Saltbox Stitcher [Episode 102] "Crazy Continues.. More New Starts !"

[@danahilldale5255]

My new favorite quote: "And I just may start all these...I mean, you know, there's NO LAW!" - Carol Saltbox Stitcher 🤣🤣

[@saltboxstitcher]

Haha. So true!!!

[@suzannemadsen6879]

Always great to see your video pop up. A cry goes up in my house! YAY, ITS CAROL!! My husband knows where I will be! Happy 72nd birthday Carol. Great to reach these numbers. I turned 70 on 1st June. Thrilled to bits. By the Grace of God. Lots of virtual stitchy love from New Zealand.

[@saltboxstitcher]

Thank you. Happy belated birthday to you!!

[@laurapeacemaker5721]

Carol, you look fabulous in that orange shirt! The color really brightens your face! Thanks for sharing all of your beautiful stitching. Be well. ❤

[@saltboxstitcher]

Oh thank you!

[@donnastrang8913]

I always enjoy the time you spend with us, "Your faithful Viewers". Yes, I anxiously await each new posting. You are just like a dear friend even though we've never met. Your birthday gifts were so special. Seems like Professor Saltbox put a lot of thought into his purchases. May you enjoy many more. You have caught up to me now. I was 72 in May. Your stitching was beautiful as always and the conversation delightful too. The time you both spend to post these videos is much appreciated. Thanks so much!! Enjoy the cooler temps, your craftings, and your busy life. Until next time, ❤ya, Donna

[@saltboxstitcher]

Thank you so much!!!

I’m impressed with your birthday gifts…the notebook and mug. So very thoughtful. You are a lucky lady and he is a lucky man. I’m 76 and lost my hubby nine years ago. He was a gem too! Your floss tubes are always enjoyable and one that I look forward to.

[@saltboxstitcher]

Thank you! I’m sorry for your loss, hubs will be 76 next week.

Your husband is definitely a keeper! What a wonderful job he is doing with the editing…none better on flosstube…in my opinion! So fun to see Sarah Turner behind you…one that I have on my stairwell wall. I stitched Sarah Turner in a week's time that included July 4th. Love, love, love your Flosstubes. Thank you for sharing your magnificent stitching efforts!

[@saltboxstitcher]

Oh thank you so much!!! When I originally started stitching Sarah I didn’t realize it was a “patriotic piece”. I just knew I liked it. 😝

I love that you don’t care what people think about your starts stash etc. I have most my collection since the 80s still Paula Vaughan etc and don’t care it’ll be here when I’m gone lol I told my daughter sell it or pull up a dumpster. I’ve enjoyed it in my lifetime. Plus I have given things away I wish I had back etc. your wips are awesome as are your finishes. You’re very inspiring. Thanks for visiting and sharing. You’re only one of a few I watch and stitches what I stitch.

[@saltboxstitcher]

So true! Thank you. I’ve given away charts but never a partially stitched piece. But who knows in the future??? Lol

[@pamlacey136]

Happy belated birthday!! Your husband was very thoughtful with his gifts, so nice. I am thrilled that you are doing some new starts; projects don’t get finished if they are never started. So go for it!! I would be doing the same if I was stitching more rather than quilting at the moment. I have so, so many WIPs that have not been touched in so long. There are so many that I would love to finish. I just don’t seem to have enough hours in the day to do it all! I am sure that you totally understand that. Enjoy each day no matter what you are doing. Hugs and blessings to you and your hubby…………………

[@saltboxstitcher]

Thanks so much Pam!!!

[@barbarahouser]

Sweet Carol, It was so good to see you again; you look lovely in that Fall orange color! I love Fall most of all! I know it must be tough to commit to a FlossTube every other week, and I totally understand Mr. Saltbox having other responsibilities but I could watch you every other day!!! I love spending time with you and your sweet editor. Now that my Mr. & I are both retired, we wonder how we ever had time to work; he does most of the errand runs and I stay home & stitch. He enjoys getting out and I enjoy being at home but we both enjoy being together. I hope you have a wonderful week and continue celebrating that birthday! Happy Stitching! xoxo

[@maryjosanchez2864]

Happy, Happy Birthday Carol! Have a Cheerful Year Full!! I always look forward to your floss tubes. You and your husband are awesome! Enjoy all your stitching, I know I sure do! Love ya, take care.

Aww that sounds wonderful! I’m definitely the stay at home one. And thanks for the compliment about wearing orange. Sometimes I have to check my last couple videos to see what I wore last time so I don’t repeat. Lol

That was a very thoughtful gift from your husband!!!! Happy belated birthday! Years ago I went to the Stitch and Frame that use to be my LNS, sadly they retired last year but on the wall was a shop model of Eliza Scattergood done 1x1 on 40ct so I bought all the supplies and started it at a retreat ….. I was almost finished with the house and had to frog it……. I snipped the linen right where the windows were. Well I had to pitch it. And I re bought the supplies and she’s been sitting in my pile of to do for soooo long . I am going to start her this coming new year. I think as a New Year start. You have some beautiful pieces to start I believe start all the things…… and when you finish something then that’s a celebration 🎉 Good to “see” again o always enjoy your videos.

[@saltboxstitcher]

I love that design. I actually started it already. But I can’t imagine doing it over one!!😬😳
