[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you for watching, I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

[@nancygignac-terry3497]

Congratulations on reaching 7000 subscribers I just love that Maryhill chart that was so looks good on my sty folder. It’s so different.😊 the sweet little bird, eating the berry oh my gosh.🇨🇦

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much! Mary Hill really is such a lovely piece!

[@darlenewiebe7577]

Oh my word. Mary Hill is amazing! I would love love love to stitch that on linen! A wonderful floss tube as always.❤🎉

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much - isn't Mary Hill just wonderful? I love that piece - oh that there were more than 24 hours in a day so I could stitch her myself...

[@chris-i2s1b]

Thank you for your inspiration in all the things you do! You are simply amazing and VERY talented. Berry, Linen and chart are all wonderful items. Thank you for sharing. I always look forward to your videos. Chris

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Love your ‘Heritage’ take on Happy Morning! Gorgeous! Beautiful linen and cute berry!

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much! It has made it a very meaningful piece

[@renaewolford3270]

Enjoyed visiting with you; Congrats for 7000! I like linen and chart; so generous of you. I love learning new tidbits re stitching from you. thank you

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much!

[@madamevavra]

Congratulations on 7k and your Sampler Symposium debut! Stickers, notebook, berry, linen, chart. I love the animals on Mary Hill!

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you! The animals on Mary Hill are so fabulously quirky - it's a wonderful chart!

[@melodymarlow2687]

The Britomart Sampler is gorgeous! I can't wait to see how it progresses. The Mary Hill chart is just beautiful! I will have to try stitching on a higher count linen as the highest I've gone so far is 40 count. The Berry Thief was such a cute strawberry project. Thank you for sharing all of your amazing work!

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much! I think you could definitely make the jump to 45 or 48 from 40 - give yourself a little patience for your eyes to adjust, and plenty of good light, and you should be just fine

[@chriswashburn9039]

Another great video as usual. The Santa ornament is so great and congratulations on 7000 subscribers. Linen,stitchers,notebook,berry

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Your Britomart Sampler is amazing! I can't wait to see it finished. Congratulations on 7,000 subscribers. Berry, linen, chart.

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Me too! Progress has been slower than I'd like recently with all the bustle of Symposium and kitting, but I'm hoping to put in some good progress soon...

[@pamelaabate4731]

Wonder Floss Tube! Love the Prairie Schooler Santa with the bling and your framed Plum Street. I love the chart and the berry is adorable. Can’t wait til your next video. ❤

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much!

[@sweetteastitcher5373]

Congrats on 7000!!! Your stitching is gorgeous. I love the stickers, notebook, berry and linen that you showed. They are divine. I've never stitched on 46 so that would be interesting.

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much! There's nothing lost by trying - the worst is that it's not for you, the best is that you could find something you absolutely love...

[@cwhappystitcher173]

Congratulations on your 7000+ subscribers. You are an inspirational stitcher. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and passion for the craft. I would love to stitch either the berry or the chart on that beautiful linen.

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much, that's so kind!

[@christinechristiansen8107]

OMG! Everything you touch turns into perfection. I’m in envy of all your color selections. Thanks for sharing your works and ideas with the rest of us. - stickers berry linen chart -

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much, that's so kind!

[@JanetDoucette]

I love your Sugar Plum Fairies... all of them... I am excited to see what you come up with for the next one!!! Those threads were beautiful on your reversible sampler! That LINEN!!! Gorgeous!!!

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much! The bright and vibrant colors just make me so happy...

[@PamelaWoods-b8l]

Oh my gosh, it’s so wonderful to hear about everyone’s experience at sampler symposium!!! Hope to go someday!!!! LINEN!! Just absolutely love your stitching/projects - keep well & keep stitching!!😊

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you! Definitely do if you ever get the chance - the Attic is just magical and Jean puts on wonderful events, they're truly special

[@ericahill5001]

Count me in for that splendid sampler. And Mary Hill is a chart on my “want to stitch list.” Love Legacy Linen, but I haven’t tried that count or color. Thanks for your lovely flosstubes!

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much!

[@roseheck9841]

I am absolutely gob smacked at your Britomart sampler!! That is so fantastic! You are indeed, very talented. Berry, chart, linen.

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much, that's so kind!

[@goldenstitcheruk6259]

The Attic sounded amazing , congratulations on your 7k subscribers. Love stickers , notebook , berry , linen and chart ❤

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much - it was! The Attic is truly a special place

[@dianemcclure6884]

I'm so glad to one amongst your seven thousand subscribers. Congratulations! The Mary Hill 1854 chart is amazing and would look perfect on the Legacy linen.

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much - it would! I love Mary Hill, such a wonderful and unique piece

[@cathyfaulstich4043]

Love the linen and your conversion of This Happy Morning. You are amazing.

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much! I just love those vibrant reds and greens

[@Laceychelle]

Oh my the band sampler is stunning! Sounds like such a fabulous time, wish I was in the Northern Hemisphere for that kind of thing. Linen, stickers, notebook, all great items, thanks for your generosity. Loved your comment about not liking red because you have enough of it up top haha.

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much! Getting called carrot top every single day in the third grade will do that to you...

[@corinneburnham5422]

Love looking at your casket during your video. Would love to visit with your mom again and see what chart she’s working on. Your linen choice for the berry is beautiful. Congratulations on 7000.

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

I know, I keep trying to get her on but she tells me she's slow and never has anything to show (this is a lie)...

[@marygoode1058]

Thank you for another wonderful floss tube episode, Katie! As always, I loved all that you presented, and your band sampler design is particularly stunning! How fun to listen to your recap ofSampler Symposium. Each floss tuber whose recap videos I have seen present their own personal reflections and experiences, which makes it so interesting! The stickers you gifted at Symposium are beautiful and would be the perfect addition to my needlework journal. I like to keep a notebook with my stitching to jot down interesting items and facts when I’m watching floss tube videos and I’ve never stitched on 48ct linen, but would love to give it a try!

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you! I've enjoyed all the different recaps for the same reason - I was there, I experienced the whole thing, but seeing what different people took away from it has been so interesting to hear. It speaks to what Jean has achieved, that so many people can come to an event and all find so much to appreciate in it.

[@cheshirecats3433]

I love watching you. So many ideas and your enthusiasm is catching. I would be happy with the notebook, Berry, Linen …

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much!

[@Jennlovesstitching]

Thank you so much!

[@katharined6199]

Hi Katie, lovely, informative video as always 😊. Loved the berry and stickers so sweet. Thank you Katharine ❤

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much!

[@joannmiller6852]

Another wonderful flosstube. Definitely would love the chart and linen and berry not to mention stickers. I appreciate the time,you put into presentations. I will attempt to get in on the new project offering. Have to be fast fingered!

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much! I hope there will be plenty of supply - it's hard to gauge with such a big project but with luck I'll have guessed correctly...

[@reneebebla422]

So many wonderful stitchy goodness in this video. Your reversible stitching on the Britomart Sampler is exquisite. It is always great to explore and expand your techniques plus it gives your creative side a chance to shine. The Prairie Schooler is sparkly amazing! Love your Sugar Plums but can’t wait to see the next one. Parson Brown looks great on the Smoke Signal linen. The berry that Jean stitched is lovely. The threads in the Happy Morning are stunning! See you in a couple weeks.

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you! Trying out reversible stitching has definitely been an interesting journey for me - I've learned a few things and you really can't beat the reveal of the mirrored back!

[@linwillow7344]

I never regret pausing my day to watch your You Tube presentation. I could look at that Happy Morning Chart every time I stop to listen and learn. How smart to do stickers of your chart. A creative heart blesses the soul for sure. I see another strawberry chart, and they are hard not to collect. I ordered your postcards and am having a hard time parting with even one. I may need to order a notebook too. Sewing a berry on linen is something to try. I have made a strawberry from one in Just Cross Stitch magazine a few years ago. So much fun! Happy Stitching, Katie! Hope you begin a new chart soon.

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much! This Happy Morning is just beautiful, those vibrant reds and greens make my heart sing every time...

[@lisagrissom3573]

Your work is so inspiring. I especially loved your upcoming chart on the beautiful linen. The berry is adorable.

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much!

[@embroiderpiccies]

Katie. Your band sampler is amazing. I’ve missed a few flosstubes and need to catch up - but feeling soooo delighted to have jumped in with this one. Stickers / Notebook / Linen. Congrats on such a great following

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you, that's so kind of you - and good luck!

[@rose2fame1]

Hi Katie, good to see you back! Linen! Love your Britomart band sampler and the colors chosen. Lovely counting pins from jersey girl stitch co. It sounds like sampler symposium was a wonderful event. Idk how you can choose a chart while there, for me it would be difficult. The Britomart thread charm is lovely. ❤️ have a great week.

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you!

❤Oh my goodness! Your Britomart sampler is exquisite! And the back is as neat as the front! And your Sugar Plum Fairy!!! I need to try this in honor of my daughter who was principal ballet dancer with Carolina Ballet ( will post an IG photo). I love the Marchpane linen - my kind of color! And love the Mary Hill chart as well.Thank you for sharing your talent!

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you - I saw your photo, you must be so proud. My mother had hoped I'd be a dancer but I was born klutzy so it didn't really work out. I hope you do try your own version to honor her!

Thank you so much! It is such wonderful linen, such a lovely hand to it...

[@stitchingincostume]

Happy 7000!! First... thank you for the kind shout out. I was worried that my complete enthusiasm for my first retreat was nutty. I'm back down to earth now- but it got me through the blahs of January in the best way. I really enjoyed your video today and always love to see what you're working on in all areas of your creativity. Looking forward to the release of your sampler and for the darling PS Santa kit. Like you I didn't get my scissors engraved at Symposium but next trip to Haystack I will bring em all! Happy stitching my friend! Notebook, linen 🏵🏵🏵😍

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Oh god not at all - everyone has that experience. I still find the Attic completely overwhelming, in the best sense. I'm not sure it's possible to be blase in the face of so much inspiration, stitchy goodness, and excited stitchers!

[@katherinem7835]

Oh my gosh Katie, so many things, stickers, notebook, linen, chart, berry. Thank you for all of the lovely things to see. Love your new bandsampler.

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much! It's a pleasure to stitch and a pleasure to finally get to share my progress on it!

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much!

[@ambermilone937]

Always so inspiring Katie! I am so glad I got to meet you in person and have lunch with you and the other ladies on Friday before the start of the retreat. Your presentation was hands down one of the best discussions of needle art I have ever had the pleasure of listening too. Seeing the casket in person was such a treat. I can't wait till the sampler and kit become available. I have been thinking about it since you revealed it at symposium.

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much, that's so kind, and really gratifying to hear. You never know as a presenter how the audience will respond to what you have to say. And I'm very excited to keep sharing my progress on the Britomart sampler!

[@kckoehler1766]

Wow! Fabulous flosstube Katie. Thank you!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻 for Happy Morning. It is gorgeous!! Notebook , Berry , Linen ,

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you! I hope there will be plenty of kits - it's so hard to gauge demand on such a large kit, but as long as you're there reasonably close to the release I think it will be fine. Or at least I sincerely hope so! I never want to disappoint anyone

[@patricelambusta7865]

So many lovely items...your stitching never ceases to amaze. Stickers, notebook, berry linen. :)

Congratulations! What a wonderful video! Chart.Liben

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much!

[@ortsandall]

Those stickers are so cute! I have been stitching Dasher and Dancer by Hobby House on the 48 count linen in Bride Cake using 100/3 and it is absolutely my sweet spot. I decided to stitch Constant Companion by Erica Michaels on 56 count after seeing Jean Lea's gorgeous stitching at a retreat but I find the 48 count more pleasant to work with for me personally. As always I enjoy your Flosstube and hearing your perspective.

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you! I haven't had a chance to stitch with it myself yet but am really looking forward to it as I love 45 count, I think that little extra bit smaller will be lovely...

[@samplerstyle]

I am currently stitching AGIT 1833 and I would love those stickers! Your videos are so great. Congrats on 7000 subs!

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you! Isn't it the most wonderful piece?? I have to get back to mine...

[@cjd7602]

Linen berry Katie, your Britomart sampler is gorgeous. It has a similar feel to the Loara Standish sampler, which I started several years ago (1999?). 😂 you have inspired me to get it out again. Thank you, I think.

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you - I hope returning to it brings you joy! Band samplers are so inspiring

[@adinasalmansohn9842]

Congratulations on 7,000! All your stitching is incredible, but I would be delighted to reproduce your Britomart Sampler when you are ready with it. I love the notebook, the berry, the linen and the chart. I'm looking forward to the reappearance of AKGIT. I am working on Jacob's "No Time Like the Present" and I love it.

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much! The Britomart sampler is eating a lot of my time - in the best way - so I'm not sure when I'll get back to AKGIT but I do love it and really want to get it finished this year...

[@lizg9022]

What a fabulous video! Love your aesthetic! Can’t wait to see what you do with your chart (and all your charts!).

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much - good luck!

[@hmbfog_stitcher]

Good to see you back on Flosstube. The linen you showed is gorgeous. Stay safe and get lots of stitching done during the atmospheric river that’s about to hit us.

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Thank you so much! Thankfully not bad here at all - howling wind but my power stayed on the whole time, very grateful to be warm and dry!

[@juliaalopiparo1605]

Hi Katie. So great to see all your amazing work at the Symposium. Your talk was eye opening and definitely has changed my perspective on these band sampler motifs and their construction. I have been thinking of what I would put on a casket (IF I were to ever make one….). My head is just swimming with ideas but I keep coming back to a theme. We will have to see. Thank you for all the inspiration! Julia

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

I seem to remember telling you that by the time you've started picturing what would go on a casket you're past the if stage, which I stand by! Choosing a theme is definitely one of the hardest parts because there are so many wonderful ideas, but you never finish a project you don't start...
