Saltbox Stitcher [Episode 99] - " A Finish... Progress... and a Plan " 

I’m laughing so hard at “Barnacles” 😂 100% true 😂

Carol, you’re so funny! I love your floss tube. I also like you and your hubby’s banter. Thanks for sharing your lives and stitching with us.

I love your finished piece! It is beyond gorgeous! Mr. Saltbox does an excellent job editing! Kudos to Mr. Saltbox! Have a wonderful time at your retreat!

Have fun at the retreat. It's always good to be able to go home at night, and sleep in your own bed.

You and your husband are developing a quite sophisticated video! Thank you for all of your hard work!!! You are inspiring me to take out my many many patterns and choosing some that have been forgotten. Happy Stitching and enjoy your retreat!!

I have to say I love “Mr. Saltbox” and his editing. It adds so much fun to your wonderful videos.

Lots of eye candy!! Thank you, Carol! Looking forward to seeing which 8 samplers you pick. Hard decisions! Happy stitching!❤

99 bottles of beer on the wall. LOL That was too funny!! Love all your stitching and your plans.

A big thank you to your husband for doing a great job on your video's. Loved seeing all that you showed. Only problem i have with your video's is i want to buy all that you show LOL,

Thanks to you and Michael for another great video. Enjoyed it very much. Pam Miller

Wonderful patterns to choose from, all those houses!! Enjoy your retreat, happy stitching.

Thank you and your husband for another lovely video. Both of you put in a lot of work and it is a joy to watch your presentations and become inspired. Looking forward to #100.

Carol - So enjoyed your video - as always. So much fun watching! Great editing and so enjoyable! Have a great time at your retreat! ❤

Loved watching today. It made me laugh out loud.

Thank you for the time spent on filming and editing . Loved the intro. What Beautiful wips and starts. It’s inspiring!!!

I hope you have a wonderful time at retreat! Your husband does a fantastic job of editing your videos. I enjoy seeing all your beautiful projects! Thanks for sharing!

You look lovely in the red and white with the lipstick to match. I love your necklaces to. Another great video. Happy stitching 🇦🇺🌈🦋

Always always thoroughly enjoyable. Thank you

I don't post comments very often but I wanted to let you know I love your videos and you've inspired me. I used to cross stitch but other hobbies got my attention over the years. This past winter I got back into cross stitch, and only recently discovered flosstube. What fun! I've watched all your videos. I must confess to making many pattern purchases as a result! There's not a needlework shop in my town where I can see completed pieces, so thank you, I think. 😂 God bless and happy stitching.

My thanks to you and your husband for the awesome work you do for making thse delightful video podcast...congratulations on your finish Carol...loved everthing you shared...have a great time at your local retreat...best wishes and happy stitching❤❤

Oh wow! I can’t wait to see all these samplers you “plan” to stitch. They are gorgeous! Great video!

Oh my you two are great.and agree need more for that clue.. oh your finish is great! Had to laugh…my husband has had a board of maple that he’s had at least 10 yrs, isn’t a woodworker but he’s going to use it some day’. Yea when he cleans out the garage so he can get to his table saw. Lol. Everything was great,good luck choosing !

Carol, Carol, Carol…you just inspire me! Thank you for all your videos. I’m binge watching all of them again for at least the third time! Hugs from NM!

Your finish of the "Brick House Sampler" is so pretty! Enjoyed all the possibilities of samplers you will pick up and stitch on over the next two months. I know you will love adding stitches to or starting new! Hope you have a wonderful time at your retreat. Take care and happy stitching! 🧵

Was so eagerly looking forward to another one of your episodes 😊 such a highlight to my week to look forward to 🩷. You and your work are such a delight! 🌷

Thank you to both for sharing I really enjoy seeing your floss tube 😊

Love seeing your plans for your retreat projects. Also enjoy seeing all your samplers! Hi to Mr. Saltbox 😊 he does such a wonderful job on editing your floss tubes! Take care

Beautiful choices! Have fun picking your next starts.

I love how you show the name of the pattern and the designer. Very professional!!! Beautiful stitching, and on the black… gorgeous!!! Always a great video!! Have a nice two weeks!!

Your husband is so helpful with the video editing. I can't wait to see your finishes waiting to be framed.

Haha 99. no, that was the perfect hint!!! 😂😂😂 Brick house sampler is beautiful! So many beautiful samplers you are showing. I wish I stitched as fast as you. I stopped stitching when our children were growing up. Silly me, I did not come back to stitching for another 10 years after they were out of the house.

Your intro announcing the episode number makes me smile. Today was a hoot!

Thanks for the awesome video, loved seeing all the samplers you might stitch.

Love your videos! You are such an enabler but we love it!! Your husband is a hoot!

I love Mr. Saltbox's editing. Besides the project & designer pop up, I love that you begin your videos with where you live!!! Other Flosstubers will talk about how hot it is where they live & I'm like where: California, Texas, Utah??? I love it when you talk to yourself & how you don't like to be bossed. Not even by yourself! lol Your stitching is beautiful!

Love your finishes and your progress on your wips. Happy stitching!

I always look forward to seeing what you've been up to and your plans. Eight starts sounds fun. I can't wait to see what you picked to do. Have a great retreat. ❤

I always have fun watching. Thanks

Thank you for another inspiring video. Have a great retreat

Carol, You are so blessed to have a 'Mr. Enabler' to do your editing. It makes such a huge difference in the experience for the viewer. I just push the start button and whatever happens, happens. I have no ability to edit. Your 'wanna starts' are just fantastic. In every video, I see samplers I have never seen before. You are such an asset to the Flosstube community. Take care. Best, K

Hi Carol! I got as far as the coffee break and had to pause to write in the comments. Your husband is brilliant with your videos. He gets better with each one! Perfection!! You my dear, are also perfection with the videos. What you show, how you talk to us and all the beautiful things you make! I watch a lot of flosstube while I stitch and you are my favorite!! Brenda and the Serial Starter is second. Love those girls too. Anyway, sorry to blather on but I just wanted to let you know you guys are awesome. Might think about adding to your title... Saltbox Stitcher and the Professor, Saltbox Stitcher and her Dude, Saltbox Stitcher and her Squeeze. 😂 Love you! ❤

I love the title and designer placement as you show the stitched you have completed. I recognize that it is extra work for your husband, and I believe it is worth the effort. Thank you for asking how we felt about this change today. I had viewed your videos as prefect and this idea is like “a cherry on top”. THANK YOU to both of you!

So many beautiful samplers to choose from!

Thanks for sharing....always amazing watching you....your husband is amazing....thanks for sharing and please take care

Love your floss tube and your stitching

Hi Carol! Love all the new starts coming! I’ve had more than a few myself 🤣. Jane P is always so tempting. I almost put her on my six new “pink” sampler starts for my 60th birthday. I’m curious to hear about the wools. Always so much beautiful stitching to enjoy!

Lotsa fun stitching ahead. Have a great retreat

OMG, my hand got tired writing notes! So many samplers I need to purchase! Have fun at your local retreat. Tell your hubby hello. He's a hoot! Thanks for the great and enabling flosstube!

Another beautiful video I look forward to watching your videos always ♥️

Carol another phenomenal episode of floss tube!! I’m smiling from start to finish Thanks for always bringing an uplifting video 🤗 I agree start what you want especially if you already have it💁‍♀️ just enjoy…I’m looking forward to seeing those completed stitches that have not been fully finished! Take good care, see ya next time🤗♥️🧵🪡

Wonderful video, Carol! I Love the extra editing to show names & designers...thanks to your sweet hubby for all his work. I nearly fell out of my chair when you talked about stalking and "Kilroy" appeared, looking over your shoulder! LOL!!! Your 8 (16) samplers for Aug-Sep was so much fun, some I've never seen before . I can't wait until #100 so I can see all your finished but unframed pieces; I am afraid to count mine! Have a wonderful time at your retreat and see you next time! xoxo

Wow did you and your husband make me laugh. Great video. As always thank you for the time you put into the video.

Well, you motivated me to get back to my Frances Eden and my Elizabeth Furniss - thank you! 😂 - Sheri

Ha!Ha! Had to laugh cause if your a stalker I am to! You could have talked all day I never get tired of seeing your projects! Have a great time next weekend. Thank you for sharing!

Enjoyed the video. You and your husband just make me laugh with the clues for the video number 😂. Anyway your projects are beautiful and good luck with all your new starts. Have fun at the retreat!!!

Love your husband’s editing and sound effects 💕🪡

Enjoyed all your wips and your new plans

This was such a great video, Carol!! You have some amazing pieces picked out to start! I did actually start Elizabeth Furniss and am loving her! Mary Carr is really singing to me as well! I could very easily and happily stitch all the charts you showed!!! It is so nice of your husband to put in the names of the chart but I had no idea how much time it takes so don't worry about it. Have an amazing time at your retreat! Thanks as always and happy stitching!

Beautiful sampler choices Carol! I stitched and framed Amy Eliza Herbert many years ago. My pattern was hand drawn on cardstock. I don’t remember having any problems with the pattern. It’s my fav to date. Your Brick House Sampler is beautiful!

Thanks for another great video Have a great week 🥰

Thanks for another very entertaining video! Love ya!

You cutie pies - made my day!

Another fantastic video, never long enough. Love how involved and supportive your husband is, he does a great job of editing your videos, fantastic team!! I always rewatch your videos as I need to make my shopping lists, pen and paper in hand. If that makes me your stalker then so be it. Keep the great videos coming 😊

Another enjoyable time with you and your hubby. Thankyou both for all the hard work. Getting everything out and prepped is a huge job in itself. It is appreciated by myself and so many others. We all have our favorites and probably many of us feel like stalkers 😂 as we anxiously await each new posting. There are many I watch more than once. Have fun at your retreat!! See ya next post. ❤ya, Donna

All of your wips are so beautiful

I love your videos and your stitching so much!

Such a Joy! Thank You Both

Truly appreciate the upgrades with the video editing!! You are quite the team!! Another awesome video!! Thank you!!

Hey girl! I look forward to seeing your progress on Frances and Amy. I think Tin Roof is the perfect fabric color of Amy.

I so enjoy your videos. Thank you for sharing your talents! And I want to tell you how much I love your 5 for 5. I used it in Mania May, and have now adopted it as my own!! I feel so accomplished!! Thank you!! PS- you and your husband are so cute!! I love he is so supportive and he does a wonderful job editing and putting in the extra info!

Omg I love the apple butter linen ❤❤❤

Enjoyed your vast array of “8” projects! 😉😆 I must be a stalker too, as I watch some of your episodes more than once!😆😆

As a stitcher, I could not have 15 (or probably even 8) new starts in two months. But as a viewer of your fabulous videos, I definitely want you to have 8 new starts! (But really and truly, whatever you want to stitch and show us is perfect in my book.) Thanks for this fun video!

Hi Carol, I like your finish it’s very pretty. I like Amy Eliza Herbert to new start. Have a great week.

Hi Carol, Congratulations on your finish of the Brick House Sampler - I must get mine finished also. It is ok to watch the flosstubes a few times: I also watch yours more than once! Thank you for the shout out. I am so Glad that you are joining me in the #stashsamplerstarts. You have some wonderful choices. I am starting the Elizabeth Furniss 1836 from Hands Across the Sea Samplers on the 29th of August. Love the Mary Carr by needlework press. Happy stitching Nerissa

Thanks for sharing ❤

Carol- just sharing what I’m using for linen on Elizabeth Masterton- Needle and Flax Dirty Teacup but using DMC. I always enjoy seeing what you are up to and plans/thinking ahead. You and your husband do such a nice job pulling it all together every two weeks. I can’t imagine how much time it takes, but the end result video is always a pleasure to watch. Thank you!

Beautiful sampler "want to start" parade! Loved seeing samplers that were OOP or hand printed,

I stalk you lol I always watch again because I know I miss stuff while stitching or sewing

Another inspiring video Happy stitching

Another amazing video! Thanks for sharing all of the wonderful sampler charts, it would be difficult to choose which one to stitch first. The addition of the name of the chart and designer is a great addition. Have a wonderful time at your retreat! As always I look forward to your next video.

What a great video. Kudos to your dear hubby on the editing, titles added and just a “hint” of background music, fabulous!!!! As I progress in stitching I like to do the border first as it makes it easier to count the stitches jumping to a new motif in the chart 😁 I must try the Elizabeth Hunt 1845 with the coffee dyed threads, very intrigued when you mentioned that. Haven’t seen that before. Thank you so much for a great morning with my coffee for two very talented people who share 🪡🧵🙏👵

Thank you for another GREAT video! Like the 8 samplers in 8 weeks idea & several you shared i have & could do too. We'll see! I'll probably see how it goes for you first tho! 😊

Carol - Another great video and thanks to your hubs for the superior editing. Love the subtitles he is adding. Congrats on your upcoming 100th video, what a great milestone. Love all the names of the linen you have - graham crackers, butterscotch. You've got your own general store of linen. I would say that you a pretty stash for winter but since you live in FL. I start looking at projects that will be great for a snowstorm or two. I just saw the winter forecast for PA, supposed to be above average winter no prediction for snow as of yet. Since I have retired and don't have to worry about being out and driving, I say bring it own. Hope you have a great retreat and get some stitching in. Look forward to #100! Pamela A / PA

Beautiful stitching. Fun projects will be interesting to see what you choose to work on. I believe asymmetrical is the word you were looking for about the borders.

Thx Carol for yet another great flosstube. I can't wait to see which samplers you're gonna start, you have so many!

Lovely stitching and the name of the patterns is great. Thanks for the inspiration. I watch your older episodes as I stitch!

Hi, new Flosstuber here! My mom sent me your way and I'm so happy she did. I love your beautiful gallery wall and your Mary Barres - WOW she is stunning. I am actually working on her and can't wait to get her finished. Happy stitching and enjoy your weekend. :)

Fabulous ❤

Enjoy the retreat ✨️

Enjoy your hometown retreat!

The Title and Designer was nice. Looking forward to see which samplers you decide to start.

Loved Mr. Saltbox’s episode quiz. Made me laugh out loud. Thanks for another great video. I’m excited to see what you choose as your final 8. I have a couple of those charts but cannot do linen. I’ve tried and we are not friends so I’m looking for an Aida alternative. Makes me sad when there is over one making the sampler not Aida-friendly. Happy Stitching! Have fun at retreat. ❤

Your husband's editing is spot on. Thanks for mentioning Nerissa. I went and checked her out. Ouf! Very nice stitching.

Thanks to hubby for the pattern name and designer, I can stop the video and write down the info. Have a great week and the retreat.

Always love your intros. I am stitching on 99 bottles while watching your video 😊. I love seeing all your samplers and ones you are going to work on. I just received a call yesterday from Total Framing that Louisa Coulimore is finished and on her way to me. Looking forward to seeing you in Jacksonville!

Your husband is a hoot. He makes me laugh.

I have Elizabeth Furnann, Jane Summers Work, and the last Hands Across the Sea you showed ready to start. I'll join you if you start them...because like you said, you can't finish what you don't start. Lol.
