Sarah you are just so cute, I love your flosstube. This hobby has changed so much in a great way from when I did it in the 80s. One of which are the flosstubes. We can form relationships and not even meet! But what a bonus if we get that opportunity! Your projects are so pretty. Enjoy the rest of your summer! It’s been so hot here in North Carolina that I have been getting a lot of stitching time.

Fun to watch you today while working on my stitching on this rainy Monday, Sarah! I would enjoy watching a mid-year WIP parade from you.

Happy belated birthday. I’m happy that you had a nice celebration at the beach. I am catching up on my FlossTube videos and stitching while watching. I love all the stitchy pieces that you shared. I love the Blue Flower Beach in Autumn. I live at the beach in Southern CA so I just may have to stitch it. I was surprised at how big those postcards are. I’m so glad you are an aida stitcher because I can see what patterns can be stitched on any fabric. I stitch aida only as well. Continue to enjoy your summer and get that fill in done. I have learned that outlining something so it can be filled in is a great way to go. I call it mindless stitching.

Sarah, it was so fun to see that you’re using that little pouch! Some questions for you: 1. Do you find that white sulky (or white fancy floss, for that matter), tends to lay better than DMC B5200? I never seem to like my white stitches using DMC B5200. 2. How is your Dasher and Dancer coming along? It is my favorite WIP, but I haven’t devoted enough time to it. I love it but it’s so slow going (and a little overwhelming as it’s my largest project). 3. Love that green chenille trim on your strawberry pillow. Did you sew it on or glue it on? I haven’t worked with chenille trim yet, so curious. Great video!
