    I had so much fun visiting the shop during Memorial Day>. I drove from California Memorial Day weekend, and had an amazing time meeting the girls and roaming throughout the shop. IT was so worth the drive. Your shop models are jaw dropping gorgeous! Thank you for the warm and wonderful customer service! I’ll be back! ❤️

    Another fun video! Love you both. Kindness and patience towards staff is important. It is not like people do not have any stash to stitch. If you were closed they would have to wait. You are doing a great job under the circumstances. Can't wait for the next video.

    Thanks so much for featuring GiGi R charts; I am trying to pick out my 1st one to stitch...so far the Rose Wreath Sampler has my heart. Your patriotic section is beautiful....I LOVED the Gettysburg Address in silks, that is certainly now on my Wish List! Onward to the next video! xoxo

    Girls! How could anyone not appreciate your efforts.... I am leaving a voicemail today and will have no problem waiting for your call: This flosstube was fantastic and I have loved Gigi for years: If I had to start again Gigi would be my number one choice: I-was introduced to Scarlet Letter first but that has also been a blessing,,, Thank you for all your hard work and know that we appreciate all you do: Jean you’re a true needlewoman and I bow to your expertise!

    Hi, loved video #6. Your shop is gorgeous. I'm starting from the first video right now. FYI, my husband made those ruler boxes for me several years ago. I had forgotten I had them because my craft room is under construction right now. Anyway, I saw them yesterday and thought "I need to stitch some smalls for these." And now I'm seeing them in your premiere video. I just have to get to Arizona one of these days. We have nothing like your shop here in Rockwood, Tennessee. Love you guys.

    What a beautiful shop! I have done cross stitched samplers for a long time from other kits. I had a great time working on them until it just got too hard to see where I was stitching especially on some of the linens with such a small weave. Love all the framing too! Your samplers are just beautiful!

  • @katestanton6774
    @katestanton6774 Před 4 lety

    Thanks for all the joy you guys bring to the stitching community! 💕 I adore your videos. I started GiGi R's Bridget Power a couple months ago on 56 count after seeing some of Jean's beautiful (tiny!) stitching on Fibertalk, though now that I've hit some of the over 1 parts, I sort of regret sticking with DMC. Now I definitely know who to email to purchase silk conversions! :)

  • @bomashishalisa6434

    I just found out you are now on Flosstube, so I am starting to watch all your videos. Jean, I do not know your history, but found that you have battled cancer once before and are now having to deal with it again. I am so sorry. I have battled cancer twice myself and thank God, I am now doing well 12 years after I was first diagnosed. I am here for you if you need any advice; however, it's been quite a long time since I had treatment and I am sure things have changed, but support never changes. I wish you the best of luck with your treatment and hope for a clear outcome. Thank you for these videos. I am really enjoying them. God bless you.

    Not fair - so many, too many, starts. I’m trying to finish Ann Bowers And Death by Cross Stitch. Needless to say I’m bored but I’m trying to be good. The starts are all I needed to continue stitching early in the day. I’ll call with my orders soon. Not “shopping” outside of the house leaves me with money to burn (or whatever the phrase is). Love the chats between the Tarts especially the good laughter. Love to all!!

    Well of course you have to know that I'm going to ask if Carolyn is now going to change her channel name to "Tart Sisters"... : ) It was so encouraging (again!) to see all the samplers being stitched up, whether they are new starts, old starts, in-between... and makes me feel so happy to know I am not alone (I get very very excited when I finish something because I tend to start so many!) Thanks again and praying esp. for Jean daily (you know if my kids were on the receiving end of a rude phone call they would just say to the caller, 'suck it up, buttercup!' ie, just deal with it...) love you both and can't wait for the next video!

    Jean: I love your enthusiasm and excitement over your stitching "starts!" It's nice that you're still thrilled after many stitched samplers.
    Visiting your shop is on my bucket list. I'm in Las Vegas so it's a very doable trip. Your shop is lovely and so are you. You're in my prayers while you're fighting the battle.

    You are so fun and helpful! I love the videos you create. One little suggestion: If you place your camera/phone at face level, we will have a better view of you, the objects you are showing us and we will see less of the ceiling tiles. You could put it on a table or a tall box, something more face level. It will make a huge difference. Thank you for all you do to make stitching wonderful!

And I can’t believe that people would be rude when contacting you...sheesh! As much as we all love needlework and want new stuff, at the end of the day, it’s just stitching! Nobody should be rude over that! I thank you all for all of your hard work, and I hope you can relax and get lots of stitching time in this long holiday weekend!

I will watch this more than once, because the stitching is so much more beautiful than chart pictures. Several Gigs are on my list now. I’m working on Red Deer Sampler . I’m sorry that people were unkInd and hurt feelings. This chaos we’ve been through should teach us to be more kind and patient. God bless you.

    So happy to see all the starts by “Sweet-tart” Jean. They are all so lovely. I just finished Viola, as that is my paternal grandmother’s name. She died when I was young and I have many fond memories of her. I personalized it with her name and dates. I love it so much. I want to stitch the wreath sampler for my husbands grandma. She was a dear loving lady who loved flowers and her yard was glorious. He name was Wreath.
    I really enjoy GiGi’s charts.
    I hope you both have a great weekend and blessing to you. Prayers for Sweet-Tart Jean🛐💟✝️
