FlossTube Episode #1 • Reproduction Samplers and Introducing Myself

[@nancysumma6560]

Another fabulous video! You are going to be quite the enabler with these fabulous floss tubes! Love all the fancy charts. Maybe I’ll stitch some candy corn in a fall piece. 🧡💛🤎

[@pattimccoy5359]

Hi Barrie! Just found you today! Wish I knew you when I lived in San Diego…for 35 years! As I felt like I was the only stitcher in town. Moved to Ohio in 2018…it’s a small world ❤ great flosstube. Looking forward to catching up with yours.

[@mm-qm9zh]

Hello! I so enjoyed seeing your first video. You did a fantastic job, and I enjoyed every moment. It was a pleasure to meet you, and I look forward to catching up on the next episodes. You do beautiful work! Thank you 🤗 Meline

[@robinpollard6085]

Hi, I found your #5 podcast and knew I need to start at #1 😊 . When you said you love borders and frequent color changes I was ecstatic. I absolutely love those projects. This year I finished Reflect de Soie Yvonne Leclercq 1905. I absolutely love the border and stitching it was so fun! There are others but my current border favorite is Eleanor Parr by the Scarlet Letter. Your intro projects are lovely and I enjoyed stitching and watching today. Thanks so much for sharing. I also finished Bridget Powers this year as well. Robin Pollard

[@conniebechtold2889]

Decided to catch up on flosstube! Enjoyed a new floss tube and Happy Birthday! Have fun at The Attic!

[@shamancarmichael5305]

I just returned to cross stitching this past summer after a long break, and discovered Flosstube! I found your channel through Grace at The Paisley Stitcher, and it's so fun to find fellow San Diegan stitchers! You've got some lovely pieces going, and I look forward to following your progress. I also hope to get a project bag soon! ☺

[@adrienneweissbeck1352]

Oh, I am so glad I found you. I sew, knit, crochet, piece quilts, and cross stitch. I started cross stitching in 1981. I have thousands of patterns. I guess I am addicted, with no plans for rehab.

[@stitchfolk537]

There's no cure Adrienne!!! Just going to have to accept your fate and enjoy life!!! Thank you so much!!! xoBarrie

[@lorettahenderson8979]

Barrie…hope you had a lovely birthday…loved both the samplers and fabrics for sewing you beautiful bags…enjoy going to the Attic with your friend…wishing you the best and happy stitching ❣️

[@lollipopc4901]

Hello Barrie! I am a journal maker, not a stitcher, but the floss tube videos started popping up and I am thoroughly enjoying them! I used to do cross stitch many years ago, and some quilting, so I loved everything you showed. The samplers are absolutely amazing. I will subscribe so I can keep track of your progress 😊 The KZbin journal making community is wonderful and supportive as well. Thank you and I look forward to seeing upcoming videos and anything else you are working on! 💕 Laurel 🇨🇦

[@stitchfolk537]

I'm so happy your enjoying FlossTube videos!! I've watched some journal making videos and am inspired by the creativity!!

Carol Saltbox Stitcher said your voice was so soothing. She was absolutely right. It was a pleasure watching your first floss tube. Great job Barrie. Looking forward to your next one.

[@stitchfolk537]

Oh sweet Carol!!! Thank you so much for watching my first video Ruth!!!

[@stefaniestaniak4329]

Great first floss tube. For being new to stitching, you sure do beautiful work. I’m thinking it’s because you have been in the fabric/fiber world for years so it must be in your blood. 😊 Can’t wait to visit your Etsy shop too. Thanks for sharing.

[@stitchfolk537]

Thank you so much Stefanie!!! I think you're right. I've had a needle in my hands for a very long time and cross stitch seems like home!

[@hmb1225]

I love your channel - our styles and colors are the same! I too stitch and quilt. You have me excited to start up again. I love the pear on your ledge and would like the details, please. Looking forward to more.

[@stitchfolk537]

Thank you so much!! The pear was stitched for me by my friend Kelly @onelifetostitch Here's the link to the chart by Threadwork Primitives. www.etsy.com/listing/998584021/bristol-sampler-pear-cross-stitch-chart?click_key=a04a05c50cdfb61cde622952ccc2b90ba4e48106%3A998584021&click_sum=5958fe5a&ref=shop_home_recs_11&sca=1

Welcome to floss tube! I love your bags! I enjoyed seeing your sampler stitching!

[@stitchfolk537]

Thank you so much Vicki!

[@debbiegilmore4641]

Hi Barry! Enjoyed your first flosstube. I am a new cross stitcher and loved seeing all the beautiful things you are working on. I am just as I comment, stitching on a 40 count fabric for the first time. Amazing that you’ve only been stitching for 2 years and how advanced your projects are. I also grew up in your area. Graduated High School at Torrey Pines in 1980. Happy Birthday to you! Congratulations with your success on your bags!

[@stitchfolk537]

Hi Debbie! Thank you so much!!! I also went to Torrey Pines and would have graduated in 1980. I decided to that the high school proficiency exam and left a year early though. My maiden name is Bowen. I looked at your IG feed and LOVE all of your quilting and your Ann Wood mouse is adorable!!! xoBarrie

[@kathyhuff3406]

Your stitching for only two years, is awesome. Happy Stitching

Great first video! I live in Southern California in Mission Viejo. I am not generally a sampler stitcher, but after seeing your video I want to stitch all of your pieces 😀 You have beautiful projects in the works 🙂

[@stitchfolk537]

Thank you so much Debbie! When I was a teenager my friends and I would go to the roller skating rink up in Mission Viejo. Over 40 years ago.

[@ShawninAZ]

Hi Barrie I hope you had a wonderful birthday! I’m just a year and a half back from you and I have to say you look beautiful! No one would ever guess. I’m here in Peoria AZ. I just returned to stitching after raising our daughter. During that time I was really obsessed with photography and paper crafting. Cross stitch has grown so much it’s so fun now I’m just loving it. I only have one handmade project bag so far. I just hear about you when you were listing your last release and I just missed out. The beautiful red fabric your looking at for Christmas bags is amazing so I need to stay on the ball and watch for those. I love everything your working on its beautiful. Looking forward to seeing your red bird sampler I have the pattern but haven’t kitted it up yet. Take care!

[@stitchfolk537]

Hi Shawn! My birthday was the best! I was able to drag it out for almost a week 😄 I'm so glad to hear you found your way back to cross stitch. Maybe we'll see you at the Attic Needlework sometime 😊
