Two Tall Stitchers Flosstube 49 - Are you in the HUP club? 

My favourite thing about watching Flosstube is seeing all sorts of projects I wouldn’t see otherwise. Then I buy them all 🤦🏻‍♀️

My favorite thing is the feeling of community, COVID changed so much in my life and flosstube gives me the chance to feel invited into someone's home for an hour. It is truly an honor and something I look forward to with every video.

My favorite part of flosstube is seeing what others are stitching and finishes.

What lovely gifts our stitchy friends gift us❤

Thanks for all the Information you two share...love seeing all your quilts and patterns...thanks for the sweet visit❤❤

What I love about watching flosstube is the inspiration - it motivates me to try new things.

Hi ladies. My favorite thing about watching flosstube is all the originality and talent that people have. I also like all the gadgets that go along with it.

I mostly watch flossTube because it provides me with a community to stitch along with. There’s also the added bonus of discovering new patterns & supplies to add to my wish list ☺️

Always great to see and spend time with you two! I like EVERYTHING about watching FT! I enjoy seeing kitted projects, wip’s, FO’s, FFO’s and hearing about plans. Some haul is always fun too. I love it that most FT’ers are multi-craftual and just really love texture, color and making things. I love all of that! Happy stitching!

I love watching Flosstube to see all the things you buy and stitch. It’s like having a lot of fun stitchy friends🫎

My favorite things is seeing all the different projects. I get to admire pieces that I know I would not stitch.

I like watching floss tubers that have similar styles to my own to get ideas for color schemes and pattern designs. I’ve been stitching, quilting, doing embroidery, and crochet for more than 50 years off and on, but I’m never too old to learn a new technique. And there is always the feeling that you are sitting and stitching together. Happy stitching!

You are lucky to have a mom make Christmas gifts for you. Knit, quilt, and cross stitch.

My favorite about watching is the feeling of camraderie, and sharing info and enable entertaining. Love you both.

Great video. Thanks ladies. Always a pleasure to watch you in the morning while I have breakfast. Keep flossing x

My favorIte thing about Flosstube is meeting new stitchers and finding new friends❤ (and being asked to participate in answering a question or sharing advise.)

Thanks for sharing 🎉 Oh - I like everything about a flosstube - sharing, the technique, the people, fun ideas for finishes !

I had biscuits with jelly this morning. Nice video. My favorite thing about watching a FlossTube is seeing finishes.

Happy Birthday Mom! I love to watch flosstube because it is information, tips and how to finish projects. And the humor!! You guys are a hoot!!

The HUP Club- so funny!!!! I like the personalities of my favorite flosstubers and seeing new things to add to my wish list😮

My favorite part of watching floss tube is seeing all the different charts, fabric & floss people use! I have picked up so many new ideas and new ways to stitch and finish things! I’m usually a rule follower so I used to stitch the pattern with the called for fabric & floss and stitched it in it’s entirety! Floss tube has taught me that you can change colors, type of floss, color of fabric, only stitch a part of the pattern, etc! It has really widened my stitching world! Another great video! I enjoy you guys so much and always watch your videos as soon as they are posted!

I love seeing the new patterns and getting ideas of what to stitch from watching flosstubes. Braid, morning, jelly

For me, the best part of Flosstube is getting to know other stitchers. I don’t actually know any stitchers ‘in the flesh’ so Flosstube is the next best thing! Also I don’t have an LNS and do my stash shopping online so I love seeing what everyone is stitching and hearing about different fabrics, gadgets etc. Thanks for all your hard work in putting your Flosstube videos together - much appreciated!

I watch Flosstube for the company and all the new designs and fabrics. I don't have any stitching friends, so I love hearing others talk about their love for stitching.

Flosstube gets me excited about stitching. I love seeing the different products, projects, and finishes!

My favorite part of floss tube is the finishing ideas and tutorials. Thank you for sharing all your projects!

I love to have jelly donuts in the morning. I love watching the two of you. Thanks for another great flosstube.

My favorite thing about flosstube is the community and being part of it. I also like seeing finishing ideas because that’s my weakest area of stitching.

I just want to start so many project that flosstuber are working on. Also I love watching while I crossstitch, it's like having friends here with me. Thanks for the visit I enjoyed your video, see you next time

Flosstubes give me new ideas for finishing plus showing new pattern to enable me 😊

Happy Birthday Carol, how nice that you enjoyed it very much!!! I enjoy all the video, but New things is my passion. Beautiful finishes!!!The quilt is awesome!!

I love seeing what you have stitched. I love to see what people are stiching , new patterns.

I always love your videos! Your question of the day is always interesting and I like your summary. I enjoy Flosstube because I see what others are stitching, and I learn about new charts, flosstubers, products, and ideas.

I enjoy discovering patterns I’ve never seen before and color conversions stitchers come up with are amazing! Morning. Jelly.

In the morning I will braid my hair and put jelly on my toast. My favorite thing about watching flosstube is that I feel like I am checking in with friends. And in the case of you two I love your relationship. It's fun to see a mother and daughter who are such good friends!

I watch flosstube because I enjoy watching what other people stitch and getting a peek into other stitcher's stashes. I'm happy to watch people stitch designs I never would, like HAEDS, and then I don't feel a need to stitch them. It also makes me aware of products and supplies I somehow missed along the way.

Great video, Ladies! Watching flosstubes allows me to see new patterns and fabrics others are using. I think Vonna and Helen D offer great education on how to finish our projects, too. Since I don't have stitchy friends in my area, I feel the flosstube stitchers I watch are my people, so I don't feel lonely 🤗

Thank you for another very enjoyable video. So happy to watch.

I started doing cross stitch in August 2023. Stumbling upon FlossTubes was what got me started. I am 75 and have done various kinds of Sewing and Arts & Crafts my entire life, but had never done cross stitch. After watching some FlossTube channels, I recalled that somewhere in my craftroom was a box of various kinds of cross stitch fabric, from a garage sale. Also in the box were some unopened Dimensions Kits that I bought in the 1990's. So my new hobby began from watching FlossTubes. I've learned a lot from watching FlossTubes and am still learning.

I really enjoy seeing someone dig in on a project and watch it progress to a finish...like that 'forever in peace' flag, beautiful! Equally, I love a good life update. Even seemingly mundane stuff, like weather, Roombas, and what the dogs are doing...just those glimpses into your lives are just nice to hear about. Love what you guys bring!

My favorite part of watching videos is seeing all the potential stash acquisition candidates....lol.

Always so exciting to see you both! Inspiring, fun and filled with stitching goodness.

As a viewer I feel like I know Flosstubers as friends as well. It feels like a one on one conversation. Probably what I like the most is seeing what that person is working on and their progress each time. Learning about the new fabrics and threads and of course purchasing them when I love them at first sight😁. There’s always humor when there are two doing a video. I’ve gotten many laughs just from yours! Until next time, happy stitching!

I love the tips people talk about on Flosstube. Little things that you say, I never thought of that. Plus I feel like you are my friends talking directly to me. Chris

I love watching flosstube because I can see new patterns and accessories. Also I enjoy seeing my returning friends.

For sure, its all about the friendships we form. I usually stitch while I listen, with an earphone, to flosstube and it keeps me company while hubby watches hockey or football on tv. jelly

My favorite thing about FlossTube is definitely seeing new charts. I’ve had a Roomba for a while and my dog doesn’t like it, but he hates it less than he hates a regular vacuum. A word of warning. A friend ran his at night, but his dog had a little poop accident and when they woke up the next morning Roomba had painted the walls, furniture and everything else with poop. Total nightmare.

I don't have anyone that I stitch with and since I normally stitch while I listen it's like stitching with friends.

Thank you for the update, ladies. ⚘️ My favourite part of watching flosstubes is getting to know how other people plan and stitch (I learnt from reading kit instructions and love stitch with me videos).

My favorite part of watching floss tube is learning new things and seeing new patterns and ideas. I love seeing people love it as much as I do.

I have to agree with you on my favorite thing about flosstube is seeing the variety of patterns everyone is working on. I love seeing the new and old patterns. See ya soon.

My favorite part of flosstube is making friends for sure…I always have great company as I stitch even if it is the middle of the night.

I love that Begin Row, I think I will have to look for that one also. my favorite thing about watching floss tube is that I get to see patterns I’ve never come across before and also sometimes learn new things.

The National Park quilt is phenomenal❤

The National Parks quilt is beautiful. I think I would write the year the park was visited on the block with a Micron pen. Flosstube keeps me company while I stitch in the evening, and I get pattern ideas and tips for finishing.

My favorite part of flosstube is hearing the accents from around the world. My husband will walk through the room and I’ll tell him I’m in England, or Australia, or Scotland, or Ireland, or Texas… And sometimes they will have pics from their area. Fun, fun.

Great stitching and quilting as always. Loved seeing the different Lizzie Kate series. Have a great January!🎉

My favorite thing about flosstube is the inspiration from seeing what other makers are making! I also just enjoy the "company" when I'm stitching. Some, especially if there are two, are very entertaining and make me laugh. (You would be in that category). I had to stop this video and go order that knitting book for my daughter. I will give her a hint that I love the hat you made for Jen out of it! Happy crafting, ladies.

Love visiting and seeing your stitching. My favorite thing is seeing what others are stitching.

Thank you for sharing! Hands down, my favorite thing about Flosstube are the friendships I have developed because of it. I enjoy watching flosstube to see all the variety of charts and fabrics and flosses and finishing and FFOs. 💚💚💚

Another wonderful video! Thank you! My favorite thing about watching flosstube is the new ideas, patterns, flosses, finishes, etc that I see. I feel like you are here in my living room stitching away with me. In the morning I like apricot jelly on my toast. 😊

My favourite thing about watching floss tube is stitching along and seeing charts, fabrics, threads and new designers. No LNS here and no stitchy groups that I have found so great to see things I would have no way of seeing. It's very good for gathering info as I have learned about things like WIPGO, 123 stitch, WIP Warriors, zoom meetings like Across the pond stitch & chat . I would have missed these wonderful things if I hadn't heard about them through flosstube.

Happy birthday, Carol! We love Rocky Mountain National Park.

I like to watch flosstubes to see patterns I haven’t seen before, and to get inspiration from the way other stitchers change the colors of floss or fabric

I love seeing you both and how you interact!! So funny! Braid jelly.

I really enjoy the inspiration from Flosstube and different projects that others are working on. I feel like I'm hearing from my friends. braid

One more comment: we have an automatic feeder for our cat precisely for the reason you mentioned. The feeder goes off at 5:30 am, 10:00 am, 4:00 pm and 9:30 pm. Cooper also gets treats throughout the day. He no longer wakes us up early and can hear the feeder from upstairs. Good luck with your kitty and feeder!

I have been watching your videos for quite some time and really enjoying them. Apparently, I need a star ornament kit in my life - I am now going to order one! Watching flosstubes gives me ideas for what I would like to stitch or not stitch. They give me a sense of connection with others who enjoy stitching. I especially like flosstubes or knitting videos with mother and daughter duos. My mother encouraged me in all things fibre related from an early age. She was always so interested in and supportive of all of my various projects.

Flosstube is actually what pulled me back to stitching. My sister & I discovered as covid began. I had no idea of the items now available compared to when I stopped stitching in the late 90’s. It was surreal!!! Fibers, fabrics, & patterns-it was all so much better!! I love seeing what people are working, how they make things their own, finishes, and new products that are out there. And, as you said, the community spirit is great especially during these stressful times. Happy New Year! Belated Happy Birthday 🎂!

Jelly very nice video ladies! Thank you. My favorite thing about floss tube is connecting with other stitchers

I particularly enjoy flosstubes with two people for the give-and-take and often the chuckles or loud laughs. That said, there are several stars that run solo flosstubes that I look forward to watching as well. Learning about new fabrics, patterns, finishing, etc. has been wonderful - everything you both said. Since mid-November I have been on a buying freeze. Not that I was spending that much, but this time is a time of reassessing. I am not a big fan of long parades. Don't know why. Perhaps because I find them exhausting. And in the past month, there have been way too many. IMHO Thanks for another great flosstube!

Hi Carol and Jennifer, good to see you again. I watch because I don't know any stitchers. I feel like I'm having a small get together with friends when I watch while I stitch. I also get ideas for new patterns and finishing techniques. Happy Stitching and Quilting. ❤❤❤

I watch for the new finishing ideas and patterns. I have lot's of jellyroll s.

Santa’s House stitchery is so pretty. I love houses.

My favorite thing about FlossTube is the connection/camaraderie with other stitchers. It gives me something to enjoy watching while I stitch. As a secondary advantage, I learn of new releases of patterns, fabrics and tools, hear about events, challenges and new channels to watch. During the pandemic, it was a real plus for me and helped me to feel less isolated. The National Parks quilt is a wonderful gift, Carol! Happy stitching!

I love watching Flosstube because I get to see everyone’s beautiful work, and so often the wip looks better than the photo on the pattern. I love to have jelly on my biscuits in the morning, might need to test out making a braid in my hair today

In the morning I got up and made a Jelly Braid! Love your floss tubes!!! I love watching floss tubes to get ideas on what to stitch and how to finish

I have a lot of favorite things about watching flosstubes. I have no color sense so I love seeing the linen and floss conversions flosstubers use. (I know when something is not right, but I don’t know enough to fix it.) I also love finishing ideas.Happy stitching!❤

Seeing others accomplishments. Seeing others haul and WIPS. No local shops here. Those are my favorite things about watching floss tubers. Love to see your knitting too though and the crochet.

Flosstube: 1. Enabling and ideas. 2. I feel like I can try new things (linen, overdyed floss, silk, etc) 3. Something to entertain me while I stitch and the hubs is watching sports. I can watch FT while he watches sports and I can still sit with him. 😊

I love Flosstube because I can stitch and hang out with friends. Wire Keychain Cable I have been using for 5+ years. I had several accidents with the binder rings and I swore I was going to find a better solution and did. I love the rice bag trick. Both the braid table runner and Jelly are beautiful.

Hello Jen, thank you so much for the mention. I had talked about you on my flosstube channel congratulating you and your mother for reaching 5,000 subscribers. The second time was to talk about your national parks cross stitch pattern. And lo and behold, I tune in last night to watch your latest video and I see the national park quilt your mother made! My daughter has decided to have her wedding at Glacier National Park in September. Both she and her fiance are avid hikers and campers, and I wanted to make something to give to them that would represent their love and passion for the outdoors. I love watching your videos and am entertained by your banter. The reason I love watching flosstube, and why I decided to start a channel, was so I could connect with other stitchers. Even though I only watch people through a computer screen, I feel that I am sitting right there in front of them. This community is truly like a family 😊

Early morning is a good time to stitch. My favorite thing to view in Flosstubes is seeing the beautiful projects stitchers are working on and finishing. Of course, new patterns are always enticing also. New patterns are a symbol of hope for the future.

The finish parade was awesome❤❤

Beautiful quilt. Wow.

Good morning! The quilt behind you looks amazing!

What a great way to start the New Year by visiting with you! Carol, you'll be pleased to know I just finished my first piece of the year, a snowman. My two favorite parts of watching Floss Tube are: the camaraderie of a stitching community and to see everyone's interpretations of a design. Happy New Year!

Wonderful Gifts.

My favorite thing about watching flosstube is seeing designers I've never heard of.

My favorite part of watching floss tube is the inspiration of different fabrics and floss combinations different people use. I also like to watch while stitching and catching up with people that feel like friends I haven’t met.

Thank you for another fun episode (and I love the way Carol managed to get her v-word in there!). It's always a hoot to see what y'all have been up to! One favorite thing about Flosstube is the stitchers making the videos. I've gotten down to a very few Flosstubers I make a point to watch consistently and those are the ones whose personalities shine (to me) the most. My other favorite thing is the inspiration. Sometimes I am like Carol and stop the video to go order a pattern, but equally often, I decide to try a new technique or hunt up an old WIP because someone has shown something cool. One example -- in 2023 I made (and hit!) a goal to sew a quilt top -- because I watch you two and Sew Me Sarah. 😀

Beautiful quilt behind you.

I’ve been watching you since you started your flosstube. I love the patterns you share but I also love seeing all the finishing ideas!

Most definitely in the hup club after a hiatus of 30 years I have a lot of catching up to do. Plus who knew about these awesome project bags???? Omg I want them all!! I’ve been stitching for about 2 months I think. I already have 6 projects and six bags. Oh my goodness flosstube that’s new to me, pdf patterns! Changing colors and sals. It’s a whole new sport. 😂

My favourite thing is finishing ideas and tutorials. I stitching 9 Xmas ornaments for my nieces ( or my nephews wives but I just call them The Nieces), but next year one of my nephews who isn’t married but puts up a Xmas tree will also get added into the list. And I stitch a few for friends and myself so I am well into stitching ornaments for next year already. The National Parks quilt is gorgeous.

Thanks for the great flosstube 😍 I love to watch flosstube because it feels like spending some time with stitchy friends and that makes me happy 😊 After some years that I had short hair I really have to get used to putting my hair in a braid in the morning, my arms get tired real quick 😂😅

I love to see new patterns too.

Thanks for sharing. Happy New Year! Braid. My favorite things about flosstube videos are seeing new ideas and tips. I also like checking in to see what my stitchy friends (whom I've never met) are doing and what's going on in their lives. It's a visit with friends. I don't have any stitchers near me.

Love your channel; I just happened upon you all while I'm stitching and hoping our terrible weather will soon change. i have returned to cross stitch after over 25 years and am amazed how the craft has changed. It's great that you'll enjoy each other so much share your love for quilting as well as cross stitch, etc. Look forward to seeing what you have the next time you are online.

Happy Birthday Carol! I love the quilt you made for your son-in-law! My son would love a quilt like that! I think I watch flosstube for all the reasons you both mentioned. I started watching flosstube about 4 years ago. I stumbled on it by accident when I was looking for cross stitch items. I initially watched flosstube to see what patterns were out there that people were stitching on. I still like it for that reason, but now I enjoy watching it for finishing ideas and tips and tricks about best practices for stitching or stitching tutorials or how to make floss conversions, etc. I love the interaction with fellow stitchers as well😊. Flosstube is great company while I stitch. Have a great couple of weeks, ladies!
