Oh, Brenda . . . .Lost No More is absolutely stunning . . . .takes my breath away. Bravo!
Thank You Cathy!
Oh my goodness Brenda! All your finishes are absolutely amazing! And your WIPS are just as awesome! I love watching your videos! It’s always so inspiring for me!
Thank You!!!
You continue to amaze me on how much you get done for each FlossTube!!! Your work is gorgeous and a real inspiration!
Thank You Kathryn!
“I didn’t do all the backstitching that she had designed” Brenda… I think you just broke my heart!!!! 😂 of course, all the backstitching needs to be done. Yes, I am watching the older videos as I have fallen this far behind with Flosstube. Eek! So wonderful of you to keep me company today. I am enjoying it so much. ❤
Hi Laura!!! I am thrilled that I got to keep you company! And the best thing about flosstubes is that they are infinitely patient in waiting their turn to visit. I laughed out loud about the backstitching!! So sorry I broke your heart!!!!! LOL I think of you all the time when I am backstitching :) The Olympics are in three months!!!!!
Hi! I am from Spain and I am stitching this doll house while I am Watching your video. What a coincidence!!! 😂
Hello! That is so funny!!! Such a small world! I love the pattern and I am so glad I found it! Do you know what year and/or month the magazine was published?
Oh my goodness, Sleeping Princess is beautiful!!!!
Thank You Char!
I was a member of EGA here on Long Island m, NY. We met in Manhasset, Nassau County, NY at a large church. Sadly lots of our members are gone. No more chapter in Nassau County, NY. I learned so much from them. I
Loved them.
Me too!!! EGA widened my horizons by so much, and I had the opportunity to learn from so many fabulous teachers :)
I love the Pixie Lane! It reminds me of your wee village in your yard.
Thank You Peggy! It does me too!!!
Thank you for your video. Lovely stitching, as always. Great finishes! You got lots done! Thanks for the tour of your room. Take care and happy stitching!
Thank You Christine! :)
Your work is just gorgeous. I'm amazed by all the projects you get done. I recently found your youtube channel (a few months ago) and I of course subscribed and now I am binge watching all your videos from the start to present time, I have enjoyed them. I use to cross stitch many years ago back in the 80's & 90's then it got pushed to the side. I am getting back into cross stitch and I'm loving it more now than back then probably because of the fabrics and patterns options and the ability connect with other cross stitchers thanks to the Internet, Youbtube, Instagram & other social media. Keep up all that beautiful cross stitching you do and the wonderful content you provide on your channel. Thank You!🪡🙂
Thank You Donna!! I so agree! The internet has made it all so much better :)
Brenda, I always love watching your Flosstubes. I don't know how you accomplish so much! And, you stitch so many different types of designs. I did order, based on your recommendation, a few charts from My Bobbin!
Thank You Tammy! So happy to enable :)
I have The Scottish Door kit by Riolis too. My youngest daughter gifted it to me for Christmas last year since I have two Scotties just those colors. You work on it is beautiful. You are going to be very busy with all those full coverage projects! Loved seeing all your beautiful stitching!
Thank You!!!
All your working amazing. I enjoyed seeing all you are stitching on, 😊too.
Thank You!!!
Drawers look nice in brown. Looks like wood.
I love your bunnies piece.
Thank You!!! I think so too :)
Hi Brenda your finishes are gorgeous,great WIPS,I too am stitching the rainbow block it is actually my comfort piece,enjoyed your video,Thankyou for sharing 🇳🇿🪡❤️
Thank You Donna! Ohhhh, I am loving working on that one :)
I just wanted to tell you how much I enjoy your channel. You stitch such a variety of things which is what I do also. I was especially happy to see your Soda Stitch, Sky Blue Street. I hadn’t seen that one done anywhere else and I’ve started it recently and was thrilled to see it completed! I just love all the things but am a bit eclectic and a big squirrel. Thank you for sharing with us. Hugs and blessings.
Thank You!! I'm so happy you are also stitching Sky Blue Street! I loved working on that one :)
Happy to see all your fabulous progress and yea, congrats on your finishes❤😊
Thank You Gracie!!
Absolutely beautiful projects!! ❤❤
Thank You Stacy!!
🌻🌻 I think the cat looks black as is, so I wouldn't frog it.
Lovely stitching! Congrats on the house! That's very exciting!
Thank You!!!
Thank you fir saying you got your browns backwards. I did that on a little bunny project too this summer. Also on a project with trees i kept stitching the wrong shade and had to frog alot twice. It mattered because the fir trees in the background wouldn't have looked good unless I fixed it. As to you Sewing Room by Lil Deb Designs; i personally think the drawers look better in brown (like the cubbies in your room!).
Happy Stitching. All of your fabulous projects and stitchwork encourage and motivate me. Thank you. Excited to go watch you stitch room tour!!
Thank You Kristina!! I love it when I can make a mistake work instead of having to rip it out. But sometimes you just have to rip it out :)
Brenda I love all your WIP's and the Lost no more is absolutely stunning. I did send you finish to your email address. Hope you like it. In the meantime Happy Stitching and be safe and kind. God bless
Pat
Thank You Pat!
So many beautiful projects. I love the one with Jesus. I need to see if I can find that one. ❤
Thank You!!!
❤. Just lovely finishes and stitching!
Thank You!!!
I found the birdhouse pattern on 123Stitch, it's out of stock so when I get it I will join you with your SAL. Just discovered your floss tube, adding you as one of my favs to watch.
Thank You Carol! Yay! another stitcher joining us on the Birdhouse piece :)
Your stitching is beautiful!
Thank You Denise!
First, I'm watching this video to catch up on your finishes 😍 oh, Girlfriend!
Next, your craft room tour😃
Thank You!!
I am so late in watching this but your work is always amazing! I haven’t finished the Sue Hillis Stitch Con piece but I love your idea of putting it on a project bag. My friend and I are attending Stitch West next Spring and we’re looking forward to stopping at your LNS and of course Shepherds Bush.
Thank You Linda!! So glad you are coming in the Spring! It will be fabulous :)
I really like cosmos too. They are silkier than Dmc
I think so too!!!
❤❤❤ So good to see you! I love all of your finishes - goes without saying. I think I would like to try cosmo if you liked it that much. Lost No More looks so divine! It is very motivating, I should pull mine out. I got very frustrated in the tree. I so wish I was able to go to Stitch West this year, but it was not in the cards for me. I will definitely try to register for next year whenever it opens! I would love to join you all for the birdhouse stitch! It is adorbs!!!! Such a great idea for stitching throughout the year. So much fun stuff, you get my stitchy bug going!
Hi Jamie!!!!! So sorry you couldn't make it to StitchWest, we missed you! But looking forward to next year :) And so happy you are joining us for the Birdhouses!! Yay!!!!!
Brenda, your videos always bring me joy and lots of ideas. The Summer Schoolhouse pillows are amazing! Happy Stitching.
Thank You Lori!! :)
Wow! Lost no more is so beautiful! It’s stunning really. I am so inspired with all of your stitching that you showed. So very many pretty patterns. I may jump on the band wagon on the stitch with the birdhouses you are starting in October.
Thank You Cheryl! Yay, yes please join us!
Lost No More is a showstopper and gives me goose bumps. Amen
Thank You Nancy :)
Wow. So much progress and so many finishes. I aim for two finishes each flosstube but mine are smalls. Your daughter has found the perfect gift to give you…perfect.
Thank You! 2 finishes per video is amazing!!!!!
Oh you are sooooo close on lost no more. Beautiful piece. I am so happy for you. Thanks for sharing so many beautiful stitches with us.
Thank You Jacqueline!
You really got a lot of stitching done! It is all so beautiful! I really enjoyed watching!! Happy stitching!!❤
Thank You Joyce!
How lovely, your new Stitch-West project! It's in my stash as well and I'd love to join you guys :) It's also available as PDF on the designer's website, for anyone who cannot find a hard copy!
Thank You for the tip!!! And so glad you will be joining us!
Beautiful work on everything, I really enjoyed seeing all your projects!!
Thank You!!!
Мы с Вами живём в разных странах,на разных континентах. Но так приятно видеть, сколько общего у вышивальщиц! Прекрасные работы, спасибо за видео))
Thank You Olga!!! I sooo agree :) We live so far apart, but we can still share our love of cross stitch with each other :) Amazing!
What a super video. Beautiful finishes as always. Love seeing what you are working on. Great haul. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Jo Marie!!! Thank You!
You do such beautiful work! And you stitch SO fast!! Impressive as well as inspiring! BYW, my neighbors are originally from Utah, and they have told us about Bear Lake. I would love to see it one of these days. See you next time! ❤
Thank You Becky! Wow, what a small world!!! Bear Lake is just beautiful, I hope you can visit one day :)
I'm doing the StitchWest SAL, and I'm planning on doing the border first too. I was so proud of my idea, but it looks like GMTA! Love your finishes. (and the near finish on "Lost No More". I remember when you didn't have any of the background done at all!)
LOL, great minds think alike!!! Yes, it seems like Lost No More has been a long time in the making :)
Brenda..always look forward to your videos! You certainly accomplish more than I do! I am wondering what fabric count you plan on using for the new SAL, the Jardin Prive’ birdhouse piece? TIA…happy stitching!
Thank You Marlene! I finally decided to stitch it on 46 ct :)
Oh my goodness Brenda! Lost No More is absolutely stunning. You are almost finished, keep going. Push to that finish line.
Thank You!!! I finished it finally, and just love it. I am going to miss working on it :)
Loved the time with you! Sleeping Princess is really beautiful! My Artisan stand arrived! I had my daughter go over and watch your Flosstube explaining it, and hers is on order (an early Christmas / birthday gift from Mom!) Come back soon!!
Thank You Desiree!! Yay!!! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do mine :)
Your work gets me every time. It is so beautiful. I loved your craft room tour also.
Thank You Anne!
You will have to hang Lost No More behind you when it's finished. It's so beautiful! I'm working on the Sewing room pattern, and hoping to finish it this month. I'm always inspired when I watch your channel. Thank you.
Thank You Kathy! Yes, you are right!! Cheering you on for a finish on Sewing Room!!! :)
Hey Brenda! Lovely to see you again! Always a joy to spend some virtual time with you :) I just wanted to mention that Jardin Prive also have a website, where you can buy their patterns - at least it works here in Denmark, maybe it's different in the states :) Best wishes!
Thank You!!! That is a great tip!!
Such beautiful finishes! You have been stitching a lot since the last video. It's always fun to see your progress. Lost No More is so pretty. A finish is soooo close! I'm starting the birdhouse SAL, too, but I may start at the left with January. You've got some pretty, new charts. Love that they remind you of places you love. ❤
Thank You Judy! Yay, so glad you are joining us! I have a few friends that are going to start with January as well :)
I love charts that remind me of lovely memories :)
Love your stitching. Thanks for sharing your wonderful talent.
Thank You Linda!! And you are very welcome :)
Such beautiful pieces. Thank you for sharing. Have a blessed week and happy stitching. Lucinda
Thank You Lucinda!
Lovely finished and progress. Love seeing your stitching!
Thank You Gene!
I love watching your videos! You do the best projects!
Thank You Diane!
Hi Brenda:Another fabulous video! I don’t comment often but I do watch and. “like” all your videos. I love so many of your projects. Can you tell me, please, if the Primavera in Citta chart is in color or black and white? Thank you!
Thank You Melanie!!! I purchased the .pdf version of Primavera in Citta and it is in color :)
Always enjoy my visit !
Thanks, Kim ☀️
Thank You Kim!
Please tell me what is the name of the tags you have on your project bags. I remember you got them from Amazon but I can’t seem to find that small size. Thank you for sharing your time and talent. Your stitching is stunning. Love your videos.
Thank You!!! The name of the product on Amazon is: "CDM Supply Flex Tag, 50 Pack, Clear Flexible Key Tags, Reusable Key Labels, Ultra Thin Identifiers for Keys, Luggage, Inventory, Merchandise Labeling Tagging"
And the link is a.co/d/alY86BQ
@@Handworkmaniac thank you so much.
Hi Brenda: I always enjoy your videos; the projects you choose to work on are all so beautiful! After seeing your progress on the Sunnyside Sampler, I had to go out and buy it (and all the silks!) from my ONS! Can hardly wait to start it! Re: the Spanish magazine you showed at the end of your video…are those charts in color blocks, color with symbols, or black and white? Thank you, and I look forward to your next video.
Thank You Melanie! And I hope you enjoy Sunnyside as much as I did :) If I am remembering correctly the dollhouse pattern from the Spanish Magazine was color blocks with symbols. But I will check for sure when I get home :)
Lost no more I think is my favorite, so gorgeous. All of your projects are just great
Thank You!
Lost No More is absolutely beautiful!
Thank You Barbara!
On a previous video you showed Zimmerman covered and I loved it and just bought the pattern. Can you share your fabric count and color. Thank you for sharing your stitching.
Hi Vicki! I am stitching my Zimmerman Coverlet on 56 ct antique white linen :) But it would be beautiful on any white fabric :)
Just a thought, I think you have the metal basket , backwards
Oh my goodness, thank you!
Lost no more is absolutely gorgeous!
Thank You Kimber!
I love that brightneedle relax stitch so much! I want to stitch it for my sister, but I can't seem to find it anywhere? 🤔
It is a lovely piece, but is so old it is probably out of print. You can call around to cross stitch stores to see if they have it, or check the secondary market online :)
Hello
The christ is incredible❤❤
I always admire your projects, especially Serenity Bay. Would you mind sharing which colour dinky dyes you used for the water. I want to do something similar for By the Bays Tidal River 3 but I haven’t found a good substitute yet.
Thank You!! I am using Dinky Dyes "Gum Leaves" and Dinky Dyes "Ocean Pines" for the water on my Serenity Harbor piece :) Good luck! Finding just the right color is important! :)
@@Handworkmaniac thank you so much 😊
All your work is amazing! 😍 How on earth do you get SO much stitching accomplished?
Thank You Lizzy!!! LOL, my husband would say I don't do anything else when I get home from work :)
Hi Brenda! Thank you for sharing all your wonderful projects with us!!
I do have a question for you about Haberdashery Shop, how do you plan to do the backstitch? I am a newer stitcher, but I thought if you are working 1 over 1 on 25 ct that backstitch with 1 thread will not work out. I would really love to try to stitch a SodaStitch pop up store 1 over 1 on 25 ct but I was intimidated by the backstitch not looking right. Any tips or pointers you could share would be greatly appreciated!!!
Blessings!
Hello!!! I have done several projects with lots of backstitch, 1 over 1. And although the backstitch is a little thicker than it would normally be, I thought they all turned out beautifully. I will try and get some of the backstitching done on Haberdashery before my next video so you can see how it will look :)
@@Handworkmaniac thank you so much for reply!! That would be so awesome and I would love to see it!! 💛💛
Seus bordados são fantásticos.
Thank You Sergio!
Hi there. Lost no more is so beautiful. You mentioned that you only work on it in Sunday’s. How many hours? Also I am new to cross stitch how do you stitch with one thread. Thank you
Thank You Gladys! On Sundays I usually get somewhere between 2 and 4 hours of stitching in :) If you do a search on CZcams for "cross stitch with 1 thread" you should be able to find several tutorials about it. FlossTubers are so great about sharing their knowledge and making fabulous tutorials :)
Hi, I love everything! I’m wondering if you’d be willing to sell the Relax by Brightneedle. I want to make it for my daughter who has epilepsy and just diagnosed with bipolar and she’s just took up embroidery and I think it’d be cute for her. Thank you! ❤
Thank You Dawn! Ohhhh, I'm so sorry to hear about your daughter, that would be so challenging. I need to keep the pattern, as my daughters and daughter-in-laws want to stitch it. So sorry!
So close to a finish. Would you show all your Jesus patterns.
Thank You Kelly! That is a great idea! I am thinking about doing a Kit Parade for my FlossTube-iversary this month :)
Is there information available on the lady her finished some of your projects for you? You mentioned her name but how do we get in touch with her, Thans you!
Hi Diane! Yes! her name is Jan Calvert and you can contact her through Instragram: @FinishTheStitch
I have an AuryTM pattern with Cosmo floss. It was really hard to find. Where do you get yours?
Hi Beth! Quilt stores quite often carry it, and Riverview Stitching in Monroe, MI carries it. I have also seen it on 123Stitch.com.
Hi, I am novice in cross stitch, I don't understand why you leave several threads on the project.
You don't get tangle ? How do you proceed ?
Hello! So glad you are cross stitching, and welcome! That way of stitching is called the "parking method" and I usually only use it on a complicated full coverage piece with many many colors. You choose a color and stitch all the stitches of that color in a 10 x 10 block and then you "park" that thread in the next place it will be used in the next 10 x 10 block. There are many different ways to "park" and many different methods. If you do a search for "parking method" you will find several to watch :)
@@Handworkmaniac Thank you... I will search on Internet to see that. THanks for your answer. And good stitching 🌹
