No woman should have to come onto a public forum and have to ask people to not discuss her weight, reproductive status or financial choices unless specifically invited to do so. Just because you share your crafting, doesn’t mean that people are entitled to be privy to your personal life. Good on you for setting some boundaries. Keep on crafting and being fabulous xx

OMG 😮

At 63 years old, I’ve spent my whole life hearing other people comment on my body. We live in a world where it should never OK to comment on someone else’s body. You go girl❤

I'll watch anything that ElizabethAnnCanCREATE! There are so many of us multi-crafters that enjoy all the crafting you do. Thanks so much for sharing it all❤

I agree! I’m just grateful that you make these videos for us to enjoy 💕💕

You hit the nail on the head...your viewers feel like they know you, so you're a friend and not a stranger. So, that's why they feel it's OK to ask the personal questions. One of the pitfalls of this medium. But, just because someone asks doesn't mean you have to answer. Just keep inspiring us with your crafts 😉.

Elizabethanncandowhatevershewants! Glad to be along for the ride-you are a delight!

You handled that with grace and you owe no one this information. People need to take a step back and think before commenting!! I enjoy seeing any crafts. I cross stitch and quilt but I enjoy seeing anything!

I love ElizabethannCANCRAFT!!! I love seeing all your crafts when you have time to share them.. Thank you LIz for being you !

I was going to say the same name...Elizabeth can craft!!

Many things in life should be kept private. Good on you for knowing what your boundaries are, and not being afraid to spell them out clearly. The important things I need to know about you are how talented and creative you are, and the inspiration you provide. I’m looking forward to your new format. I don’t knit, but enjoy seeing what you do, Gemini. From your Leo friend.

You’re a fun and entertaining person. You don’t owe anyone an explanation. I think it’s great that you’re going to share all your crafting projects. Keep doing you and enjoy your journey ❤

Elizabeth, you can talk about the weather if you want and I will still watch your channel. Your personality is what draws me and watching you feels like I'm spending time with a very warm and talented friend.

Go Girl! There is a thing called skipping over content that doesn’t interest you, it’s called being an adult.😊 you are blessed with the skill to create don’t let other stifle your creativity.

I’m so glad you are not leaving Flosstube 😂 I’m happy you make money out of this channel, there is so much time and effort in these videos you do for us and we all love seeing your stitching plus your haul. You shouldn’t have to explain why you spend any amount on your supplies, we all spend a lot really 😂 Your video was honest & well said ❤ Gemini

Liz, it hurts my heart that people would make you feel like you should do something other than your Gemini self. We get this content, the result of your very hard work, for free or at a very low cost if we skip commercials, and no one forces us to watch! Congrats on staying true to yourself. And yes...my heart skipped a beat or two when you said "last floss tube" - I very much look forward to your videos, and am glad there will be more!!

Hi Elizabeth, I hope you read my comment. I just wanted to say the I feel SO PRIVILEGED to watch your videos, whatever the content. You don’t owe anyone an explanation on what you share with us. ❤️😊

You do what us best for you, love seeing all the crafts. You owe nobody anything...especially not answers to intrusive questions. Thank you for sharing the crafty goodness

I love the idea of combining all of your hobbies into one central video. I love cross stitch and knitting and your projects are always wonderful. I’m. It a quilter but I do enjoy seeing what you are sewing. You definitely have to do what is best for you and I am sure most people will continue to watch. You must be a Gemini with all of your hobbies and adventures 😉

I love that you share all your crafts. I used to watch knitting podcasts that focused on spinning and quilting and would just listen with no intention of ever doing those crafts. Well, 2 spinning wheels and multiple quilts later. I love to see all that you do, you are so engaging.

So many of us are multi crafters. Bring it on! Love ya!!!! Learn so much from you and really enjoy all you share with your audience. You are real life

Liz, just do what works for you! I for one really appreciate that people put themselves out there and share their talents with all of us thru their KZread channels. It's unfortunate that doing so comes with all "awkward stuff". It's never wrong to set boundaries!! So glad we'll be seeing you each week. The nephews are getting so big! Have a great week, Gemini! 😂

You do you! We love watching you share your craftiness and you don’t owe anyone any information you’d rather not share. Gemini

You do not need to justify what you will share and talk about or not. Setting up “rules, or guidelines” for yourself is extremely healthy. As a fellow people pleaser I find many things challenging as well. I am proud of you taking your stand. Good for you. Can’t wait to see your cross stitch and quilting and whatever else you get up too. ☺️ Stephanie

Thank you!! ❤

I like the new format! I knit as well as cross stitch, so I’ve enjoyed your knitting content and videos. And while I don’t quilt or sew, I’ve always enjoyed the sewing content. If viewers don’t like the knitting or sewing, they can just fast forward! It’s so generous of you to share your skills and projects, and offer excellent tutorials- we should all be grateful and just enjoy - and not feel that it’s okay to ask questions about your personal life! Thank you for all you have given us! I look forward to weekly videos!

Be you, Liz! For those of us who have followed you, that’s what drew us to you!❤. My first video of yours was about quilting. THEN, I saw a cross stitch video and I was chasing that squirrel 🐿️ ha ha. I hadn’t stitched in over 20+ yrs. But I am now and loving it once again. Looking forward to all your videos. Thank you.

It never fails to amaze me how kind you are regarding comments that are really nobody’s business. Your ideas are spot on, this is a craft channel not a support channel. Thank you for all your efforts.

I watch you because I enjoy all the crafts you do! So excited about your "new" channel. I've learned so much about making things/quilting from you. Thank you. It's fun

This was the best video! You know google describes a Gemini as witty and charming! That’s you, my friend! Look forward to your new format! All the things! 🥰

My dear, this is your channel and you need to do it the way enjoy. Those who are here for YOU still will be and those are the ones who count. A mix of content is fine. You definitely don’t need to explain yourself to anyone. I enjoy your projects and following along with you. Enjoy!!

Ha!! I love the "if you want someone to text who will tell you to buy the thing... I'm your girl!" I have a text thread with two crafty girlfriends and we named the thread "Craft Temptresses" because we all enable each other SO MUCH, it's embarrassing. So - you go, girl!

How lucky are you to be born a Gemini! Thank you for putting yourself out there and setting out your boundaries. Love everything you do. Thanks for the video!

Wow what crazy questions and comments you’ve been getting. Kudos to you for addressing them honestly and directly. Glad to hear you’ll be going back to a weekly craft update, I love all your content and it’s fun to see what you get up to, no matter what craft that is. Thanks for all the effort to put out good content.

As a person who also spends time on a range of crafts, I'm thrilled that your format will now include a variety. Love your videos. You should absolutely do what makes you happy. Gemini.

These questions come from people with no understanding about staying out of people's personal space. I love your upbeat moods and all your travels and crafts.

I love your idea for a new filming format. My heart went out to you when I heard you tell your story about the comments people make. You do not need to explain your life to us, as another person so eloquently put it. You are wonderful as you are, and you obviously put so much time & effort into your content. 🌷🌷🌷 I am a multi-crafting nana, so this will be perfect!🪡🧵✂

Liz, you talk about whatever you want! I think you are immensely talented and I’ll watch you to learn and be inspired. I believe Gemini s are the nicest people on earth! They include my mom, college roommate, husband and daughter - and now you!

My brother in law is a Gemini. I'm a Leo. Thanks for sharing about yourself and there is no awkwardness about setting boundaries. People can simply be too nosy and thats not fair to you. Im glad you are changing things up and keeping KZread fun for yourself. Stay crafty!

Love the pivot, Liz - as crafters, we contain multitudes! Also, these questions - woof. You're exceptionally generous to even address them - we're here to appreciate the amazing work you create, not to speculate on your life and choices! Thanks for being you - I absolutely adore your channel and will continue to follow along with all of your crafty adventures and pursuits! Glad to have this gemini in my youtube life!

I am excited about your new format. That is because I love to cross stitch, crochet, knit and quilt. Looking forward to seeing you each week. Don't forget that you also need to continue making demo sessions also. I have learned a lot from those that you have made.

Holy Cow! People ask these questions?! No answers are required, ever. I hope your very gracious responses help people understand. Great to hear you have a clear vision of what brings you happiness and satisfaction. That's enough for me to know. But I'm also very happy to hear that you will continue to share your crafting adventures. I do want details on these! The projects and your fantastic attitude are inspirational. Thank you!

I can’t believe how “nosy” people can be! You don’t need to answer any of these questions. I watch your channel to see what craft you have been working on. I learned how to make project bags from your tutorials. Thank you and continue to be you.

I love that you are combining all your content in one video! I read an article that said Gemini are fearless thinkers and always down to try something new. They are excellent storytellers and can engage with a wide range of topics. This is you and this is why we all love you and appreciate that this will not be your last video! I can’t wait to see what you do next. ❤ Lynette

Thank you for the video. You don’t owe us any explanation. Gemini you are diverse in your craft and I enjoy it.

Elizabeth , you owe no one an explanation about your finance/ money. IT is no one's business except yours. AS for your great floss tubes, you can show us anything you want to, a lot of us that cross stitch do other things too. I watch your channel because YOU do other things besides just cross stitch. You are a beautiful person who is very talented. Somehow, a lot of people in this day and age seem to think they have the RIGHT to ask super personal questions about someone's life , we do not have that Right. Looking forward to your new format. Happy Summer

I came for the cross stitch but have enjoyed all your crafting. Life changes…crafting evolves. I m glad you’re not going away. I’ve always enjoyed your videos. Thanks for making them. ❤

Good for you! Do what’s best for you always. ❤❤❤

I enjoy watching you! Thank you for sharing your talents. At first I thought you weren’t going to do anymore shows. I’m so happy you will still be here. 😊 Gemini

I’m a multi-crafter so I love your all things crafting concept for videos. I love all your projects.

You look great - then and now! I enjoy hearing about your crafting and what you have purchased. I admire you can work a 40 hour week and get so much fun crafting done. Keep up the great work!!

You should never encounter those types of questions or comments but you handled it with grace Miss Gemini. Love the plan for the podcast and looking forward to seeing all of your projects.

Hello ! Great answer to those who ask such personal and private question. It is nobody's business. ALSO. I love your energy and your projects. Have a great week !

Hi, friend. I have always been in awe of anyone who has the ability to knit, crochet, and/or quilt. I’m sadly lacking in those abilities, no matter how many times I’ve tried, so I’m very happy that I CAN cross stitch! 😅 I guess what I’m trying to say is, I enjoy being able to see all these gorgeous things that you and others like yourself choose to share with us! Thank you! 🤗🩷 Meline

I love you are choosing what works for you. I found your channel thru the crossstitch community and was thrilled to found out you do lots of other crafts as well. Thanks for giving us a peek in your crazy crafty life and inspire us. Love it. ❤ Gemini

Love, loved your new format of your CANCRAFT !! Great response to the many awkward comments ! You were one of the first floss tubes I ever watched and I was hooked ❤ thank you for doing whats right for you !! A very talented GEMINI !

You’re a delight! - no explanations needed! Love spending time with you! xx

I love watching you no matter which craft you are showing. Also, you did a great job with the questions, you should feel so proud of the way you handled yourself! Such kindness and grace. But please know, you owe me nothing, I will always watch you. Have a great rest of your summer😊

Thank you so much!

I love seeing ALL your crafting! And having you post weekly would be a treat. A quick tip for your shawl: you could carry those yarns inside the icord instead of cutting them every time (just take care not to pull them too tight. Oh, and Gemini!

You are so real! Thanks for being you! No apologies or explanations needed!

I love this video. Definitely you should stick with your boundaries. People are nuts! I personally don’t knit or quilt at this time but crochet and I think your new format is fun and interesting… most importantly, it should work for you. I am also a Gemini!! Thanks for sharing your fun craftiness with the world!

Congrats on your new video format. I'm sure they will be great, like all your previous ones. I'm not a Gemini, neither is anyone else in my family. Keep on stitching, sewing, knitting, and all other crafting that you enjoy.

Elizabeth, I have always loved your videos. You inspire me with each one. I have followed so many of your tutorials and you have encouraged me to try harder sewing projects. I 16:50 love making bags now all shapes and sizes. I just want to say thank you. You are so very kind and delightful and the way that you share all of your love of crafting and all the instructions that you help us with… thank you for that too. You handled everything with Grace and kindness. ❤

I think you are brave to tackle these questions people ask you,.while it is non of their business. Gemini is a great constellation. My mum was one too! And please keep on doing what you like and feel comfortabele with. You show the world so many nice crafty things! 😊

I think it's great that we will get to see you once a week. I enjoy all that you do even if I am not a knitter. It's still fun to see your work! Gemini

Loved this video and all of your crafting adventures. I enjoyed learning more about you but agree with many other comments that you don't owe anyone any explanations. You should be proud of all of your professional and personal accomplishments. I enjoy your Gemini crafting!

I love learning about all your craft projects! I came for the cross stitch but love hearing about your knitting and sewing. You were very gracious in the way you handled those very intrusive questions. I can’t imagine asking a friend some of those questions, let alone a stranger on the internet. Hope you enjoyed your Gemini birthday!

Happy Summer! No wonder you love all the water themed stitchery with that pool! Cute gemini hat! I watch your channel just to see all your cool stuff so I'm glad this channel helps you buy it. Enjoy what you do!

You scared the pajeebers out of me when you opened with "this is my last flosstube." Thank goodness you were teasing us. I'm so glad to hear that our Gemini girl will be filming on a more regular basis because I so enjoying watching you. I love your quirky videos; keep it up!

This makes me happy, because I haven't been doing cross stitch as much as other things. So, we adapt. I love all the things you share and this is your channel so do what you want to do. Looking forward to the new posts.

I am a quilter but still love to watch you knit and crochet, it has inspired me to learn (I want to try the Battenburg blanket). I think grouping it all together is great. Also you don't owe anyone explanations on your personal life, this is a stitching channel not a life channel! Gemini

Loved the video and am excited about your new Gemini format! 😜 I say, you do YOU! Those who love you will stick around. You owe no one an explanation. I just love hanging out with you, and as a multicraftual person myself, I love hearing about all of the things. Big HUGS!! ~Ann

I’m glad that you are keeping true to you and what you like to share. It isn’t anyone else’s business. I’m glad you are going to keep up with all of your crafting content videos, I love to see what you are working on. I don’t knit, sew or quilt just cross stitch but I appreciate all that you do. I watch your videos because you are funny and likeable and it feels like I am sitting with a friend. Keep up the great work and keep smiling Liz! 🙂 Thank you for the videos. Gemini

You definitely have me a scare! I vote for Elizabethanncancraft. Thanks for sharing your life with us and taking us along on trips. Love the vlogs. Gemini The pool looks amazing!

I love your new KZread plan. I love all the crafty things you do. You are my favorite Gemini.

I love seeing all the different crafts! I can always fast forward if I want. Choose privacy everytime! Gemini

Enjoyable!! I am interested in all types of needlework. And I love watching you. So I will continue to tune in to your Flosstube!! I also enjoy your Vlogs. I have never been to a retreat. So it’s nice to watch your Vlogs to see all of the happy and excited stitchers !! Thank you for sharing!! I appreciate all of your hard work!! Gemini ❤

OMG! You scared me with your intro!!! Liz!!! I love you more than ever because of the way you answered (or not) all of the personal questions. Love your new format. My favorite videos are by multi-crafters. I can relate to that because it’s how I live. Life is too short to cement yourself to one thing. Bravo!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

OMG!!! Good on you girl! Love you just as your are. I met you at StitchNorth spring 2023, so genuine and humble. Love your new plans, *insert cliche here* 'you do you' and keep on putting out great content, as you do.

Thank you so much!!

I like your format with different subjects. I don’t knit so I was able to fast forward to the quilt format. Keep up the good work Gemini.

I look forward to your weekly updates and appreciate your honesty when addressing all the ?'s you get. We are Gemini sisters!!

Yay I’m so glad you will show the crafts you enjoy to do in one video, and every week! I love watching anything you want to share. ❤

I'm excited you are continuing to share all your skills and crafting. I like frequent shorter videos that I can consume with coffee in the morning or at lunch. My mom was a Gemini too!

Yay! Glad you're doing this and eliminating the stress! Good for you. How exciting.

Love your new idea, so glad we'll get to see you every week. Thank you Liz, aka Gemini

It never occurred to me to ask you these very silly questions. You are so much fun to watch and you inspire me every time I see what you are working on. I am soooo looking forward to your weekly videos, YAY!!!!

So glad you are going to do weekly videos! Love all of your crafts and yes it is a stress relief. Also, you have no obligation to answer any of those questions. Me and my husband were always asked when we were going to have kids. They thought we didn’t like kids. It was an adult decision to not have kids and one we talked about before we got married. Do what you enjoy!! 😊

Watching tour floss tube makes me happy. You are so upbeat and funny. I love all your crafts. I also really enjoy your vlog. ❤️ Gemini.

I love seeing all the things you make! I quilt and crochet and cross stitch, so I really enjoy watching you make all the things. Perhaps it is because I am a Gemini, but I have always needed to do more than one thing. Please ignore all the foolish, nosy questions. You owe no one an explanation.

I can't believe peopl think they have a right to ask all these invasive personal questions. Rude, rude, rude!!! I love your upbeat attitude and your generosity in tutorials. I enjoy you and whatever you craft.

Totally freaked me out!! Do what you need for your life. Gemini is an awesome sign.

Glad to hear you will still be filming, and good for you on doing what is best for you!

Love the new video ,you are my favorite Gemini !! I wish people knew that there are boundaries to what is appropriate to ask anyone, You handled it beautifully,glad you are going to keep going I love to see all your crafts you inspire me ! thank you!!

Glad you'll be doing more frequent videos and showing us all your crafts. Gemini

This was a wonderful last flosstube (or not) from you Gemini person. Thank you for sharing when you really didn’t need too! Thanks for ordering from my LNS The Black Cat Stitchery!! Can’t wait for your new format. 😉

So happy to hear about your new format. Enjoy all 3 crafts!

Glad this isn’t actually your last Flosstube! My daughter is also a Gemini - so it’s a good month! And a lady always leaves a little mystery in the room - you don’t have answer questions you don’t want to ever!

I was excited to see a new video from you pop up and then I was terrified at the title and then so happy and relieved that you will continue to share your beautiful stitching, knitting and quilting/sewing with us. I stayed to the end 😉 gemini; take care and happy stitching!

Omg I thought you were leaving us! I did a double take, thank goodness I was wrong as I really enjoy seeing what you have made, all of your crafts are beautiful. Thank you for staying! You are a talented gemini! My middle name is June. You don’t have to answer any questions you don’t want to, this is your channel and you are the boss of your own channel. Best wishes from across the pond! 🇬🇧

I’m amazed at what things people ask. You do you, you don’t answer to anyone, spend what you want, when you want. You’re not taking food out of someone’s mouth, geez. I enjoy your craft videos, I don’t knit but I’m always amazed at your knitting projects and the beautiful yarns you choose. Keep up the good work!

O.M.G.! I about had a coronary with “last video”! You’ve made a great choice in deciding on doing what’s best for you. I have used two of your tutorials for making project bags and a portfolio. Will use one of the quilting ones later in the year. You share a good deal of your life and family already and I particularly enjoy when your mom or sisters join the video! You do you and I’ll keep watching! Happy crafting!

I have been watching you since your first video and would happily watch you chat about whatever you like. I love all the crafts…inspiration across all the crafts. You scared me with your ‘last flosstube’ comment…so glad that I get to continue to watch you. Hold onto your boundaries. So looking forward to your next video and hope I get to say hello at Midsummer stitch 😀
