really want to finish it. Just have the bottom half of the last 2 houses and the last barge section to go. Be warned. There is a lot of stitching in those houses which is why I got behind in the SAL but I’ve found it quite therapeutic at this time
Thanks for the info on the Dutch Quakers!!! I hope that you can finish it soon and then enjoy it!
I love seeing older finishes even if they are no longer available. The finishing could be done using any pattern. I’ve driven myself crazy looking for things in the past but no more! Any flower motif could be made into a scissors holder. I stitched a lot of Just Nan and Victoria Sampler in the past and I have some waiting to be stitched. I’ve stitched many biscornu and several of Nan’s biscornu. I made a needle book from Emmy Bishop and several things by Sweetheart Tree. As I’ve gotten older I can’t do the fiddley stuff. I can’t concentrate as much because of medicine so have to stitch things that aren’t as detailed and fussy. So good to see you both today! Stay well!!
Great take on the older charts!!! Yes, you may not be able to get the exact chart, but you can adapt charts you have already. And we always say yes to non detail and non fussy stitching!!!! Hugs!
