Thanks for another wonderful flosstube! I learn something new every time I watch!
Love your flosstube. You are so relaxed and easy to listen to. Really enjoy seeing the new charts and am having a great time stitching Summer Camp. Thank you
Thanks so much, Becky!
I LOVE David Bird’s work! ❤ he really has a gift for bringing out the magic of nature. Can you imagine how beautiful one of his photos would look as a chart?! CAMP
Cross Stitch Camp 2021 is where my passion for cross-stitching found a new outlet. It will be fun to attend Camp again!!
Great video as always, Sheri. Thank you for hosting Stitch Camp again. I enjoy seeing what every one is stitching! Take care and Happy Stitching! 🧵
Thanks, Merritt!
Real Housewives flosstube' shows many finishes with the Paisley & Dots kits. Really cute.
Your camp is such a great idea for those of us that don't go to retreats.
Thank you, Shay - it's fun to participate with so many people from all over for Camp!
Thanks a million for another fabulous Flosstube episode! I’m so excited about Cross Stitch Camp!
So much fun eye candy today. Let the inspiring ( enabling) begin 😂. Thanks for the the great Flosstube keeping me company as I stitch! Have fun in AZ!
Summer camp is always awesome for children in the summer!!!!!
Love the fact that your videos cover so many different kinds of stitching. I don’t belong to any one camp of designs. I stitch whatever the mood calls for.
Thank You for your inspiring presentation…..”Camp life is fun with all of You”….
Camp is the word. I really enjoy your show, and I’m definitely going to look at the paisley and polkadot patterns.
In the future when you have confetti or pin stitches on a piece try the following. After you finish stitching traveling threads place a tiny dot of Fray Check on the back of each pin stitch. Let it dry face down on a flat surface over night. In the morning cut off the traveling threads. The cloth around the pin stitch sometimes gets moist but so far everything I have done this with dries with no residual discoloration. Camp
Good tip - thank you!
I love the CAMP challenges. Love trying to figure the best to fit it.
Sherri..thanks so much for another informative podcast…loved all the content…congratulations on your lovely finishes…best wishes and happy stitching❤❤
I am enjoying the camp you are doing this year.
Sheri your videos just inspire me every single time! I always learn something and seeing the new patterns makes me want to check my bank balance! Love you! Blessings, Marlene
I love your framed pieces. So many pretty new patterns. 😊 Thank you for sharing information on adding items to make an original pattern. I love how you added patterns together and carried the same border. Great ideas. The graph sheet is a wonderful tool for both beginners and experienced stitchers.
Thank you Carolyn!
Lovely Video! Sew many fun patterns, ideas and tid bits of knowledge thank you! Girl Scout camp has made a lifelong expression on me. Stay Well
I really liked the little pillow with black pom pom trim. I love how much you love cross stitch. Your video was so nicely done.
Thank you so much!
It is always a pleasure watching your video. So many things to share. Thanks for spending the time with us!
Thanks for watching!
I like both bags!! Thanks for all your creative ideas that you pass along. Good luck to everyone doing cross stitch camp!
Camping as a child was always so enjoyable. I truly miss those days of being with my family. I really like vinyl front bags myself so I can see what I put inside easily. You enabled me so much I had to place another order with your store. Love the changes you made. I always change something to make it uniquely mine.
As a child, I loved to camp. As an adult, not so much! Thank you for the opportunity to go to camp from the comfort of home!
Ha - I'm not into camping as an adult, either!
Hi Sherry! So fun to see you at the Bristol weekend and now getting caught up on flosstube ❤ your work is beautiful!
Hi my new friend Mary! Loved spending time with you and already looking forward to the next time. 🙂
Cross stitch camp is so much fun….I am almost done my bird and starting to plan July grows. Thank you for organizing this and letting it be worldwide.
So glad you have another flosstube up! camp
Thank you so much for taking the time to share all of your goodies and tips. So very much appreciated.
Thank you for taking the time to watch, Joni!
Thank you for another fun Floss tube, Camp Director Sheri!
Another educational, fun video. Thank you for sharing your time with all of us. Camp, please.
Sherri, Always love spending time with you and particularly loved your process for modifying a chart. Hope you have a wonderful week!
Love all your new cross stitch designs! Always enjoy your floss tubes. Camp is such fun in the summer.
Love all the patriotic stitching! Enjoyed spending time at the fishing camp on the lake in the summer.
I'm glad I'm not the only one having a hard time picking some of my camp pieces!
That silly talking kitty was a perfect intro! Primrose Cottage reminds me so much of Lizzie Kate in her day. I’ve used a lot of LK for newbies. I agree these will be great for beginners. I’m having so much fun watching all the choices for camp. Thanks for being the director.
Thank you, Charlene! She's a character for sure, and we love her dearly. 🙂
Lots of good information as usual from you. It's so nice of you to arrange the Summer Camp program every year.
Thank you, Jan. I always have fun with Cross Stitch Camp and I'm glad others like it too!
Sheri, I love your flosstube videos. They are very informative! I've joined with everyone stitching with Cross Stitch camp this year. I'm having a great time. Thanks for all you do! Happy Stitching.
Thank you, Donna - and I'm glad you're camping along with us!
I have so many fond memories of camp from when I was younger. I chuckled when your cat was warning you to let her down. I had a cat that was a talker also. Love all your stitching….a real inspiration!
She's persnickety, but we love her. 🙂
I love all your show and tell, beautiful work. I wish I could join a camp one day. I would love the vinyl so I could see me projects. Take care
I joined Crossstitch Camp for the first time! Love all of the patriotic stitches you showed!
Welcome to Camp, Pamela!
This was a really enjoyable flosstube! Love all your finishes, your previous finishes, new patterns you share and the summer camp idea is really fun as well!
Thank you Lori!
Love your WIPS - you are making great progress on them. They are so pretty.
Take Care & Happy Stitching
❤️🤗🧵❤️
I love camp and appreciate the time and effort you put into it. I always pick patterns that I can't finish in time. Lol, still love it.
Thank you for a wonderful video . Your cat is beautiful. I love your tiny pieces. Happy stitching
I so look forward to your videos Sheri!! It's like visiting with a friend! Your framed pieces are gorgeous!! Thanks as always and happy stitching!
I'm glad we can be virtual friends, Wanda!
Your framed pieces are amazing especially the Summer Schoolhouse finish, what a great idea. I've never gone to camp but I wish I could have as a child. Thank you so much.
All of your framed finishes are so beautiful and I very much enjoyed seeing all your May new starts and current wips. Cross stitch Camp sounds so fun and I love including birds on so many things that I stitch. Thank you for another great video.
Thank you, Lorraine!
Everyone seems to be enjoying The Cross Stitch Camp.
Remember so much fun and friendships from church camp!!!!!
I really like both types of bags. I don’t have many but they are so pretty. I love watching the progress of cross stitch camp.
Hello there, Sherri! Your videos make me feel like we absolutely sitting across a table, maybe in a small cross stitch shop, sharing new things🙂 It's wonderful! Wow, those tiny necklaces you made are fantastic! I could not do that so I really admire that you did them. Have a wonderful next few weeks and enjoy your summer and also summer camp.
Thanks so much, Becky!
Hi Sheri! Thanks so much for another awesome video! I loved it! The pieces that you framed are just beautiful! I really enjoyed seeing what’s new in the shop & hearing how you switch out motifs in pieces you’re stitching or planning to stitch too! Take care, and I’ll see you next time! 😊😊
Thanks, Cindy!
Enjoyed taking part in the first month of the 2023 Cross Stitch Camp. Already have the first month completed and looking forward to July!
This is my first visit to your floss tube--love the patriotic kits. It is hot in Indiana and the county fair is the place to be--lots of animals and 4H projects. Love the animal project bag---looks antique! Thanks for all the info!
Welcome to my channel - I'm glad you found me!
I’m doing the camp patch and when I finished stitching the design I saw the direction to do the Nun stitch around the patch. I had no idea what that was so I went on Facebook and found a great tutorial by Jean Farris showing how to do it. She showed in detail how to do it, how to start and stop thread and how to end. I completeed my patch and now have a new skill. ❤️❤️❤️
It's kind of fun to do, isn't it? And a perfect finish for the edge!
ALWAYS happy to spend time with you!!!
❤❤
Lexi is adorable! Great video Sheri. I always learn so much. Summer Camp is so much fun! 🌺🌷❤️💕
Thank you Kimberly!
Your 46 count locket is stunning! So many tiny stitches, so very impressed!
Thank you, Leslie! I'm glad to have it done - ha!
I like all the different camp badges. They look like a fun stitch. This was the first of your Flosstubes that I've watched. I enjoyed it so much that I quickly subscribed and will go back and watch older Flosstubes.
Thank you for subscribing and watching, Karen - glad to have you here!
I always learn something new which I so appreciate. What gorgeous colors on Francis. Your other two are lovely also. Always a Great FT.
Good morning thank you for sharing so much. I really your new lines. Have a blessed day.
Summer cross stitch camp sounds like fun!
Enjoying working in my camp project while catching up with you today.
I love hearing you share the customizing ideas and techniques as well as your sampler starts. Camp will be fun…I’ll stitch the items while my son is at football camp. Thanks for sharing your passion and talent!
I love all of the tips that you share with us. Your shares get my juices flowing and makes me want to join the summer camp.
Come join us, Joyce!
I have joined Stitch Camp this year- yea! I always enjoy your “three things.” And all the ideas you share to modify patterns are valuable. Thanks!
I enjoy working on my cross stitching projects when we are in camp during the summer.
Love your camp badges, thank you for making them available for us!
Thank you, and you're very welcome!
Thank you so much for all your tips. I always learn something new. Camp sounds like so much fun. I really like the designers that are new to your shop. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for watching, Lori!
Thank you for sharing the information about cross stitch camp.
Camp. I love the way you explain changing the pattern.
Thanks for another video! And thanks for organizing the cross stitch camp. Love it!
I love David Bird’s little Becorns, so cute.
Your videos are always so informative, Sheri! And your traveling threads on the La-D-Da Spring Hare piece make it look like a constellation!
Well good - we'll go with that!
Camp! As always, thank you for all the inspiration! I am still giggling at Lexi showing her displeasure. 😁
She's a piece of work, for sure. (But we love her dearly!)
Great to see you again Sheri...love your shop and videos. I'm joining Cross Stitch Camp for the first time and am so excited.❤
Thanks for watching and I'm glad you're doing Camp this year!
Cross stitch CAMP , Summer sock camp so fun! Wish I could just take the summer off from work to play! 😊
Thanks for sharing your finished projects and ideas. So many cute projects and so little time. So glad that it is fame for cross stitch camp.
Thanks for watching, Epworth! And I'm glad you're camping again this summer. 🙂
I enjoyed seeing how you put your patterns into one larger piece. Very creative. Am enjoying my first stitching summer camp!.
Loved your video! I would never have paid attention to the threads you carried! Awesome cross stitching!
Thanks for sharing - I really like all the project bags and folders !!! ❤ love seeing the camp inspiration 🎉
Enjoyed your video, your starts and finishes. I’m really enjoying summer camp and seeing all of the bird designs. 😊
Wow great Flosstube with nice projects and nice purchases. I participate for the first time in Summer Camp.
I always loved going to CAMP 🏕 growing up !! Thank you for organizing our stitching summer 2023 camp 🤩 this will be my first !
So glad you're camping with us this year, Beth!
Happy to see Lexi, she doesn't have a problem sharing her opinions 😅. Enjoy your videos and all the information you share. Have a great summer camp 🏕
Ha - that's going to be my new phrase in describing her - "she doesn't have a problem sharing her opinions"! 😂
Thanks so much, I'm aways excited to see another video from you! I love all of the Patriotic charts that you showed and I am loving stitching Patriotic pieces right now. I adore the bird chart that your choose your camp piece. Janine
Camp is fun, it’s great to know that at any age you can still go to camp. Lol
Really enjoying Stitch Camp…thanks for the little pattern on your website to go along with it. Great finishing ideas 🪡
Adorable bags! Love the vinyl bags the best. Camp
We love to camp! We head out Sunday for another trip. Bringing lots of cross stitch with me.
Seeing your framed pieces is so inspiring! Great job! Camp
Thanks, Jodi! While I don't really enjoy the framing process, I'm always so glad to have them framed and up on the wall!
Thank you for another inspiring video! Loved the patriotic stitching patterns ❤. I look forward to your summer camp every year 😊.
Thank you, Kristi!
I hope everyone enjoys cross stitch camp this year. I have never taken part in one but I must try it one day.
Yes, you should jump in with us sometime!
Now you have me rethinking the piece I am thinking of doing for Camp. Loved your section on changing a design to make it your own. You inspired me to stitch Martha Scott in memory of my grandparents because the house reminded me of their house.
I love that!
I really appreciated you breaking down your Brenda Gervais breakdown.
Thank you for the little lesson on re-charting! It was very helpful!
I'm glad! And thanks for watching. 🙂
Enjoying camp! My first one. Very nice pattern parade of patriotics!
Its always fun to go to a camp I love your videos and liked hearing how to change patterns that always stresses me. Take care.....
I think all of your camp badges are adorable! Thank you for another great video. :)
Thank you - they are fun to design each year!
I never owned a cute stitched project bag; my bags were just the plastic ones you’d find on Amazon. So I’d be super happy to use my camp stitching projects in this pretty one. Thank you!
I enjoyed this Flosstube! I’m watched it while stitching on my camp project.❤
Thanks for watching, Stephanie!
My eyes hurt just listening to you talk about those three stitches on the 56 count. You are my hero for stitching 1 over 1 on 56! Thank you for a great video as always.
Ha - my eyes hurt, too! But it was one over one on 46 count. I tried one over one on 56 and just could not do it!!
Camp is a great word! I love your projects from today. And camp is fun. I've some projects that I've been itching to start and camp is a motivation.
