Liz, I know your heart is broken from losing your furry four-legged friend. They do tend to leave paw prints on our hearts and do not live long enough. He was a beautiful boy. I really enjoyed seeing all the bunnies today while I was stitching on a bunny myself. I do love a biscornu and hope you get your bunny biscornu finished soon to enjoy. Deb, your Fat Quarter Shop Home piece adaptation was inspiring. It reminded me of when I was a little girl with a swing out near our cabin in the mountains. Love it! I guess I will say baah or baa as that biscornu is precious. Dottie

Ivan probably never knew he had such a great fan club among your subscribers. I know there are no words to comfort you now. It is as my husband says, “every time you bring a pet into your life, know that one day they will break your heart”. That is true, but they also bring so much joy and love into your life. I hope your heart mends soon.🐕🦺❤🐕🦺

Hello Ladies. First, Liz, I am so sorry for your loss. Ivan looked like he was the bestest boy. Also, I am a new subscriber and new to the whole Flosstube world. I stumbled upon a video on Pinterest from the The Real Housewives of Stitching. From there I found you ladies. The first of your videos was from about 4 weeks ago and I subscribed right away. The next video I saw was your stitching time. I loved it! I grabbed my stitching and felt like I was right there with you. Love having someone to stitch with. None of my friends stitch. I enjoy hearing about your families and about where you live. As a family, my husband, myself & our 6 kids loved vacationing in Pennsylvania. Dutch Wonderland, Strasberg, Hersey Park all hold great memories! I’ve gone back to watch your videos starting with the first one. So, I’m “catching up” while looking forward to your next new video! Eileen

And Deb your piece with the water in variegated flosses is turning out so very pretty, so unusual as it is a tall vertical piece when finished. My sympathies to you Liz and your family at Ivan’s passing🙏 Losing your beloved pet is soo hard and the grief is felt so deeply in the heart.

My brother had a stroke last year and while he was in the nursing home trying to recover some, his black lab also passed away. He is home but confined to a wheelchair and he and his wife just went and chose a chocolate lab puppy to be his new companion in a couple of weeks. They definitely become part of the family. Until your next update video, I hope you both have plenty of stitching time.
