🥰 Thank you Cathy!

[@BlackSaddleRanch]

Hi Lisa, so glad I found your flosstube! You 'um are darling😊 I met you at Stitch West Spring in Ogden this yr. I was in love with your Stitchy Box from Sherry @creative keeps studio which I promptly ordered. You also gifted me an extra pink pattern stand you had brought as table favors....long story sorry😅 I hope to run into you at another retreat sometime. Love your FFO's and stories. Take care, Jenn

I Looooved this video! Thank you for sharing your wonderful stories! I have been buying small patterns to make into pillows for a dough bowl and I bought a Juki too! I bought it right around Covid and I started to learn how to sew on it and then stopped. I need to get back to the classes. I need to learn how to use the Juki again! I thought I was the only person who has never made a pillow! Yours all came out beautiful! You are definitely inspiring me...I think I need to get Spring Chicken. So cute! Thanks for sharing and I look forward to your next video! :)

[@pennyelkins2785]

Welcome back. Great pieces. Loved your stories of family stitching. My granny- ms. Lillian taught me I was 6. I wish I had kept all the things, but nooooo , probably at Salvation Army ( this was way before goodwill). I have continued to stitch every since off and on. I am now 72, and can only hope my two daughters will save the stuff. They both know how , but only my first daughter stitches. I have taught nieces, friends, or any one who wanted to learn. It’s a sickness of passion and I love it.

[@BlackCoffeeandGrits]

🥰 It sure is!! I love it too! I hope that our pieces will mean something and be loved in the future.

[@kristawilliams6375]

Loved seeing all your finishes!! I too took the leap a year ago and bought myself a sewing machine so I could make all the pretty pillows and now I'm addicted to making project bags.... Never in a million years did I ever think I would be sewing my own project bags. I failed Home -Ec in high school, but I was bound and determined to learn how to make these. Great job on your first floss tube alone I look forward to seeing more. I am a dental hygienist, but for a hot minute I thought I might have wanted to be an interior designer, a 2 week summer class at the Bradley Academy of the Visual Arts made me realize it was way too much math and definitely wasn't for me 😂. Have a great stitchy week and I would love to see what's in your drawer!!!

[@BlackCoffeeandGrits]

🤣 you gave me a chuckle. I didn't even take Home Ec, but would probably have failed it too. But look at us now!!! Making all the things! I want to try a project bag. I watched the tutorial that Elizabeth Ann Can Stitch put out. I have some really cute fabrics.... we'll see. Maybe this week. And props to you as I could never be a dental hygenist, but we certainly need those. 🙌🏻 Thank you Krista!

[@kristawilliams6375]

Hi! What a wonderful Flosstube! Apparently you are a former flosstuber. I don’t think I ever caught one of your previous videos though. You’re so fun to listen to and I was completely enthralled with all your stitching. Great job on all of those. Only one negative…not that you asked. But would you consider cutting down on your ads? I’ll bet there were 20 of them easy. Maybe you didn’t realize you can control how many are shown, but I always say…right in the middle of something we’re trying to listen to, the ad interruptions show up. Sure throws me the flow off for me. I’m thinking maybe others too. Otherwise just a delightful video and I did subscribe. Thx so much!

[@BlackCoffeeandGrits]

Hey Jannie, thank you so much for tuning in! and for your encouragement! 🥰 I'm so sorry about the ads, unfortunately I can not control that feature--it's a KZbin thing! NEW KZbinrs can not monetize their channels or control ad features until after they have 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 watch hours. Even then, if they choose to monetize or not, KZbin can still put ads wherever they want to! I know they do offer KZbin Premium which is Ad Free, but of course they do charge for that.

[@janniestanley]

That’s wild cuz I haven’t seen that many ads in any KZbin’s for a long time, new or not, except for one person. And I watch a lot. So I’m surprised to hear that. Thx for explaining it.
