I loved hanging out with y’all today. We have been iced in for a week here in North Alabama!!

Love this video! I love your blue pillow and your vintage basket for all of your little pillows and handmade things. Such a great idea for your new room too. I can’t wait to see the tour when you are done. So cold here too with snow. I get so many great ideas watching your videos.

I love bunnies!!

Thanks for the good ideas! Also thanks for telling us about the Big Book of Embroidery on Amazon! I look forward to watching more. Margie \TN

I love your bag. I’m excited for the pin pillow sewcial, I really don’t have time for big projects right now or really the drive and I love having cute little things around.

Everything is SO cute!! Of course I went on Amazon and ordered some embroidery books! I was giggling with you, talking about switching around rooms! Glad it was easy convincing your hubby! ☺️ Sounds like a fun plan! Can't wait to see it!! 🩷 Hiii sweet Evie!! 😻

Those pin pillows are so pretty😊

Oh my goodness! I love that daisy pillow. You should make me a sweater out of that. 😆. I’ve been seeing so many cute crocheted sweaters. I love Heathers quilt-great job! Evelyn is so precious. I have that pin pals book-I need to get it out and look at it. Maybe even make something. 😊. Good to see you ladies.❤

Love all the cute projects.Evelyn is adorable.Have a great 2weeks We have around a foot of snow here in Northern Illinois 🥰🥰

Awesome video! I love the pin pillow Sewcial and will be joining the fun. I am going to try your method for sewing squares together, it looks so pretty. Thanks for an enjoyable evening. Stay warm and safe. Burr it was 11 degrees here this morning.

Happy and healthy new year 🎉

Love all of your projects!! Plus I’m so excited to be the Etsy winner! I’ve emailed you 😊

I went and looked at Melissa Gilberts fabric OMG Love it so much\. I love the little pillow idea I am in.....Hi Evie

Enjoyed catching up with you both. Jeanette, I’ve been doing the same thing with finishing projects that I purchased years ago am loving seeing them finished. I did this last year and had to continue doing it this year as well. So many cute projects stuck away that have been needing my attention to make and enjoy, after all that’s what I originally bought it for. It’s a shame to just leave things stuck away in a closet that hard earned money was spent on, for me, it’s been working very nicely.

Your blue crocheted pillow with the white daisies is sooooooo pretty, Jeanette!

Love your daisy pillow. Thank you for the explanation on how you join your squares. The little pillows are too cute.

Love the new Sewcial and the Fig Tree quilts are beautiful!🤩 ❤

Precious through and through and of course, I am all in for the pin pillows! Love that fabric line so I will want it also for my bedroom. Full of ideas and inspiration, as always. Have fun with the "move" and the kitties. hugs

Loved your Daisy pillow. Love a tutorial for putting the Daisy pillow together. Switching rooms around is more of a chore than we think at first. I am sure everyone will enjoy their new space.

Great video guys love the idea of doing pin pillow sewcial. I'm joining in for sure. I love all the things you guys are showing. Thank you again for sharing. Evelyn is going to be a very crafty girl like her mom and grandma.

So much inspiration every time I watch your videos! You’re both so talented and always working on beautiful projects. Love your finishes! Janet, your craft room plan is a great one! You’ll love having your cricut out and easily accessible. I love a variety of crafts and paper is one of them, and I have a designated space for my cricut and it makes using it convenient. I’m working on my January heart challenge, and now I want to make a pin cushion for your new sewcial! I’ll have to browse my books and see what I can come up with! Have a great two weeks!

So nice to see you all again! I love the diversity of what you share and all of your projects are beautiful. I can't wait to see the tour of your new rooms, I am jealous! The new Sewcial sounds like fun, I have lots of fabric that will be perfect for pin pillows. Count me in!

Hi ladies! What a nice surprise!! Heather your quilt top is gorgeous❤❤ Jeanette all of your finishes are inspiring❤ Keep warm ladies. It was 3 degrees here today. I'm ready for spring!

Great video! Enjoy all of the different needlework projects! Hi, Evelyn! Good to see you too!

I’m in for the pin pillow sewcial, I love making little smalls!! ❤

I've never made a pin pillow before. They look so cute! I could probably hand-sew something together. I think I will give it a good try. 🤞 Absolutely love your crocheted daisy pillow! That blue is just perfect for it.

I have just found your channel and I'm so excited. I'm "old school" so I don't "starch" and I don't "block" especially acrylic yarn. I think sometimes people make crafting so much WORK that it ruins the fun of crafting. Nothing needs to be perfect as handmade is the best made because it's made with LOVE. Anyway, I agree with you about blocking. Love the way you join your blocks.

That will be perfect for Evie's ballet slippers.

Вы большая мастерица,у вас очень красивая подушечка с цветочками получилась.Браво

I really like your quilt and small pillows, ladies. I just discovered Joanna Figueroa a few months ago and promptly ordered her Christmas Figs book. I love her choice of colors for Christmas. Jeannette, love that sweater! Did you knit it? I also love both of your eyeglass frames as I'm in the market for new glasses. Yes, a lot of love this and love that today, lol. Evvie is so cute and so well behaved. Lovely video today.

I’m interested in joining you girls with sewcial,I love making little pin pillows

Red Cross Stitcher has a recent tutorial for a bag to hold your crochet needles. 😊

So good to see you girls today.

I love your videos! Those quilt tops you both made are so pretty! I bought as much of the Christmas Stitched fabric as I could afford because I love it so much! I did the same with All Hallow's Eve. (I believe that was the name) Fig Tree is a favorite! Your daisy crocheted pillow is so cute! Every time I see anything you too crochet, I just can't understand why I could never conquer it! Three people have tried to teach me! I bought "Crochet for Dummies". Still can't! I quilt, sew clothing, embroider, cross stitch & have several other crafts but not crochet!😭 Enough of my whining! Your little pin pillows are adorable! You both inspire me each time I see your videos! Heather, even though it's so cold there you still have hummingbirds. Yours must be a lot hardier than our Tennessee birds! Ours leave for the winter. Anyway LOVE you girls & Evelyn is a doll!

The pillow is so pretty! I’ve crocheted for years but have never joined squares with your method. I’d love a how to video, I guess I’m a ‘see it-do it’ kind of learner. The quilts you both shared are so pretty! Stay warm!

I’ve been doing the same, Janet…..pulling out older projects and finishing them. They do take up space and I’m tired of them hanging around. No reason not to finish them! Beautiful projects as always, girls!

Love your little pillows and those fabrics are beautiful!

Love your Daisy pillow! So happy to see you girls tonite.we are getting a ton of snow and it’s 5 degrees here.I’m getting ready to cross stitch

Definitely need a demo for sewing together your daisy pillow…love that look

You are sewing a lot of beautiful things. For me, doing crochet is more relaxing than sewing. I have a question : What do you think about starting many projects in cross stitch in the same time ? I see many people doing that. Personnaly I start another project when first is finished. Maybe I will try to start many projects too.

I love the lettering on the merry Christmas chart.

Jeanette, I got my merry Christmas done. It took me lo n ger than I thought. And I made some mistakes but my daughter loves it anyway

Happy new year ladies !🎉 your quilts look so good and all the pillows are adorable 😊

I definitely want to make a pin cushion or too 🙂 loved all your projects. Hope to see a tour of your new space when finished. Now heading over to see this fabric from Melissa Gilbert lol.

Love all of your projects! Jeanette, what color is your nail polish?

Another inspiring video! I’m making a granny square blanket too since I saw your start before Christmas. I’m really enjoying the process and I think I have completed about 40 squares so far, so hope I can figure out the join you recommend - it’s been years since I’ve made one. Have you tried the cotton stuffing for your little pillows? I ordered a couple bags from FQS and they make very firm dense pillows if you like that. I do lots of wool appliqué and make smalls and now it’s my preferred method - however if it’s for a pincushion, your pins are a bit hard to get in and out, but mine are for bowl fillers. Evelyn is such a sweet little girl- love her rosy cheeks. Have a great week and thank you always for sharing your time and talents! ❤🙂

I love your Daisy pillow & I'm looking forward to watching your tutorial on sewing them together. Do you know which CC pattern you have used? There is a ton of them & some sound complicated...probably just me! It is snowing in my corner of TN & temp going down to 0 tonight, we're not use to that here. Stay warm!

Real time temp on this monday morning at 10:30am is -3 windchill feels like -17...poor doggo has to go potty in intervals

Another craft room sound awesome. I have a question on cleaning if you don’t mind. How do you clean ceramic tile to get it to shine. I moved into a home that has tile and when I moved in the tile was so sparkly and even slick I’ve never been able to get it as clean and shiny as it was that day. It makes me feel like a slob. Do you have any tips? Thank you so much!

I love your pillow! Thank you for showing us how to join the blocks! Where do you get the pattern for the Christmas tree quilt? And where on Etsy do you get the fig tree fabric? On Etsy?

Great content today. Sometimes hard to understand you because you are both speaking at the same time. Happy New Year.

Hi ladies. Do you have a pattern for that crocheted daisy block? It would be great if you could do a tutorial and make one square for us from beginning to end. I Love you both, and im glad your back. Evie is getting so grown up she is precious we love seeing her. Linda from Rhode Island

You have hummingbirds in the winter?? We are in Ohio…they migrate from here usually in late September

Love all your makes! The daisy pillow is beautiful! Love the Seasonal Patchwork Quilt - went right out and purchased the pattern…it’s not clear to me however how to access the valentine version…do you know how?
