[@daisykaysprimitives]

Hi Janet, thanks so much.

[@gwouellette]

Good to see you again. I think I told you this before but you are up there in my top ten favourite stitchers. You are informative and easy to listen to. I love your style and your little seasonal home tours are so enjoyable. Don’t ever change… great philosophy! Just be you…

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Thanks so very much for the encouragement and support, I really do appreciate you!

Beautiful stitching! Love those saltbox houses. It is neat to watch you stitch & decorate your home with the beautiful stitching. Thanks for sharing. Happy stitching! ❤️🧵🪡

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Thank you! I enjoy seeing the things Ive stitched and rotating them out seasonally keeps it interesting and not so overwhelming. Thanks for stopping by.

[@barbarabraun6412]

I enjoy your videos very much. I had to smile when you mentioned you are close to completing your black sampler wall. I look forward to seeing a photo of that. I also agree with you that we are all unique and should be proud of who we each are❤. Thank you for kindly sharing your stitching and home.

[@daisykaysprimitives]

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Hi Barbara, thank you! I want to see all the things Ive stitched but not all at once, rotating them seasonally keeps it interesting. Thanks for stopping by.

[@carlarigel252]

Thanks for sharing! Love your projects and videos.

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Thank you Carla.

[@stitchingincostume]

Loved stitching (and ripping) with you today ! Your saltboxes are adorable and that Sampler stocking is high on my list of must starts! I love the "be yourself" quote... so timely. Have a wonderful day!🌷🌷🌷

[@barbaralewis3093]

Love watching your videos and beautiful stitching! I have one of my mom's old swing frames, so it gave me inspiration to see what you are doing with yours. I love all the cute saltboxes! Thanks for sharing!

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Thank you Barbara, Im sure you will find something just perfect for your frame and make it wonderful. I love them. Enjoy!

[@sarabrunsvold2461]

Good to see you!! Love the swing frame and with the sampler in it, it’s perfect!! All of your projects are beautiful and fit perfectly in your home. I’m sure the black sampler wall is perfection as well! Hope we get a peak of it!! Have a great rest of the week!!! God bless.

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Hi Sara, will for sure share the Black Sampler wall when I get it all put together. I'm excited to share it with you all. Thanks for stopping by and watching, blessings to you also!!

[@narrowgate1306]

Beautiful work! I look forward to your videos very much!!

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Thank you very much!

[@sandyevenson-hagen370]

I was so glad to get the notification that you had a new floss tube ready for viewing! I’ve missed you! You projects are beautiful and so inspiring. The Sampler Stocking is going to be so great, I can’t wait to see it finished! Have a great rest of your week!

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Thank you very much Sandy. I appreciate you! The stocking really is a nice stitch, we have been so busy on weekends with projects of all sorts I haven't spent as much time on it as I like. I'm hoping I do it justice when finishing it, a bit intimidated to do that but will persevere. Thanks so much for watching!

[@tammywhaley4342]

Loved the video-you’re swing frame is darling!! And I love the Saltboxes!!!

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Thank you Tammy, Im pleased its all coming together. Thanks for stopping by!

[@debimiller7572]

As you mentioned there are many new flosstubes, that being said I still gravitate to my favorites and you are at the top of the list. Thank you for your time.

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Thank you very much Debi for your support and encouragement. I truly do appreciate you. I'm very flattered.

[@marilynferlitsch2003]

Kristy I love your saltbox stitching. I have those patterns printed and just haven’t started...need to do that! Live your words of wisdom. Blessings, Marlene

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Thank you Ms Marlene, many blessings to you.

[@cindygaudet1390]

Hi! Loved it all. And I enjoy doing Melisa’s houses as well. I finally found a tiered tray i like and could afford, so now am stitching her houses for my dough bowl.

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Hi Cindy! Thanks! Ohh I love tiered trays. Enjoy those little houses.

[@darlenewiebe7577]

I love watching your flosstube! Your style is beautiful!

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Thanks very much!

Like your accomplishments for your wall and finishes.

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Thanks so much Linda!

[@deborahburlingame1141]

There might be more floss tubers now but you have so many unique finishes and ideas- I’ll be sticking with you! Always enjoy your videos. Thank you.

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Thanks so much Deborah, very flattered.

[@dollyyarborough2918]

Hello from NC Kristy, love your finishes...the Saltbox pillows are so pretty, thank you for sharing. The Sampler is gorgeous.

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Thank you so much!

[@julievanderheide5794]

Great job Kristie!!

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Thank you!!

[@cathigainey6343]

Always a good day when your flosstubes pop up! I tried pinning a piece one time but didn't like it so switched back to lacing. Regardless, I think yours in the swing frame looks fabulous! But then again, all your finishes are fabulous and perfectly prim!

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Thanks so much Cathi!!

[@debbiereynolds9276]

Always a great time having coffee with you, your Sampler Stocking is priceless, beautiful colors. I just copied Michelle’s “Ewe House” today and getting ready to start it, she is so generous with her beautiful patterns❤️ Thanks for sharing WDW colors as I am trying to add to my stash of floss which is mostly DMC. Looking forward to Spring and seeing your next video!!!🌻🍀🌟

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Hi Debbie, thanks for stopping by and visiting. Come on spring!!!

[@keepsakestitches7591]

Looking forward to seeing your black sampler wall and the dining room wall of samplers. You have been a busy girl. Your sampler in the swing frame is beautiful and the frame is an amazing find. I have a smaller one and sure have enjoyed the sampler in that. Have done a number of the salt box houses from Pnker'n Punkin. She is so generous and I have a notebook full of her designs with the intention of stitching almost all of them. Love all your finishes. Always look forward to your videos. Thanks so much for sharing all your eye candy. Norma in Boise, ID

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Hi there Norma, thank you for spending some time with me and always being so supportive.

[@appleblossomfamilyfarm3553]

Lovely stitching! I am doing the saltboxes from Pinker N' Punkin as well - they are so fun to stitch.

[@daisykaysprimitives]

They are lots of fun, enjoy. Thanks very much.

[@bonnierusch7275]

I always enjoy your videos never miss a one. Your great inspiration. I just stitched my first pin drum and made the other smaller one to go with by blackbird designs. I love your decorating ideas as well keep them coming. Bonnie from NJ.

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Thanks very much Bonnie

[@karenjohnson8177]

More inspiring stitching...and I LOVE that wool piece above your couch. Looks like a MB design? Seems like your new rotation is working well. You will have lots of smalls to add to your seasonal decorations! I impressed you already have your sampler walls complete. Happy stitching.

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Hi Karen, thank you. Yes the wool piece is Strawberry Thief from Maggie Bonanomi. Her shop is not far from me and I purchased it there. A favorite treasure.

[@cmdebi]

I’ve like being me too. Took me a long time to come into my own but I got there. Loved seeing everything. That swing frame - I’m swooning over it. I found one in a thrift shop. Hubby needs to do some repairs on it.. I give you major credit for doing your own framing. That is something I haven’t even attempted to master. Thanks for sharing everything

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Hi Debi, I don't do a good job with my framing but I get it done well enough to suit me so I can enjoy the things Ive stitched. Thanks for stopping by and watching.

[@nevadastitcher]

I always enjoy visiting with you and seeing your beautiful stitching! I love your display of Melissa’s saltboxes! ❤🧵🪡✂️

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Hi there! Thank you so much! Im enjoying stitching them and seeing them all snuggled together. So adorable.

[@kankerdoodleb9149]

Second time watching and love soaking up the prim vibe! You've inspired me to have a Wooly Wednesday too. I've been using wool to back my little pinkeeps but that's not enough. Pulling out my Maggie B patterns for next week. Happy Stitching Kristy 🪡

[@daisykaysprimitives]

That's great! Let me know which one you choose. Thanks so much for watching.

[@gleehanson4775]

I enjoy your flosstubes. I get it, it's hard to know what to do with all the stitching we want to do. My walls are pretty full, several wooden bowls, baskets and a tiered tray full of smalls, etc. Plus one has to be careful giving any stitching away as so many don't care for it nor have an appreciation for the expense or time involved . What to do...I don't hardly know but I keep stitching 😁

[@daisykaysprimitives]

I don't think it will stop me either Glee. Thanks for watching.

[@shandastitchinginidaho]

Bravo, my PPS!!! Your philosophy at the end: ‘Be Yourself - Everyone Else is Already Taken’ is also the quote I have on my Pinterest Home Page. Wise words indeed! I love it when Kristy is Kristy❤. You have great taste and beautiful stitching projects.

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Thanks very much my friend, we share many things in common. Wish I could sew and quilt like you, maybe someday when I grow up!! Hugs!

[@lindamelz242]

Good to see you again. I love your swing frame finish !!! Melisa is so talented an So generous with her designs and I adore her Saltboxes- great color choices. Beautiful wips and such cute names for each stitching day especially Thumper Thursday . Have a Happy weekend.

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Hi Linda, thanks so much. Im just so pleased with the saltboxes, love seeing them all snuggled together and cant wait to add to them.

[@maryellenmcinnis7693]

Love your Ann Pegg and the frame! Thought of you and your tombstone angels when I watched Little Creek Needleworks in Canton Ohio after market first IG reel. I didn’t catch the designer or chart name but there was a new chart with two of the tombstone angels on a chart. I love the colors and feel of stitches you are currently working on and finished. Throughly enjoyed the flosstube today. Maybe it’s because I’m sitting on a settle that’s the same as yours! Our tastes are about the same, I maybe more colonial but not super high Colonial. Love the old worn and loved feel of things. Thanks for the visit.

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Hi Mary Ellen, thanks for stopping by. I will check out those tombstone angel charts, thanks for the suggestion.

[@PriviesandPrimsNeedlecrafts]

I especially like your Christmas stitch. I'm in Lancaster County PA for the week, visiting my son, and I went to two local needlework shops today. Lots of great patterns to choose from!

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Hi Doreen, Im envious, that is an area of the country Id love to visit. Can't wait to see which charts you found. Ive been on a Pineberry Lane kick lately, they have a website also and sell PDFs. Check them out.

[@PriviesandPrimsNeedlecrafts]

@@daisykaysprimitives I was actually looking at their patterns yesterday. I did one of their freebies at Christmas, in uncounted cross stitch, just before I decided to do the counted cross stitch.

[@sheilalovesgreg3489]

Ohhh Kristy! My PPS! I love that you sit in a different location at times so we can see your beautiful home decor. So inspiring. Your sampler looks wonderful in that swing frame, good choice! The bunnies are multiplying and they look cute. It sounds like you have a great plan for a rotation. I’m such a monogamous stitcher. I think that would drive me crazy but I’m glad it works for most of you. I keep forgetting you have an Etsy shop, so I’m glad you mentioned it. I’ll have to go over and look at your frame and your stitching and everything else you put in there that’s prim goodness. Great video my friend!!!! 💞

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Thank you friend for the support and encouragement. I wish I could be a monogamous stitcher and as fast as you!!

[@sheilalovesgreg3489]

@@daisykaysprimitivesyou be you, the wonderful friend & stitcher that you are. If you were monogamous, you wouldn’t have very many flosstube videos, because you wouldn’t have much to show each time. 💞

[@ozarkmtnstitcher]

Maybe you need a sampler ladder like Ginger is doing. I like Thumper Thursday. I’m pulling out some Spring things I want to stitch now too. Thanks for sharing as always!

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Thanks for watching, happy spring stitching.

[@darleenbumgardner5179]

You sure are organized! I just stitch. I have wall to wall stitching. I stitch smalls now most of the time. I give alot away. Good video!

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Thank you Darleen.

[@texstylust]

I really love how Ann Pegg turned out. She’s been on my list since I first started stitching and say Carol show her. I don’t think I’ve seen a swing frame that large! Lucky find! If you’re running out of black sampler wall space, maybe snippets or black sampler smalls for a bowl nearby? Great to see you again. I need to get in gear and get another FT up! I just got my new phone, but am reluctant to use it until a case comes. Soon though!

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Thank you Lori, how are those sweet kitties, can't wait to see them in your FT some time and catch up on all your creations.

[@texstylust]

@@daisykaysprimitives They’re growing so fast!

[@amandaaskew7606]

Hey Kristy! I was thinking about you this morning, and how it was probably time for another video! Your Ann Pegg looks great in that frame! Love the Saltboxes! I think the spring green one is my fave out of the ones you have done, too. I love the bunny pieces!

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Hey there Amanda, thanks for thinking of me!! Im really enjoying the little saltbox stitches, so stinkin cute.

Thanks!

[@ContentedNeedleworkerKim]

Hi friend! Your swing frame is fabulous! I just used one gifted to me to finish my latest bird! Pinning, ugh! Lots of mine are just pinned with six and waiting for me to maybe someday get back to them 🤣

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Hi Kim! Ann is still floppy in her frame, Im dragging my feet!!

[@kimkincaid5257]

I was sorting my black and my red samplers the other day, and ran across Mary Ann. I told myself that it would be my next black sampler after I finish Be Not a Dunce. I'll be working on my Stacy Nash Turkey Hollow and Gathering of the Greens for WIPGO this month. I may start O Tannenbaum if I finish Gathering. I love seeing your progress and Shanda's, too, on that. I ordered the box last week from Beach Cottage.

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Hey Kim! So glad you found the box for O Tannenbaum. It really is a fun stitch. Good WIPGO calls for the month. Thanks for stopping in!! Happy Stitching.

[@susansaunders397]

LOVE your videos, & hearing about what you’ve been working on! Curious to know what Saltbox you’ve chosen as your next. I did Dorothy Mae in February & haven’t started my March piece yet, but it’s Katie Anne’s. Still debating if I want to darken up the house a bit or change color. Can’t wait for your next video! Happy Stitching ❤️🪡🧵

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Thank you Susan! I chose Aunt Bea's Summer Home and will keep it mustard colored. Think need that color in the mix of them all. Enjoy!

[@charj57]

Thumper Thursdays😂😂 Cute but hit my funny bone. I do like the ABC & 123 rabbits.

[@daisykaysprimitives]

I know, silly huh? I couldnt think of anything else, but it stuck. Thanks for stopping by and chuckling with me.

[@jeannefiscus7098]

I missed the designer of the saltbox stitches. Can u share that. I enjoy your videos and your decorating. Thanks again

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Thank you, they can be found on Pinker n Punkin Quilting blog.

[@barbarahaynes7036]

Love the way you've named each day, especially Thumper Thursday! I'm going to try something similar. Can I ask about how many hours a day you would stitch? 🙂

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Hi Barbara, thanks very much. My stitching time varies but on average M-F I probably get between 4-6 hours to stitch and weekends can be more, just depends on what we have going on.

[@darlenedeondesigns2844]

Be yourself, everyone else is taken…love that! I really love your little tray of #pinkernpunkin salt boxes, so cute! I know you said you didn’t know what the fabrics were but do you know the count? They look much smaller than mine. I might have to try a smaller one too.

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Hi Darlene, thanks so much. All are stitched on 36 count linen. Thanks for stopping by.

[@reginaholloway2027]

Your stitching is beautiful!!! As usual! I have seen where people use an old ladder and lean it against the wall and drape cross stitch pieces on that. I don’t know if that would work in your house but it looks primitive. 🪡🧵

[@daisykaysprimitives]

Thank you Regina.
