Flosstube 1 Welcome to my channel🩵

[@heathermcgrath7236]

I have so enjoyed spending the last hour with you. It was like sitting with a friend and sharing stitching. Looking forward to your next flosstube!

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Welcome to FlossTube! So enjoyed seeing all your projects and I love the idea of a deer wall!! Looking forward to many more videos. Best wishes, Kristy.

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

Thank you Kristy! ☺️Hoping to get one up this weekend🩵 Krista🦋

Hi Krista! Such a great Flosstube! I look forward to your next one. I love all of you projects and I also felt like I was at my kitchen table chatting with you! 😊

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

Aww, thank you so much! 🩵I hope to have one up in the next day or two. Sickness has taken over at our home☹️

[@mrmrsjvz19]

Wonderful first video and so happy to meet you! I made notes for my first one as well after watching it back lol you did great. Welcome to flosstube!

[@patriciasonoff6695]

Hello so happy I came upon your flosstube. First I too was born and raised in Whittier CA. We now live in Texas. You also mentioned Silver Needle, it's a five hour trip for us but my sweet husband brings me to Tulsa to indulge my stitching bug. I look forward to more flosstube's....

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

Thank you for watching!! Wow, what a small world! How sweet of your husband! 🩵

[@niecielynn]

You did great! ❤❤❤

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

Thank you so much Niecie!! I’m on vacay right now but hoping to get a new flosstube up when I get home🩵

[@kjmueller]

You did such a great job on your first Flosstube! Can’t wait for the next one! ❤️

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

Thank you🩵

[@therockingchairstitcher]

It was nice to hear your experience meeting others at a stitch retreat. I would love to attend one sometime and it’s nice to know everyone is welcoming! Glad I got a chance to watch, headed over to your next video now 😊

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

Thank you so much for watching!! 🙂🩵

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

You need to go to a retreat, you will enjoy it so much. I have been blessed with so many wonderful friends🙂

[@cynthiabrew-stitchinginthe4125]

Hi Krista. Enjoyed your flosstube very much. I found you bc of our mutual friend Kim Goldman. I love your stitching! My dad lives in Colinsville right by you so I know your town well. Looking forward to seeing more from you. Blessings, Cynthia

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

Thank you Cynthia. Kim is so nice! How small this world is! Would love to meet you when you come to visit your Dad:) Thank you again for kindness, Krista

[@Roberta.SABLEStitchers]

Hi Krista, I heard about your Flosstube from Kim. Great projects! That HATS bird is amazing. Loved your sweet stories about Stitch Away. I had the same feelings going to my first retreat and also to Stitch Con. It's wonderful when people take you under their wing like that and make you feel welcomed! ❤Roberta

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

Hi Roberta! ☺️Thank you so much for watching and dropping a note🩵I always enjoy watching y’all!! Everyone in the stitch community has been so kind! I am going to Stitch-Con too and the girls from StitchAway invited me to sit with them which I thought was really sweet!

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

Well, I hit the send button before I was done😂 Thank you again🩵Krista

[@Roberta.SABLEStitchers]

I do that all the time. I'm not going to Stitch Con this year and I've heard of so many who are going. We have a family wedding in June.

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

@Roberta.SABLEStitchers Enjoy your family wedding☺️ Hopefully, we can meet one day soon! 🩵

[@RosieintheRockies]

Hi Krista, I'm also new to flosstube. Loved your first video and the variety of projects you have going right now!

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

Thank you🩵

[@suzannedeasey3688]

I really enjoyed your first flosstube. It was really relaxing and you are so easy going. Can't wait for your next video. Love your stitching choices. I am so glad I found your channel!

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

Thank you so much! Hoping to get one up this weekend🩵☺️

[@paulinedean4419]

Great 1st video, it popped up so thought I would watch. I really enjoyed watching and hear about your family and all your adventures. Love all your project you are working on. I do have some of the same patterns. Someday I hope to go to an in person retreat. Just noticed you have another video up so I will have to watch.

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

So glad you enjoyed my video!! Thank you ☺️

[@Norie8311]

Great first video!

[@redbarnsamplers]

Krista, I loved your flosstube! It felt like you were sitting in my kitchen and chatting about your stitching. You are a natural! Also, I absolutely love the idea of a deer wall. That’s a great idea. It was so fun to meet you at Stitch Away and I can’t wait to see your pin keep when you’re done! ❤️

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

Thank you so much for your kind words! 🩵☺️

[@lorettahenderson8979]

Hello Krista...loved your video...patterns are awesome...stitching is beautiful...looking forward to your next visit...best wishes❤❤

[@creativeraquelb]

Great first Flosstube, Kristen! I enjoyed seeing all of your projects and hope you will also share your quilting in the future.

[@shenandoahvalleystitcher]

Hi from a sister Krista 💜💜!! Welcome to Flosstube

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

Hello! Not too many “Krista’s” out there! Even spelled the same☺️🩵 Thanks for watching!!

[@kathycullenstern9652]

Welcome to flosstube! Enjoyed watching while I stitched.

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

Thank you! Always good to get some stitching done💕Thank you for watching!

[@nancynanke1881]

Can’t believe this is your first video you’re a pro! I’ll be waiting for the next one. Loved all of your WIPs, I’ve got several of these kitted or started. Also glad to hear someone else feels the same way I do about going into a retreat! Have a great stitching weekend.

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

You are so kind!! Thank you🩵

[@Churp66]

You sound like a pro and not a first-timer🎉 I teared up at the WIP with your Mom's stitching that you will finish. I recently got back into Cross stitch and found a piece my Mom had started probably in the 70's. Unfortunately, there was no pattern as I would have loved to finish it. You will have a wonderful keepsake once you complete it❤ Looking forward to your next flosstube.

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

Awww, thank you! Sometimes it’s okay that things are unfinished…maybe frame your moms stitching with a picture of her❤️

[@pathansen4368]

Awesome flosstube, really enjoyed. Love all your WIPs. Happy stitching!

[@debanderson1075]

I loved your first Flosstube!. I will be watching for more . Your stories and stitching are great. What inspiration with all your stitching. Love it all.

[@kathycary4798]

[@kristamoyer2975]

From one Krista to another - welcome to Flosstube!

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

Thank you! ☺️

[@Linda_James]

I used to live in Owasso and Catoosa. Owasso is a great place to live. Yes! Love the Silver Needle 🎉 Time Out 🤣 Beautiful stitching Krista. I love all of your pieces

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

Yes, we love Owasso too. Love going to the football games...#gorams #gobigred haha Thank you for your kind comments! I am thinking that one project has been in timeout long enough...time to fix the mistake!! HAHAHA

[@Linda_James]

You made me homesick when you talked about Branson. I lived on the edge of Roaring River State Park. My husband and I would go fishing on Table Rock lake every Friday night if the weather was good. Your husband may have heard of NuTech Lures. That was my husband’s company. It’s no longer in business since he passed away in July 2021. We had some great times fishing together. He taught me how to fish with a jig and a spoon. Every once in awhile I could out fish him. He was so proud of me whenever I did. He does have a few videos on KZbin. I’m in one or two. Life with him was a special time ❤ Thank you for letting me share. I’m looking forward to seeing more of your flosstubes

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

@@Linda_James Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful memories! I think you need to come sometime and let us take you fishing! I really mean it! ☺️I would love to meet you and it would be fun. See if you can out fish my husband and our friend…Larry, he is a guide here. Larry and Janice live next door to us and are the sweetest people! Have a wonderful evening and please feel free to reach out anytime! Blessings, Krista🦋

[@gourmettexas]

Hey Krista 😊 LOVE your flosstube!!! You are doing a wonderful job!!! Like you I think Liz is THE CUTEST stitcher and her laugh is contagious!!! So glad you got to meet her 😊

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

Thank you so much!! YES! That laugh!! Are you watching her Friday with Friends?! Where are you at in Texas? 🩵

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

Yes, please let me know! I would love to come down there! It’s not far at all!! She is on instagram live at 7:00pm cst. Get ready to laugh!! 🩵

[@toniawheeler9806]

I loved your flosstube! I hope to see you at Stitch Away next year.

[@jennil7797]

It is always good to meet fellow stitchers. I have to admit to being less than proficient since disability made it necessary for me to change from being right-hand to being a total lefty, but I just pretend I'm five years old again and starting from scratch! We are short of needlework shops and departments in its part of the UK (mid Wales) so I buy most things online now. I loved hearing about your family and seeing your projects. Happy stitchtimes!

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

I am so glad you are continuing to stitch! It really is about the joy it brings to us and to hear that thread run through that fabric. Doesn’t have to be perfect…just has to bring you joy🩵 Thank you so much for your kindness!

[@elizabethandersen6068]

🇨🇦 I enjoyed your first Flosstube Krista!

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

Thank you🩵

[@Dori23Stitches]

Hi Krista! I’m watching you on the suggestion of Pam and Steph and I just have to tell you. I had a very similar experience at my first retreat, which was stitch north this past April. My sister wound up having to leave because of a last-minute work obligation (which was fine because I intended to go by myself anyway, and she decided to come with). I found myself sitting at a table and stitching by myself for about an hour when I thought to myself geez I really don’t know if I should’ve come here. Next thing I know this lovely woman stopped by my table and starts complementing me on the fabric I’m stitching on. She then invited me to over to meet the ladies at her table because someone else was originally from New Jersey where I’m from. I did that and the women were so kind to me and invited me to come and sit with them because they had an extra seat. My entire retreat Experience changed at that moment. I wound up having a really great time and I’m going back next year with the ladies from that table! I’m going to Stitch Con Weekend B as well so I’ll be sure to say hi. Great video! 😊

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

Oh my goodness! Yes it can all change so fast with the kindness of others😊I’m so glad you ended up have a wonderful time. Yay, cant wait to meet you!! Thank you for watching!! 🩵😊

[@flossysewsandgrows]

Lovely to meet you Krista! Great to watch you in the UK while I stitched along and loved all your projects. Hope to see you again soon! Happy Stitching! xx

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

Hello☺️so glad you were able to get some stitching done!! Thank you so much for watching💕

[@dianapratt9708]

You are a joy to watch! I really appreciate your experience going to a retreat by yourself. I so happy it ended well. I really like watching Liz. She is so genuine. Thank you for sharing your projects.

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

You are so kind! Yes, genuine…love Liz! Thank you for watching!🩵

Welcome to floss tube! I hope you keep it up! I really enjoyed all your projects. I live near Buffalo ny and have been wanting to go to the stitch away weekend for awhile. I know it is hard to get into. It really sounds nice. I also have Martha Walmsley but have not started yet. I would love to stitch with someone. I hope see you again soon. Sue

Congrats on your first flosstube...Waving hello from the Sunny State of Arizona! Looking forward to seeing your next one.

Welcome! I love all of your work. I have stitched Chubby bird 3 times so far. I love that chart. Can't wait until the next video.

Congratulations on your first flosstube! I enjoyed seeing your stitching. I subscribed so I don’t miss your next video.

Hi Krista! My name is Jill and I live just Northeast of Seattle. I just found your channel this morning and am loving your stuff!! I have to start Flosstubes from the beginning so it might be a little bit till I’m caught up so don’t tell me too much… no spoilers!! 😂 Anyway, just wanted to say hi and let you know that I’m looking forward to catching up!

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

Thank you so much!!

[@AnneSTLMO]

You did a great job, Krista. I especially liked how you described the retreat and the warm welcome you received. You are a natural story teller and I felt as if I were there with you. Retreats are outside my mobility capabilities, but I do love hearing about them.

[@serranastitches2308]

Thanks for the flosstube. So nice to meet you. Just fyi the name for the fabric used on Sewn in Friendship is now just gray now.

[@BSRonly]

What a small world. One of my granddaughters lives Owassa temporarily. She's a missionary for our church. She's going to be transferred soon. Thank you for your retreat experiences. I'm going to my first in SC in Oct. I'm very nervous. I'm 81 and use a walker. I won't be alone. My daughter, who is a veteran stitcher, will be along too. But She's a talker and I'm not. I'm old and slow. Keep up the good work.

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

Wow! It is a small world! What retreat are y’all going to? You will enjoy it ☺️ How nice that your daughter is going with you. Thank you for your kind words! 🩵

[@lisamanning5187]

Just brilliant!!! Loved it very much - I live in West Gippsland Victoria Australia, I also quilted, cross stitch (beginner here) knit & crochet as well. I have finished 2 cross stitches so far, All Hallows Ever by hello from Liz Mathew’s which took me nearly a year to complete as one pumpkin on the chart was in time out for ssssoooo.looonnnggg!!!!! and Remember Me pin keep which I had a crack at lacing and framing it myself. I am currently working on Buzz off by Plunm Street Samplers and Rackstraw Hill by Rosewood Manor. Cant wait to see you next show!!

Great job. Beautiful stitching. I am so glad you had a good time at the retreat. I had a similar experience at Stitch Con. Walked in by myself. Sat down at a table and they welcomed me with open arms.

[@tracyjamison4015]

Enjoyed your first video. I hope you continue with them. I am a very detailed person, and since I have also done (most of) the Prim Stitch Series, please check your block #5. It looked like one of the flower petals didn’t get completed. But maybe it was just the way the fabric was on the video. Anyway I will look forward to your next video.

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

Oh my gosh! Thank you, I will check!! What fabric did you use? I just love Lori Holt!!

[@tracyjamison4015]

​@thewildflowerstitcher I used the called for fabric, BUT I stitched it over 1. Yes, I'm crazy like that. I have blocks 10 and 12 to still do. I stalled on it because I like dogs, not cats. Tried to find a dog replacement and never got back to it. But it's on my list to complete this year.

[@thewildflowerstitcher]

@@tracyjamison4015 Would you want to finish it up this month? I have two blocks left to finish and would like to this month!! I would love to have someone to stitch along with…helps me to move along😉I also used called for fabric. I’m a dog lover too!! Teresa Kogut has a dog charted on on of her charts…that might work. I’m going to look! Gosh I would love to see your 1 over 1!!

[@chrissystitchy15]

This was a wonderful first flosstube!! Thank younfor sharing your retreat experience too! I don't have a lot of stitching friends, and of those few, none that I think would plan to go to a retreat. So if I go to one now, it will likely be alone, which is super intimidating. It's nice to know that you ended up having such a wonderful experience and experienced so much welcome! Thank goodness for this online community to bring all these kind and fun people together!!

Thank you for your first floss tube. Really enjoyed it and loved all your works in progress. Hello from Ireland. Back in the early 1990's I spent a lovely month in Norman, OK. Every day was spent with some time in Michaels buying more stash than I ever needed. I couldn't get over that it was opened late at night. I'd love to go back and visit, the houses were all so lovely and all the people were so friendly and welcoming. Look forward to your next video.

congratulations on your flosstube I enjoyed and I'm so glad your showed your floss, looks like mine, only I also have a bunch of lose threads in the mix but it works for me since I stitch mostly small items, I dont like having WHIPS I just stitched Chubby Bird and starting Chubby Bunny after I finish a small Valentine stitch. One of my big plans for 2024 is to stitch all 6 of the Magical Mystery Tour by Black Bird I just kitted Strawberry Fields and think Im going to stitch 1 over 1 on 28 count This is a first for me and I have given myself permission to change my mind I like stitching on 16 count aida
