Oh Christine your projects look amazing. I love all the sounds in your video. I could sit and enjoy this all day! so peaceful and tranquil. You definitely keep busy and oh how fun to find so many antique things to repurpose, it is always a plus with those kinds of things, your quilt blocks will look beautiful with the choices you picked. It'll be fun to see your progress on it. thanks for sharing all your doing with us. It keeps me motivated.

Love that chicken cross stitch design at the beginning and the monkey spinning on your Swedish sampler isn’t that how we feel at times like a monkey trying to juggle all the different crafts,both new quilts are going to look great when finished and so lucky to get family quilts,nothing like that in our family.you are also looking really well

Hi Christine. You have the knack for finding antiques. I love the antique quilt blocks. They have fallen into caring hands and the quilt will be amazing. I have no family items and am in awe of your family quilts too. You enabled me and exile I was watching, I ordered the Teresa Kogut Remember Me. 😮 You have a bald eagle in your yard? Wow...beautiful! Love seeing what Agnes gets up to. I love her ornery ways! 😂 Happy stitching 🧵

You won’t regret it. It is fabulous. I just got lucky with those blocks. There was another set at a different booth that wanted a completely ridiculous amount of money. They are still there.

Wonderful flosstube😍 your sampler is gorgeous. The person on the chair is a monkey spinning the thread of life. Normally, Clotho did this. The meaning was that the world was a bit in disarray. You also have Joshua and Caleb returning from Caanan with the giant grape. Really lovely sampler.

Hello there, I was so happy to catch up with you and watch this video, excellent as always. I love your antique Swedish sampler - such a treasure and I will purchase once you have it ready. My husband has Swedish background - I have old family pictures of his and this would be great piece to show along with the photos. Love your quilt ideas, I am always so happy when I find a treasure at my favorite antiques stores - amazing the joy that brings us, thank you for sharing your finds. And I am so envious of you attending stiching retreats - not sure when that will happen for me. I have several of S. Nash - have that Christmas one with chickens - so adorable and I also have Merrily Merrily, not kitted, just here with the rest of my collection. I saw a cross stitch design by Lucy Beam; stitching like I'm immortal - will have to buy that pattern. That's how I think, somehow, I am going to stitch every pattern I have purchased in last 20 years - right...such silliness. Enjoy your day! Blessings my friend. Hoping to not stay current now with your flosstube.

I love your Swedish sampler - it was so exciting to see the back and those beautiful original colors. The thread was so shiny - was it silk do you think? I really enjoyed seeing all your projects and fabrics from the camera overhead - it was so much easier to see the details. Agnes is very cute - and very clever - and very, very naughty! Thank you for sharing!

You got some great finds on your trip, Christine! And that Swedish sampler is over the top! Don't laugh, but I almost think the figure with the crown looks like a bear! And don't laugh again, but is there something in Swedish lore that involves a bear with a crown? I don't know why, but it just seems to be in the recesses of my mind! Maybe someone else out there knows about this? Happy Spring to you! Hugs, Candace

Oh, Agnes is a naughty girl. So inquisitive but not the right place to inquire into! I noticed that you keep the cupboard closed with a rubber band that doesn’t even faze her. She’s still a beautiful cat even if she wrongly thinks everything is hers.

It depends really. I generally will go over two threads. But sometimes, like certain text in the pattern will require one. You might try ball point needles. It sounds crazy, but they really do help.
