Love the video! It was so fun to see the special relationship between you and your sister, and I really enjoyed the tutorial for the fabric wrap.

[@HandsOnDesign]

Thank you so much!!

[@cindyperez9964]

I really enjoyed this video. Thanks for showing us how to wrap a hoop. I’m not a fan of the plain hoops for finishing. This is a great option. It was fun having your sister on.

[@HandsOnDesign]

Glad that you enjoyed the video ❤️

[@HandsOnDesign]

Our other sister is blonde!!

[@phyllislundy8803]

So nice to see Karen! I knew right away that you are sisters. You have a lot the same mannerisms, expressions and laugh. I liked what I saw on that sneak peek...love the watermelons! Such a cool idea with passing that lovely quilt around creating memories.

[@HandsOnDesign]

It’s funny how much we are alike in our mannerisms (& a little scary 🤣)

[@parrdeb1]

Love meeting your sister virtually! You have a great family. The sneak peak is soooo pretty. I love the sneak peak!

[@HandsOnDesign]

Thank you so much!!

[@janeandmolly308]

[@HandsOnDesign]

Thank you so much!

[@critterstitcher8257]

Holy cow! You and your sister look so much a like!

[@HandsOnDesign]

😊❤️

[@twotallstitchers]

Really enjoyed seeing you and your sister together - ask her if she ever goes to Capitol Quilts in Gaithersburg, MD - it’s a great shop! Thanks for the tutorial too!

[@HandsOnDesign]

Thank you 😊

[@jacquelineboyd1269]

Thanks ladies. Enjoyed the video

[@HandsOnDesign]

Thank you 😊

[@donnadorman6673]

I love the watermelons.... can't wait!!!

[@HandsOnDesign]

They are fun! 🍉

[@evaeslami4453]

Loved this video. Perhaps, at some point, the three sisters can be together for a video! My daughter-in-law’s mother has n embroidered tablecloth which comes out for special gatherings. All present sign it, after which she embroiders the signatures, dates it and voila a memory for the future. That’s what your sister’s ‘tag’ reminded me of when seeing it. thanks for making my day!

[@HandsOnDesign]

Thank you 😊

[@hannamansfield2894]

LOVE it!!! Great and I love the little birds as well.

[@HandsOnDesign]

Thank you 😊

[@kaylaletz1911]

So excited for the hello summer! Loving my start on hello spring ❤️ Thank you!

[@HandsOnDesign]

You are so welcome!

[@pegmiller3101]

Oh my your sister is as beautiful as you are!! Absolutely could do the party game and listen and not be sure who was talking if we couldn’t see you!! Your manners and hand gestures are the same. And you both have same hairstyle and shape of glasses. Nothing bad by my comment here but you are both the same kind of crazy and goofy 🙃 I love it! Wish my sis and I were as close as you both are. Loved your tutorials. Would love to see your sister’s quilt with all those beautiful fabrics 😊

[@HandsOnDesign]

We are very aware how much our mannerisms are alike 🤣. I can’t wait either, she makes beautiful quilts ❤️

[@barbarawallin6162]

I loved the “sneak peak.” So darling! I love each pattern of that series. Thank you!

[@HandsOnDesign]

Thank you so much!

[@christinaderrico5159]

Great tutorial! Love that you two got together!💗

[@HandsOnDesign]

Thank you!! 😊

[@lisacicchetti9027]

love the design for summer!

[@HandsOnDesign]

[@crosstitcher2]

Love this...this sister does sound like you and you factor each other too. Love the quilt idea. Can’t wait to get the Summer pattern. Cyndi

[@HandsOnDesign]

Thank you 😊

[@kimezman8697]

Cathy, enjoyed visiting with you and Karen. The quilt idea is a great one.

[@HandsOnDesign]

Thank you 😊

[@ThreadtheNeedleStitchery]

Oh my goodness, you're family has very strong genes! There's no doubt that you are sisters, almost twins! I'm a sucker for a paisley print. That family quilt is so lovely. Our family does something similar with a table clothe. During the holidays this one table clothe comes out and you sign and date, then it gets stitched over to commemorate our family gatherings.

[@HandsOnDesign]

That's a great idea!

[@somerwest441]

Holy Moly! You guys so look sooo much a like! Such a loving family you got there. I Always enjoy your videos!

[@HandsOnDesign]

Thank you 😊

[@kathyhuff3406]

Sweet show. Hello Karen. A great present from you to Kathy.

[@HandsOnDesign]

Thank you 😊

[@jillstearns1452]

I love your patterns. Also, it is a small world, I have relatives that live in Sioux City and my mom was born there. Really enjoyed seeing your sister's haul. I Iive in Alaska now and have the same issues as your sister. No good quilt or cross stitch shops. Keep up the wonderful Flosstubes and patterns.

[@HandsOnDesign]

Wow, yes...small world!

[@twotallstitchers]

P.S. I absolutely love the idea of a traveling quilt that everyone signs 💗

[@HandsOnDesign]

Thank you 😊

[@beckydewald8720]

It would be really nice if both sisters. Oils come out this summer and do a video with you. Have a sister reunion! 👍

[@beckydewald8720]

Oops - I meant Could - don’t know where in the world “Oils” came from! 🤣😜

[@HandsOnDesign]

😊❤️

[@amandabush777]

Love the quilt idea!

[@HandsOnDesign]

It is...so glad it’s my turn ❤️

[@bonniegoad582]

You could be twins!!! Enjoying your video. 😊

[@HandsOnDesign]

😊 thank you

[@leslieobryan6103]

Great to meet your sister. You two could almost be twins! I don’t think I’ve seen your video with your other sister but I’ll have to go back to try to find it. Hope you have a wonderful Easter!

[@HandsOnDesign]

Thank you!

[@kathyhaymaker840]

My name is Kathy and my sisters name is Karen!! Great video!

[@beckydewald8720]

Wow! I could have sworn you and your sister were twins!!! I don’t know any siblings that are so identical!! I don’t have a sister and I’ve always been so jealous of girls that did. Always have a friend and someone to do stuff with. Your videos are always sooooo fun! Love them!!

[@HandsOnDesign]

Thank you 😊

[@marthajohnson3342]

So nice to meet your other Sister. I have an identical twin sister. TYFS the tutorial.

[@HandsOnDesign]

Thank you 😊

[@myralewis1714]

Oh my goodness, this is the best video. Nothing better than a sister. I took a double take ...... are they twins? Thanks for giving me warm and fuzzy feelings.❤

[@HandsOnDesign]

Thank you 😊

[@DeeAZstitcher]

Awesome keepsake quilt 💞

[@HandsOnDesign]

Thank you 😊

[@bgturman]

Y'all are awesome!

[@HandsOnDesign]

Thank you!!

[@HandsOnDesign]

Thank you 😊

[@suejameson1517]

How lovely! And i just tried the hoop in the ikea cell phone stand! Brilliant

[@HandsOnDesign]

Great idea!

[@robinaruzza2128]

Cathy, you are so lucky to have wonderful sisters....and yes, she sure looks like you just as your son Billy does!😀

[@HandsOnDesign]

Yes, no getting around the family resemblance!!🤣

[@jowahlgren2554]

💕💕sister love💕💕...can’t beat it!

[@HandsOnDesign]

That’s right!❤️

[@leannaobirek4649]

I love you, Cathy.

[@HandsOnDesign]

😊

[@518stitcher3]

OMG - I love that you did this with your sister. You could pass for twins - looks, laugh, mannerisms. My sister and I share many tears and always end up laughing because if she were still with us our mother would tell us to stop being babies!

[@HandsOnDesign]

Thank you ❤️

[@barbarabell6527]

It was so much fun watching you both. I also live in the Va. area I wonder how close we are! That is a great idea passing the quilt around the family. Happy Easter!

[@HandsOnDesign]

Happy Easter!

[@carolpelletier9877]

I love the idea of the Christmas quilt being passed among family members for a year. How do you decide who gets it next? I’d love to start this tradition with my family.

[@HandsOnDesign]

I don’t think there is a certain method to the order..just glad that it’s my turn 😊❤️

[@pamkahmann3833]

Loved watching this video. Isn’t it fun having a sister? Don’t know what I would do without mine. Luckily, we have always lived within about 15 to 20 minutes to each other.

[@HandsOnDesign]

You are fortunate to live so close!❤️

[@margie6534]

You and your sister are a hoot. I have three sisters and when we get together we joke and laugh the whole time. Would love to see you and both of your sisters some time.

[@HandsOnDesign]

Thank you ❤️

[@kris_cross_stitches5748]

Wow! You two could definitely be twins. So much alike.

[@HandsOnDesign]

🤣😊❤️

[@lorelei9393]

Y'all need to take this show on the road! LOL

[@HandsOnDesign]

🤣 thank you
