Wishing you all that you wish for yourself for Christmas and the New Year. Thankyou for the fun and laughter you have given us in 2023.
What a wonderful way to spend my afternoon!! I enjoyed it ladies! You both have beautiful homes!!! Feels like home to me!
I love to watch you two. I think samplers are awesome. My favorite Christmas flavor is peppermint. I am a rebel at heart.
I got to go to Texas this year and I went shopping with my granddaughters and my daughter in law. That is what they wanted for Christmas. We spent a full day shopping.
I usually end up buying Christmas online since my two boys and there families live in two different states. I used to go out and physically shop for all their gifts. But postage is so expensive I gave up and went to online. This year was different. I actually only purchased one item online for my son in California and purchased from ETSY for my granddaughter. I shipped all the rest as I had either made the gift or shopped for it.
I wish safe travels for both of you and a Merry Christmas to each of you and your families.
Ladies thanks for the house tours I enjoy seeing how everyone decorates. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. See you in 2024.
I just love watching you ladies. You are both amazing! Thank you!
Y'all were too funny today. I get how the fully finishing becomes a chore sometimes. I fully finished 2 Jingle Ball ornaments tonight that I had put off for a week. I do however, have some things I've been putting off for years. 🤣😂 I shop any way I can get the job done and mostly fly by the seat of my pants. I really prefer small unique shops or to make gifts. ❤ the home tours! Beautiful!!! Peppermint, Rebel 🎄🎀 MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎀🎄
Love to see y’all. Peppermint, sampler, rebel, shopping.
Great flosstube.peppermint shopping
Peppermint, sampler, rebel, shopping. My shopping is down to online mostly now. Hate fighting the crowds.
Enjoyed the video…..peppermint,sampler, rebel…I shop small businesses when I can . I also like to shop year long when I see something special
Merry Christmas to you both and your families. I hope 2024 is wonderful for you, with many happy surprises. I don't like shopping, so I try to do it all year long. If I'm traveling I will look for different things for my gift list. Time now for some hot chocolate with peppermint.
Merry Christmas Ladies! Enjoy your family and friends! 🎄❤️🪡
I enjoy local shopping but mix it up with ‘through the mail’ things. That sampler is cute!
Thanks for your flosstube visit! I loved the home tours. I have finished my Christmas shopping. Peppermint is a wonderful Christmas scent. I have yet to stitch a sampler, what a rebel! Merry Christmas to all! Stay safe and healthy.
Wishing you a wonderful peppermint tasting in your cocoa while shopping because I love the holidays. I love sampler with or without lint🤦♀️rebel sampler too. I hope you have stitching fun and family joy
Peppermint and Sampler - Merry Christmas Ladies! I am trying to plan for my 2024 stitching and really would like to finish as many WIPs in 2024 as I can but I can't seem to stop "starting" things! As far as Holiday Shopping I try to make all my gifts and we don't really buy a lot of gifts anymore, our family decided getting together and spending time together is more important and everyone is on board, we started the no gift thing a couple years ago and everyone says it works! I like to surprise people all through the year with handmade gifts1
Great video, as always! Thank you both for sharing. Your homes are beautiful, and your crafts are gorgeous. Also, your moms pieces are very beautiful.
Peppermint Sampler
Thank you both for the tours . Very nice!!
Peppermint. Rebel. MERRY CHRISTMAS LADIES. 🎉
Thank you for bowing me allot you Christmas decorations they are really welcoming . I just love peppermint candy at Christmas time. Have a blessed and healthy Christmas .
When I think of peppermint for some reason, I think of Charlie Brown 😂. The sampler and the Rebel sampler are lovely. I stitchy shop at 123, but i tend to do personalised shopping with Etsy. Have an amazing Christmas ladies 🎅
Love your stitching!! Peppermint, sampler, rebel, shopping
I would love to stitch a peppermint sampler because I am a rebel. I do very little shopping - immediate family gets money, so only need a couple other gifts for extended family Christmas.
I really enjoyed your holiday home tours. Thank you for sharing. Have a wonderful Christmas ladies. Peppermint, sampler, rebel, shopping. This year I did most of my shopping online.
I am quite addicted to York peppermint patties this year, so between them and all my stitching time I am rounder than I was in 2022. Merry Christmas 🎄
Peppermint. Have a great Holiday Season!
I enjoyed the floss tube. I shop at Amazon because it’s easier for me to ship the gifts out of town. Merry Christmas 🎄. Peppermint sampler rebel shopping
I love Shopping!!!! Especially 123. I have 1 to share 2 to sew and 3 for you and me!!! Loved your video. Spending Christmas at home stitching. Merry Christmas to both of you. Happy Stitching 🪡 🧵 😊
Another great video! Merry Christmas!
Sampler, rebel, shopping
Hi ladies I’m so glad yall are together again❤ Thanksgiving had to be hard to not be together as an entire family! We haven’t had any snow here yet( southern Indiana) but I would love about 6 inches for Christmas! 🎄 I dream of moving to the Rockies because of the beauty of it all and I’m only a couple years from retirement so maybe?? I really like everything you stitch and I stitch several of the same, my Halloween Quaker has been framed for a couple years now and won my one of my blue ribbons at the fair so that’s fun! Believe it or not I have never stitched a mill hill after all these years… I find myself drawn to them ! We’ll see maybe a satsuma street instead, I bead all my Miras and Nora’s so it’s not that, I think it’s the messy floss I don’t want to deal with😮
Peppermint, rebel, shopping! Have a great couple of weeks! Typically I shop at Etsy and 1,2,3 stitch and fat quarter shop, Colorado cross stitchers shop, kitten stitchers shop and traditional stitches shop! Merry 🎅 🎄Christmas!
Merry Christmas! The Rockies are beautiful! Come!
I loved that Santa pattern by Kelly! Super cute and I want to try out that effect for the hat.
It was so fun hanging with Nancy last weekend Jingle bell ball. ❤🎄🎄
It was fun! Thank you!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Enjoy your time with your families
Peppermint
Sampler
I am retired and just like to do all the crafts.
I do a lot of shopping on line but I make a lot of my gifts
I’m laughing so hard. I went to Wright State in the mid 90’s and the Busy Beaver (I had to pause and look at the price sticker) was a favorite haunt. The stock then looked like it hadn’t been updated since the early 80’s. I used to buy the scratchiest cheap wool yarn to knit scarves for classmates there. P.S. I’m in your camp with the perforated paper.
What great haul. I enjoy our visits. I hope you have a very Merry Christmas. Peppermint candy canes are fun. I shop in store and online.
I like peppermint during the holiday season. Merry Christmas!
I really loved the Jingle Ball. Peppermint taste good. Sampler. Shopping is so fun, I did a little too much at the Jingle Ball. I Black Friday, I shop locally and online. I love finding the perfect gift or some thing I know they will love. Merry Christmas ladies. And Happy Stitching.
Merry Christmas! Job away, my friend!
Always fun to watch you girls! Have a wonderful holiday, I’m doing 24 in 24 too!
Merry Christmas my stitching friends🎄🤶🎅
Love you video ladies and showing all of the cross stitching. I do love the chart by Lindy Stitches called The Queen of Thread.
I just made peppermint brownies Sunday for my husband’s birthday.
I prefer to shop local.
So glad to see you together! Thank you for sharing! Have a very merry Christmas! Safe travels on those snowy roads! Thank you for the home tour! Lovely warm houses❤️. Happy stitching!
Merry Christmas!
Beautiful finishes!!! I hope you have a super nice and Merry Christmas with the company of your lovely families!!! I loved the tour of your houses decorated so nice and cozy!!!
Another great flosstube! Thanks for keeping me company. Loved all the stitching. Thanks also for the tours of your decorations. Loved it all!
Merry Christmas to you both! 💗💓💕
Merry Christmas to you too!
Both of your homes and beautiful and so cozy. Thanks for sharing. Happy New Year to you both. ❤
Merry Christmas to you and your families. Peppermint
I love mill hill and stitching on perforated paper. But they can be challenging with the thread and getting the pattern centered.
I’m a rebel while shopping for peppermint, love to get sampler. I like to start shopping in January and try to get at least one or two gifts per month including my sewing gifts. Spread it out so I can enjoy the season. Local stores and unfortunately Amazon because the stores refer to finding it. 😮merry Christmas
Love the haul!!! You ladies are so cool. And so is Colleen Rebel Stitcher. Glad you were able to get together! I try to shop local for the holidays. I gift mostly experiences. I have teens and I will take all the time with them that I can get!
Thank you for sharing your Christmas decorations. Both of your homes look lovely. Love all the Grinch items! Peppermint, sampler, rebel, shopping
You’re a mean one Mr Grinch!😁
We were raised to help others, and it's awesome to see the gratitude in someone's eyes especially a stranger. At times I think who will helps us, assist in some way when we are much older. I'm not a fan of perforated paper either, but they are a nice way to switch it up. OK, I will pause the video here!!! Back ... How fun to hang out with Shellie, she seems so genuine, down to earth ... I bet it was a blast. Peppermint candy canes are a must during December. I have Grinch shirts, love them. I shop all the stores in person, and have to mail 95% of it.
You must have amazing patience. Our postal ladies are great, but they have huge lines right now!
Great video. Have a wonderful Christmas.
Happy Holidays! Love your decorations in your homes and stitchy spots. I have Early Christmas morning and am anxious to see yours and get started. As for shopping, fortunately my list is short so I shop at a few stores in the mall and bake goodies. For my daughter and hubby, this year I am fully finishing projects I stitched for them throughout the year (Perfect Hot Cocoa, Season's Greetings, Totoro, and Halloween Parade.) i would love to stitch the peppermint.
Another fun video ladies! Thanks for sharing your holiday home tours, it’s always fun to see others holiday decor. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you both! 🎄
Happy Holidays to you and your family. Looking forward to seeing you in the New Year 🎉
Merry Christmas to you and your families ☃️🎄⭐️🎅
Peppermint Merry Christmas to both of you.
Great flosstube! ❤❤❤
Thanks for sharing- Merry Christmas 🎄
Peppermint sampler rebel
When I go to the Virginia Beach area in the fall, I get a lot of my shopping done. Home Goods(we don’t have locally), several NEX locations, etc. everything is bigger and better there. I also hit AAFES here, and a couple of specialty shops, and of course Amazon!!! Nancy, I also purchased the beach pattern! Maybe a stitch/start along this summer? Merry Christmas y’all from the Mississippi Gulf Coast!
Merry Christmas to you both and to your families 🎄🎄
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I shop online and locally as well. I do enjoy Peppermint Candy canes.
Peppermint rebel shopping
I used to try and make everything, but can’t anymore. I use local, Amazon, and some homemade items.
I think I will be a rebel this year and not go shopping. Instead I believe I’ll find a sampler of peppermint candy! Merry Christmas to you both!
Maybe odds be ever in your favorite😉😁
Merry Christmas to you and your families. I understand the lure of Mill Hill kits. I have one, but I've been too intimidated to start it. It's a goal to start it before Christmas 🎄 Peppermint, Shopping, Sampler.
Merry Christmas to you and your family's
Peppermint! I really enjoy watching you ladies! Love what you share! You live in such a beautiful area! We have traveled through going to Montana! Merry Christmas to you too!
Merry Christmas, ladies! Not much shopping being done this year. A few amazon purchases and cash! Rebel
Everything is finally all wrapped and under the tree I’m hoping to get some stitching done in the next couple of weeks. Last year we were trying to sell our house so no decorating or tree so this year I went a little crazy. Found some ornaments with the move. Plus it’s no snow where I’m at now so I’m doing some outside decorating. It’s fun. So many years in Colorado we didn’t have many stores where we were so I would shop local a little but we usually ran over to grand junction to the mall for most shopping. This year I’m in a town where there is every store you can image but still some Amazon. Went to mail stuff to my family and got sticker shock at ups so I don’t think next year I’ll be shipping so much. Sad to say. Love your tour of Christmas houses. Merry Christmas to you and your families
Our brother is in Fruitia. I love Grand Juntions! Merry Christmas!
Hi! Great video!! You kept me company while I put my 4 red threads into my Red Schoolhouse sampler pinkeep! 😊 happy stitching! Lisa
I love it! We love your channel and your projects!
Hi Ladies, So nice to visit with you again! Awesome video! Rebel, Peppermint, Shopping, sampler, shopping! Great haul and stitching! Merry Christmas! 🎄🎁. Happy New Year 🎉🎉❤. Love your sisterly love. My group loves money, gift cards and some small goodies! What are some of the zoom connections for 12 x 12. Love both homes!❤❤❤🎉
I had so much fun stitching Christmas Parade. Since I’m retired, I stitch up to 6 hours a day. That’s how it got done so fast! I hope you all have a great holiday. 🫎
It was beautiful
Gosh I need to retire!! So I can stitch everyday
I enjoyed your video again....back together!! we haven't had snow, but we'll probably pay for it later. I finished some sled patterns last year on perforated paper. They were small so it worked great! Peppermint candy canes are the best! I started a sampler and made the whole border meet but haven't put the motifs inside, I keep changing my mind! maybe I'm being a rebel!! I don't do much Christmas shopping as we have a family event in January after my birthday. Merry Christmas to you both and hope to hear from you soon with another video. ☃
Great use of wording!😅 Don’t be a Rebel and work on it!
Happy Christmas to you both 🎄🤶🎅
Peppermint
I holiday shop online because I am in a small town
I do my Christmas shopping on Amazon. I love stitching a sampler. Rebel
I purchased our last gift today! Amazon is thumbs up for m!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Always fun watching both of you...Peppermint and rebel ....have a great Christmas and a Happy New Year.....take care...
Nancy - Meeting you on a "date" after just meeting you in a room, I felt the same way as you did meeting Mrs Jones - you were the one "friend" I was hoping to meet at the Ball - Jenny you too :) but I remembered you had said you were travelling that weekend 🤩Sharon from Canada
I am excited to meet everybody that took the time to stop and say hello! It is harder then most thinks to talk to a “ stranger”!
I actually started The Gift, Nancy you have me beat. About 10 stitches in, I had to admit all my head gear lighting and magnification aren't enough for the 32 CT linen. Time to restart on a maybe 14 CT ! Getting older is a thrill and a pickle all in one!
I get it! I have to frog it!
Great to see you both. Love all your haul, awesome. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
🎄Merry Christmas 🎄
I shop throughout the year and hope to be finished by August.
Love Wyoming. Spent a lot of time in Big Piney.
The west side of Wyoming is very pretty.
Loved seeing your decorations, didn't see any Peppermint in the candy dish though
Merry Christmas to you and your families! peppermint sampler
Thanks for sharing! Merry Christmas! Rebel. I shop local and internet.
Merry Christmas!
Hi Ladies! Nancy it was great meeting you in the Enablers Room at Jingle Ball this year. Hopefully you have had a chance to check out our new FlossTube Stitching Past My Bedtime. :) Jenny, I totally get your frustration with the Mill Hill perforated paper. Becareful on 18 ct, your beads may be too big. The paper is 14 ct. Just in case you want to switch to 28 before you get too far down the path. Try out a bead. :)
Great advice! Thank you
Merry Christmas and happy new year.
Hi Ladies, lovely to see you back together again x Happy Christmas to you both and your Families x I usually shop online but not till after my Birthday on the 19th lol so tends to be a bit of a rush 🤣🤣🤣 love seeing in your homes 😍 x
Happiest of Birthdays!
Merry Christmas to you and yours
I love to shop and do a lot locally but more and more Amazon is taking over.
Merry Christmas ladies
Hey girls! I mostly shop online and a couple of marathon shopping days in Billings. I will be back in Sheridan for Christmas. Merry Christmas to you both. Hugs!
Hugs to you too! Merry Christmas!
Another fun one! Thanks for sharing your spaces. Jenny, can you explain about antiquing your project after you have stitched it. I’ve never tried that. Wishing you and yours a wonderful Christmas.
Thank you for another great Flosstube, love seeing you both together. love the peppermint, sampler, rebel, charts
Loved the tour of your beautiful homes!! ❤️❤️❤️
Merry Christmas and thanks for sharing your beautifully decorated house.
Merry Christmas girls!! Have a great time with those you love 🎅🏻 maybe see you on New Year’s Eve 👍
Enjoyed your home tours;thanks for sharing. Jenny, I think you said you were restarting your Mill Hill on 18ct fabric. I've done a couple small ones and if I'm remembering right they were on 14 ct. I'm not sure how the beads will fit on the 18. I could be totally off, and if so, ignore me, but thought I would mention it. peppermint sampler
I hope that you all have a wonderful family Christmas whatever shape that takes. Enjoy your 12 x 12 plans and I wish you both a very blessed 2024. Hugs across the Atlantic ladies!
Another great video, ladies. I always have so much fun watching you and catching up with what you've been working on. Your Christmas decor is so pretty and enjoyed seeing that. I love the sampler and the Rebel stitcher designs. My Christmas shopping is nearly done except for a few stocking stuffers and I'm mostly giving cash to the grandkids because apparently they like to pick out their own stuff, which is fine with me and much easier anyway. Wishing you and yours a very Happy Merry Christmas and blessings to you all.
