Hi Sarah, fancy encouraging us to Squirrel, a word we stitchers are very familiar with. Another super floss tube. Xx
Good morning, Kath, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching and the kind comment. Happy stitching.
Hi Sarah I am so happy for you that you have a new puppie. Your stitching is so beautiful as it always is. I love your finish of Elenor made into a pillow. I am sure you have a squirrel or two around. You make me so happy with your beautiful smile and your kindness to others. Love you 🐭🐠🐳🌼🌸🍄
Hello, Barbara, so good to see you. Annie is fitting in so well and we adore her. Thank you for watching and the kind words. Happy stitching. Love you right back.
Hello friend, thank you for sharing your stitches acme your thoughts. I so enjoy our visits. I love to watch a squirrel or two outside the window while I stitch❤
Good morning, Claudia, lovely to see you. Thank you for watching and your kind words. Happiness is stitching.
Hi Sarah, great flosstube again. Squirrel is such a great cross stitch word - although as a monogamous stitcher I seem to resist their lure. Happy May weekend, Steph xx
Good morning, Steph, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy monogamous stitching!
My friend has Squirrels in her yard, the biggest things I ever saw. Bigger than a cat. Love, Patty
Hello, Patty, so good to see you. Thank you for watching. Happy stitching.
Recently brought a ‘Hazel’ into my home…not a squirrel but a robo-vacuum! A stitchy Hazel would be a lovely addition to my home….
Sarah, I love all your projects in process!
Hello, Catherine, so good to see you. The robo-vacuums are so cool! Congratulations. Thank you for watching and the kind comment. Happy stitching.
Thank you for sharing all your amazing stitches. You have definitely enabled me to make some purchases.😊
Good morning, Stephanie, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching. Happy stitching.
I squirrel every time I finish a crossstitch ! Your stitching is beautiful!
Good morning, Deborah, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching and the kind comment. Happiness is stitching.
Hi Sarah! Another great video from our lovely Sarah! Love your finish on Eleanor Rigby. Thanks for the smiles! See you next time!❤
Hello, Marilyn, so good to see you. Thank you for watching and your kind words. Happiness is stitching.
Hi Sarah ! I thoroughly enjoyed all your stitching once again,thank you for Sharing ! Your pup is so cute and I bet he loves to watch for a squirrel ! Take care 💕🦭🐿
Hello, Monica, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching and the kind comment. Happy stitching.
I've been a bit slow in commenting, but here we go😃 ... The piece you stitched when Molly was born is fantastic. It’s touching that she was excited to be reunited with it and has hung it.
As for the slub in Ann Campion, worry not. Sarah. Pretend you’re back in medical school and doing surgical rotation. Get out those surgical tools - a sharp needle and a pair of tweezers. From one side of the slub, use the needle to gently tease a little bit of it and then slowly pull that bit out with the tweezers. Little by little. I’ve done this many times and never been left with a hole. Afterwards, with your best bedside manner, don’t forget to smile at the fabric and tell it that it’s going to make a full recovery.
As usual, all your stitching is beautiful. Chester’s Place looks great and will be a loving tribute. Count yourself lucky you don’t have to wash all those house windows; maybe Chester licks them clean.
Vince is so cute, and that’s a great pic of Stan and his guard dog.
A very good morning to you, Arleen!! I have to sit down with no distractions and get busy with Miss Ann Campion. I wonder what the best anesthesia is for a piece of fabric. I suppose I could spill just a bit of Vodka on the spot, should dry clear, right? I received your beautiful birthday card and was very touched that you took the time. I had an aunt that never missed sending a birthday to all of us. She just signed and put it in the mail, but we all knew her love would come in that envelope and it was wonderful. Thank you for watching. I miss you. Happy stitching.
Love your Eleanor Rigby finish! So cute! Enjoy your Strawberry Fields. Stitching on 25 count one over one is so addictive! The stitches are so tiny and look so nice on Lugana.
Missed you at the stitching meet-up but glad you got to enjoy some family time.
New puppies are so much work! But bring so much fun. Annie looks like a sweet addition to your family. Enjoy the stitching, my friend!
Hello, Elizabeth, so very good to see you. I have really missed seeing all of you, but plan to be there on the 22nd. Annie is the apple of our eye. Thank you for watching and your kind words. Happy stitching.
First, love the picture and video on Vincent! What a darling boy. Glad Annie is settling in. Your face just lights up when you talk about your new fur baby. Eleanor Rigby is just gorgeous! I picked the pattern up last weekend at a retreat and can’t wait to start it. Have a wonderful Memorial Day weekend with your family. Hugs! ❤
Good morning, Susan, lovely to see you. You will love stitching Eleanor Rigby. Thank you for watching and the kind comment. Happy stitching.
What a beautiful finish of Eleanor Rigby, Sarah! 😍 I love all your WIPs - your stitching it amazing 😍
Thanks so much for mentioning the Salendar ❤️❤️
Happy stitching to you and enjoy your time with little Annie 😍
Good morning, Alex, so nice to see you. I think the idea for Salendar is brilliant. Happy to mention it. Thank you for watching and your kind words. Happy stitching.
I just love how different a squirrel can be when they have a pretty dress on!
Good morning, Betzie, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching. Happy stitching.
Eleanor Rigby is soooo pretty!! I love it! I can’t wait to start your beautiful birthday SAL! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful stitching! XOXO Heidi
Hello, dear Heidi, so nice to see you. How exciting that you and Phoebe will have a holiday together. Thank you for watching. I am so happy you will be joining the SAL. Happy stitching.
Beautiful finish! Enjoy Annie and hopefully she doesn't chase the squirrel.
Good morning, Maryann, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching and the kind comment. Happy stitching.
Your Eleanor Rigby is beautiful! So glad to see another Flosstube from you. Squirrel
Hello, Rita, lovely to see you. I appreciate the kind remarks for Eleanor. Thank you for watching. Miss you.
You are such a joy ❤! You definitely point out a squirrel on each of your videos 😅 ! Congratulations on Annie and happy birthday to her!
Hello, Janet, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching.
Your finish is so very pretty.
Love all of your WIPS.
Chester's Place is almost done!
Love that Endora fabric so much.
Have fun with Vince & his family.
Have a wonderful Memorial weekend.
Marilyn
Hello, Marilyn, so good to see you. I am getting close on Chester’s Place. It is about time to chart his name! Thank you for watching and your kind words. Happy stitching.
Congratulations on Eleanor Rigby! She is beautiful!! Happy stitching!❤
Good morning, Joyce, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching.
Oh I love time with Sarah!!
Slubs - I use a Snag Nab it to try to pull it under the linen as much as I can. Then I just stitch over it and it usually isn’t as noticeable as I think it will be! Now, on to continue watching but I knew I’d forget if I didn’t comment half way through 🥰
The Snag Nab It is just the most useful tool ever. In fact, I need to buy another because I'd be lost without it.
@@rosemontgomery5029 I agree!
Jean Farish has a great video tutorial about dealing with slubs. I usually just leave it in place and use the tension of my floss stitches to try to even out the spacing. If it’s got too much fluff, I use Jean’s method to smooth it out. Worst case, remove that thread and pull a thread from the outer edge and weave it into that space.
Good morning, Holly, so nice to see you. I appreciate the tip for slubs. Thank you for watching. Yeah! It is our birthday month.
Your Eleanor Rigby stitching and finish is perfection!!
Hello, Rebecca, so nice to see you. I appreciate the kind words for Eleanor. Thank you for watching. Happy stitching.
This is the 3rd time today hearing about Nicola's class. I better get over there 😁
Good morning, Alison, so nice to see you. You won’t regret watching the classes. Thank you for watching. Happy stitching.
Aw Annie is lucky to have you. I hope she does not chase a Squirrel. Eleanor sampler is beautiful.
Good morning, Anne, so nice to see you. We just returned from our early morning walk with Annie. She is such a joy. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching.
Congratulations on a beautiful finish of Eleanor Rigby!
I don’t worry about slubs very often. If they seem really intrusive, I take a counting pin or needle and gently push them to the back.
I would love to stitch the adorable squirrel, Miss Hazel! Happy stitching! 🧵🪡
Hello, Suzanne, so good to see you. I am pleased with Eleanor and her petite size. I have watched one video, but many think slubs are all apart of the process of working on linen. As I get a bit closer, I can make a decision. Thank you for watching and your continued support. Happy stitching.
Hi Sarah, I am trying to catch up on all my FlossTube’s that I have gotten behind on. Now that I am finally retired I will have more time to watch FlossTube. All your WIPS are beautiful as always, I love your Strawberry Fields. Every time I see yours I want to start mine and your Eleanor Rigby finish is gorgeous. I love Miss Hazel the squirrel, she is so darn cute. Vince is growing up so darn fast and is getting cuter by the day and your new puppy has also gotten bigger. She is also a little cutie.
Good morning, Pauline, so nice to see you. Happy retirement, happy FlossTube watching, happy stitching. I have loved every stitch of Strawberry Fields Forever. Thank you for watching and your kind comment.
Eleanor Rigby is so tiny and cute!! Excellent job Sarah! One day we will have to see Annie in person 🐾🐾 Squirrel
Hello, Kristy, so good to see you. I love how tiny and sweet Eleanor Rigby is on the 40 count. I will figure a way for an “in person” meet with Annie. Thank you for watching. Happy stitching.
Gosh your Blackbird stitches are gorgeous! And your Courage! Wow!
Hello, dear Jeanne, so nice to see you. I really enjoy stitching on Courage. Thank you for watching and your kind words. Happy stitching.
I am putting the squirrel and other Stacy Nash animals as a priority! Love you Sarah❤
Hello, Anne, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching.
I’m stitching the mouse for memorial weekend start. He’s telling me he wants to sit next to a squirrel 😅.and when I get him one he’ll probably start begging me for a bunny!🤪
Hello, Deb, so good to see you. I am quickly seeing where this is going regarding the animal crackers. Thank you for watching. Happy stitching.
Hi Sarah! Great stitching as usual. Show me a critter in clothes and I’m there for the stitching. Squirrel? You bet. After all, the squirrels frequently visit here. How fun to have a new family member. Our furry buddy, Emmylou the tabby cat, has been an amazing stitching companion for me and all around fun for both of us. She’s sleeping in my lap as I watch and stitch. Hope your new buddy will be as good a companion as Emmylou.
Hello, Joni, so nice to see you. I love when Annie lays at my feet as I stitch, so I understand your joy with Emmylou. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching,
Hi Sarah
Thank You for Sharing my Finish Piece on your Channel. I love the other Finishes that you showed as well. They are all lovely.
Love your WIPS - they are so pretty.
I love watching the Squirrels in my yard. They amaze me on how they can climb trees.
Have A Happy Memorial Day Weekend.
Have A Great Stitching Week.
Take Care & Happy Stitching

Good morning, Kathryn, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching and the kind comment. Happy stitching.
You are such a sweetheart!! I'm looking forward to seeing your birthday start. It was so nice to see your granddaughters cross stitch afghan that you made for her long ago. I stitched a lot of wedding samplers and baby stitches for my nieces and nephews. I wonder where they are?😘 Enjoy the Memorial weekend with your family!!!
Hello, Alice, so good to see you. I suspect that we all have many pieces that we stitched for our loved ones. I was thrilled to see this one show up. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching.
Another beautiful finish in Eleanor Rigby! Congratulations! Annie is such a lucky dog to have found you and Stan. Chester sent her to you. And that sweet Vince, we love seeing him at the end of each video-oh so adorable. Thank you, Sarah!

Congratulations on finishing Eleanor Rigby. She's just beautiful. Oh and that blanket you cross stitched is stunning. What an amazing gift. Whilst watching this video I've actually been stitching my Cross Stitch Camp 2024 badge for Sheri's Summer camp. Now I just have to pick out my June chart. Thanks as always for sharing your works and time with us. xoxoxo
Hello, Alison, so good to see you. I am looking forward to summer camp as well, and I need to decide on a chart. Thank you for watching and your continued support. Happy stitching.

Hi Sarah! I love how joyful your videos are, I can’t help but smile along with your enthusiasm. Your stitching is beautiful and you should have lots of confidence in it, I know you really inspire me. Cute little guy at the end, I miss my boys being littles (they are all grown up and out in the world). Happy Stitching!
Hello, Erica, so good to see you. Our children and grandchildren grow up so fast, right? Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitchng.
Hi Sarah! I stitched Florence last year on 28 count over one! She is lovely. So in honor of your birthday I will be stitching Martha Walmsley by HATS. I can’t wait for the 24th! Happy birthday to you and Judy!
Good morning, Louann, so nice to see you. I am so glad you will be joining Judy and me for our birthday SAL. Martha Walmsley will be a wonderful choice. Thank you for watching. Happy stitching.
Hello Sarah,
So happy to see you again. Thanks for sharing your stitching progress and for the shares you showed from other stitchers. Hazel is such a cute squirrel; she looks like a fun stitch. And your planned birthday start is a lovely pattern
Hello, Ellen, so good to see you. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching.
Squirrel is a fantastic word for me as a stitcher!
Good morning, Linda, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching. Happy stitching.
I love a cute Squirrel don't we all. I also love your videos thank you for everything you do!
Good morning, Karen, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching.
Thank you, precious Sarah, for another warm and delightful visit. I love seeing the pieces you are working on. I will go watch Nicola’s lessons. I would worry about that linen blob too! I have no experience with such, so I’ll be interested to see what advice other stitchers can give you. It is Memorial Day here, so I assume you’ve had a lovely visit with Vince and his parents. I certainly hope so! Love to you, Carol in Texas
Good morning, Carol, so nice to see you. I think you will enjoy Nicola’s tutorials, so well executed. I have had some wonderful suggestions for slubs, as one would expect from our wonderful community. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching.
Hi Sarah! I enjoyed this Floss Tube video. I enjoy all your videos! So happy for your family on addition of Annie. She is adorable. Squirrel is my middle name. LOL Happy days of stitching until I see you again for video number 50.
Good morning, Teresa, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching, the kind comment, and the well wishes for Annie. Happy stitching.
Thank you, Sarah, for sharing your stitching projects with us. I enjoy your videos, especially your very soothing, calming voice, which is welcome in the middle of crazy days! 😀 My sister has a squirrel that comes to her window every morning and she hands the peanut out to her “Sandy” and she takes it from her hand.
Hello, Sharon, so nice to see you. How sweet your sister can feed the squirrels. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching.
Eleanor is a terrific finish! Excited for your birthday start! I may try to start a HATS with you!
Hello, Kim, lovely to see you. I am about to settle in with you, Dyann, and Aimee and looking forward to the beautiful stitching. Judy and I would love for you to join us for our birthday celebration SAL. Thank you for watching, Kim.
Love your stitching. Always enjoy seeing your progress. Thanks for sharing!
Good morning, Barbara, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching and the kind comment. Happy stitching.
Hi Sarah, so happy to stitch with you this morning. Your WIP’S are all so beautiful and you always get so much accomplished. Your finish on Eleanor Rigby is great. How is your Pandemic coming? Mine is so slow. Always interrupted by a squirrel! Happy stitching.
Good morning, Debra, so nice to see you. Pandemic is a gently moving around the world ship, but I love the journey. Thank you for watching and the kind comment. Happy stitching.
I spent a great evening stitching time with you Sarah! (As usual!) I embraced the idea of two strands a day, it really works for me too, thank you for sharing it!
Hello, so good to see you. I am thrilled you have embraced two strands per day. I have had much success with this method. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching.
Oh my! Beautiful finish! So pretty! Thank you for sharing! Happy stitching!
Hello, Tami, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching and the kind comment. Happy stitching.
I can be so easily distracted…squirrel!!!! Annie is so sweet! Eleanor Rigby…what a beautiful finish! Stunning! Always a joy to watch your videos! Blessings!
Hello, Marian, so good to see you. Thank you for watching and your kind words. Happy stitching.
Your videos always make me smile. 🤍 Your also my son’s favorite FlossTuber (the intro song is his favorite part 😄) Squirrel
Good morning, Amber, so nice to see you. I am honored to be your son’s favorite FlossTuber and completely agree the intro song is the best. Thank you so much for watching. Happy stitching. If you want to email me his name, I will say a special hello.
Squirrel. Thank you Sarah for a wonderful flosstube. I really enjoy seeing your stitching.❤
Hello, LInda, so good to see you. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching.
I have finished the whole video now, and I will say again and again, Sarah, your choice of pieces to work on and the beauty of your work and your finishes are beautiful. I want to stitch and stitch and stitch some more when I see your lovely work. Thanks so much.
Thank you, Emily, you are very kind. ❤️
My Cairn, Halfpenny, barks at squirrels up in my redwoods. I carefully use my needle to open up the slub and pull some of the linen “filling” out. Ive never had a problem doing this; no holes in the fabric. Love you! Sally in Northern California 😁
Hello, Sally, so good to see you. I watched a video by Jackie of Cross My Stitches which showed the same method. The Cairn terriers are so sweet. Thank you for watching and your kind comment.
Love your finishes and your progress on your wips. Happy stitching!
Good morning, dear Karin, always nice to see you. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching.
Lovely pillow finish. I love spekulaas. I grew up in Holland and loved eating it all year around.
Good morning, Judith, so nice to see you. I think I would love spekulaas. Next time I go into the Bay Area, I will see if I can locate. Thank you for watching and the kind comment. Happy stitching.
That is such a cute squirrel 🐿️ what a fun stitch!
Good morning, Margaret, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching. Happy stitching.
Hi sweet Sarah, so nice to spend some time with you! All your wip’s are gorgeous and I love your finish on Eleanor Rigby, so cute! Glad to hear that Annie is filling your heart with joy, our fur babies are such special gifts! Hope you have a wonderful start to your Birthday month, yay! And I’m with precious, beautiful Vince..no no no on the sausage! Lol! Sending love & hugs! 🩷😘🩷😘
Good morning, Maria, so nice to see you. Annie has been absolutely wonderful. And so the “no” phase begins with sweet Vince. Thank you so much for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching.
Sarah you make my Friday evenings here in my sewing room. Love seeing your stitching and everyone who sends in their finishes. We love watching our squirrel.
Good morning, Jayne, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching and your kind words. Happy stitching.
I just love to squirrel away special threads to use in embroidery . U think it is a prefect idea to put Chester and Anne on the same sampler, both your beloved pets coming home.
Hello, Jude, so good to see you. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happiness is stitching.
Awww...Miss Hazel the Squirrel is so precious! I love watching you Sarah! I never miss an episode.
Good morning, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching.
Congratulations on finishing Eleanor Rigby! She is beautiful! I love watching your videos! All you WIPs are so beautiful! Have fun with Vince this weekend!
Good morning, Dee, so nice to see you. I had a wonderful weekend with Vince. How fast they grow! Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching.
Love miss Hazel Squirrel,love Florence Dickinson,have the chart but that’s all,beautiful finish Eleanor Rigby and all your lovely stitching projects,We are heading into winter here in NZ great weather for stitchin,happy Memorial Day to you all,Thankyou for sharing ❤️🇳🇿🪡
Good morning, Donna, so nice to see you. Winter weather is perfect for stitching. Thank you for watching all the way from New Zealand. Happy stitching.
Watching your videos always make my day. Congratulations on another beautiful finish. Your work is just beautiful. Squirrel
Hello, JoAnn, so good to see you. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching.
Yay! Congratulations on the Eleanor Rigby finish. You went through a lot to get there, but it was worth it!
I had a massive slub in a piece not long ago. I went ahead and partially stitched over it, but when the piece was finished it was all I could see. I went back and teased as much out of it as I could, and was able to use the eye of a needle to push most of the rest of the excess fibers to the backside of the fabric. Not perfect, but it no longer shouts "slubslubslub" at me. I hope you're able to deal with yours, as well.
I'm so glad things are going well with Annie. She sounds well-behaved, and not at all into chasing the occasional squirrel. I hope she enjoys your family visit this weekend. I'm sure Vince will love her.
Take care.
Good morning, so nice to see you. I hear you. I am really afraid if the one over one falls at the slub, it will be my center of attention. Well, “I’ll think about that tomorrow”. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. The meeting with Vince and Annie went very well.
I love to watch your videos Sarah. Hugs from Germany. The squirrel is adorable. Bettina
Hello, my dear Bettina, lovely to see you. I have missed you so. I look forward to seeing your beautiful stitching. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching.
Hi Sarah! Really love your Eleanor Rigby finish... I haven't started any of the Beatles themed charts... but if I did I think it would be that one! The little squirrel is so cute.
Good morning, Kate, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching and the kind comment. Happy stitching.
Such a joy to spend time with you! If I didn’t already have a birthday stitch planned I would join yours! My birthday is a day before yours so decided to start a Brenda Gervais “Every Opening Flower”. Maybe at some point I will join in on yours but I really need to finish a few wips first! All your stitching is so beautiful and so I thank you for showing us all that you stitch! You are so appreciated and I know how much the stitching community means to you and want you to know how much YOU mean to all of us! Happy Stitching!
Good morning, Patricia, so nice to see you. Another June birthday to celebrate. Yeah!!! You are more than welcome to join Judy and I with “Every Opening Flower”. I think that is perfect. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. It warmed my heart. Happy stitching, my friend.
I love speculaas cookies as well as lebkuchen and a few others. All the German (European) Christmas goodies. BTW, I made it to 1 year in remission. I am cancer free. Give tons of pets to Princess Annie for me. Thanks for sharing. Take care. Hope to see you in June.
Good morning, Chris, always good to see you. Congratulations 🎊 on 1 year in remission. Such wonderful news. I will share your pets with Princess Annie. She dearly loves the attention. Thank you for watching. I plan to be there this month, fingers crossed. Happy stitching.
Just found your podcast channel, and am really enjoying binge watching today! I’m having a few “squirrel” moments with my stitching these days, but getting some projects near completion. I just came back to cross stitching after about 30 years of knitting, and boy has it changed! I also have a June birthday, and will be 75!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Love the stories about your new puppy! ❤️
Hello, Madlyn, and welcome to my FlossTube channel. I look forward to sharing our cross stitch journey together. Happy birthday!! There seems to be a lot of June birthdays. How exciting that you have returned to cross stitiching. The world of cross stitch has changed dramatically in 30 years, righ? Thank you for watching and your kind comment.
Hello Sarah, our happy dear stitchy friend 🥰. I’ve just done 2 swans, busy with 2 elephants and a deer waits in the wings (samplers and their creatures) so a squirrel would be very welcome in my cross stitch menagerie! 😉
Hello, Deborah, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy menagerie stitching.
Good Saturday morning to you! I stitched and watched as you showed so many beautiful WIP’s! Your finished pillow of Eleanor Rigby is so cute! I also enjoy seeing the photos of finishes that you always share! For your slub issue perhaps you can use a tool like a snag-nab-it and pull most of the fibers to the back of the linen to minimize the size of the slub? Seeing so many beautiful pieces makes it hard not to squirrel and start new things! You are making excellent progress on your projects! I am happy to know that you are enjoying Annie, and things are settling into a new routine with her! Always great to visit with you!
Good morning, Carol, so nice to see you. Don’t we all get distracted and want to start all the things. Thank you for watching and your kind words. Happy stitching.
Another lovely video. Thanks you. Miss Annie looks as though she has found where she needed to be. What is a puppy without a few items lost to chewing?!? We had a wonderful chocolate lab, Tess. She made us laugh for nine years ... okay, maybe not always at certain times (like when she chewed the leather sofa or my leather shoes) ... but in our memories she was a hoot!
Good morning, always good to see you. Annie is settling in beautifully and you are so right about a few chewed items. Tess is a wonderful name for a dog. I am sure you miss her. Thank you for watching and your kind comment.
Love the squirrel! Looking forward to all your upcoming projects, especially July stitching 🧵🪡💕
Good morning, Helga, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching. Happy stitching.
Miss Hazel the squirrel is precious as is Annie. Please share those Mill Hill tips! Love all your WIPs and may have to join your birthday SAL and your Christmas stitching SAL since there are some Prairie Schoolers I’d like done this year. Another great Flosstube!
Hello, so good to see you. Please coma and join all the stitching! Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching.
I’ve been looking for Miss Hazel. She is an adorable SQUIRREL!
I’ve returned to cross stitch and currently working on finishing a piece I started 30 years ago.
Enjoying your channel very much!
Naomi Leah from Florida
Hello, Naomi, so nice to see you. I lived in Orlando from 1975 to 1980 and graduated with my BS from University of Central Florida. Welcome back to cross stitch. Isn’t it crazy how much things have changed for the better? Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching.
Don’t teach Annie the word squirrel…..you’ll never have peace🤣😂. I agree with comments about Fray Check, it works great. It can also be used instead of serging to help with the fabric that frays easily. If you can find speculaas cookies at a specialty store they are absolutely delicious . My Mom was Dutch and we always had them around Christmas in a package from Holland, along with other Dutch goodies. Chocolate letters, yum😛
Hello, Trudy, so good to see you. Annie has met the squirrels, we have many in our yard. I will keep an eye out for the speculaas cookies. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching.
I love the squirrel pattern.
Good morning, Wilma, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching. Happy stitching.
A little over a year ago, Jackie, of Cross My Stitches, had a FlossTube Extra on her channel showing how to remove slubs from your linen. I have tried her technique many times and, maybe I’m just lucky, but it has never left a hole in my fabric. It’s a very short video from around summer of 2022, and watching it and practicing her method of removing slubs has been life-changing for me. Good luck Sarah!
Good morning, Norma, so nice to see you. I will watch the video this morning. I appreciate the information. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching.
Love all your pieces and love that squirrel!
Good morning, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching and the kind comment. Happy stitching.
Your pillow is so fabulous! You are such an inspiration.
Hello, Allison/Stephanie, wonderful to see you. Thank you for watching and all of your support. Happy stitching.
Thanks for mentioning the online tutorial-will have to look for it. Love seeing your WIPs. Still productive despite new puppy! Squirrel
Hello, Peg, so good to see you. Glad you are keeping up with your stitching. Annie isn’t much of an interruption either. I especially love when she’s lays at my feet while I stitch. Thank you for watching. Happy stitching.
Hello from Tennessee! It's lovely to stitch with you this morning. 😊. Your little Annie is so adorable. ( Squirrel ) My suggestion for the slub on your piece.... Work till you get to it and see where it lays. I had a piece that had a very similar situation and I put it off and stitched all the other stuff and did that spot very last and it missed it by one or two threads. If I'd gone there early I would have been put out of my fear. Lolol. Thank you for sharing all your beautiful art. Love you bunches
Good morning, Nola, so nice to see you. I plan to pull Ann out this week and do that very thing. I so appreciate your advice. Thank you for watching and the kind comment. Happy stitching.
A great visit Sarah - I always enjoy seeing what you've been stitching! Your Blackbird stitching - fully finished and in process - is beautiful. I like watching Away We Ride come along because I'm using N&F's Endora for a halloween stitch too. The good news (for me, lol) is I've been able to ignore the squirrel that has been around my house recently. Take care.
Good morning, Patti, so nice to see you. I love the fabric, Endora, by Needle and Flax. I also have a piece of Tornado by Fox and Rabbit that is similar, but I haven’t cut into as yet. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching.
I love all your stitching. So beautiful!! Squirrel
Hello, Sandi, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching.
Hi Sarah - another inspiring video from my favourite flosstubers! Nice to hear that sweet Annie is settling in. You showed some WIPS I haven’t seen in awhile. I didn’t realize you are working on Anniversaries of the Heart. I am as well but stitching them separately and rotating them each month in a frame. So far I have stitched eight of the months. I am also working on the Red Deer Sampler. I love this piece. You are a bit farther along than me and it looks so good. Makes me want to pull mine out right now! Take care and keep up the beautiful stitching.
Hello, Brenda, so good to see you. Annie is doing so good and we are all so happy together. I really need to put more time into Anniversaries of the Heart. I initially was a bit put off by the one over one. Slowly my confidence is increasing. Red Deer Sampler is pure a pure joy to stitch. Thank you for watching and your kind words. Happy stitching, my friend.
Thank you for another great Flosstube. Love the idea of stitching a HATS for your birthday, the only HATS I've started to date is 'Tom's Foolery' on April Fools Day this year but I have three others waiting in the wings to be kitted up! squirrel 💗
Hello, Rebecca, so good to see you. Judy and I would love to have you join us for the birthday SAL. Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching.
Eleanor Rigby looks amazing! 💝
Good morning, Denise, so nice to see you. Thank you for watching and the kind comment. Happy stitching.
Your Eleanor Rigby finish is stunning. Bravo! I will be joining the Florence Mary Dickinson SAL, I celebrate my Birthday on June 1. Have a wonderful Memorial Day gathering with family. I'm sure Vincent will love Annie. Take care.
Good morning, Susan, so nice to see you. Sending love and joy for your birthday. I am so thrilled you will be joining Judy and I. Thank you for watching and the kind words for Eleanor. Happy stitching.
Hi Sarah, there is always a squirrel in my tree, usually staring at me. I frequently use fray check, dries clear. Haven’t stitched much this week and tomorrow my grandson will be graduating so it will be a busy weekend.
Hello, so good to see you. May and June tend to be busy months, right? Congratulations to your grandson. Thank you for watching. Happy stitching.
Hi sweet Sarah! Oh my everything was fabulous. You got. Lot done on a lot?❤❤ I am still working on my full coverage, whee since jan 29th! Getting pretty tired but want it done. The squirrel has been sneaky but still hasn’t tricked me. Oh Vince is growing up so fast. Annie is so cute❤ see you next time
Hello, Cindy, so good to see you. I took a look at your latest post on Instagram and the full coverage piece is looking amazing. WOW! Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Happy stitching.
One I haven't done is this squirrel. I am working on Maggie Mae bunny right now. I am enjoying your videos so much. We have two rescue dogs, love them so much.❤
Good morning, Linda, so nice to see you. Congratulations on your two rescues, they are the best. Thank you for watching and the kind comment. Happy stitching.
