Flosstube #11 - Stitching Shenanigans & Sampler in a Jar Tutorial!!

[@kaetac]

Lori, you're amazing. I would like one of each, please. I love the bags Kristie made for you, they're so beautiful. I don't quilt so now I want to learn how to. The colors you chose for your projects are so beautiful! Love them all. Thank you.

[@monicabradford8331]

Lori I just love the idea of honoring the women in your family by creating samplers with their name stitched on it, then displaying them on a wall. Love, love the sampler button idea. I’ve been making the crocheted flowers and really like your yarn. I got a covered button kit and will be making buttons next. I want to make project bags soon!

[@joannebeaudry3122]

I truly enjoy your Flosstubes. Love your sense of colour, creativity and generosity in sharing your knowledge !! Thanks ... Joanne

[@janethodges1248]

I love your red buttons. I also love your idea on making samplers with grandmothers name.

[@vickyb5935]

Lori, so enjoyed this episode - my first time to “see” YOU….always hear your name from others , etc but did not realize you had your own channel. AND, so thrilled to see your “The Milk & Cream co.” as that is a pattern I have bought and am just ready to start it - love your color changes so may need to check into yours! Your other finished pieces, too, are gorgeous!

Thank you Lori for sharing the Sampler in the Jar! I've started one using blue thread instead of red. I'm working on the whole alphabet! :)

[@joannmarch]

What a small world. My beloved father-in-law was also from the little town of Pacentro, Italy!

[@enolagtullis4247]

Love all of your stitching projects/finishes. I kitting up my barns just need to figure out what I am going to put in the barns. So many choices 🥰☺️

[@tanyawilson853]

You are so talented. Love seeing all of your patterns and projects!

[@ryderjones9953]

Hi Lori, I love watching your videos too. You have taught me so much. I have learnt to crochet because of you - and we won't mention the desire to cover buttons too. I have been searching for the tools in all those different sizes like you have but with no luck. It would be fabulous to have a set with the clear template all in one go - perhaps an idea for you to create and sell. I know I would be buying them and paying shipping all the way to New Zealand. Thanks for your inspiration, teaching and enabling.

[@cmdebi]

Oh my that Sampler in a jar idea is brilliant!!! I’ll be looking at my patterns in a new way. Your framed pieces are beautiful. Thank you for all the inspiration and sharing of ideas. My quiltybarn pattern and needle minder arrived last week. I’m thinking a drum of quilty barns.

[@LoriHolt]

Hi Debi, thanks so much:) ❤️ What a great idea to do a quilty barn drum!

[@theresezupancic6763]

Love the red sampler idea with the Italian grandmother! I am full blooded Italian super great idea. Awesome work.

I LOVE the sampler in a jar so much! What a fun, satisfying quick stitch and finish. I can't wait to make some myself. You have such great ideas, I love your channel. Thank you for sharing your creativity.

[@judyheaton6362]
