Flosstube #14: Priscilla & Chelsea-The Real Housewives of Cross Stitch

[@crystalthechurchmousestitc1888]

Again, a wonderfully inspiring video. Love the stitching and the quilts. Priscilla, the cookies are works of art. Looking forward to seeing you two next Saturday. Take care....Crystal.

[@elleh9381]

Priscilla those stockings are a work of art. Great projects! So much fun. Thanks for all you do ladies.

[@thistlestitcher232]

I just love hanging out with you two. It’s the craziest thing that, while I don’t know you-I know you-and I look so forward to stitching while I listen to you two chatter away-it really makes my day. So, thanks for that! I went to my local craft shop the other day, all the while, trying to imagine my shameful box of sad finishes that are crying to be made into something amazing. Hmmmm, I thought to myself....how would Pricilla and Chelsea finish this? I got some cool stuff that I am excited to work up and share on my first floss tube next month. So, thanks for that too! Please keep stitching, keep showing finishes and keep being so much fun to share all this craziness with!

[@carolyncrandall710]

The two of you are just simply THE BEST !! ❤️❤️

[@rowenaphilbeck1919]

Love the stockings. Very beautiful. You both are so talented. Love your puppies in the video too. Have a Great Week.

[@farmboyslove980]

Thanks for stitching with me tonight. I worked on my Linen & Threads SAL. I vote to start the winter SAL on Dec 28, so we can "celebrate" with yall. Stitch on!

[@lynnyvonnestwo]

Lovely Ladies, Those Cookies Look Good, And Your Quilts Are Beautiful,Looking Forwards To Seeing The Winter Pattern !!!!!!!!!!!! Till Next Time Happy Stitching :))XX

[@mariadusablonpacheco9725]

As soon as I get a message that your video is up I watch you because you are both so bubbly and happy you make me happy! 😊 Your projects até are beautiful! Thanks for sharing. Happy stitching 😀

[@nanking4954]

Another fun video ladies with lots of beautiful stitching and finishes.

[@kabrinadawn9200]

I adored your matching shirts in the last video but I LOVE the Halloween sweaters. Too cute! You two just make my day when I get to watch a new video.

[@myrnajones4512]

Short and sweet. LOVE IT ALL!!!!!

[@chrissieb3350]

Great video!! You two make my Saturdays....so fun & inspirational to our love of cross stitch 👍😁

[@Lllr55]

You can use Thangles for half square triangles! They are made from paper. You sew right on the paper and then take the paper off and you have perfect half square triangles! They come in many different sizes. Quilt stores carry them and Amazon as well. You will love them!! ❤

[@kellysluiter5241]

Another inspiring video. Hope you have a wonderful stitchy week. Happy stitching

[@bethtourtellotte419]

Another great video Chelsea and Priscilla. Thank you for sharing your talents. You inspired us to go to Joanne's and select Christmas fabric with my daughter to stitch a quilt. Next time she is home, we are going to start it. She lives 2 hours away. Almost done with Lantern, probably next Sunday will be finished. Can't wait to see the selection for the winter SAL!!! Have a great week!

[@giselem.kusmik5110]

All I have to say is thank you ladies for doing what you do! Priscilla your giggle MAKES MY DAY and it makes me giggle too!

[@myalabamahome1125]

Everything looks wonderful and those quilts - now I'm inspired to do one maybe after the first of the year. Keep up all the great work!

[@darlenedietle824]

I have really been enjoying your videos! My older friend who taught me to quilt used the tying method of finishing, but called them comforts. I cheated on a small tree quilt and put it on a piece of foamcore with batting and hung it on the wall! Keep up the good work.

[@marymac1646]

You two and Yvone enabled me. I got "Farm Fresh Eggs". My cat is not allowed on the table either - LOL! I don't know how you get so much done. Your stitching, quiliting, finishing - I'm so impressed. It's beautiful. Your quilts are adorable and cozy.

[@janetprather7324]

What can I say! Your videos are always inspiring with humor lol. I am going to look for the Miracle Grow pattern. It is super adorable! Loved seeing everything. Why can't I live next door to fun people like you two??!!

[@drusillapendlebury6207]

You are so welcome enjoy those patterns!!! Love your video’s ! All Your stitched pieces look great ! The quilts are Beautiful !!! 🙂.

[@tinageorge8759]

Another terrific video, you two are so very special. I went over to your blog Priscilla and I can't tell you enough how great your cookies look and I'm literally blown away with all of your fantastic pumpkins, my goodness, and yours as well Chelsea!!! 💚🎃

[@yarnsnthreads]

Thanks for another great video! I am looking forward to seeing what the winter SAL will be. I think the 28th is a great start day. I love the quilts, God with you for making them. I do know how to quilt but nope not gonna. I am like you I all about the Christmas stitching, most of mine will be gifts with the hopes of a few ornaments thrown it if I can.

[@Ksjuliea]

Oh poor Daisy, her feet keep slipping! Love all your videos! Can't wait for a quilt tutorial!

[@EclecticSB]

Love your videos, no time to stitch but love seeing your work.

[@liz.b.laing.]

Loved your video as usual ladies you cheer me up no end and I go off with a smile on my face! Your quilts are lovely and I like that the stitching isn't perfect. Liz x

[@ogdenstitcher7731]

I wait every Saturday for your video. I am so excited for your winter SAL reveal. I haven't done a SAL before so this will be my first. As always ladies, great job.

[@janniestanley]

I’m in shock! Finally get to see and see the other Super Woman! Nice to see you two. Love that you’re so close. But have never figured Priscilla’s energy out. Same with Vonna! Went to check on Your cookies and saw you’re doing flosstube! Been a fan for years but stepped out of stitching for awhile. Yeah for these videos.

[@kerryokeeffe7683]

Your quilts look great, i have not tackled quilting yet, maybe one day....hmmm. Love halloween rules, you can do it Chelsea, who needs sleep just stay up...do a stitchathon!! Love all you patterns you have got, hopefully i will be able to join in with the next sal.

[@KatesCraftingCorner]

You two are so much fun. Can't wait to see what the winter stitching piece is. Maybe, to simplify the tags, they should all be #pc (then whatever the theme is) so like #pclanternlane #pchometownholidays #pcsantasunday #pcwintersal . Just an idea. But it keeps all the Priscilla and Chelsea sals together. My lantern lane stuff and hometown holiday stuff is out for delivery right now. I cannot wait! Looking forward to the next video. Enjoy Halloween. Priscilla, those pumpkins look amazing! I barely have the patience to carve one pumpkin. lol. Happy stitching!

[@craftycreativeclare5424]

Fab video ladies. We were talking about you at the Milton Keynes stitching retreat in the UK this weekend 😃. Love the silver creek Halloween finish in the tray. Beautiful and as inspiring as always. Happy stitching love Clare xx

[@marlaleclerc9491]

Cookies too cute to eat ! Thank you for a wonderful video !

[@candicecoyan3014]

Priscilla - you have a great crafty eye! So creative! Thank you for sharing with us! 😍 Maybe a quilt is in my future!! The dynamic duo strikes again!!

[@alexminerath3059]

My walking foot was only about $30 and it works great. And honestly it makes straight line quilting WAYYYY easier.

[@jordansensenig8366]

There's a really easy way to make half square triangles. Cut 2 sqs the same size, and sew in 1/4" the whole way around the square, right sides together. Then lay your ruler from corner to corner and cut across (2 cuts), this will give you 4 half square triangles! You can experiment w/ different sizes to get the size you are looking for. Have fun!

[@marisolreyes6502]

I really enjoy watching you two. I look forward to your weekly videos. I’m on vacation & just had to take time to watch your recent one. I whole heartily agree. Quilts need not be perfect. Imperfect quilts made with love are the best. Don’t change anything of how & what you are doing.

[@anndunkin2756]

You two make me smile. I look forward to your videos each week. You both have inspired me to start stitching again after a thirty-five year hiatus. I have always stitched on aida and I’m wanting to try linen. What count would you suggest for a first timer. I have been stitching on eighteen count. As far as the winter SAL goes, I think it would be appropriate to start it on Chelsea’s birthday. Priscilla, I purchased your chalk for the home autumn pattern and want to purchase the other two. I think they are just amazing. The chalkboard drawing that you did would make a wonderful cross stitch pattern in my opinion. Have a great week and happy stitching and quilting.

[@aluverlie]

Thoroughly enjoyed the video. I love the perfectly imperfect aspect of your quilting because your quilts are so cute. I'm finishing up a Halloween small and I will be gearing up for Xmas stitching also. I will be joining the winter sal tfs

[@darleenbumgardner6566]

Love your video! You two crack me up! Aways enjoyable and informative. I am in Minnesota at the retreat.

[@melyellystitches]

Love you two to pieces!!!!!💞💞 Another awesome video!! Look forward to these every week! Keep up the amazing work!

[@lindacraig5056]

Love your finishes and your quilts are beautiful. Puppies are as adorable as ever. Thanks for another fun video.

[@jerip7704]

You always brighten my day! Love those shirts, and your sweet furballs ( mine would have been on those cookies in a heartbeat!) The quilts look lovely. I used to struggle with straight lines and a walking foot but my pieces more often looked like the surface of a windy lake, and I had to invent watery names for them. Now I drop the feed dogs and go commando, never go in straight lines, meander everywhere and even commit the crime of crossing a line when I sew myself into a corner. I have no pride, but my quilt tops are finally finished!

[@mcnelleyfarms]

Love the video! Y’all make my Saturday.

[@dakotastitcher]

Love half-squared triangles!! That's my favorite:) thanks for sharing your stitching and quilting!!

[@kellybellstitches3383]

Beautiful quilts - I don't need perfect either - I usually have the sewing machine on high and get it rocking....LOL. Pumpkin carving for my house was last night, parties tonight and cupcakes to go to school tomorrow. Yay - Happy Halloween - and of course - Happy Stitching.

[@loriscicolone4095]

Hi just love all finishes. Thanks for the idea for the Halloween quilt. I made two,! I have a waking foot and it is a good investment because all your straight stitching for quilting it will feed in evenly. Especially if you want to make a few more quilts. You made all those cookies ! WOW I'll tag you on instagram when I finish the binding. I usually do that by hand. That takes the longest.

[@doviecrofutt7344]

Love the post, ladies! So much fun hanging out.

[@kristinerice7736]

Always love to see your finishes! So creative!

[@pamelaabate4731]

Wow, your Christmas quilts are beautiful! Can’t wait to see the winter stitch along. Chelsea you and I share the same birthday! Love all your stitching and I hope Chelsea finishes her Halloween Rules before Halloween. Thanks for the great videos they are so inspiring. Happy Stitching!

[@StitchingIsMyHappyPlace]

Great projects, as always. I think you should do a video showing us your Pandora pieces!!

[@bzmluv1]

I just love you two so much!! You always make me smile and laugh! Priscilla and Chelsea have become household names in my family! I'm always talking about what you did each week. Another great video! Have a GREAT Stitchy Week!

[@carolhebert7964]

Hi, Ladies! I was stitching with my So Cal Stitchers (FB group) ladies today, and several asked which flosstube videos they should watch , so they don’t have to figure it out. You are at the top of my list I am sending them tomorrow. Have a very happy Halloween, and thanks for all your inspiration.

[@tammybunge5615]

OMG the stockings are ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!!

[@thecraftymews]

You two make my day.....love the quilts

[@tammybunge5615]

Your quilts are so pretty!! So Christmassy🌲🌲🌲

[@carolswindler5010]

Ok so you already have me making Christmas quilts for my 2 grandsons but I'm not so sure I could make such beautiful cookies, Priscilla. Chelsea I'm taking a half square triangle quilt class this week so look forward to seeing yours. Your fabric selection is super cute. I'll be using civil war type fabrics. You girls are so inspiring. Love to see ALL the things you work on. Can't wait to see your house decked out for Christmas. Your Halloween decorations are amazing! Be safe!

[@edwinamckee3229]

Great choice of fabrics for your quilts. Love your videos and am inspired to work on Christmas projects.

[@donnaraebarrow6079]

Fantastic video... as always! Love that you two pack in so much stitchy goodness, keep it bright and happy, answer all the questions, and have so much fun! I haven’t yet taken part in a hashtag or SAL, but now I’m anxious for the next reveal. Did you say it’s going to be a tart?

[@zulu390]

Love your videos, you ladies are so fun talented!! Chelsea, we are birthday twins! 😄

[@carlenehall2979]

As usual ladies an uplifting and fun video! I look forward to inviting you both into my life every week. I agree with what one other lady said- I don't know you both but feel that I do. It was neat to hear Chelsea mention my name and answer my question about the Halloween quilt material, thanks Chelsea! Lovely projects finished and in progress. Happy Halloween!

[@gailsaucier9792]

You guys just make me smile.

[@susansolloway6262]

Such busy ladies. All your stitching is beautiful. I love that you're having fun doing everything.

[@yvonnesnellings8027]

EEEKKK! Amazing as always! Love the quilts, cookies, WIPS.......Always look forward to a new video each week! Thanks for keeping me inspired!

[@arleneg1271]

Priscilla, I wanted to name my oldest son, Rhett, but my husband would not let me. We have a Ben instead. However, it is a family name on both sides of the family so that is ok.:) Love the idea of an after Christmas stitch. Will be looking forward to the pattern reveal. As usual I love all the stitching and the quilts are wonderful as well.

[@moosemom2010]

Another fun video! Priscilla I love your laugh! ❤️ Happy Halloween ladies 🎃👻🎃

[@karenkorn8180]

You 2 are so fun and industrious❣️

[@colleenhenderson8302]

Thanks for another lively and informative video. I’m looking forward to the winter SAL. I think Chelsea’s birthday would be a great day to start it. Lantern Lane is coming along, and I hope to finish it by Christmas.thanks again.

[@jillipepper5353]

The ink circles pattern has Nuclear Power towers in the back which caused the weird over growth of plants and animals. That series has a political tongue in cheek in each one. Loved the video as usual✨💖✨. I see your creativity popping up all over Flosstube and Instagram👍🏻👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 well done. Happy crafting🙋🏼

[@sandymarks1366]

Love your videos! I vote for starting the stitch along on your birthday Chelsea cause that’s my birthday too whoo!

[@priscillas2000]

Sandy Marks yay!!!!

[@carolsferra3582]

The Quilts are perfect!!!! Perfection only comes from a factory...not loving hands!!!

[@lisabates6903]

Love the videos! Hope you both have a wonderful Halloween. The cookies look amazing!

[@jessnbuck311]

I love how creative you gals are! Keep up the great work!

[@felicitystitches3143]

Another great video ladies! Can you believe my Bobbing For Pumpkins just now arrived 😮 #nextyear 😉 Chelsea I love the Madame Chantilly designs - looking forward to seeing how those turn out. I love that you’re bravely expanding your quilting skills - might be fun to see a video on that separate from the cross stitch (you know, in your spare time 😂) Priscilla the pumpkins on the blog are amazing!! Your blog is now my favorite place to check in each week! Happy Halloween 🎃! Xoxo, Jen

[@cindygaudet1390]

I did the stocking that David has for my son. Took me forever! Love your finishes!

[@marylang5618]

Another fun Mother & Daughter video! I Love Everything you do 😊 I can’t buy fabric and start quilting 😳 but you are tempting me so bad...shame..shame..Lol! I just bought knitting needles and yarn...and I don’t know how to knit 😳 Beautiful stitchy pieces and I can’t wait to see what you come up with for the Winter Stitch Along ❤️❤️❤️

[@theresaborn8160]

Your Christmas quilts are so pretty! Love red! You are inspiring me to dust off my sewing machine and get quilting again! Walmart sells a 'quilt basting spray' that works really well at keeping your layers together. (maybe somebody already told you that...) I get the cheapest kind and spray my backing, layer the batting, and spray that and layer the top. Then I pin-baste (large safety pins, placing them outside my quilting line so my needle won't hit them). The more your layers are stabilized, the less chance they will shift and the combination of the spray baste and the pins lessens the need of a walking foot (just my opinion and experience, I hope you don't mind the tips!) It does take a little time to do those extra steps but I find it's worth it to me in the end...happy sewing and stitching!!! : )

[@Cindyscrossstitch]

The chalk pieces are so pretty. I will have to go visit the cookies. The quilts are came out great. Fabric can be addicting :))) happy stitching ladies.

[@laurarussell716]

Hello Ladies! I'm a little behind on video watching, so forgive me if you already mentioned this, but Chelsea you may be interested in "Free Range" by The Cricket Collection. When I saw it, I thought of you. One pattern is many beautiful chickens and the other smaller pattern is bees! Love your videos and your finished projects! TFS!

[@debbyduarte2334]

great videos ladies as always you guys are so talented i wish i could do what you guys do specially with sewing im not good at that, love the quilting . priscilla shirer was in canada this weekend i went to see her LOVED IT love your dogs they are so cute keep up your great stitching i want to see it all god bless debby duarte

[@elisareynozo9510]

Send me a cookie!! LOL. Enjoyed your video so much. Y’all are very cute together and I look forward to seeing the next video!!

[@jsapcakrrow]

Love your finishes-as always. :) I don't know how ya'll can get so much done. It would take me a month if I tried to do a quilt & ya'll do one in a few days-OMG! I've been working on Double Double for the last month & there is no way I will get it done by tomorrow. Then I have to start on a xmas CS from last year I never finished, determined to get it completed this year.

[@ritaedwards1456]

I love your videos. One of my favorite things to watch for is Chelsea's face every time Priscilla says the name of her FB page. Hilarious. Question - it LOOKS like you have matching bracelets. What is on them? Your stitching is great. The finishing is amazing. Please keep doing these videos even though it's a full time job.

[@dydnas1]

Waiting on my Sunflower Manor pattern, from the moment I saw it I loved it, thank you! Hope to join your winter sal!

[@sharontorres9536]

I enjoy your videos so much. You guys are great. Happy Halloween!!

[@bizybee65]

Happy Halloween Ladies! I've been watching for awhile now and haven't commented, but I really enjoy seeing all your projects and getting inspired to pick up my stitching as much as I can. Looks like the pups were really hoping for one of those cookies, they sure kept their eye on them! I know my four would be after them! Have a great week🎃--Anne

You probably dont care but does anyone know of a method to log back into an instagram account? I somehow forgot the password. I love any help you can offer me.

[@ernestangel2809]

@Abram Drake I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and im in the hacking process atm. Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.

[@ernestangel2809]

@Abram Drake it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy:D Thank you so much, you saved my ass !

[@abramdrake4510]

@Ernest Angel Glad I could help xD

[@deannaellett1906]

Chelsea if you are going to try half square triangles google the magic 8 half square triangles for a tutorial It is much easier to make accurate pieces using that method. Good luck! Another great video. Thanks!

[@kansascitygirlinacoloradow4285]

Puppy! Thanks for the shout-out b

[@shirleyflavell5705]

Oh gosh you both make my day. I laugh, giggle and have a smile on my face the whole viewing. Loved your video. Got the giggles with puppy trying to get a grip on the table while you carried on chatting . Priscilla were your Christmas stockings kits or charts? Chelsea loved your Madam Chantilly charts. Which one first:) Look forward to hearing what the Winter SAL will be. (Summer where I live)

[@suespeigner9076]

Ladies you are wonderful!! I so enjoy each and everyone of your videos!! Chelsea can you tell me where I can find a list of the patterns that go with the pet store that you made and I know your mom has made several. I can't remember if they are Little House Needleworks or Country Cottage Needleworks. Thank you so much for all you do and share!! Priscilla those stockings were absolutely amazing just as all of the things you create!! Love you ladies so much!! You just make my day!!

[@priscillas2000]

Sue Speigner little House Needleworks hometown holidays .. thank you!

[@cthybyd]

Your dogs are so darn cute!

[@dianay2909]

You should look up the midnight quilting show here on KZbin. It’s a craftsy show, she shows how she does a bunch of different style quilts. I also watch the Missouri quilting company. I’ve never made a quilt since I don’t have a sewing machine that works, but I have certainly done my research for when I can. I did the same before starting cross stitch. 😂

[@charleneogle6427]

Fun, fun! Happy Halloween 🎃

[@sharonwurm2684]

Love your projects and quilts. Thanks for the Amazon tip on the pie tins. Wondering if you are also doing a Facebook group for the Winter stitch a long in case we don’t do Instagram? I’d be happy to help with that if needed. Thank you!

[@candaceramirez9277]

I love watching your videos, they're so cute! Your progress just absolutely stuns me!! How much daily do you each spend stitching? Just curious. Keep up the amazing work, both stitching and crafting! 😊

[@glendamckinney6433]

From Glen and Jen in Tenn. Questions after our coffee tea dye tasks in which all look one color and are not "aged" enough. 1. Do you "cook" fabric in a pot on the stove top or do you soak it in the coffee-tea liquid, squeeze out, and "bake" in the oven? 2. Do you use instant coffee and tea, or do you brew the tea and coffee? 3. Do you cut some of the pieces of Monoco into smaller sizes before you "cook/bake" them or leave it as one big piece and fold it on a cookie sheet if baked? 4. Do you go back and smudge up sections with wet coffee to get the mottled effects during the "cooking/baking" or after ? 5. Do you rinse out the coffee/tea before "cooking/baking" or after "cooking/baking"?

[@sararichards518]

Forgot to say - your dogs are adorable!

[@sararichards518]

Miracle Grow is a fertiliser you buy at gardening shops in the UK. The pattern is full of mischief! Would you demonstrate your fabric dyeing for us? I’d love to watch. I love chickens as well. They are such fun. Wish I could eat a cookie as well. Thanks for a hugely entertaining video. Hugs from England xx

[@wooleygirl5240]

Another enjoyable video. Loved your WIPs. You two are so funny and look adorable in your sweaters. What is the name and count of the fabric that you stitch on? Thanks.

[@marylouiseturner7925]

I can hardly wait each week to see what you two have been up to.

[@MarleneBush]

I wish I was there to have one of those cookies! Blessings, Marlene
