Flosstube #15: Memories in May

[@thesussexstitcher]

Thank you for a great flosstube ... you are both a great bundle of joy.

[@Mamasmovietime]

You ladies are a breath of fresh air. Thank you so much for your Joy, laughter and great attitudes. You are just so much fun. I laugh so much watching you laughing and giggling. 💞

[@jenniferhannah4424]

What a joy to see you again! Your bubbly enthusiasm is contagious. Thank you. I just knew Anita would get in a few stitches and that fabric choice is gorgeous. Can't wait to see this finished! Those super cute shirts fit your personalities to a "t". Holly that silver plate is perfect for the Heartstrings Samplery. Looks like it will be a quick stitch and can easily be "Priscillafied".

[@wooleygirl5240]

I enjoyed your video so much! You two are so full of happiness and it's contagious! Loved seeing your haul. Happy stitching! Pam Miller

[@jen-threadbythread0630]

Thank you for sharing your joy with us! Love your haul, your retreat stories, and just hanging out with you while stitching. Have fun the last few days of school! Enjoy the final stages of wedding prep and each step leading up to the day and beyond! It will be a wonderful day no doubt! Happy Stitching! ~Jen

[@beckygodby713]

Thank you for a wonderful hour of stitching! Love your videos. Glad to see you had a good time at the retreat.

[@angelaspringett1262]

two lovely ladies are awesome. I always have a smile on my face when watching you. You scored with your hauls☺. I especially love th "HoHoHo". You PEPs in America get some fabulous charts. Perhaps I need to look further afield. Mind you we do get some lovely charts in England to. Happy stitching until the next time☺.

[@kentuckywomanstitcher2174]

Hi, Holly and Anita. What a great video. I'm glad you had so much fun at your retreat. I love all the patterns that you bought and Holly, you really scored on fabric. Thank you for acknowledging Memorial Day. We always need to remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. Hope your end of school schedule is not too hectic. Happy stitching. Kathy

[@mishellegarrett9243]

Speaking of your weather going from winter to summer. Welcome to our typical California. We must be having your spring this year. I'm loving it.😉

[@nancyfischer6211]

I love your podcasts so much! You are so genuine. And of course, I love your projects. Happy stitching

[@carla_mc]

Loved hearing all about the Midwest retreat. Sounds like great fun. Saw your two smiling faces in lots of IG picture posts. I am looking forward to making it to Stitchville USA one day too. The Stitching Nook's finishing retreat should be fun too with all that new trim.Thanks for sharing.

[@melissaeggleston733]

So good to see you both! Loved hearing you talk about Marlene lol, she's one I'm super excited to meet at stitch-Con! I'm a homeschool mama, can't believe I never thought about using those dry erase pockets I have all over my house 🙈

[@marylang5618]

You ladies are so much fun!!! I would love to sit st your table! I’m not a huge crow fan unless it’s “cutesie” on a fall piece 😉.....Thank you for sharing all your gifts and goodies! I think you both did a good job 😊 Thanks for bringing sunshine to my day 💕

[@KittenStitcher]

FUN FUN FUN! I have retreat envy. I'm glad you guys had a great time -- it was fun hearing about all of your adventures. :) - T

[@dorothy9276]

[@lisanortman4494]

Enjoy watching your videos so much, and your thoughts about Memorial Day were beautiful. Loved meeting both of you at the retreat!

[@kellypruitt3860]

My first time watching. Now I have to catch up. Loved watching you both.

[@bettyulan1247]

Always enjoy your videos. I’m glad you liked what I sent. I was afraid Anita already had the PS. You bring so much joy. I don’t get out very often so Flosstube is my window to the world. Thank y’all so much for making my days brighter. I love you both.

[@kathynewhart471]

Love you ladies...you are both so a joy to watch!! thx for showing all of your FFO's, patterns, and all of the rest...I really enjoy the fact that you can take a pattern and make it your own...that's so wonderful about cross stitching...you can tailor it to your own taste...I just realized that I had subscribed to you some time ago, but hadn't turned on the notification ..which I did today...I want to make sure that I catch your next video right when it comes out...have a wonderful holiday.....take care

[@marywarman7491]

Always good to start my day with you two! You’re just a joy to watch.

[@twohandedstitches6097]

This is the first of your videos that i've ever watched, I'm only 3mins in and already you are cracking me up. You;re so excited lol.

[@meredithprovance5774]

Wow -I didn't realize how 'successful ' your Stitchville visit was! It was great to meet you at the retreat and, of course, I still love seeing your videos 😊 Hope your school stays reasonably cool for these last couple of weeks!

[@lynnbencic3089]

What an enjoyable video!!! Thank you for sharing the fun filled time you had at retreat with us. I just attended my first retreat at Dyeing To Stitch in Virginia Beach this past April and I came home on a retreat high that I am still experiencing!!! Loved all your haul y'all!! Looking forward to your review of stitch Maynia. I participated for the first time in Maynia this year and had a fabulous time. Happy stitching and wedding planning!! Lynn

[@livesofheritage]

Seems to me I had a bee small once, in that exchange Anita. 🤣 I so love the Buzz, Buzz pattern you received!! Love you gals! Great video as always!! I agree about the cardinals and bluebirds!

[@mondotstitches]

I loved my HAA moment at Stitchville. My son was graduating the following day otherwise I might have been at the retreat. One of these times it will work with my schedule. Glad you found some goodies at Stitchville. Blessings, Diane.

[@julietippie3623]

By the end of your videos I am laughing right along with you both. Your happiness is contagious.

[@elizabeththompson1882]

Girls you are the best, thanks for making my morning....

[@teresasaenger5293]

The retreat sounds like a real blast I'm a little jealous even though I'm going to a local retreat next weekend :) Still loving that Lady Liberty and your starts are lovely! I'm still looking for her!

[@Cindyscrossstitch]

Love you ladies. I don't like black crows either, they are mean birds. You purchased some really nice patterns. I am sure Yvonne is happy you got her piece. And a cherry on top for having Marlene's. Glad you had fun at the retreat. Happy memorial day.🌻🌻

[@giselem.kusmik5110]

LOVED this wrap up of your retreat - first, I totally believe you ladies are teachers of children....how to try to stop someone from stealing your small....”stick it in your drawers..”, “lick it...” 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣. Also, I don’t know whose retreat video I watched - maybe it was Farm Girl..... I actually HEARD HOLLY’S LAUGH! How FUN! It made my day! 😊😂🤣😎 Great to catch up with you both! ❤️

[@renafurman1890]

Although I don't always comment on your videos I want to let you know I enjoy both of you immensely. You always put a smile on my face... as a retired Administrator Assistant I know what you are saying when you talk about teaching and your classrooms. 😊. Enjoy the up coming wedding and please Anita share a few pictures if you can and want too. ❤️🇺🇸

[@tinageorge8759]

Another happy video, you both just touch my heart and I love you both!!! Holly, I have stitched the Lizzie Kate Summer Basket and I love how it came out, I will share a picture on Instagram to share it with you! 💚

[@neilachaouch6262]

Sorry I stole Henrietta, but we all know it stayed in my hands about as long as it stayed in yours! Great fun. And thanks for the tags. I’ve already put mine to use on project bags.

[@rhondaedwards6736]

Does your faces hurt from all the laughing...mine does while watching yall. Sing Like Nobody's Listening...I do not blame you it is precious. I agree Holly make them cardinals. Great find on that tray Holly...it is awesome! All that open cut work around the side! Our best friend passed from agent orange. He toured in Vietnam & never knew he was exposed to until he became deathly sick.

[@helend.flosstube]

It sounds like you had an amazing time at the retreat! Thank you for sharing the fun with us!

[@lindacraig5056]

Sounds like it was a great retreat but how could it not be with Marlene, Yvonne and you 2 there?? Henrietta was the topic of conversation in all of the videos.LOL Thanks for sharing and happy stitching.

[@tamieneal2343]

Love you ladies! My dad also served during the Vietnam war and I did too, he served in Korean War and WWII in Italy my birth father served in the Philippines in WWII also. We are fortunate to be able to serve and both of them came back from those wars. Did I miss the gift exchange between you? Is it in your next video? You are absolutely the sweetest people in the world along with Jordan and Jamie of Basic Stitches podcast.

[@sherrybreit1653]

I love you ladies. I've been binge watching you two! You have inspired me. (In other words, this is totally your fault.) I'm planning to start the 2017 Linen and Threads Mystery Sampler. I'm still working on gathering my things together.

[@cristachappell2887]

What a nice wrap-up of the retreat! You clearly had a wonderful time. If you know where I can purchase Lady Liberty, please let me know! I've been looking for her for quite a while.

[@VictoriasCraftyRoom]

Great video and retreat update!! I bet Stitchville was overwhelming!! Great haul. Looking forward to more!!!

[@brendaholsman4560]

Just a joy watching your video! And your message at the end was so meaningful. Thank you for that.

[@farmgirldrygoods]

Ugh!!! I love seeing your faces but it makes me miss you!!! You two are so much fun!! Hope to see you both very soon!!

[@moosemom2010]

Thank for sharing everything. Looks like the retreat was a good one💕💕

[@MistyPursel]

Hi Holly and Anita! It sounds like you had a fantastic time at the retreat and I am so happy for you! I love the gifts you received in the exchange. I think Betty Ulan is the Santa Claus of stitching. :) All of your haul is wonderful and that LK Special Edition Christmas chart is stunning! You're right, I was just stitching Rabbit Run (you'll love stitching it) and am close to starting Where There Are Bees. Take care and have a wonderful holiday and end to the school year!

[@careyray5792]

I think y’all are going to the same retreat in Osage that my friend and I are going to. What are y’all bringing to finish? I’m starting to get a little panic stricken that I won’t have the right supplies and such. YIKES!!!

[@deehansen5490]

Do you happen to be going to the Silver Needle Retreat in July? There are 3 of us going from the St. Charles, MO area to Silver Needle & can't wait to get there! We are also attending the 2 finishing classes! I have almost all of the homework done! I sure hope this is the one you are attending! It would be fun to meet you in person! Love your videos!

[@sharonwurm2684]

So glad you had an amazing time at the retreat and best wishes for a great end to the school year! Thanks for sharing your stitching and have a wonderful Memorial Day!

[@jswart02]

Hi Ladies! It dosen't seem like it was that long ago that I was watching a video of you in your scarves and hats. 🙂 Enjoyed hearing about the retreat and seeing your haul. Have a great week!

[@annetteballard588]

Anxious to know what you think about the black Anchor floss! Do you happen to know WHERE you can purchase Anchor?

[@Amylovestoads]

Hi ladies! I love you both. Thank you for sharing everything. Happy stitching!!

[@trplohetski]

You two are such a joy! Wait Anita I think you stole from me!

[@kimberlyfath7519]

You keep appearing at the top of my home page and it’s as if you are saying “watch us!!!!” So I am

[@MarleneBush]

I just love you both so much....you bring so much joy to this community! The retreat was awesome, I agree, but a big part of it for me was having y’all as my table mates. Michelle certainly did an amazing job and I can’t wait to go back. What great patterns y’all bought...and I love the crows on that pattern. Not on all patterns but on that one they’re pretty. But cardinals would be pretty too. :) xxxooo Blessings, Marlene

[@shellellnh]

Please search on youtube "crow sledding down roof". I think you'll be happily surprised:)

[@MK-vp1rr]

First I have to agree with you ladies, Crows are horrible birds - I do not like them at all. I love Chickadees, Gold finches, Nuthatches, Warblers, etc, etc. But crows and ravens belong in horror movies only, not on beautiful cross stitch. That said, I love your videos! You always make me smile and laugh. Keep them coming, enjoy your summer vacation.
