    Thank you for coming to us despite your having a cold. Hope you’re feeling better. I really enjoyed your video. The tips in gluing trim on pillows was fabulous. I will rewatch Vonna & make my first pillow tomorrow! Your antique display ideas are wonderful and I can’t wait to find a unique item to use. Thanks again for a great time with you today.

    I always enjoy your videos and learn so much from you! Hope you’re feeling better. My favorite thing about summer is the smell of fresh cut grass. My husband loves to watch those videos on UA-cam. I told him that he needs to do that when he retires - I call it the Lawn Fairy, and tell him he needs to become a lawn fairy because he’s very altruistic and loves working in the yard. Thanks for sharing your stitching and be well!

    • @ColoradoCrossStitcher

    I really learnt some fantastic tips and ideas Sherri, I usually just finish my stitching into pillows or put in frames because I have no idea what to do, but I now I do, I love to walk on the beach during the Summer, with the sound of the ocean and the breeze blowing the stress of life away, so many people spend too much time cooped inside. Have a wonderful week.

I enjoyed so much seeing all your projects and I always enjoy your bits of wisdom that you give about stitching and especially finishing as that’s the struggle for me. I am looking forward to the wonderful days of SUMMER - picnics, sitting out on my porch and getting to see more of my neighbors after being inside for the cold winter!

    Finally had some time to watch your flosstube! Thank you for your upbeat, fun videos. I truly appreciate your work, style and you. You shared so many great ideas for finishes I thought I would share this idea. I finish many of my smalls in pillows and purchased a huge open basket from Target to put out of season stitched pillows for storage. Probably 40+ pillows, I set them next to my sofa and friends and family go thru them. An easy way to keep them all out but stored at the same time. I pull out each seasons pillows as it comes along. Until your next flosstube, have a great month.

    • @ColoradoCrossStitcher

    Thank you for the finishing tips. I love the fact you can glue trim around a pillow! I over complicated this and thought the trim had to be sewn. 🙄 I also had no idea the hobby stores will cut foam board. I took the skin off one of my knuckles cutting it with scissors. 😣 I get so excited when I see you have a new video. Thanks always for taking the time to make these in spite of all you have going on. 💕🪡 Kari B

    Thank you for such a pleasant time!!
    I just recently heard of Flosstube in Just CrossStich Magazine, and found out about your channel.
    I began with your first one and have just finished your most recent. Now I suppose I’ll have withdrawal symptoms since I’ll have to
    wait a month for another one! 😊 I began stitching in 1978 and it is so much fun hearing you mention the designers who were
    publishing in those days. And most of all, it is still thrilling to see pictures appear on blank fabric!
    By this SUMMER I hope to have a 1987 wedding sampler finished. The couple is still married, so maybe it will be
    an anniversary gift! 😊
    Thank you for all the inspiration!

    • @ColoradoCrossStitcher
      @ColoradoCrossStitcher  10 місяців тому

    Another lovely video, you are so easy to watch and listen too, I have three favorites, I have never kept a journal, maybe its time. I am a one at a time stitcher, Spring Quaker is lovely, congratulations on your fully finish, and the progress on your wips.
    Scattered Seeds Samplers designs are so adorable, lovely finish, thank-you for the demo on how you did the curvy top, you have chosen lovely frames for the finishing touch. The Bee quilts are so pretty.
    I have never used glue for finishing trims, I am encouraged to do so now. Love the strawberry glasses. Nice new stash.

    I'm so sorry you came back from Market sick, and I'm. glad you're better. My son and husband watch a UA-camr who does the same thing - cleaning up yards that are a disaster. It is fascinating. I can see how that would be addictive to watch. I LOVE Ed Mar needles. I'm so happy you are carrying them now. One more reason to drive to FoCo more often!! Summer. Have a wonderful rest of the weekend!!

    A little late watching this episode but just wanted to say hi. Loved seeing your special "glasses" from your grandmother. I am fairly certain the were first bought containing strawberry jellt or jam. I have some that have little oranges on them that held the best orange marmalade. We always hoped that the jars wouldn't change too quickly so we would have a chance to collect a set. Glasses came in a lot of products up into the 50's and early 60's, laundry detergent, peanut butter, glasses were even in bags of chicken feed, cattle feed, just about everything at one time or another. Gas stations gave away glasses with a gas purchase.What a fun time it was.A 29 cent jar of jelly in a pretty drinking glass.

    Hi Sherri! The pops of color on your Silhouette piece look so good, and I love how your Sarah Milthorpe sampler is looking too! Thanks for all of the tips and encouragement you give us on using color. I recently had to do a bit of color changing for two pieces, and I could hear your words in my head when I was selecting colors😊. I enjoyed seeing the several ways you finish projects. I fear that pillows are becoming the new "framed finishes" of years past. It's always great seeing the clever ways people have found to finish things. Happy Easter!
