Love watching your videos. Feels like a visit with old friends. Funny I was working on my flower garden quilt as I watched, I just hand stitch hexes together old fashion way but really like the way yours looks. My church quilting group plans to quilt this one for church auction next year. I am getting close to finishing top. I find hand piecing so relaxing.

Linnie your Grandmas garden is gorgeous! You need to get that fully finished and displayed!! Always enjoy your stitching💗

Glad to see you! Acorns and threads was my lns. I moved to Nevada 4years ago. I lived in Gresham Portland for 11years. I spent many a hour there. So many wonderful pieces. I stitched Prairie Schooler santas 12 days of Christmas. I had a quilt made of them.

I Love the quilt! How beautiful💗 I so enjoy your videos. The two of you bring happiness to me, and I’m sure to many, many others.

I have such sympathy for you with a husbands retirement. Funny story on my husbands first full time day at home. First he wanted to know if I had a 3 ring notebook for him. Being used to having a secretary who helped with everything. Then he asked what our fax number was. The next comment was “ did you know the dryer is crooked!” And all this time I am trying to work, and thinking to myself “Oh my!” And then he wanted to know what was for lunch! We still laugh about this years later! I hope to hear your stories too! Love listening to you ladies and Linnie your glasses are fabulous.

After finishing Hannah Elliott earlier this year, I noticed I made a mistake in the border…thought I could just let it be but, it’s too noticeable for me. So, I’ll be spending my time frogging and redoing the border! Linnie, that quilt is amazing! I’ve never quilted - but that looks a bit difficult - or maybe I don’t have patience! Thank you both for taking the time to do this flosstube - always good to watch you!

Always enjoy your Flosstubes. You ladies are so much fun. I’ll be picking my PS Santa’s back up to stitch XMAS in July. I alternate between a few projects. TFS.

I agree that when you spend so much time to do a project, it doesn’t take that long in the grand scheme of things to frog and re-stitch.

I was done with the an and y, and started to put in my M, found it would not fit and was running into the letter E. Frogging over 1 isn’t much fun! Anyway, your stitching is aways gorgeous!

Always enjoy you ladies! Roberta, keeping the garden going in this heat is a consuming job. Linnie your penny pillow piece is wonderful! But your Grandmother’s Flower Garden - is gorgeous! My mother made one for me as a wedding gift, some 44 years ago. Funny, she was probably stitching on it when I was in KC for a year of school and got married at the end of that summer. That is a real treasure! So I have a couple of questions. When you take your stitches out do you pick them out so you can reuse the floss or do you snip the floss off? And when you (or any of you viewers) use floss stops how do you then store your Dmc? Happy 4th all, 🇺🇸🗽🍉

Thank you Christine. Your mother’s quilt has to be a real treasure. What an awesome heirloom. To answer your question , when I frog I try to save thread if is a variegated thread but it depends on the count. If it’s on 28 it’s not too bad but if it’s on say 36. I usually lose the floss and have to snip. Thread will only take so many times of going in and out to d fabric. I’m not sure what a floss stop is. You have me on that one. I’m not sure about Roberta.

@@Christine-ix7tp oh I’m sorry. I store my DMC on big floss rings on a rod in a closet. I have them on the brown tags from Amazon in numerical order. I group each ring from low number to like 04-300 then 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900 and 3,000, 3300, 3700, and 3800 with floss variegated I sort them alphabetically by maker like Weeks, Classic and Gentle Arts. Those are the only flosses I collect. If I splurge and buy and silk it’s usually for a special project but it’s rare. I hope that is more what you wanted. I don’t mind I’m happy to help ❤️❤️❤️

Hello, I’m working on American Welcome while watching and discovered a mistake. 🥴I took out my error, now ready to stitch on. 🧵🪡Hope you girls get lots of stitching time over the next 2 weeks. Take care.😊

Oh no Meridith! I hate going backwards but it is such a lovely stitch, I know it will all be worth it in the end.
