Nedlewerks shop in Copperas Cove, Texas is my little treasure trove. I could spend hours there and all my stitching money goes to them. Love you Priscilla & Chelsea. You gals have become my inspiration and have brought me so much joy!!
My husband and I got married 25 years ago and spent our honeymoon in Williamsburg, Virginia. We go back 2 times a year-because it’s beautiful in the summer and autumn BUT also because I can visit the LNS called, Haus Tirol! It’s a MUST visit each time we go. Lots of models, charts and fabrics to be found and I always leave with a bag full of stitching goodies. I look so forward to picking out and kitting up a new start at each visit. This cute shop and it’s nice owners always make me a happy girl-poor but very happy!
Chelsea’s re-enactment of driving with Priscilla was priceless :) I love 123 Stitch! See you next week!
Dixie Darlin' in Pigeon Forge, TN. So thankful to have a shop within driving distance! :)
I give all my business o the House of Stitches, Laporte Indiana. It's a fabulous shop, they have everything, I never need to go looking elsewhere. Gorgeous linen selection, every thread you could ever want. And they are 6 miles from my house!
Hi beautiful stitchers! I started the Bless our Home SAL and being a novice to 28 count evenweave, I cut my fabric as the chart stated, not realizing that the chart measurements were for 2 strands over one! I quickly realized the fabric was cut too small! Since I didn't want to waste the fabric I began stitching 2 over one. It is tedious but I love the effect. I am going to try to complete it this way. I thought maybe this is something you could mention in your next video for those of us who are less experienced. I know you two don't cut your fabric and that would be one advantage of not cutting it until you are done! And also an advantage of starting the project in the top left corner instead of the center. I am using PC conversion and love the colors!! This will be slow going for me but I will enjoy stitching along with you 2 very special ladies! Thank you for all you do for us!! I spend my stitchy money at Down Sunshine Lane, 123 Stitch, Everything Crossstitch, Ebay, Hobby Lobby, and Pat Catan. I do not have a LNS in northwest PA. If anyone reading knows of an LNS within a 2 hour radius please let me know! P.S. I am trying to get my daughter to start stitching again. She is a mother of 3, like you will be soon Chelsea, but I think she can find a little time here and there. Of course, I was inspired to encourage her because of you two!
Finally catching up on videos as I unpack!! So wonderful to meet you both last week!
Love watching every week! Some suggestions for for each day of the week would be Sampler Saturday, Memorial Monday for patriotic stitches, Tiny Tuesday for small projects, Townhouse Thursday for any design with a house/building, and Farm Friday. I've been a neglectful stitcher so thank you Chelsea for getting me motivated with Red, White and Bloom. I have my own little competition to get it done before you do and at the rate I'm going, you're winning 'cause I have 0 stitches! Happy stitching!!!
I love Dixie Darling shop in Pigeon Forge, TN!!!
I don't have a local needlework shop ...but next week will go to Germantown Tennessee and Stitchers Inc. is there!! A lovely shop. I save all my linen and over dyed threads until I can go and touch and feel them!!..Love all your finishes and WIPS...a pleasure to see them every week!
Love your all your flosstube I loved that someone gave your books. Love that you have a library corners for all your children. I am a retire Children Librarian. Love, Love books. Thank you for sharing your flosstube.
I got my Chelsea and Priscilla thread conversion from Down Sunshine Lane, but don’t have the chart yet. Excited about starting the SAL. Also went to Hobby Lobby and purchased some more things to use for framing. You two have really changed my life as far as framing goes and I LOVE it! Another awesome video! Thank you both so very much!!
Love your videos so much! Look forward to them every week! I’d love to see a “finish with me” video. Your finishes are so beautiful I’d love to see the process of how you finish one of your pieces.
Hi Priscilla and Chelsea! My fave part of your videos is when you show us your finishes. I’m a beginner and bought from 123 Stitch, Amazon and JoAnn’s!
I enjoy you two so much that I rewatch these several times!
You two are so inspiring. Thanks for starting out our Saturdays on such a positive note. I love that Scarlett House piece. I love to spend my stitching money at Stitch in Time in Reno, Nevada. Thanks for sharing your stitching and have a great weekend!
Hi Ladies!! So back in the day, Micheals was the place to go now not so much, but just for floss. I mainly shop at 123 stitches or I spend money on subscription of either Just cross stitch or cross stitch GOLD is my favorite magazine. There is no stitching store near me. Except one in the big city of Toronto. I haven't visited that one yet but plan to in the summer. This weekend we were snowed in with rain, then ice rain, everything was frozen, then it snowed for Saturday and Sunday all day. Then we got frozen rain on top of the snow and everything is dangerous to travel and to even go outside to clean the frozen mess. Great stitching TFS!! :))
Lovely update as always! My favorite shop is Stitches from the Heart in Evansville, Indiana. There is so much goodness packed into a small shop.
I have been a customer of Stitchville in Minnetonka, MN, for over 20 years. Fabulous store. BTW--I just finished the Sampler House III this last week! It is a fun design. Blessings, Diane
Down sunshine Lane is my favorite! They are always so helpful! 🌸
Love you two and have caught up on all your videos! Haha! You inspired me to start my own flosstube. My mom and I are a lot like you two, always hanging out and getting crafty together and it's so nice to watch you. Thanks for all the videos!
I have been shopping at The Stitching Post in Catonsville, Maryland for over 40 years. It's a wonderful store and everyone is so nice. I also share the wealth at many different on-line stores.
Good ole hickory stick!!!! Great video ladies! Moist of my money is spent at 123 Stitch. Great finishes. Such a cute quilt panel! 🌞🌺🌞
Wow it would have to be a great time to go thrifting and shopping with you two. Great video like always. 123 stitch or Needlecraft Corner in Baltimore,MD.
Strawberry Sampler in Chadds Ford, Pa. Been a customer since their inception, thinking 1984 or earlier. They have a great Super Bowl sale! Also like 1,2,3 Stitch online. I check out resale shops too. It's also nice to do charity stitching to motivate you to stitch, as you have a deadline. I've done over 40 quilt squares for Love Quilts. I had to slow down because of arthritis in my right hand (I am left handed) and my medication makes me drowsy. I still try to stitch a few times a month and will do The Prairie Schooler Santas ( bucket list)
I love Creative Stitches in Dallas, Tx. That’s where I buy all my flosses and charts. Your finishes are so inspiring.
My happy place is The Stitching Bee in Green Bay, WI. Kendra, the owner, keeps her inventory fresh and current. She is well stocked and would never run out of hickory sticks. Green Bay is a great place to visit but if you can’t get to the store just give Kendra a call. She will mail what you need.
The Shepherds Needle, Little Rock, AR, is relatively (2.5 hours, lol) local to me. Lovely shop, with wonderful people. Ann, the owner, is simply terrific.
Lots of neat stuff! My LNS, Stitcher's Paradise in Las Vegas is where I spend all my stitching money. We have to support our local brick and mortar shops. Owners Gina & Nancy (who does most of the models) are super nice ladies. There's a whole wall of floss, a room filled with fabric, tons of charts, accessories. Fabulous shop.
I have a manic Monday (anything goes), Twitchy Tuesday (Halloween), Wooly Wednesday (wool applique), This and That Thursday ( Could be Spring, could be Summer ...who knows) Fall Friday (all things fall), Sewing Saturday (Rev up the sewing machine!) Santa Sunday (all things Christmas).
Glad you had fun going to the store. I am sure it was fun to meet Cathy. Have a great weekend ladies 🌻🌻🌻
The Cottage Needle on Etsy is wonderful. Wish we had a more local shop but I have really enjoyed Needleworker’s Delight in Metuchen, NJ. Also home of Silkweaver fabrics!
Crazy Annie for my charts! Victorian Motto Sampler for my fancy flosses! You guys crack me up, thank you!
I don't have a local LNS shop, so I shop mostly on-line at 123 Stitch, Down Sunshine Lane, and Julie of Gulf Coast Stitcher. All of these on-line shops are great...super customer service..thx for sharing your patterns, finishes...so motivating...I did get my Bless Our Home pattern and floss...so I'm ready to go...your videos are great and they definitely increase my stitchy inventory...until next time...take care
Oh my gosh! Thank you so much for the shout out, I was wondering how do many switchers were finding me this week. So far I am loving bless our home on 40 count.
Another fantastic video as always! I burst into laughter at "Don't jump into a full coverage piece unless you've lost your mind." My favorite shop (since I don't have an LNS) is Down Sunshine Lane. I just love Amy!
Another top notch video, I smile all the way through. Here in Louisville,Ky. We have The Finishing Touch a wonderful cross stitch shop with tons of models and a staff that is so sweet and very knowledgeable and super helpful. I also use 123-stitch a lot! Have a great stitchy week girls!
123stitch for now. Planning some summer trips to my first actual stitching store! I’m so excited. Love your videos. Thank you.
I shop at Tomorrow’s Heirlooms in Glen Ellyn and Inspired Needle in Lemont, both in Illinois. Was in TH day after your visit last weekend. Would have been so fun to meet you. Flosstube is responsible for my return to cross stitch. I enjoy your videos! They make me miss my daughter though. So nice to see you enjoy each other as well as your hobby.
You two are so busy!! Makes me tired just thinking about it!! LOL As always, a great video; loved seeing all the stash and stitching. Glad you had fun at all of the LNS that you went to. Happy stitching.
Love all of your finishes!! I can't wait for the mail to arrive to day... my SAL items will be here!!! Besides the online shops, my go to is the Stitching Bits and Bobs in Plainwell, MI. Happy Stitching ladies!
Sunday morning stitching with coffee & this video = happy way to start my day! Thank you for always making me smile! 😊😊😊
My favorite LNS is The Cross Stitch Peddler in Decatur, Alabama. You two are enabling me so much with all those great looking starts and finishes. :)
Such a fun video! I shop at Shepherd's Needle in Little Rock, AR. Ann (the owner) has ordered several older items for me and other customers as well; she does mail order too. She is working on her web site, but you can always email or call about charts and supplies. And I'm pretty sure she has restocked the Word Play charts; she has each stitched as a model.
My favorite BAM store is Stitchville USA. I was there every few days when I lived in Minneapolis. Everything you could ever want is there. I loved sitting on the floor and doing floss conversions!
I have started the bless our home sal and love it! I changed the white to ecru and love how it blends. I live in the middle of nowhere so don't have an lns. I order on line and my fave is 123 stitch! Thanks for all the inspiration!!!
Thanks again for your videos. Sat. is one of my favorite days because i get to stitch and watch ya'll. I am still waiting for my charts and floss for the SAL but it looks like i will be getting them this week. Should be fun to stitch. My Happy Place is the online store 123 Stitch, Stitch and Frog, Sassy Jack Stitchery, Silver Needle and my LNS is C C & Co. Thanks for sharing your lives with us.
I look forward to every Saturday to see what you will be stitching next. Changing up the days seems to make my stitching go faster. Starting today’s SAL was perfect because I do Summer Saturdays.
I clearly lost my mind because I start stitching with big projects 😂 and I still love big projects, especially HAEDs 😝 and I keep my stitching bug also by watching flosstube. Your channel is one of my favourites to motivate me stitching. Have a great day, you ladies 😄
I’m sooo excited that the needleshops are expanding!! So many in my state have closed and disappeared!! ❤️❤️
All of your finishes are wonderful and I especially love the April Wordplay, Priscilla! Chelsea, congrats on finishing Halloween Rules! I can't wait to see how you display it! You are both always such a delight to watch. Have a great week!
Always look forward to Saturday to watch your videos. Love them. My favorite shop is Stitches N Things in Fenton, Michigan. It is a small shop but has or can get anything you want. After seeing all your new patterns I need to call the shop and order some for me. Thanks!!!
I spend most of my stitchie money at 123stitch. But the closest brick and mortar would be 5 hours away at Friendship crossing in Corvallis, Oregon. Love your stash this week, I want it all!
You ladies just make my Saturday afternoons! Another wonderful video-I especially ❤️ Chelsea’s description of Priscilla’s driving skills......😂😂😂 My favorite cross-stitch shop is the one and only and very special Stitch and Frame Shop in Rock Hill,SC! Wonderful shop, wonderful ladies who work there ☺️ P.S. With summer on the way, I couldn’t help but think how wonderful it would be to have a farm by the sea.
I enjoy going to The Shepherd’s Needle in Little Rock, Arkansas. After seeing the floss for your next Chalk on the Farm, I’m going to guess that it is a strawberry farm. Thanks for another fun video. Hope you aren’t too cold & snowy.
My happy place is definitely Shepards Bush in Ogden, Utah. They have SO many displays I can spend hours in there just looking around!
Sassy Jacks, Stitch and Frame Shop --I'm between the two. 123 stitch, DownSunshine Lane...Love them all.
No LNS here but I have been using Down Sunshine Lane. I would like to hit up The Stitching Bee, in Green Bay-maybe when the snow stops in Wisconsin. This weekend was bad, traveled from Ft. Wayne, for the Vera Bradley outlet sale and hit a blizzard when we arrived home. Yuck snow!
I got my chart & thread for the SAL, yesterday! I just finished Red, White & Bloom this morning, so I will be starting the SAL today!
Beautiful finishes! Great new charts. I like to shop for stitching things on casacenina. Happy stitching!
Very fun video, as always! It was so funny because last week I bought LNH Brave Hearts and Americana Sampling, I had the Autumn Sampler Band and looked at it and decided I need to do all four. The summer one is very cute, my favorite next to the autumn. The Silver Needle in Tulsa is my favorite stitchy shop. Love your videos, oh, that egg is crazy huge!!LOL
My favorite needlework shop is Hearts Desire in Wichita, Ks. Debbie, the owner and her staff are super friendly, helpful and make every trip to their shop a fun experience. They have an awesome display of beautiful samples on the walls, everywhere. Stop by if you're ever in town!
I spend a lot of my cross stitch money at Cross Stitch Station in Waynesboro, VA. Terry's father owned a service station many years ago and her uncle (I think ) built an automotive repair shop nearby. Terry's shop is in the last bay. It is completely sealed off from the auto shop but I think it is an unusual location. Her shop is crammed full. Carolyn
Since I don't have a local shop, and there is not one within driving distance. I buy from Ye Olde Cross Stitchery, The Silver Needle, Stitch and Frog, and if all else fails eBay.
Stitch Niche in Arlington Texas is my current fav to purchase from. I adore the egg plate . I had one that was in my belongings I lost to flooding so seeing they are still around sometimes gives me hope Ill find another sometime. Love the finishes!
I mostly shop 123 Stitch. Loved your video and finishes!
Well my stitching money goes to Tomorrow’s Heirlooms in Glen Ellyn and Welcome Stitchery in Crystal Lake, both in Illinois! Another super fun video ladies, thanks!
Shepherd's Needle in Little Rock, AR is my go to brick and mortar shop and Silver Needle for on line shopping.
I started the Bless our Home SAL this morning and it is my very first SAL! The pattern is a joy to stitch and your floss colors are beautiful. I usually use dmc, but ordered fancy floss for this special event. This one is going to the framers for sure and will be kept out year round-it is just precious! Now I am thinking, maybe I should do Stitch Maynia! Chelsea, I am in awe of your Halloween Rules and Priscilla, your finishes are inspiring, as always.
It's so interesting hearing about the rainy weather over there. here in the north west of England we actually have a sunny day for once!
I loved your video. Always nice ti see the work of your both. Have a nice stitching time.
The Silver Needle in Tulsa Oklahoma is my LNS....even though I live a couple of hours away. It is a great experience to shop there. They sponser retreats and have many Auto ships. Also I guess a wheat farm. You two are great ...so many good ideas. I go get stitch board if I am not in the market for something else and have a coupon for Hobby Lobby. Thank you so much for visiting with us and sharing ideas and stories.
Another mother-daughter team who have trouble driving together! I get so nervous when my daughter drives...and she really is a good driver. As for shopping, I like 123stitch as my LNS leaves a lot to be desired. I’m glad I was able to get your video watched this afternoon because we are expecting an ice storm and could lose the power. I have to get my Priscilla & Chelsea fix!
I spend all the money at Stitches N' Things in Fenton, MI. There is also The Rocking Horse in Farmington Hills, MI.
Your videos are my weekly treat!! I usually spend my cross stitch dollars online (ebay) but I do make the effort to make trips to my local LNSs. Ye Olde Cross Stitchery in Bristol PA and the Strawberry Sampler in Glen Mills PA. I think there are others in the area but these are the two I know. Time to investigate!
ooo what about Tractor Tuesday for all the farming stitches
I shop at Dyeing to Stitch in Virginia Beach, Va. I'm so fortunate to have this shop, So close I can get there and back on my lunch hour!
One of my favorite xstitch shops is Stitchers Haven in Guntersville AL. It’s in a cute little town right on the lake so there’s fishing for the guys too. Barbara is the store owner and she’s on Facebook too. Awesome shop!!
it would be wonderful if you could show us what sticky board is i think I know but Im worried i would ruin a cross stitch piece by sticking it to the wrong stuff
Your Springtime finish is adorable! I really like your Red, White, and Bloom. This one is on my wish list. When I can get there, I like to shop at The Counted Needle in Bloomington, Illinois.
I live in a small town in the UK, so tend to shop online on sewandso and Lakeside needlecraft :) Really enjoyed this video ladies, and your tales of your stitchy store tour/meet up day.
Fun video! Loved your description of driving with your mom:). We call it the “help me Jesus handle”! I was lucky enough to visit a new to me store in Clinton, Iowa this weekend!!!!! It’s called Stitchin n’ Stuff. It was a great little store and I had such fun shopping. Loved your haul. Lots of great charts!
Stitches N Things in Fenton,Mich.,Rocking Horse in Farmington,Michigan and Timeless Stitches in Tecumseh,Mich.All great brick and mortar stores. Love 123 stitch online!
Reflections Framing & Stitching in Ralston, NE. Another great video!
Thanks so much for another great video! I'm lucky to have Shepard's Bush in Ogden, Utah as my LNS. I also love ordering from Down Sunshine Lane & 123Stitch online. I just ordered my "Bless Our Home SAL" pattern from Down Sunshine Lane :)
Always love catching up with you. Thank you for another great video with all your finishes. WIPs, and haul. Lori S. Once Upon a Stitch
Aw thanks for the sweet shoutout! Y’all truly are an inspiration to me! Another great video as always! ❤️
I have a lot of sympathy for you Chelsea! About 15 years ago (I'm still mentally scared) hubs volunteered me to car pool with one of his mates as they were down to one car, &we worked fairly close to each other. For the next six months I had to hold the newspaper up over my face & read it out loud so I couldn't focus on how freaking close he drove to the car in front. I was so happy when they got their finances in order & replaced their car... So so happy!

Online I spend at 123 & Downsunshine, at home I use Ribbon Rose in Mt Wellington, Auckland. Fabric from Countrystitch fabric dyer. Nom nom.
The Stitch Point, Greensboro, NC. Love your videos and everything you are stitching.
I love down sunshine lane. I found it when y’all started fresh eggs farm chalk. Keep up the fabulous work!!!
Mostly at Online 123 stitch and tomorrow’s heirlooms during the Nashville market.
I love Stitch by Stitch in Cape May, NJ. Love watching and love your animals, including Calvin whom I've seen on the Facebook and blog posts! He looks ornery!
Y’all are so lucky to have several shops close by. No local shops that I know of in Ga. My favorite is 500 miles away from home, that I get to go to 1-2 times a year while on vacation... - The Crafty Framer in Largo, Florida.
Was such fun meeting and hanging out with you guys at Inspired Needle!!! Talk about nervous, though!!! I was so starstruck I was scared to introduce myself..ugh!! I have 2 favorite stores Inspired Needle in Lemont, Illinois and Tomorrow's Heirlooms in Glen Ellyn have gotten a HUGE portion of my overtime money, Lol!!!!
Such great haul! It's so fun to spend the day shopping with friends, so expensive too though LOL My favorite place to hang out and stitch and spend money is Stiches From the Heart in San Antonio, TX
Great video I go to Stitchville in Minneapolis, MN. Watching you during the historic blizzard here in MN
You two always make me laugh! My local LNS is Cross My Heart in Columbus, OH. But I recently visited Attic Needlework in Mesa, AZ and was in heaven!!!!! Wish it were closer.
123 Stitch!! The best😁 Love your finishes and the best on your pregnancy Chelsea!
Oh my! Thank you so much for the shout out. I'm blushing! Thank you!!! Summer or Spring Saturday for another stitchy day? One of the places I like to spend my stitch money is Kelsey's Needle Krafts in Placerville, CA. I also just got a rocket speed delivery from JensStitchingNiche on Etsy. And Chelsea I am so happy for you that you don't have to do the glucose test again...I got to do the three hour one...gag.
Great video as always ladies!! Your finishes look so amazing!! My favorite place to spend my stitchey money is traditional stitches just outside Calgary Alberta, Canada 💜💜
