FlossTube #4 My Favorite Embroidery Floss Organization, A Quote & A Question

[@leslieherbert5986]

just found you today and was quilting a quilt while I watched and listened. First you have a beautiful testimony! You encouraged me in so many ways, my relationship with God, my husband, my grown son, my stitching (I am a beginner) but thank you for it all! I will keep watching! hugs!

[@gingerlawson8460]

I did not get to see you on the date the YT came out, but you are truly have heart and I think all of us are a work in progress every day. You are right us mothers love our son and wish for the best for them, and we would like them to pick a person that is close to our mannerism as possible, so we need to keep working on being the best person possible. I have days I cry just thinking of what is going on in the world, like you said we are tired and need to step back and relax and have a good nights rest, to have a better out look on things. Stay Safe and see you on the #5 Floss tube, sorry I gave up on quilting when we had a shortage on material to sew with in my SHOPS during COVID and picked up CS again. So will see you on the floss tube side.

[@rebeccajourney3183]

The poem reminds me of my husband I lost 10+ years ago. He was my soul mate. While times are difficult, I am focused on keeping things positive. So I stay busy with my many projects and reorganizing! Finding strength through my faith!

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

Oh, I can only imagine how difficult that must be. I see my father struggling with the grief of missing my Mom. I'm glad you've got your faith and your stitching to keep you moving forward. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the poem!

[@mariawells8026]

Dear Bonnie, Your videos have been so inspiring and very beautiful! I have loved how you share so deeply from your heart and Christian spirit. It resonates with me and it's lovely to hear these lovely videos in harsh times. So, thank you very much for everything you share with us!! God bless you deeply.

[@bonniewalker6340]

My dear thank you! It is just ‘me’, sometimes o am too direct and it throws people off. At 80, o am just letting me be me for my remaining days. I do love God, and His Truth.

@mariawells8026….my last comment supposed to be for you.

You know for sure how loved your new hoop is.

[@conniekellett3051]

Loved, loved loved your video. I love the insight to your life, the cross stitch is a bonus!!!

[@LouXstitchAficionado]

Your beautiful quilts reflect the spirit and grace of your family. You are to be respected for your not being afraid to share your feelings and faith. God is with you and us, but also never fear, we as a community have your back, and I appreciate you greatly. Keep safe, well, valiant and joyful. Happy stitching from Eastern 🍁 Canada 🇨🇦

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

Louise Monnette oh man you can’t know how much your comment means to me at this moment! To know that you have my back… I know the opposition will come up but I also know we all have a choice of who we want to connect with and I love the connection that you and others like you have with me no matter the distance of miles..... we are connected at the heart.

[@candigordon3591]

Thank you for sharing your story. God bless your heart. I am so happy you have your faith keeping you strong. I, too, went through a rough period in my first marriage. I discovered cross stitch which helped a couple of years after my divorce. I didn’t believe in divorce but all my prayers were answered. I was shocked that divorce was what the answer was to my prayers. I am a very sensitive person and my feelings are exposed most of the time. I will never change. Keep sharing your beautiful stitching. I took up quilting when I was informed of a grand baby was on the way. I started quilting in 2006 and gave up cross stitching because quilting bit me hard. After finding floss tube this year, I got back into cross stitching and I can do both!! I wish I had discovered cross stitching in 2018 after having several surgeries due to colon cancer and having mesh removed from a previous surgery that was placed in 2013. I could have done a lot of cross stitching over the year of recouping! I was cancer free after my surgery and didn’t have to have chemo therapy or a colostomy. I was very lucky. If I have to have any abdominal surgery, I will have to go to Cleveland Clinic. My numbers have gone up since the surgery and I am having a PET scan October 8th to check for cancer. I would appreciate any prayers! Looking forward to seeing all you videos.❤️🙏🏼❤️

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

Candi Gordon I’m glad you are finding comfort in stitching. It’s such a soothing thing to have something beautiful you are creating with your hands. I’m glad you’re another sensitive friend. We can have that extra touch to be aware of other’s feelings and have a soft word or smile to share that others may not have noticed. There are so many lovely stitching options, it’s hard to find time for the ones I want to do, it seeing other ladies share them on Flosstube is fun as well. Let me know how your test results come out, you will continue to be in my prayers.

[@tracychandler5336]

God bless you sweet lady! I am praising The Lord with you that you and your husband are still together and that God brought you through that terrible time and you are better for it! I too have been with my husband since we were 15. Been married 36 years. Love your videos and your heart ❤️

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

Oh thank you! Yes, God’s Grace and His Word is the only thing we can count on to never change. Sounds like you’ve got a good, long-time relationship as well. Go’s bless you and thank you for your encouragement!

[@jeanjankovich9779]

Hi Bonnie! I very much enjoy watching your videos! I too am a cross stitcher, quilter, and dabble in beading too! I'm in the process of moving later this week to W Kentucky and am so excited! Enjoyed your haul -- the Weeks linen is so pretty! I also went thru a very difficult time in my life and became very depressed and suicidal -- this was about 16 years ago now for me. My husband and sons were very verbally abusive and rather than going to couples therapy my husband wanted a divorce. I also lost my mom a couple of years ago so each November is difficult for me too! My sons no longer speak to me so its been a tough road for me. I'm glad that you and your husband are still together - divorce has become too easy here in our country but for me it was the only way to get out of a very difficult situation. But life is good now with all my hobbies and friendships gained through sharing these beautiful crafts! Your mom's quilts and memories are precious -- especially those teddy bears! Be well and look forward to your next video!

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

Jean Jankovich I’m glad you found restoration for your life and a way to keep moving forward in living a rich life. Hobbies have been so helpful for me and a great way to connect with other ladies who share my passions in stitching, bracelet making and gardening. How wonderful that you can move and still keep this beautiful community of Flosstube and the friendships made no matter where you live. I mentioned the book Boundaries by Cloud and Townsend to another commenter. If you haven’t read it, I think it would be helpful as you keep healing from the abuse in the past and continue to see that choices they made are their responsibility and you are wise to separate and protect yourself. Thank you for sharing your heart and I hope you continue to find joy in sharing time with me in my Sewing Room.

[@tracychandler5336]

Wow, thank you so much for the Bible verse, I needed that!

[@kaywhaley6694]

I like the real you, tears and all. The poem reminds me of my husband. I lost him 10 years ago after being married for 44 years. I had know him since I was 12. It has been 10 years and life is not getting easier. He was my strength and days are difficult without him.

[@cindygaudet1390]

Kay Whaley hugs Kay... I pray it somehow gets easier... we just had our 43rd and I can’t imagine, my heart breaks for you.💜

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

Kay Whaley oh sweet lady thank you for sharing your thoughts and your heart! I am finding so much value in the depth of the comments that I’m reading in the deep connection with women who are similar to myself. I am so sorry for the loss of your husband but I am also glad that you had him for all those years! It helps me treasure my marriage the good times and the challenges because he has been my boyfriend my husband and my best friend. God bless you for your encouragement and I am so glad you’re part of my little stitching family here where we can connect no matter the distance between us.

[@jodyclemens4992]

Thank you for sharing your faith. God is so good,,,, I do not know where I would be today without him. Love all you do quilting, needlework ... I do all the same and also got back into cross stitch about 4 years ago now.. I too stopped in the early 90’s. I am so thankful for your videos and the time you share with us in this community. God Bless

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

Jody Clemens thank you so much for watching and commenting and sharing your encouragement to me. I am amazed at how quickly I have gotten drawn into this Crosstitch world but I love the floss tube Community it’s truly beautiful!

You make the most beautiful quilts! I just love watching you. You are the cutest and most genuine person. Keep up the great work!

[@Johanne131313]

You are wonderful. A breath of fresh air. I am a newbie first time watching you and it feels like you are a long time friend. From what you said about Your life, your hobbies your marriage I am on the same road as so many Of us has at 1 time. Been married 46 yrs in a few days. Had a tuff time at a spot being married so young and …… their ways ( men) but we are strong same had to hit bottom to get better. But listen we did and we will never get down there again. We learned and God helps us. We do need to ask him for His help. Enough of this anyway just loved all info you share. I also just restarted after loosing my Mom And had dad 5 yrs with us was a good thing to quilt and keep mind busy. Loosing a mom is the worst. Now restarted to do cross stitching after over 50 Yrs of not doing it. Having fun just my first one. It’s a start. Enjoy relax and love every moment of connecting with nature through our patterns we pick. Take care and keep smiling. God bless. Johanna

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

Johanne, I'm so glad you came to visit with me in my videos and found so much that we share in common!! You found me in an older video when I lived in California.....now, we are enjoying living in Colorado. It was a very long and challenging transition with lots of bumpy times as well as joyful times. I am now living in the town my parents moved to in the 90s. Some days are hard because she's not here and my Dad died almost 2 years ago. I go to her old quilt guild and so many of the sweet ladies there were her friends. Hope you come by and visit with me again. I've been quilting for the past several months and did several quilt videos, but I picked up my cross stitch again a few weeks ago and am just taking a break from stitching to catch up on comments.

[@bonniewalker6340]

So happy I discovered you last night. 40 years for me since I picked up a cross stitch needle. I loved your demo on lights and CS Stands. I go today to Joanne’s to see what they have, 50% off today. I needed your knowledge. I just turned 80.

[@JennyFleming]

Yay for gardening! Yes get everything cleaned up this Fall. This past week we spread 100 bags of mulch out in the backyard. And I know I need to rip out all my zinnias because of powdery mildew, but it makes me so sad to see them gone! My first thought regarding your quote is the ultimate question of, “what is love”? If love (and the pain associated with it) is better than any other pleasure, than how do we acquire it? I’d say that God is love, thus God grants us the ultimate pleasure in Him. Now how it would be painful, I do not know. May as God sanctifies us and we feel pain as we die to our sinful nature? Thank you for such an honest video. We are all real people with real lives and real struggles and real sorrows. Your previous garden was beautiful. And I’m sure your current one will be too. #beautyforashes I get so excited seeing you flip through your floss away bags. So many pretty threads. I reinforce my split floss away bags with clear shipping tape.

[@paolaodonnell6449]

Hi Bonnie, my name is Paola, love the way that you're presenting yourself. When I get tired I cry too, so, you're are not alone. Love seen you're future projects, and those quilts!!! Wow. Happy stitching, stay safe.

I know my style is not for everybody but that’s OK we all will find our comfort level and I am glad you’re part of my stitching family!

Oh well, I also don't have gardening time or energy available :) Your mother's quilts are just awesome! And I was thrilled to see you put the Bible verse at the end of your links!!!!! You are now on that little bell thing so I will get notice when you upload again - so until then be blessed! Linda

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

Oh thank you!! I was just out there watering my sad and crispy garden. After work tomorrow, I'm going to need to do more trimming. That gives the garden a chance to rest and come back even in the winter months here.

I love the fact that you share your very personal life experiences with us. I am grateful you have Christ in your life, because God will cradle you and hold you up thru any challenges you are going thru. And thankfully he is always there beside us to encourage and protect us, all we need to do is ask and then listen. I am adding you to my prayer list, I hope that is ok with you. Now about cross stitch. I also use the bag system. I use FlossAway bags. I have been using that system for a very long time, I’m 69 and I’ve been cross stitching, embroidering and crewel embroidered since I was about 14. I am also a big Thirty-One fan too!!! You are awesome and I admire how you tackle life! Keep up your faith and God Bless you.

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

Yes and yes thank you for putting me on your prayer list I am so amazed at the connection of so many stitchers and Christian sisters out there. I just saw the floss away bags and noticed they were just a little bit different size do they also have the two holes on the bottom so you can do a double ring?

[@pamlindley2747]

HI Bonnie, Lov Lov your Flosstube and quilting videos. I myself have been a quilter for approximately five years. And used to cross stitch like 30 years ago. I was watching quilting videos like yourself and heard someone say Flosstube. I think it was Anna G from Quilt Roadies. I said Flosstube? what is that well just over a year and a half I my self have fell down the rabbit hole. I also lov the primitive and reproduction fabrics. I just finished a civil war quilt called "Tavern Blues". Keep up the awesome Job. Looking forward to more videos!!!! Timm

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

Timm Isn’t it funny how you find something you never knew existed and then you think how did I ever live without it? I’m so glad you found your way into my sewing room and connected with another quilter\stitcher new floss tube lover and someone who loves the old primitive style! Thanks for watching!

[@logcabinstitcher7274]

Cathy J Glad you get the joy of several awesome hobbies. I like always having something ready to stitch on,so when I’m tired I can just sit and stitch. Having several hobbies gives us the ability to do what we want. Love it that you’re a quilter, too. If you have time, I have 3 quilting videos already on my channel.

[@Mamasmovietime]

You are so genuine and gracious. Tears, compassion, love, strength, cross stitching and quilting! Who could ask for more. I feel like I was meant to watch this video this day.

After I did that video and I was so raw from being so tired, I thought about redoing it and decided not to because this is the REAL me! I’m glad you found a connection with that. I think there is such a push for us to feel like we have to have it all together to share online, but that’s not reality! Life isn’t scripted and it gets messy sometimes, but we can choose Joy nevertheless! So glad you shared your comment with me!

Love everything you show. I try every craft and master none - that's ok for me. I recently learnt quilting, now punch needle and cross stitch but with all that's going on in 2020 I'm glad to flit around. One thing about perfect gardens is it's transitory. Craft is more permanent for equal effort! Look forward to the quilts. Thanks For sharing Jen from Snowdonia UK x

Jenifer Jones I’m so glad you found your way into my Sewing Room! Actually, since I do other crafts in there I have thought of calling it my Studio or my Den. Lots of crafts and hobbies are a great way to never be bored! Sometimes I don’t have the patience for one hobby or another, but if there’s something to grab and have ready to work on, then I’m a happy woman. Sometimes a simple single crochet blanket to give a way is my best option so I don’t have to think too much. It’s so cool that you live so far away, yet you’re here visiting with me, specially during these hard days!

Wow - I love your Big Tote From 31. That is nice and big. I need a Huge Basket or something to hold all of my Plastic Vinyl Zipper Project Bags that has my Current WIPS in them. I keep one WIP in each of my Plastic Vinyl Zipper Bags that I buy from Aamzon. Each WIP has its own Plastic Storage Floss Compartment Box with its own threads for that particular project. I have used the ring method in the past for each of my projects but I have a bad shoulder Blade area in my left shoulder and it will aggravate my Muscles when I have to keep and shutting the rings all of the time so I no longer use them. This is why I use the Floss Boxes. Looking forward to your next Floss Tube Video. Take Care & Happy Stitching ❤️XX❤️

"Love is not love which alters when it alteration finds, or bends with the remover to remove. Oh, no, it is an ever fixed mark. . . ". Wm. Shakespeare, a sonnet the number I cannot remember. That is my favorite sonnet, and somewhere I have it stored in a book on a shelf. We studied it in high school, and that is all I can recite from memory now. All I can say at this moment in time is that we are given the ability to love by our Creator. He instills in all of us the ability to have emotions. Some are flawed by messed up genes, but for the most of us,the emotions are there to be developed. I cannot believe that I stumbled onto your first Flosstube and have stayed. I watch many videos. Some are only okay, some are really quite nice, and then there are those that sort of blow you away. Yours is the blowing away kind. I won't say any more here in thiis public forum. Love your stitching and your beautiful quilts. I used to use floss bags, and I just purchased a bunch more, because I want to reorganize my fiber. It's all in a very large mess right now.

Also, it is so refreshing to hear you refer to us as ladies rather than the constant blending of “YOU GUYS “ as this term is constantly overused in everyday conversations.

[@cathylounsbury7707]

Hi Bonnie!! To me, the poem was saying that even the pain of love is all part of love. You have to have loved in order to feel the pain from it and even that pain is better than not loving at all. Which of course reminds me of the quote, “Better to have loved and lost than not loved at all.” I am not a poetry person, either, so I may be way off here. Stephanie of Lindy Stitches reads poetry a lot at the end of her floss tubes. She would probably understand it just fine. 😄. I love all your project bags, totes and baskets! They are wonderful. I use flossaway bags for all my overdyed cottons, but keep my DMC on bobbins in number order in 4 of the floss boxes. I have done it that way since 1980 and it seems to be working for me. Hope you aren’t as busy this next week and you get more stitching time. Take care and many blessings to you until next time! 🐝🌼🐿🍁🦔🍂🦉🍁🍂🍂🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸😻

Cathy Lounsbury I love your insight and thoughts about the poem. It’s interesting to think about it from different aspects. I think we see things through the experiences we have had and the current emotional place we are in. Thank you for sharing! I see how keeping the DMC on the bobbin cards in number order can be a benefit. I was looking through my DMC wheel to try a conversion to oversized and I had a hard time finding the DMC because I have mine by color. I decided I need to get a DMC color chart since I don’t have all of them, but I’ve got lots of overdue data and have more on the way.

Debbie Cook oh I am so glad you were a quilter and a stitcher as well. Needle and thread just feel so comfortable in my hand! I know you’re gonna love the next video and I need to get that uploaded after I type in all the notes.
