    Not sure if anyone replied earlier; but a "pill bug" is what we in the US call a rollie pollie. Those little bugs that when we touch them they roll into a ball. Great to see you back. All the best.

    Glad you guys are back and I’ve missed you. I’m sorry you were having a sad time. I stopped the video and said a prayer for you, Brenda.

    I was at Hobby House Needleworks last Monday. David was soooo nice and I was able to shop. I was the first customer to check out at the new counter!

    Pillbug is an interesting name for fabric! They are more commonly referred to in the US as "Rolie Polies." People usually only have to deal with them if there's a lot of dead vegetation around their home. Or if they bring potted plants in for the winter and don't use proper insecticides. They're not harmful, but I don't know that I'd name a fabric after them!!! 😂

    I hope things are going better for you. So many things seem askew and it makes one want to stay in a crafting bubble. I loved seeing all of your market and non market purchases. So much inspiration! You bring so much joy to us all!!
    I am expecting a wonderful package from The Attic where I hope to branch out on the Marchpane 48 count.
    My suggestion for the mice - get a cat. 😁

    Thanks ladies for your video. A pill bug is a slater, a small bug that rolls itself into a ball when disturbed.

    Hi Girls! Fantastic floss tube, as always ❤ Thank you also for sharing the info on Nicola's meeting with Rebecca Scott - it was incredibly informative and interesting! I never knew about the young girls in the orphanages learning stitching / needlework skills! It's so fascinating that some of them can be traced back through the Samplers they've left us! Really enjoyed watching their video ❤ You gals are such an inspiration to all of us. Hang in there during any sad times you have - you know we all have your backs and will support you through any hard times! ❤❤❤ Be gentle with yourselves and Happy Stitching! 🩷🌷🩷🌷🩷

    Mary Collier 1814 Sampler oh my goodness it is gorgeous! Those vibrant colors soooo I need to go to see who has it in stock. Perhaps The Attic? The video today was so much fun seeing your stitching, hearing of your Washington visit Laura and the many little pokes and jabs in fun between you both makes my heart happy! Brenda you shall be in my prayers for whatever need you may have. God is good and loves you ❤

    It was so great to see you both, you have been missed! Laura, I am glad that you had a wonderful trip to see your dad. Brenda, I don’t know what has been going on, but I do hope things are better now. Spring should hopefully help with longer days, sunshine, and warmer weather! You both are such special ladies, and I will keep you in my prayers. It goes without saying that I always enjoy your stitching projects, and of course seeing all of the goodies you have purchased! This was a great haul seeing all of the things that caught your eye from Market! Take care and God Bless you both! ❤

    @Kelley_stitches Před 5 měsíci

    So glad you both are back. Sorry about the trials you both have gone through. I laughed so hard when Laura said we were supporting the needlework industry….so now next is haul! My husband didn’t get the joke he just looked at me funny! I went way overboard on market releases. I am going to be calling the Attic to see if when we are in Phoenix I can stop in and get a couple of kits. I haven’t been to Phoenix in 40 years so we are making a vacation of visiting family and doing some site seeing. My cousin told me about a train that takes you to the Grand Canyon it’s already booked! After hearing so many people talk about the attic I want to make sure I get a chance to visit.

  • @gillianbloomfield5708
    @gillianbloomfield5708 Před 5 měsíci

    So happy to see you back. 😊 I am an Aussie and pill bugs are more commonly known as slaters. They are multilegged crustaceans, grey brown in colour that look like tiny armadillos. They feed on decaying organic material and you often find them when you lift up a pot plant. Good for the garden!
