I'm only at the beginning of your video, and I completely agree about negative comments. You're sharing with us for free, and the adage should apply, if you can't say something nice, say nothing!

[@doloresworthley1013]

Yup my mom taught us if you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything

[@DreamyButtercup]

I watched the Sloppy Stitchin Sisters … I nearly died with laughter. I had to come back and comment again. Thank you so much for recommending them. They are hilarious. If you haven’t watched it already you need to watch #3. I’m still laughing two days later. I cried I was laughing so hard.

[@debohare674]

“Hold my beer!” That made me laugh. My oldest is also from the 90’s. Thanks for keeping me company while I stitch.

[@eleniroberts7812]

Mine too 😊

[@Stitchingpeach]

Walking to town is my vote! It’s lovely! I love watching your videos. I only have 10 WIPs going at a time because I feel anxious and overwhelmed with more than that. I LOVE watching stitchers who manage a lot of projects!!

[@gabrielazimmermann3562]

Hi Jenn, I absolutely LOVE your long videos. I sit here stitching, watch you showing your projects, you talk about your plans, games and my head is spinning with making plans on my own. It's such a great community, even though I'm "only" a viewer, but I feel part of the whole lot. Keep up your excellent work. And my vote for your wip of shame is Walking to Town!!!!!! 🥰

[@threadyforstitching]

Walking to town is lovely and I would love to see some progress on it. P.s we are always happy for extra Jenn videos. I think a monthly stat vid would be great ❤

[@Ailarra918]

Loved the energy of this video. Making plans makes you happy, and that's all that matters. Walk to town official vote lol. Love you friend 💙🪡🦄

[@michellederoche-johnson9977]

Hey Cheater McCheaterton, just want to say my absolute FAVORITE part of your videos is how excited you get when you're pulling the next stitch line-up!! And I LOVED "Hold my beer"!!! 😂 My vote is for "Walking to Town" for WIP of Shame. Keep doing YOU! 😊

[@MarissaMcConnell]

"I don't know how I'm going to get all this done, I just want to do all the fun things" is my life's motto, but I didn't know it until you said it.

[@BlueBoX_Stitcher]

Hi Jenn. Watching your opening and I totally agree with you. You have such a great outlook on life and your defence of your friends tells me what a good person you are. Keep doing you cause it is awesome. I'm here for that little bit of crazy with the stitching. Keep doing it!

[@karinmonnich3310]

Love your progress on your wips. Love your framed piece, it is gorgeous. Happy stitching! My vote is for Walking to town.

[@therunnerstitcher]

My vote is walking to town! Ok yes that glory of autumn finish is incredible! You definitely need to hang it so we can stare at it each week! Amazing finish thanks for sharing it again! Aww thank you for the shoutout :). I'm glad you liked the story and makes it even better knowing I was getting your reactions out of it haha! I just love your plans and am amazed how you just keep adding more haha!

[@Katz_n_crossstitch]

I was worried, that I wasn't going to see a video this week cause it didn't pop up Thursday night. I was scared😱. I didnt know what I was going to do with my life. 😀 Anyway, thanks for sharing and being a genuine human. Keep up the 2hr videos. Love every minute.

[@mpeacock7666]

I sat here and watched your very enjoyable flosstube while stitching on WIP#2 of 2 - and 1 is only not done because I'm missing a color. Your enthusiasm for DO ALL THE THINGS makes me itch to join you in doing all the things - but having 2 projects in progress is making me itchy, lol. Thank you for taking your time away from stitching to make all the videos you do. I vote for Walking to Town for you next WIP of shame.

[@mazerolle77]

I was sad hearing that ailarra is pausing her flosstubes for now, but I am so glad that I found you and your long videos! My vote is for Walking to Town.

[@LidiasLeisurelyStitching]

I think it will be great to see a monthly statistics video- imagine all the progress between the before and after pictures on the HAED SAL and honeymoon sunset! Happy stitching 💜

[@jennthecaffeinatedcrafter5679]

I think so too! I’m excited to see how different they will look in a month! Might have to adjust how I take before photos now 😂

[@Busymomstitcher]

I am voting for Walking To Town. Great progress on all your WIPS. ❤

[@pamkrambeer3949]

My vote is for Walking to Town, love your long videos I get so much stitching done.

[@lindsaybridges5257]

I really enjoy your long episodes! My vote is for Walking to Town. Happy stitching!

[@danysewcrafty]

Thanks for the great video, such fun. Love hearing about all the plans, and plan changes. :) That’s the cool thing about flosstube, hearing other people obsess about stitching and stitching plans the way you do yourself lol. My vote for Oct WIP of shame is Walking to Town.

[@lesleygarcia4344]

Hi Jenn! I would like to see you do Walking to Town. I love all your projects and all your processes. The Stitchopoly game sounds like so much fun! Can’t wait to see your next video!

[@indrejasaityte6971]

I vote for Walking to town 🙂 Amaizing framed piece😍 love new ideas to your stitching plans😍 thank you🥰

[@marthae2667]

Hi Jenn Thank you for your videos. Your channel is one of my very favorites. I feel sad about the negative comments people leave because they are watching by choice. At least you don't have to work with them. I am now retired and my plan was watching other people's plans and having none. I say was because you have talked me into the temperature wip one. The Jennopoly game sounds fun but I would have to have new starts {!!) on the board to have enough. I came back to stitching less than 2 years ago. Oh and I vote for Walking to Town.

[@ReneeMeeks68]

My vote is for Walking to Town! Another great video, Jenn ❤

[@Linda-Lovestostitch]

I love all of your videos. You are very passionate with your projects. I love Honeymoon Sunset.

[@francummings3398]

You ARE nuts…thankfully! I love watching all the plans and adjustments to plans and additions to plans and more plans for something different. I always feel a smile coming to my face when I see you have dropped a video. I’m so glad you stitch for the pure joy of all it allows you to explore. Keep ‘em coming 😂

[@jennthecaffeinatedcrafter5679]

Thank you so much! ❤️❤️

[@booksandstitches]

Lovely update! I always love watching all your projects and plans. It's so much fun to see you try out different games. I'm very tempted to try one out myself, but I don't really enjoy switching projects often 😅 My vote for your wip of shame goes to Frederick. I love the cat in that piece. You may have noticed already, but in case you didn't and hot confused next video, you forgot to write down the 1 on your board for your total stitches on yippee ka yay. Hope you have a lovely week 💕

[@DreamyButtercup]

I think it’s so sweet that your son is excited for his project. That is one of the greatest Christmas movies of all time lol. I’ve been watching your videos every week since December. I’ve never commented before because I typically watch on my tv while I’m stitching not my tablet. (I also just realized that apparently I wasn’t subscribed oops) I wanted to say thank you. I think it is so fantastic that you and other flosstubers put yourselves out there. One of my pet peeves is cyber bullies and people who solely just want to hurt others for the sake of drama or pure stupidity! I stand by the mantra ‘if you got nothing good to say, scroll on by’. Thanks for inspiring me every week. I love seeing all your plans and projects. I love to see the joy and smile on your face when you talk about your projects .. you even smile for Home Sweet Home lol . Thanks for taking the time to share with the rest of us when you could be doing anything else. I’m going to vote for Walk to Town.

[@inapupo3308]

You crack me up with all of your plan updates. I’m in Orlando we’re going to have meet up one of these days. I vote for Frederick with all of the books.

[@loriclarke2931]

I vote for walking to town. I started a new rotation. It lasted on month. I also bought two HAED charts when I said I wouldn’t. And then there is the floss, which I bought today. Schedule smedule. Lol. Love your videos

[@TheCrossStitchGuy]

When you said, "that's the one I want to do" for the Monopoly board I was laughing lol. I loved getting blamed for inspiring you! It's going to be fun.My vote is for the walking into town piece. Yes, you should definitely hang your FFO. We would love to see your completed projects showcased. I love that petrified fabric and the sentence enhancing piece.

[@lindamincher8902]

Oh man! I love Frederick…my daughter started it in about 2009 when she was in high school and still hasn’t finished it 😄 But I’m voting for Walking to Town cuz I want to see it worked on. Love your videos! Have a great week. ~ Linda M.

[@joannebedford8571]

If you don't like a channel dont watch it! Dont be rude or nasty, that's being a small minded little bully. I watch a variety of channels, and I'm so thankful there are people out there making videos for me to watch. I love your channel and all your hundreds of wips and crazy plans. You make me laugh, and I've seen so many patterns I like that I've never seen before.

[@wendyjohnson2369]

My vote for the WIP of Shame: Walking to Town ❤

[@DeeStitcher]

Ohhh yes... walking to town needs its month of glory!!!

[@HeatherMarieLP]

Thank you for all the great content you put out. Sorry you have to deal with some trolls that have to be so negative. I know these longs videos take away from your stitching time, so thank you again for using that time to post these. My vote is for Walking to Town.

[@arachnessister6293]

Love this video..just needed to add my vote..when you first started the W.O.S., it was such a joy to see Frederick come alive....even though the other one is older, I'm casting a big, fat vote for Frederick!!

[@mary-ellenvieira165]

I vote for Frederick. Love the game idea. I don't have enough projects, yet.

[@MultipleLanesCreativeBrain]

Love your videos Jen, you are one crazy lady ( the good kind)... adding another game! Lol but I'm so intrigued to see how this works lol. I love monopoly 😊. My vote for your whip of shame is walking to town.

[@kayparkhouse919]

I love your enthusiasm!! I am inspired by theonopoly Gane and think I will do it for 2025 . Can't wait to see whatore I learn about it as you go along.

[@amotleyartwkatherine]

I am voting for Walking to Town. Love kitty projects but that one needs more time spent on it. Love your seeing your projects, beautiful stitching. I am interested to see how you create your Monopoly board. I have seen people make there own boards for Booktube to pick there reading for the month. So picking your WIPs that way should be interesting.

[@owlandgatorstitcher]

Sorry about the nastiness you had to deal with. The diagonals in Honeymoon Sunset are really bringing it to life. This cat lady is voting for Frederick

[@Clrmorningstitches]

Hi Jenn, I love the long videos. I am voting for walking to town. I have Glory of Autumn, it is gorgeous but I dread the back stitching.

[@janeedwards7193]

Can’t wait to see how the monopoly challenge pans out. Might have to give it a go myself 😊. My vote is for Walking to Town x

[@MichelleLewis-d4g]

I'm voting for Walking to town. Enjoyed the video.

[@erinsmakes2933]

Walking to town is my vote, I completely revamped my entire stitching life after your last video so....thanks I think...LOL! Now Monopoly....I CANNOT WAIT b/c that sounds like a freaking blast

[@clarew5861]

I'm another one who loves a long video. I love sitting stitching while you chat, I'm slack about commenting though. Unfortunately the negativity seems to be on the rise, hopefully it'll settle again once they realise this is not a community that will tolerate that. And i love your crazy plans. I'm terrible with plans but I really enjoy hearing out and watching others with theirs 😂 My vote is with Frederick because I love him and that pattern so much.

[@lindaklinedinst9236]

Hi Jenn Love all of your WIPS - Beautiful Stitching Take Care & Happy Stitching ❤️🤗🧵🪡🧵🐾🐱🐾🐾🐱🐾☕️❤️

[@Majascraftingzoo]

My vote is for Frederick. See a lot of votes for the other one but Frederick needs some more love I feel🤣. I like your "new" (probably old by now in the rate you change plans haha. But you do what makes you happy) plans with the temperatures. Feels like you will get a lot of progress on those pieces without doing too much every day or get bored with one. Love watching your videos!

[@JustJan2662]

Well said at the beginning! I love all the crazy! Makes me feel at home🤪. Oh and I vote of walking to town. Love these long ass videos!

[@janemurray4534]

Loving the extra chaos!!! 😂😊Um is it the walk to town im voting for!!?!!

[@gemmahardy1871]

Hi! I love watching you you make my day and you crack me up. I agree with your sentiment just move along the bus if you dont like someones video, there is going to be some video you like. My vote is walking to town. I'm a really slow stitcher so I'd sink with your count but I love seeing your progress you stitch so quickly.

[@doloresworthley1013]

I agree with you totally on the negative comments I saw one on one I was watching and thought exactly what you said if you don't like it stop and scroll on. I also don't watch some floss tubes for the reasons you gave. Too many people hide behind keys boards and think it ok to be rude and nasty. Love your videos

[@cherylrandleman2195]

Great progress this week! I’d like to see you work on Frederick!

[@Nancyw823]

How nice the color band stitch is on the diagonal! Walking to Town is my pick. What a beautiful ffo. Hang it it deserves displaying

[@tulips3967]

Hi, Jenn. Haters are going to hate. That’s the world we’re living in now. Some people just don’t know what it is to be tactful. I just want you to know that I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS! Keep it up!👏🙏👍❤

[@StitchedinPeace]

You are not crazy just so open for new ideas that they find you each and every time! I'm excited for you and can't wait for the game😂 maybe your friends can roll a dice for the rest of imagined gamers? Walking to town, please😊

[@myyarnycorner]

Love all the projects amd the monopoly idea is genius!! Yippee kay yay isblooking amazing!!! 😍

[@amywyckhouse]

I vote for walking to town!

[@madgrandma]

I love how every week there's a slight tweak to your plans! I'd love Frederick to be your WIP of shame for October. (I have it - not started yet!) If you like the Monopoly idea you should watch Coco Creates who has a 3 layer board!!

[@HilltopStitching]

Oh I vote for working on Walking to Town!!!

[@officialmermaidscove1376]

Happy birthday to your step brother! 🎉 I vote Frederick! Happy stitching! ❤

[@karenmorrone7103]

I have a triptik that I started late 80's, lol. Love your videos no matter how long they are. My vote goes to Frederick. ❤😊

[@emmaswartz6653]

Hi Jenn, after you showed your Teresa Wentzler charts last video, I went down a rather large rabbit hole, I’m now the “proud” owner of both Fantasy collection books, I already had the second one, her Sampler book and her Christmas collection book, the Christmas one has the Winter Carousel horse in it, now I need to get this full coverage Christmas gift done, so my normal stitching and one of Teresa’s designs can work it’s way into next years plans, thank you for a great video and who cares if you add in sentence enhancements, I use them to talk to my cat. 😂😂😂.

[@lynnwassenaar6118]

Like Thumper’s momma always says, “If you don’t have nuthin’ nice to say, don’t say nuthin’ at all.” - Bambi. I vote for A Walk To Town just because you haven’t worked on it yet this year.

[@tonyacogdill2829]

I look forward to your videos. You are a hoot and enjoy watching your videos while I stitch. Although the Walking to Town is beautiful, I think Frederick needs some love. My vote is for Frederick.

[@captainsquirrel1444]

frederick for sure. happy stitching

[@crowstitcher]

The Monopoly game sounds fun! It got me brainstorming on how I could do something in the style of Clue. I vote for Frederick!

[@melissatober1547]

Frederick!!! I've missed him. Great video Jenn!

[@phyllisdaum1213]

I just love your flosstube! I love seeing just how you are going to make your stitching life even more complicated than it already is.

[@louzee414]

Both WIPs of shame are beautiful but my vote is walking to town.

[@patriciabrown5524]

You’re nuts! All the things you’re doing you want to add more ! Got me intrigued though & thinking that if a whiteboard would work for the monopoly game But then it might be too easy to erases stuff accidentally! Can’t wait to see what you come up with! I like Frederick wip of shame

[@Stitcheelisa]

Die Hard is my favourite cross stitch movie! I love that that piece is the one that caused the offence 😂 I am only new to your channel but love your wips and your energy ❤❤😊

[@heather1980stitcher]

My vote is for Walking to town! 😊

[@philippacarlin6542]

Okay, my vote goes to Walking to Town - it's 25 years old for goodness sake 🤣 Also (and here's where you get to Hold MY Beer) my oldest kit is a Janlynn kit from 1987 called Cleaning the House that is also a winter scene done on navy Aida that I have to restart due to an irreversible food incident - don't ask. We know you're addicted to all the shiny new ideas and we love you for it. 😊🇳🇿

[@siskestitches]

My vote is for Frederick as I see that better fits to the month October. Walking town I would stitch for winter 😂. Omg, the monopoly idea, I was like : HOW?!? Will you make that work. I don’t think I will join as I don’t like to play monopoly myself… I will follow your journey. I mentioned in one of my videos earlier that stitchers were playing monopoly with their stitching but I didn’t know how. Happy stitching and thank you for the shout out ❤

[@agnetaloof728]

Hello from Sweden. I so love your videos and crazieness as you call it. And the long videos to. So please go on with it.😀

[@occam5123]

If it got a cat, i will have to pick it. So i will vote for Frederick. Oh, Gracie!! 🙄 Crazy plans. Just crazy! But that's why I love your channel so much. Happy stitching!

[@rosered_crafts]

My vote is for Frederick 📚 Also, WIP-OPOLY? Yes please! 😂 I'm loving all these new game ideas everyone is coming up with recently ❤

[@dmscraftyvortex]

Ok two things. First my vote is for walking town. And second what if you actually played your game of monopoly against Alirra? Love your long videos which might help me with some rotation plans 💃

[@Ailarra918]

😂 I don't know if that would work....Jenn and I both flip Monopoly boards 😂😂😂😂

[@missinginastitch]

Hi Jenn, had a blast with watching you and your EXTENDED plans!! You really have your days full of cross stitching! How do you manage to go to work 😂🤣 Just love your videos and the long ones are the best! I feel that there are so many influencers and my plans get messed up evertime some comes up with something new - at least to new to me. Let's see what I'll end up before 2025...🤔🤪 Wip of shame; I'm voting for the one from the past millenium 😆🥰

[@carylminard448]

I’m voting for… Walking To Town! You are fun, so much fun to watch and listen to too. I don’t know how you find the time to do all of this. I feel like I need more time to do all the games and to be able to stitch more. Happy Everything! ❤🧵🪡

[@kellyroll8108]

I am intrigued to see how the monpoly thing goes, sounded too complex for me but I'm sure you'll ace it. Also stitch Frederick!

[@eleniroberts7812]

Walking to town is my vote

[@craftsohard]

"hold my beer"...oh those sweet young stitchers. lololol Love both WIPS of shame, but I would love to see you work on Walking to Town. I have never seen that kit. It's so pretty!

[@angiefittro8372]

Walking to Town because it is older, and you need to get those projects from the 90’s done, lol.

[@sharonedmondson2923]

Walking To Town Gets My Vote.

[@maryannjohnson5410]

Walking to Town gets my vote. Enjoyed the video. Love the Monopoly idea! Have you thought about just using that to choose your Wips instead of picking from the baskets? Looking forward to seeing how it works out

[@whichstitchps]

Walking to townnnnnn!!🎉🎉🎉 Awesome video, as always.😁

[@wendysstitching4849]

Love the long videos. 😀 My pick for wip of shame is walk to town

[@annwilcoxen9637]

Jessie Marie Does Stuff does the big brother game too 😊

[@hannaahlstrom9703]

I am so glad you have such a long episode. I am home on sick leave after doing a hip replacement surgery and have been looking at flosstubes while stitching and knitting. Someday I will have to look up and learn more about diagonal stitching. Your piece (sorry forgot what it is called) with the palm tree looks awesome. But such a lot of work. I am very impressed. I haven’t cross stitched for over 20 years and so much has happened since then.

[@jeannieleitner3582]

My vote if for Walking to Town. I think you could start a WIP challenge with the new Survivor starting next week. A WIP for every contestant. Whichever team wins the challenge stitch one strand on each WIP or a certain number of stitches per team member. Whoever gets voted off a specific number like 500. Looking forward to watching your Monopoly vide next.

[@hardtde]

Hi! I’m looking forward to see your Monopoly project. I vote to walking to town. Have a nice week!

[@kriscaballero6321]

Love the Walking to Town kit!

[@sarahwebb1450]

I'm voting for Frederick. As far as doing a monthly statistics video goes, it sounds like a lot of extra time on your part if you're going to show all the projects. If it was just here's the numbers for how many stitches and how many projects with maybe just showing any new starts or finishes it wouldn't be quite so much work/time. Just a thought.

[@sandyw8261]

So sorry someone left you a mean comment - I personally love to see what you are working on and what you will work on!! Not all of it is to my taste, but I still love it all. I love flosstubes because it's not work related or political!! I like Fredrick, but then I have a soft spot in my heart for cats - I'm a cat lady - with children.

[@user-or6hm2vc9d]

Maybe do walking to town so you can have it framed with your autumn piece 👍

[@sarahgreiner2694]

With the Honeymoon Sunset, I would be tempted to go across the bottom, so all 4sides were done/connected. Then, I'd want to do the diagonals in the lower left corner as a change, since you've finished that diagonal you were working on.

[@jennthecaffeinatedcrafter5679]

I was definitely tempted to do diagonals in all the corners but I was getting lines doing them in tent stitch from the left and I don’t want to risk that happening again

[@vickiereno1665]

So sorry about that horrible comment. Totally agree with you! There is no reason to complain, just do not subscribe! Walking To Town! Your weekly stitch counts are closer to what I do in a month! I would love to hear daily stats - which WIP and how much stitches did you complete on Monday.
