Saltbox Stitcher [Episode 112] Jello - Bunnies - Happy Easter

Testelestai - "It is Finished"... The next to the last words of Jesus Christ on the Cross. We all like bunnies and easter egg hunts... just don't loose site of what the celebration of Easter is really all about... Jesus Christ came on a rescue mission, to pay the penalty imposed by a just and righteous Father, so that there is a path to restore a broken relationship with HIM.
May all those that "hear" and "respond" be blessed with that redemption.

Carol, thanks for the sewing tip for curves. Here is a lesson for you from a Biology teacher 🤓 the primary difference between a moth and a butterfly lie in the colors of their wings. One is nocturnal, the moth, and so its coloring is muted often browns, grays, drab colors. The butterfly is a creature of the day and it’s colors are often bright like the flowers around it. Both provide combinations of camouflage and identification to other moths/butterflies. While in cross stitch, we sometimes choose whatever color we want for a motif, the colors are the primary source of identification. So, if the designer is being true to the creature’s nature, their colors should reflect that as well. hope you find that interesting

[@saltboxstitcher]

Very interesting!! I probably learned this at some point but had long since forgotten!! Thank you!

[@jeanakimball5691]

Just love your videos, along with your detours! I always have my own plan that, compared to you, is painfully slow stitching. Then you post another video and I have to stop right in the middle and go chasing “squirrels!” - Maria Humphrey (in my stash), Whew. Thank you for the energy and enthusiasm you bring to all of us on such a regular basis. I just heard on another floss tube yesterday that your name has been officially (in the cross stitch community) changed to Carol Saltbox.😃💕

[@saltboxstitcher]

Aww thanks!! I’m on a mission to finish some of my WIPs but I too get inspired by others. Lol! I do know that some have referred to me as Carol Saltbox. Too funny!!!

[@joanratcliff7155]

Thank you for sharing what our Savior did for all on the cross. The real reason we celebrate Easter. Your stitching is fabulous and humor priceless. God bless.

[@saltboxstitcher]

Thank you so much!

[@helenhoutchen]

Carol, it boggles my mind to watch you with all your projects in progress and completed. It's amazing. Blessings to you and your family and the bigger family around the world this Easter as we celebrate the Lamb of God incarnate.

[@saltboxstitcher]

[@rosemorrill5690]

I am so amazed how much stitching you do or anyone else who do all those big samplers ❤

[@cherylhobson6633]

I love your floss tubes Miss. Carol. Thank the Professor for all he does behind the scenes! I have no idea how long it would take to start and finish a sampler but I bought one from Colorado shop today. You have inspired me! I will hang on and hope I can finished it before I turn 70! Thank you so much for your floss tube! I have missed you!!!❤

[@saltboxstitcher]

That’s wonderful!!! I hope you enjoy stitching your sampler!!!

[@dollyyarborough2918]

Hello from NC Carol….once again I found myself talking to you through my television, telling you how gorgeous your pieces are…I truly feel like I’m visiting a dear friend. Thank you for that Carol. I love to stitch bunnies too, and did the tulip piece..love it! Loved the pictures of Bailey…she is so sweet. Happy Easter to you and your family Carol. Thank you for being a bit of sunshine when our world seems to make little sense at times.

[@saltboxstitcher]

[@sheilalovesgreg3489]

Hi Carol, I finished and framed my springs promise that you showed a couple videos ago and also my summer that Holly Berry Farm is at Hobby lobby right now being framed. Next time going to do Christmas at Holly Berry Farm. Stacy may have the spring one looking like she does because she lives in Indiana like me and it’s very brown till about late April/ May. Amen & Amen! Praise the risen, Lord.

[@saltboxstitcher]

Yes I agree! I Grew up in Missouri so I get the brown early spring!!! I love all of the Stacy Hollyberry pieces!! I’d love to see your framed piece when it’s finished. Send me a direct message pic on IG. ❤️

Testelestai. What a beautiful word from our Lord & Savior. Thank you so much for sharing your stitching and the Light within you. I count it a wonderful blessing to spend time with you and wish you lived next door. Boy, could we be Enablers in our own world!! Happy Easter and Happy Stitching. xoxo

Thank you! You too!

[@desireepheister2633]

Thank you for encouraging the celebration of the true meaning of Easter. It's my favorite holiday of the entire year -- it's the reason I am who I am! Your stitching is delightful as usual and the time with you is precious as always. Blessings to you. He is Risen!

[@saltboxstitcher]

Amen! Such a glorious truth!

[@BellatrexLestrange]

I just finished Tulip Festival 2 days ago one of the first charts I purchased when i went back to stitching. I loved it. I did the majority of the stitching in the car on our way to South Carolina from Massachusetts. Long trip!

[@loisschumacher9869]

FINALLY got to watch your video starting yesterday & finishing this morning!!! As always so much stitchy beauty! But I must say I REALLY LOVED your closing comment about Easter & appreciate your sharing it with us! Thank you & God bless!

[@ritah7457]

So many beautiful pieces to drool over! Love Blackbird Designs, Summer Garden that you showed. I immediately hopped off the video to see if I could find it. Not even on eBay. 😩 Another difference besides the wing color is from their antenna shape. Butterflies are long & thin while the moth has a feathery antenna.

[@rose2fame1]

Hi Carol, I like your blackbird patterns and wips. I like the green pears. Have a great weekend.

[@marionvandesande6382]

Oh Carol, I just love all your floss tubes. Have a happy Easter with all your loved ones and be back soon!

[@pauletteharris5759]

I am always so delighted when I see a video from you, Carol! I like many of the same FTs as you (and thank you for Sully Stitches)! I love seeing what you are working on. Ms Cheetham is magnificent! Have a blessed and wonderful Easter! Thanks as always and happy stitching.

[@saltboxstitcher]

Oh thank you!

[@lesliehurley-phatcatphloss1754]

Beautiful stitching and fun to watch as always! I love watching lots of the same folks as you do. Who doesn’t always want to stitch Blackbird, LOL!?!?!

[@saltboxstitcher]

Thank you so much! Love your channel too, I shouldn’t mention any FT because then I forget ones like yours that I watch regularly!!! ❤️

Hi Carol-great video as usual -your stitching is beautiful and inspiring. As a Roman Catholic I appreciate your message at the end. Have a Blessed Easter with your family❤

[@kayhelland9599]

Never tire of seeing Miss Cheetham. You have been a blessing to my cross stitch journey since my quilting BFF passed in 2020. I haven’t been able to quilt since but I’m so grateful that I “fell” into cross stitch. ❤

Hi Carol, Thank you for sharing all of your beautiful work. You really do like the full coverages, don't you? Thank you for your closing remarks. As a believer it was nice to hear from another believer about why Jesus came and died for us. BE BLESSED.......😊😊😊

[@beckyess7399]

Easter blessings to you and Mr. Saltbox. 🙏❤🙏 I love those borders you’ve been working on. You are correct: They are not boring! Details in borders make such a difference in samplers, and really serve to enhance the finished project. Nice work! You’re also right about this being a disease. LOL! My husband told one of my stitchy friends that he thinks this is a cult. 😂 It’s sure a fun cult! See you next time! ❤

[@janoechler-kirschbaum-eh9ln]

Loved your sharing! Beautiful work and your deliveries. It IS a disease!!!🤣🤣🤣

Thank you for the tip on how to get the seams on curved finishes to lay smoother. As always your stitching is beautiful. Have a blessed Easter.

Carol, I enjoy watching you and your huge pile of stitching in progress and your enormous stash. I get overwhelmed with too many WIPs. I started Brenda Gervais’ Jellybean Jubilee booklet. I am going to stitch all of those in that book. They are all adorable! Happy Easter to you and your husband. 🐰

Too many beautiful stitches to pick out one to comment on. Your work and progress is awesome and so fun to see. I did chuckle when you mentioned Mr. Saltbox brought the new lawn mower into the house! Thank you for taking time to video and share with us.

Happy Easter! Hope your day is blessed. I certainly have the disease. I for some reason have been starting...blue pears, Summer Saltbox, Molly's hands, ND Blooming Bunnies. The others are waiting their turn. Enjoy all your beautiful stitching.

[@deeakins-stitcher]

You are such a blessing to the CS community. I could watch you everyday. Your large almost finish is gorgeous and my first thought was “She had got to frame this one asap” and then you said you will have this one framed!

[@carolfawcett1297]

Happy to see you today! I love all of your Brenda Gervais smalls! She does have so many amazing small designs, and they are so cute! It is always enjoyable to see your large samplers! I have to give you credit for doing so much sawtooth satin stitch border! I just finished Rejoice Evermore which has 2 rows of sawtooth and it took me a few days to do that! I had to frog one row out the first time due to so many wonky mistakes, but I finally got it right! I had saved this for the last as I was dreading doing it! It is pretty, but a pain to stitch! Have a blessed and wonderful Easter! Thank you for telling everyone that it isn’t about the bunnies and lambs.

[@Kitchensurprise]

I stitch so many bunnies I think they might be my spirit animal 😂

[@loloknits8418]

Thank you for sharing all of your beautiful stitching and plans. I found it a little ironic that I was struggling through a sawtooth border on Rejoice Evermore by Brenda Gervais. I had saved it for last because it is so tedious. I did manage to finish it ( and it ended on the right stitch while watching your video! Everything you said about sawtooth borders is so true! They are beautiful though.

[@saltboxstitcher]

So true!

[@karenlynch3556]

I laughed when you said your husband brought his new lawnmower into the house. Mine loves to bring in his new purchases like that, just to “look” at. 😂
