Always a pleasure spending time with the two of you & your beautiful stitching! Looking forward to Justine's WIP parade. Shelley, your WIPs are stunning. Keep it coming, ladies!
Hello from Ontario, Canada! Ah yes, can we talk cold?! I hear ya! Although we are getting out of the negatives, it's still winter in Canada & you just never know whatcha get! Beautiful stitching & as always, I enjoy your Flosstube.....thank you !!!! You two put such natural fun into it!
I’m so glad to see you girls! Y’all make me laugh and I so enjoy your floss tube! My husband passed away Feb. 1. And I’m just getting to watch you ladies and I needed this floss tube from you ladies! Thank you so much for being real and amazing! Have a great week! Thank you for the laughs! So needed it! ❤
I love seeing a WIP parade so this was so much fun in addition to all of the other projects that the two of you shared. Such beautiful stitching and lots of laughs! Thanks for sharing…………
Oh my goodness! I love your flosstube! You play off each other so well, and I find myself laughing along with you. We live in MN, too. I keep telling my husband we need to take a “ road trip” from our home to your shop. He heard your floss tube today and was smiling along with my laughter, so I may just convince him to hop in the car with me. The barn and the toaster stories were classic! Thank you for the laughter and your sharing. Jan Hartley
Love you girls!!! OMG!! You gals crack me up with your cute banter and hilarious story’s!!! I laughter so hard I had tears running down my cheeks listening to the barn and toaster story’s!!! 🤣🤣 Justine your Shine On is gorgeous!!!! Both of your finishes and WIPS are stunning!!! Shelly I loved, loved your wip parade. Looking forward to Justine’s!! Stay warm. Hugs, Lynn
Welcome back to my favorite Floss Tubers! I look forward to watching your videos but they are over way too fast. I have binge watched them at least three times. I loved your stories about the barn and the toaster! I’m still chuckling about them! Have a great week. Hope to see you sooner than three weeks !
OMG you guys are too much! I so enjoy your stories and the laughter always look forward to your videos and of course the stitching. Great choices and finishes. Interesting... seeing the patterns that are retired..hard to find ones. Keep on stitching and Don't burn the toast! Lol
Happy belated birthday Justine. Happy birthday Shelley. I absolutely love watching your videos. I look forward to videos. Justine thank you for your great customer service. Happy stitching ladies.
You guys always make me laugh. I knew you would tell the toaster story when you started laughing. Oh how I wish I lived closer. Can't wait to see Justines WIP parade!
Great video! Loved the toaster story! It was hilarious! Justine the jingle all the way is little house needleworks. I used to work at our LNS and she never put on the back who the designer was, i got pretty good over the years. I look forward to your videos, thanks for sharing your love of needlework!
I am a newer subscriber- I so enjoy the banter between the two of you- I watched this one twice just so I could hear the toaster story again- so so hysterical - and kudos to the pranksters at your job. Ya gotta love ‘em!
So fun to watch your channel, and listen to the stories! Shelly your projects are fabulous, love them all. I’m also a fan of red and all the birds. Hope to get to 24 hours sometime this year, fingers crossed!
Just love your videos. I always get a good laugh. You can tell you are best friends. I wish I lived closer to your shop, but I could never take that weather. I live in New Orleans and at Christmas we had a low of 25 and a high of 35 and I hated it. I stayed wrapped up in my chair stitching. We may have one freeze a year. Some years we never get to freezing which is just fine with me. Todays high will be around 70, my kind of weather. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for another great video, girls. It is always so much fun to see the interactions between you two. Your projects are wonderful. You have both made great progress on your projects. Happy stitching. Best, K
Just discovered your channel from a shout out on Sew n' Sew's channel! So glad I did, you two are hilarious and have lovely stitching! Thank you for the toaster story, it reminded me of a similar trick my dad played on me. I was home from college one summer, and was refilling ice cube trays with hot water. Mom asked me why, and I said Dad ( our high school's science teacher) had told me that the shock of the hot water makes it freeze faster. My mom looked at Dad who burst out laughing and confessed he had said it as a joke... when I was 8! I'd been making ice that way for 12+ years! 🤦
I'm getting caught up on flosstubes and finally was able to watch this one today. I'm glad you liked your note Justine and Shelly, you are the best too, I just didn't have access to your planner lol!! Can't wait to see you ladies again in April 🥰
I'm late, I'm late for a very important date, oh my loved the parade! You both are the best🤣🤣 so enjoy to see you and hear your stories! Thank you for shout outs about other utube stitchers, I always check them out. See you in 3 weeks maybe, stay well💖💕💖
I want sure exactly how much liqueur you two had in your coffee, but you both had me laughing so hard! Gosh, I haven't laughed like that in so long over the toaster story. The stitching stuff was great but oh what fun to just be with you!!
I would watch you two if you were on EVERY day of the week! Omg such funny stories today… Justine, when Shelly told the barn story I was picturing the I Love Lucy Show when she got locked in the freezer and her eyelashes were huge icicles! And the toaster story… I was laughing so hard I was crying! That would be me… believing the toaster was voice activated. I am a rule follower. Here’s a story from me. When my husband and I were first dating (over 40 years ago) I lived in a very rural area. When he would be driving me home after a date we would pass a farm with a chicken coop and the lights would always be on in the chicken coop no matter how late it was. I mentioned to him how weird it was that they never turned the lights off. He said to me, “Didn’t you know that’s how they got the name chickens? They are afraid of the dark”! Well didn’t I go to work the next day and tell people all about how chickens got their name and you can imagine the teasing I was victim to! We all need to be able to laugh at ourselves. Thanks for the beautiful wip parade Shelly. Looking forward to yours too Justine.
“And to all a good night” BBD .... love that chart and would love to stitch it 😻. Lots of Just Gorgeous stitching and finishing !! How does one get locked in a barn?? Is there only one door?!! 😹. The toaster story is a classic and never gets old and Justins’s laughing makes it that much funnier!!
Ladies I found you recently and have watched all your videos in the last 3 weeks....So...I likely remember more of what you have said than you do :). I so appreciate the WIP parade Shelly, because for the last 10 episodes I have been wondering what happened to Halloween Quaker and Ink Circles Roses. Can't believe how vested I am in you finishing. Ha! vicarious satisfaction. My one observation after watching your WIPs that you probably realize, is that with the exception of 2 or 3, they are all very involved pieces. You need the satisfaction of some quick finishes I think to keep your own mood light. Thanks for sharing your toaster and barn moments. I feel like I have found my people! Justine, I know in advance that your WIP parade is going to give me hives or a panic attack or both :). Only because it will make me own up to mine!
Oh my word the barn story. I can imagine you looking around saying ohh 😮 and the toaster story I hate to admit but I probably would have done the same thing.
Well if that wasn't ever a 'rip-snorting', 'bagel-down' kind of video!! Love spending time with you girls. So enjoy seeing the beautiful designs you both choose to stitch and it's so refreshing to be able to witness your sincere friendship with one another.
I don't think I've ever laughed so hard while watching a flosstube 😂 😂! Between Shelly's dry wit and Justine's infectious laugh, I felt like I was at a comedy club for stitchers. I'm still trying to decide if getting locked in the barn was more hysterical than the toaster story was. (Shelly, I would have totally been talking to that stupid toaster too. And Justine, I've had my own funny stories of locking myself out of the house and getting stuck on the back porch for an hour or 2 until I got rescued.) I'm pretty far from Minnesota, but if I ever get out that way, I want to make sure I can visit your shop and get a seat in the live studio audience for one of your flosstube tapings! It's got to be even funnier in person! Shelly, your wips are just beautiful! I love everything you're working on. I've got a few of those patterns too, and you are inspiring me to pull them out sooner rather than later. Can you tell me the designer of Rose Quaker? Hope you have success finding a good color conversion for the sampler you're stitching for your dad! Can't wait to see your wip parade, Justine! Be well and keep warm ladies!
The designer for Rose Quaker is Stickideen von der Wiehenburg. Justine has these in her shop, you can find contact details in the drop down comments. Thanks so much for all of your lovely comments!
First time to find your flosstube and I can't quit laughing!!! I am enjoying you all so much. I have subscribed and liked! Would love to visit your shop but I live in Katy, Texas, which is outside of Houston. P.S. your stitching is beautiful!
I laughed out loud, and no one was home!! I'm always excited to see what your both are stitching. Loved, loved the WIP parade to see your progress. I just started stitching again in the last 6 months so I've been taking many notes😊 from many floss tubers! Loved the toaster story, still giggling! And the latch story! Thanks for sharing!
I live north of the cities and was out geocaching Sunday. I even thought, 'man it is warm out'. Checked the temp and it was 28! So yes, I understand what you mean. I am stitching 10,000 Lakes every Monday this year. I figured out if I stitch 340 stitches per Monday, it will be done at the end of the year
I also thought the What Remains is Love was too pink, so I used GAST Old Red Paint and WDW Baked Apple. I really love the dark red tones. Great program as always.
I had a good chuckle over the toaster story and the barn story. You two do not live dull lives. You both have such beautiful stitching. Loved the WIP parade.
Ok ladies...I have a tendency to do rando things that others find questionable. When I was in high school (a lllooonnnngggg time ago), and did something a little less than academic, my friends would say "my name is Jenni and my favorite color is clear!" (Were they really my friends??🤔😁). Now, when I do or say something a little less than average thinking ability, my 22 year old son points at me, looks at has dad and says, "Masters degree Dad, Masters degree"...and I BIRTHED him!!!! So, we can all just own that our Superpower is the ability to laugh at ourselves with others and move on! Great content as always. Happy stitching!!
Thanks for the GREAT laughs ladies! The toaster story was hysterical and Justine locking herself in the barn, oh my! Many years ago my brother shut the chicken house door before he left for school, not knowing that my mom was in there. This was before cell phones and she was locked in there for the entire morning. Finally a neighbor heard her calling for help and let her out! And in defense of Shelley, I walked into a pitch dark bathroom at Culver's. So used to motion sensor lights I started waving my arms all around trying to get the light to come on. Then it dawned on me to feel around for the switch which was on the wall! LOL Your stitching was great as always. Love you guys!
So glad I turned the bell 🛎 on! Justine your Peace is gorgeous! Shelley the carolers white faces wk when u show the whole piece. Shout out to awesome lifesaving BILS! Wow to your whip parade, the autumn stitch Love the colors!
I was giggling with the BARN and TOASTER oven stories that I wasn't able to continue stitching - ohmygoodness 🤣thank you for sharing. Trust me, we ALL have a Barn and Toaster stories. A famous story in our family is an uncle was sent to the grocery store to buy grapes and he came back with grapefruit. Maybe not as funny, but we burst in laughter every single time. Simply Legendary. Love your Flosstube. ✨
Shelly, what fabric are you stitching Winter Rose Manor on? It’s beautiful!!! And the toaster study had me rolling!!! 😂😂😂 Love watching you both! Always a fun time.
Hi!! I am stitching WRM on 36ct Brenda's Brew by R&R. That is the called-for that is listed on my pattern. I feel like I heard that she made a change to the called for fabric at some point, but that's what mine called for. (I also could have dreamt that!) I love it. Mine seems darker than a lot of them that I have seen. Maybe just a weird dye batch from R&R. Justine probably still has some of this fabric left, if you wish to contact her.
I so wished I lived closer to join you all at 24 hrs. The toaster story was so funny. I so enjoy you two and your flosstubes videos. You make me live and make my day.
Oh my gosh!! You never fail to make me laugh !! The toaster joke was classic! My cat fell off my lap because I was laughing so loud!! And being " locked" in the barn was right up there with the toaster. Visions of Lucy and Ethel. 🥰🥰
You had me laughing so hard I had to put my stitching down. 😂. I really look forward to your videos. I used to shop at Welcome Stitchery in Crystal Lake all the time. I wish you were closer.
It is 2:36 a.m. in the morning, I’m laughing my you know what off at the toaster story. How am I supposed to go to bed now?? Thx for sharing the story. Finishes are gorgeous. I really need sleep so I’ll have to finish watching tomorrow!!! Love a good WIP parade. Just bookmarked the shop, I’m going shopping right now. 😅
You two make me laugh so much!!! 😂 Love your videos. I have briefly experienced North Dakota winter when I was younger. I don’t know how you do it. Stay safe and warm.
Thanks for another inspiring and hilarious video! The toaster story is the funniest thing I've heard in quite a long time! I really enjoyed the WIP parade.
Good to see you both back 😀 love ❤️ your needle work parade’s 😊Thank You both for being such great friends and team work together 🙏 You ladies are so funny 😂 🥂🍾✌️
Well first off….. Shelly….you had me laughing so hard I almost wet my seat. That toaster story was HILARIOUS!!!!!!! You 2 are such a joy to watch. I hate waiting 3 weeks to see you again. You bring such joy to everyone.. I love the way you have fun with each other. Have a wonderful couple of weeks!!!! ps….I live in MD and we haven’t seen a flake of snow. If you have any could you send it our way. 😂😂😂😂
I can't stitch while I watch you two. I just giggle. The barn story from Justine was funny. The toaster story from Shelly was hilarious! Shelly, you and I share the same birth date, Feb 15. Loved all the wips that Shelly shared. Normally I start and rarely finish a project but this year I am working on a piece until it is done and then move on to the next oldest. Looking forward to Justine's wips in the next video. Take care girls.
Good to see you ladies! I wish I could have made it down there for the Jan 24 hours! I don't think I will make April either, but will keep trying as you do them. Shelly, I've heard of others getting caught by the toaster trick I'm sure it wasn't so funny at the time, but glad you can laugh about it anyway. Justine, I once locked myself in a bathroom with an old sticky door... couldn't figure out the silly mechanism for unlocking (it wasn't a typical lock). Imagine my panic though.... the homeowner (my sister-in-law) finally came by because she needed to use the facilities and talked me out of my predicament through the locked door. We both had a good laugh. In any case, I hope to see you two sometime soon, but it will likely be may or June as I am face down into tax documents for a few months now. Cheers!
Great video! Great things you’re stitching! Shelly did you say you work in Mankato? Spelling? Isn’t that where Maud Hart Lovelace lived, who wrote Betsy-Tacy books? My daughter and I love those. Do you like them? I wish those illustrations done by Lois Lenski, were in cross stitch! 🌲🌲⭐️⭐️⭐️
