[@dollyyarborough2918]

Hello from NC Jackie…thank you for a wonderful “visit”…I hope Archie is all better real soon. Thank you for the meditation…and for allowing us, if for just a short time, to forget when the world makes no sense, and just lose ourselves in our needlework.

[@ComfortStitchingJackie]

Thank you! I really appreciate your kind words and thanks for watching. 💚

[@cherylcarlile7103]

Thank you for sharing your passion with us! Your channel has become my Sunday afternoon peaceful me time. Im a few episodes behind but just love your demeanor and all that you share! ❤❤

[@stephknight1123]

Wow! Thanks for the shoutout. Being a new Flosstuber has been great so far. Hoping to film again tomorrow. Really love hearing your journey with Bridget. I wish you luck in your endeavor.

[@ComfortStitchingJackie]

You’re welcome! I’m glad things are going well so far. You are a very prolific stitcher! So many beautiful projects. Enjoy! 😊

[@heartlandstitcher9825]

Thank you Jackie, for another video. Always a pleasure listening to all the interesting things you share and your beautiful stitching. Glad to hear Archie is doing well. And that you found the pj's to avoid the awful cone!! Beautiful ending of the video also. Happy birthday and new start!

[@ComfortStitchingJackie]

Thank you so much!

[@melvinamiller496]

First time watching. I watched it all, really liked your stitching on Bridget - just lovely. The last part of your video brought me to tears...not sure why... Thank you for a different perspective & experience. ❤

[@ComfortStitchingJackie]

Thanks so much for watching and sharing. I hope you’ll come back. 🩷

[@sandyevenson-hagen370]

Your videos are so beautiful. I feel that when I’m watching as I’m stitching I feel calm and relaxed, as if your whole video is a meditation. I enjoy the history that you share of the samplers you are stitching. The photos of the young girls from the 1800s are fascinating. The drive to learn more about Bridgett is very strong. I’m glad Archie is recovering well from his surgery, such a relief. Have a wonderful birthday! Cheers to a very special day! 🎂

[@ComfortStitchingJackie]

Thank you so much! Archie continues to improve every day. ☺️🩷

[@kimrothermel5454]

I really do love everything in your videos. Following your journey with Bridget and Antoinette, books that inspire you, recent purchases. But I especially enjoy the very end, when I put down my stitching, breathe deeply and look at your beautiful photos or close my eyes and listen to your soothing voice. Thank you for all of it! ❤

[@ComfortStitchingJackie]

Thank you so much! I’m especially pleased that you enjoyed the sacred spaces montage. I loved putting that together. 🩷

The alter picture you shared reminded me of your Cross Stitch Bridget piece. Again, it was a very nice time watching your video. Thanks Dorie 🐟

[@ComfortStitchingJackie]

Thank you, Dorie! That chapel with the altar ai showed was on one of the Orkney Islands. I loved that space. So beautiful. 🩷

[@annemousseau8757]

Thank you for Bridget story. I never was drawn to samplers but I bought some. One being Bridgett because of you.The pattern is very intimidating. I need to save up for the supplies. I want to stitch it just like you are with your color choices and fabric. Thank you for links you always post. The story has drawn me in.

[@ComfortStitchingJackie]

You are so welcome! I’m glad to know you’ve been inspired to try something new and a bit outside your comfort zone. You can do it if you decide that you can. 🧡🍁🍂

[@suzannemoffitt137]

Love catching up with you, your stitching is beautiful.

[@ComfortStitchingJackie]

Thank you so much! ☺️

[@SherryGary100]

I so look forward to your video's. This one was no exception. I am a history fanatic and love to hear all about your research into the Power's piece. I am also a follower on Trisha Ngyuen and saw the exhibit by the DAR on her video. I wish I could see it in person. Thank you for the pictures of the sacred places. When I was in Ireland last year, I made a point of attending a Vespers service at Christ Church Cathedral in Dublin. It is something that I will remember for the rest of my life.

[@ComfortStitchingJackie]

Thank you, and thanks so much for sharing that memory of your time in Ireland. Lovely. 🩷

[@julievanderheide5794]

Beautiful video again. Love your quiet times with us, love your research updates on B. Power, and love your stitching and everything you share with us. Thabk you so much! So glad your sweet puppy is doing so well. Happy Birthday to you!!

[@ginadeblase4448]

Happy to hear that Archie is doing well! I was able to order the Julia Rachel De La Mare sampler, but I'm going to have to wait a bit for it to ship. That's fine, because there are plenty WIPS to keep me busy! Currently stitching the Lone Eagle Sampler from Needlework Press and G. Leger 1898 from Reflets de Soie. Love French inspired samplers! The tortoise shell scissors are very pretty! I work at Hobby House so I know these scissors as well as the mother of pearl. Couldn't go wrong with either choice. They sold quickly! I hope you'll take us along on your linen dyeing adventure! As always, I so enjoy your videos!

[@ComfortStitchingJackie]

Thank you! You’ve got some wonderful WIPS that you are working on. How wonderful that you get to be surrounded by so much inspiration every day at your job! Hobby House is a bucket list shop for me. One day I’ll make it there! I will try to get some pictures of the linen dying experience if I can. 😊

[@rosesells5609]

Well I ordered Bridget! Thank you for enabling me to get it! Can’t wait to start! Love your videos!

[@ComfortStitchingJackie]

Have fun! ☺️

[@jeanakimball5691]

Thank you for taking the time to share yourself, your stitching, and your thoughts with us. As a career quiltmaking teacher and designer I had similar curiosity and research into quilts made in the past. My favorite era was the 1840s and my medium was appliqué. Often my designs included elements and sometimes were copies of quilts from the era. When actually stitching these things you begin to “know and understand the mind of the original maker. You are experiencing the same thing with Bridget; you are stitching alongside her and begin to have an emotional connection and understanding of the person. It is a very satisfying experience. One last comment. One of my dearest friends was a devout Catholic. She always referred to herself as a “Irish Catholic” with pride in her voice, as if being Irish and Catholic elevated her status as a doer and believer. (Her last name was McNally.) She demonstrated the things she believed and practiced in ways that proved her faith through kindness and her willingness to serve those in need. I never asked her why the “Irish” addition to her self-description and I now wish I had. Maybe you could explore that reference for your own edification.😊

[@ComfortStitchingJackie]

Thanks so much for sharing! I really appreciated your perspective coming from a different form of needlework. 🩷

[@greggsbeckymoore349]

I just love your KZbin channel! I learn more about myself during the video but more about stitching, as well. I'm not a sampler stitcher, but I'm learning about it from you. I appreciate you taking the time to impart what you're learning and stitching, so thank you.

[@ComfortStitchingJackie]

I'm so glad! Thanks for following along! 🧡

[@MaryAnnArnold]

When Sarah announced her surprise visitor during her zoom meeting a few weeks ago, I was very pleased to see that it was you, having recently discovered your channel. Your stitching is beautiful. I hope you can locate Bridget Power. What you've found out so far is fascinating. Your photos were wonderful. They reminded me of places that have awed me. Thank you.

[@ComfortStitchingJackie]

Thank you so much! 😊

[@rebeccajourney3183]

My doc is Nguyen, and she pronounces "win!" You are correct! I don't consider myself a sampler stitcher, but I do love alphabets. I have a couple of Thea Governor's kits in red. Gorgeous! I like backstitxhing and French knots too😊😊 And I always love a book review! Your photos moved me to teats. Beautiful places, I've not visited, but always wanted to see. Thank you!

I am very late in watching, but I am so glad that I did! Your videos are always so inspiring and beautiful to watch and listen to. Your meditation at the end was so calming, and meaningful to me.. I am so glad that Archie came through his operation so well, and is on the way to full recovery! As I am facing a very major surgery next week, I will carry your images with me and think of all of the sacred places in my own memory. Thank you again!

Thank you! I wish you well on your healing journey. 🙏🏻🩷

Thank you Jackie for sharing your love of cross stitch and the quiet time that you offer at the closing of each episode. I especially enjoyed your visual journey in this episode as it brought to the front of my mind memories of special places and journeys that I have been fortunate to experience.

Thank you so much!

[@marilynzipsie9776]

I have the B. Power pattern and I am enjoying the journey you are on. I think the circles are rosary beads too. A piece like this surely inspires prayer, and she may have been praying Hail Mary's as she stitched.

[@ComfortStitchingJackie]

Thank you! I hope you enjoy stitching Bridget. 🩷

[@joannemoore826]

Thank you Jackie for ending your lovely visit with a peaceful meditation. Prior to your meditation segment I discovered I needed to frog!!!Those deep breathes could not have come at a more needed time…We are put where we are meant to be! So I had beautiful photos and music while I began frogging…thank you. The info on the DAR exhibit and floss tube visit is so appreciated!! Thank you! I will follow your birthday start as soon as I receive mine as peorders were just generously offered for us “not in the club stitchers”! My birthday is in October so I had decided to preorder that for myself! I have no right buying anything else but This is truly the most gorgeous sampler..how could I not! Your connection with Bridget is beautiful. I am holding off my start with her for Jan. 1 in hopes to get a few wips completed🙄 I love the aspect of the rosary beads! Until next time..Happy Stitching!

[@ComfortStitchingJackie]

Thanks so much for watching and for your kind comments. Frogging is never fun, I’m glad the meditation made it bearable. The Julia De La Mare sampler will be beautiful! Happy Birthday!

[@michellehudson3712]

Happy early birthday and so happy to hear that Archie is on the mend! Love seeing your progress and the updates on your search for Bridget! Have a wonderful weekend!

[@ComfortStitchingJackie]

Thank you so much!

[@reneebebla422]

So glad Archie is doing well. As I was watching this video, I was stitching Hope and Love by Hands Across the Sea, Clara and Maude Pickernell 1881 and I started to look at their stories. Their orphanage records and just learning all about them and you really become invested in them when you stitch. You have so many questions and wonder how they did this large Bristol Sampler with the most beautiful letters, it’s just amazing. So when you talk about and share Bridget it is if we are all invested in her. She is just beautiful and that is interesting about the Rosary beads. Antoinette is gorgeous and you made great progress, I could stitch letters all day. Even though you are still learning about Bridget, you have made some great connections to the stitching community and Bridget has brought you those new wonderful friendships. Julia is beautiful as well as your scissors, Happy Birthday and enjoy your new start. Your images and meditation was amazing. I know when we travel there are certain things we try to find like churches, libraries and somewhere that- has water whether it be a river, ocean or a lake. These are areas that bring joy and to be present in them is such a blessing. Happy Stitching

[@ComfortStitchingJackie]

Thank you so much for sharing about what you’re working on. We do become very invested in these young girls lives, don’t we. Yes, in so many ways Bridget has forever changed me. 🩷 🩷🩷

Thank you! And you’re welcome! I’m looking forward to receiving Kate’s linen. That purple is just so pretty. I also got a piece called “Highland Coo.” I couldn’t pass that one up! ☺️

[@patriciacohn2366]

Thank you ,once again, Jackie for a lovely visit! I laughed out loud when you said you were still a monogamous stitcher, as you keep adding to your plans...there is so much wonderful temptation out there with all of the creative designs, it's hard to stay focused. Love learning about all the history behind the stitches. And thanks for sharing your idea on using one color for part of a cross & switching colors for the top cross...interesting idea for color play! Hoping you have a lovely Birthday...I bought the same scissors last year for my B-Day! Kindred spirits?

Thank you! I’ll have accumulated some great stash and my friend Sarah says I can have “focus” pieces. I think I can wrap my brain around that. 😂😂😂

Hi Jackie, a little later than normal, I was in France for a 2 week holiday. So lots of flosstubes I have to watch, less time and peace to watch quiet. After some doubt I decided to stay for the last 8 or so minutes. And again, like the other times, overwhelmed, tears, peace and a smile on my face. Sorry, I forgot about Bridget and all the other stuff you told and showed but they will come back, later, this is all so new to me. For now: thank you and till next time!

[@pegyounger3998]

Jackie, your soothing voice, the deep search for Bridget, your interest in history and background, the connecting of art, appliqué, stitching, the wonderful sharing of other floss tubes, the sacred spaces and lovely meditation prayer all spoke clearly and deeply to me. Thank you for every single part of this flosstube. I’m glad Archie is recovering, and I love the ‘jammies’ you found him so he did not have to wear that cone. I always feel so bad for doggies when they are subjected to that. 🤗 I love your new stitches, and hope to find a couple of them. Your September Birthday start is a beautiful chart and matches the project bag so very well. I think your new scissors looks lovely, but think you should change the tassel to match the project better. Maybe make a stitched fob of one of the small motifs from the sampler 💛. Thanks for the new floss tube suggestions. And I love my magnifying light like yours 😊. Have you viewed Stitching and tea with B? I love her information on 🫖 tea, stitching, and her soothing voice; and like you she shares without trying to sell us something. This has been a lovely Monday, spending time with you. Peg 💛

[@ComfortStitchingJackie]

Thank you so much for your very thoughtful words. 🩷 You are totally right, those scissors need a different fob. The tassel has a Halloween feel to it and is coming off! So glad the magnifying lamp is working well for you!

Thank you Jackie for another great video. Glad to hear Archie is doing so well. Really enjoyed seeing the progress on your projects. I see that Bridget is still proving to be so enigmatic.

I enjoyed Stitch Therapy and am happy to see her back. Take care, enjoy your week off. Best wishes from 🇮🇪

[@BusyMagnaBee]

Glad to know your Archie is doing well. My older dog had surgery to remove mammary tumor. My vet (who is THE BEST) sent her home with a cotton/spandex body suit, somewhat similar to Archie’s pajamas in reverse. The suit pulls over her head and her front legs go through sleeves. The back end pulls between the legs and up around the tail, then snaps closed on the back. I think it’s called a Recovery Suit. It prevented her from licking the wound, and acted kind of like a thunder shirt. I used it when my younger dog was spayed. Worked wonderfully both times. Namaste.

[@ComfortStitchingJackie]

That sounds very much like what Archie had. I had wondered if there was a version for front leg surgeries. I’m glad to know there is! I hope he never needs one, though. 😉 Archie does have a Thundershirt. It comes out of the drawer and goes right on him on July 4th.

[@sewmesarah]

Perfect start to the week Jackie. I love your curiosity and enjoy that you share it with us. It’s ok to stitch a few things but to continue to be a focus stitcher😉 Engagjng with the community I think it must be almost impossible to remain monogamous. Hope to see you next weekend on zoom. take care.

This mediation brought me back to when we were outside San Xavier in Tucson. There is a hill nearby where a family built a shrine. We were coming down the steep slope when someone started playing American Indian flute music. I closed my eyes and felt connected to the earth of days long past. A sense of peace and also sadness overwhelmed me. Thank you for sharing some pictures of the sacred places that mean a lot to you.

Thank you, Jackie, for another beautiful FT! I’m so happy Archie is doing well and keeping his PJs on. I told you earlier that we have had 3 scotties (2 of them were rescued) and we usually had rescued dachshunds at the same time-they are a great combination. Anyway, whenever the scotties got groomed, the groomer always gave our dachshunds a bandana to match the scotties. None of the scotties wanted their bandanas left on and always took the bandanas off of their dachshund sisters-it was pretty funny to witness. They all liked their girls “au naturel.”

[@ComfortStitchingJackie]

😄 that’s a great story about your dogs and the bandanna’s. Archie tolerates one. But only for a very short time!

Thank you for another truly pleasant video, Jackie. 😍 I thought you might like to know my soothing connected place, a place I can fully envision. It is sitting on a driftwood log next to my husband during sunset on the shore of Lake Superior. We are both born, raised and lifelong Michiganders, and there is nothing like the majesty of that Great Lake and our connectedness to it. Thank you for giving me the time to remember it today. 💚Michele

Wonderful! Thank you so much for sharing, Michele! I can almost hear the water rhythmically lapping on the shore.

Thank you once again for a lovely video that is informative, inspirational, and so refreshing. Glad little Archie is doing well. Your pics of sacred places brought to mind the Arbroath Abbey in Scotland. Have you ever been there? I felt such peace in the midst of the sacred ruins. An amazing feeling! Thank you.

[@ComfortStitchingJackie]

Thank you! I haven’t been to that Abbey. The Abbey that was in the video was on the isle of Iona in Scotland, though. ☺️

Thank you for the lovely photos and beautiful prayer. Also, for all the info you so willingly share. Your stitching is just beautiful. I understand we have a mutual friend- Miss SewmeSarah. Another of our sweet, kind, talented sisters. 😘

[@ComfortStitchingJackie]

Thank you so much! Yes, Sarah is a gem. I saw her video where she talked about your visit with her. How wonderful you got to meet in person. ☺️ I hope to meet her next year in London.

Hello Jackie, nice to visit and learn from your interesting information about so many things. I stitch 1 project at a time & simple patterns on 14ct or 16ct aida. I have one of those Singer boxes, it has tools and feet for the machine... Happy Stitchin'

Thanks for sharing! 🩷

[@barbaragallo8187]

Thank you Jackie! I so look forward to your FlossTube. Love watching all you progress and getting Archie updates. Just back from my annual trip to The Attic, where a cut a VERY wide path. Was so lucky that both Jean and Carolyn (sp?) were there and both took time to help and encourage new sampler stitcher. Saturday got to meet @OliveGreen, what a treat - anyone one traveling to Mesa seek her out!

[@ComfortStitchingJackie]

Wonderful! The Attic is such a special place, isn’t it? With very special people who work there. 🩷

[@barbarasantee6963]

Great video, as always. I myself love to work on one project only. However, I have worked into a habit of a large and small stitch now. The small helps to rest my mind and clear the overwhelming feelings I get at times when working on the large piece. Thank you so much for your effort.
