Watching your video I learn 2 things: hardanger is beautiful and shepherds bush designs are gorgeous.
Well ladies I’m still binge watching, third episode and still going. Friday night therapy it is with Jane and Julie
Oh my days I’ve got to add to my comment and say Julie unplugged go girl!
I am currently stitching “Today I Choose Joy”! Imagine my surprise when I discovered in this episode that you are the Julie who designed it!! How fun! It is such a beautiful chart! It calls for Weeks Dye Works Iris and Kudzu, as well as DMC Dark Grape (3835). I am using DMC Antique Violet Medium (3041), Pine Green Medium (3363), and the called for DMC Dark Grape.
I was diagnosed with Stage 4 metastatic breast cancer in January 2022. I couldn’t buy your chart fast enough after I saw it shown on a FlossTube two months later. It depicts the attitude that I am choosing to have despite my terminal diagnosis - making the most of each day that I have and choosing joy! Thank you, Julie, for your beautiful design! I’m enjoying your FlossTube very much!
You both looked so beautiful in this video and I love the way you interact with each other. Your friendship just abundantly flows over into the screen.
I want to live closer to you two! You have so much fun and I love seeing all the great things you present! Excited for the next video in order! 😀🥰
What fun it is to share time with you both! 🪡🪡🪡
Thank you, Jean!
Gratitude Sampler is STUNNING!!!
I can’t count the number of times that my jaw hit the floor during this video. First of all Jane your stitching is gorgeous, and I think it might break my heart to see all of the beautiful things in your drawer of no return. I hope with Julie’s gentle nudging, that some of those who make it out of the drawer and will be displayed proudly. And Julie, speechless. Just speechless.
Love that you went off script and just had fun, loved seeing you two burst into giggles! Beautiful stitch work
Thanks, Kathy. We do manage to crack ourselves up. Thanks for joining us again!
You two are killing me! Please, no scripts! Perfect just the way you are. Thank you!
I too loved the off script. You ladies together are so funny and it’s so apparent the strong bond you have. You should do a bonus episode showing works from Janes drawer. Maybe she will be inspired to get them fully finished and on display! Of all the floss tube I watch, you two are my absolute favorite. Keep the videos coming!
Thanks for your kindness, Melissa. Maybe we will do a special episode of things in the drawer of no return. We're very humbled to hear we are your favorites. We hope we won't let you down. See you next time!
It’s so good to see you two again! Keep sharing your tips snd tricks please! I love to keep learning about needlework!! Thanks again
Linda, it's so great that you joined us again. We will have lots of tips and tricks coming your way. Let us know if you have any questions and we would be happy to answer them. - jane
Your early videos are just as fun as the current ones. You don’t need a script. 😂😂 Looking so forward to watching all of them. I only found you at video 24. Love love love
Vintage country mocha is my new favorite color!!!!
Release the hounds! I for one would love to see the things in the secret drawer! Love you ladies.
Exactly - let the dogs out! There will be more glimpses into the drawer of no return coming soon. Thanks so much for watching and for your kind words, Miz!
You two seem to be having so much fun. Very enjoyable. Julie, you will find silk to be lovely to work with. Take your time, and find a small project to try it on. Love you ladies
Thank you, Valerie for standing behind me and reinforcing to Julie that she can work with silk! We're so glad you joined us. Hope to see you next time. - jane
Loved the unscripted version! Such lovely hardanger and other pieces, ladies. Enjoy your family time!
Thank you, Wendy. I'm looking forward to some cabin stitching time. - jane
You two are so much fun. Unedited!! I do like seeing all the Shepherd’s Bush… so win! And, Julie… your projects are on my radar as well. Several years ago, a few guild ladies in my local EAC Chapter each bought a copy of your pattern for your Hardanger Bag. We did it together as a workshop. So, after I discovered your website, I now feel like I have “met the designer”.
I do like us unedited. :) I'm glad you like seeing the Shepherd's Bush - I am addicted. Isn't Julie's website full of beautiful things?
Lots of fun with the two of you!! As far as needles, I always carry a needle in my billfold, just in case! I would absolutely love to see more of Jane’s “drawer” projects, no matter how long ago they were stitched. I am enjoying your videos without a script. LOL. Love the Prairie Schooler. Love all of the beautiful stitching……….
Hi Pam. What a great tip to carry a needle in your billfold. May we share that tip next time and give you credit? Brilliant!
Yes, of course! 😀
Love watching you girls, Julie and Jane! Couldn't find a new show tonight so I can still watch you cause I'm behind or late to the game girl. Don't know about those spooky stitchings but what a great Grandmother you are to do that. Your Blackbird stitching is very nice . I like you choice of Cayenne color. I really like your love of fabric Jane, as an "Old" cross stitcher we collected patterns and now they have Beautiful hand dyed fabrics who can resist? Enjoyed much, of course. Love the challenge for Julie, hope she will give the 40 ct a try!
Love your new channel. I was so excited to see your faces pop up on my feed. Enjoy your family time!
Thank you, Lauren. It must be frightening to see our faces pop up. LOL. I'm looking forward to a bit of stitching time at the cabin. It seems like forever since I've been there. Maybe later this summer we will do an episode from there.
You two are so much fun and bring me lots of laughs! And I m fascinated with your Hardanger chats. Maybe someday--because of your coaxing.
Jump into the Hardanger pool with us, Sally!
You girls crack me up You bring joy to me loving ❤ your videos beautiful stitching I've just purchase my 1st shepherd Bush pattern thank you ladies ❤
Hi Justine! Thank you so much for your kind words. Which Shepherd's Bush pattern did you buy?
I just love ❤️ watching you gals! What fun you must have together. I would love to learn how learn how to do hardanger. It is beautiful!! I live in Idaho so it would be impossible to take one of your classes, but if you ever decide to do one virtually, please let me know and I will sign up!
Love seeing the two of you having so much fun. I say throw away the script and go for it. Your stitching is beautiful and your Hardanger is gorgeous. Going to watch #4 now. Take care!!!
Thank you, Katherine! We're so glad you joined us. I hope you'll join us again.
You two are so funny, keep watching over and over. I will have to pull the Hardanger back out and try again
Thank you, Carol. I hope you did pull your Hardanger back out!
Love the lap stand...I need to dig mine out!!
I love seeing your hardanger stitching. Enjoy the tips.
Thank you so much, Donna!
I love the tree. ..mine is stitched and framed. ...
You two are hilarious!! I needed a good laugh!! Flying by the seat of your pants and off the cuff keeps things light and spontaneous…that definitely works for you two and, I believe, your followers as well!! Another great video but I would love to have seen some of that delightful delivery fabric, Jane!! 😉😀😂 Not wishing my life away, but looking forward to your next video!! Until then…happy stitching and enjoy your family time!!
Thank you, Elaine. Sometimes we crack ourselves up. Next time I will do the walk of shame and show you my latest fabric indulgences. :) See you next time. - jane
Great Video Ladies! Tech Support is always just a call (and block) away... travel time is short but getting dressed is a must ... trust me you don't want me to show up in my jammies!
Thank you, Katherine. You are welcome here in your jammies any time. :) Thanks for much for your help and your patience with us old ladies!
Julie....LOL....Go with the flow. I love the NO Script format. Everything was lovely and your video was the perfect companion for my Saturday evening stitching. Loved "you just bought an Iron"...Janes response...AND???? I might plug it in. LOL My kind of gal. I will take the sage advice of Why be a tip hoarder? with me throughout the week.
Hi Cindy. We are all about the unedited "words of wisdom". LOL My iron is still in the closet and cold as ice. :)
You guys are so funny - I love it! Jane you must admit darning is much easier than hardanger picots! LOL. Also, to keep track of your buttons, staple the button pack to the back page of the chart. This is how I use to do it in my store. Julie- if you’d like to try out different silk threads, I can gladly put together a sample package for you to try out the different types. Just send me a message with an email so I can get info to mail. Trebizond silk was used quite a lot by Thea Dueck of The Victoria Sampler for hardanger klostern blocks. It doesn’t sit as easily as PC5, but it looks amazing. Shepherds Bush kits I believe use Soie d’Alger but there are also several makers of over dyed silks. Great job with the videos guys!
You're right, Angela. I prefer pattern darning to picots every day! I spent Sunday afternoon stapling my orphaned buttons to as many charts as I could find. :)
Another great video! Thank you for doing them. Looking forward to your next one. Haven’t worked on any hardanger for quite some time. But my fingers are starting to itch to start a piece.
Thank you so much, Karen. I hope your fingers will itch enough to get you to start a new hardanger piece. We'd love to see it once you have it under way. :)
You will love silks Julie. ..they stitch so smoothly.....
Staple the bag of buttons to your chart
Holy moly! I have never laughed so hard. You two are hilarious! Thank you so much. Thanks for the button hole tips. Its my nemis! Such wonderful stitching from you both. I'm in north Central Minnesota, so maybe we are neighbors!
Hi Susan. I'm glad we could make you laugh. My stomach hurt a bit after we finished from all of the laughing. I grew up in Freeport. Where are you in central Minnesota? Maybe we are neighbors!

Hello ladies!!! Love seeing your smiles, and your pretties. So enjoy your videos.💜💙
Thank you Miss Mandy! We should get together one of these days.
Oh my goodness, I laughed through out but especially over the wooden spools/ weights story! I just love your flosstube and look forward to your next episode!
Hi Inez. Miss Bella comes up with the best sayings. We hope you will join us for episode #4 which should post later today.
So glad you two are in the Floss Tube community. And so happy I found you! I laughed through #3 - full belly laughs, Please never edit your videos - they are perfect just the way they are. I have done hardanger - about a zillion years ago; who knows? Maybe I'll be inspired to try it again some day. I look forward to each and every video. 🥰
Thank you for your warm welcome, Joni. I hope you will try hardanger again and will share it with us when you do. We hope you will join us again. Episode #5 is coming soon!
Hi ladies lots of fun listening to your video I guess I have to start hiding again it’s a very encouraging thanks happy stitching Cheers
Thank you, Susan. I'm glad we could bring a bit of fun your way and we hope you join us for episode #4. :)
I could watch you two all day, every day. Lifting weights, lol 🏋️♀️ 'cause maths!!
Thank you so much, Amie!
Jane…it’s now 3:10 a.m. and I e been binging y’all’s channel…I’m HOWLING cuz, like you, I don’t sleep either! It’s soooo nice to know there’s another loon out in the universe with the same sleep pattern I’ve had all my life. 🤣🤣 I’m absolutely loving the chat sessions you and Julie have produced because besides cross stitching I also adore hardanger! Nice to see some hardanger thrown into the mix! Keep on filming…I need more to keep me company in the wee hours of the morning!
Hi Jan! It's comforting to meet another loon. :) I'm so glad we can keep you company for a bit as you do hand to hand combat with REM sleep like I do. We both hope you will join us again. - jane
Oh you ladies! What a joy it is to watch you! Thank you for sharing your friendship and your obsessions! Julie, in this video and also in #2, you wore tops that look like a similar style but different beautiful fabrics. Would you share the company that makes those tops? Those fabrics are lovely. I look forward to watching #4. Carol in Texas
Thanks for your kind words, Carol. I'll let Julie weigh in on her fashionable self. :)
I purchased a couple of my tops at TJmaxx a while ago...thanks for the kind compliment.
Julie, is Today I Chose Joy still available? So beautiful and my two favorite colors.
Yes through welcomestitchery.com type j designs in the search bar it should come up. Or give them a call.😊

What did you have in those cups ladies??? Lol

I absolutely love your channel. Found you by looking for Haranger. Just started my first project (a table cloth) Usually a quilter but was not able to bring my sewing machine 🪡🪢 🪡
