Flosstube #226 Two almost finishes - so close!

Oooh! I’ve been wanting to start a Lina Ova pattern for a long time but never thought about taking the outer border off. Now I’m obsessed! I see a new start in my near future (like today maybe!) Thank you once again for all your kind words about my fabric shop! I’m so glad you like the new colors you just got.

I so much enjoy all your stitching!! I'm excited about your Owl Forest Sampler. It's so close and so beautiful!!! Thank you for sharing your stitchy joy.

Enjoyed catching up as always Laura ( and good to see you last weekend on zoom). I LOVE you Owl Forest black smaller. It’s so close to a finish now!!!

I loved seeing all your blue fabrics. Blue is my favorite color and I feel like it is a great neutral also. I enjoyed hearing you say that! And thank you for sharing your Owl Forest sampler. I have purchased the chart after seeing your piece. So pretty… Thanks for sharing and happy stitching!

Just got caught up on your stitching.....such wonderful projects! the 21st is our 51st Wedding Anniversary....glad to share the day with Mo! Happy Stitching to you...see you next week.

Hi Laura. Black Vintage Sampler is looking awesome! Beautiful new fabrics. Enjoy time with your kids and hubby. And as always - peaceful stitching.

Your owl forest sampler is gorgeous! Love how you’re so honest about menopause brain. I totally understand. Just breathe thru it and keep stitching😘

Wow!!! So close on those- woohoo! Upcoming happy dancing!!! No pressure on the finishing as part of the Olympics...it is called Stitching the Olympics, not finishing the Olympics 😉 It'll be lovely whatever you do! Have a great weekend celebrating Mo and a great week with the girls! Happy Stitching friend!!

Hi Laura! Great stitching! I love the fabrics from Those Missing Stitches as well! Have a wonderful week!

Oh Laura - you enabled me with Dance with Nightfall which is a great fun stitch. Now the Lina Ova! Count me in - I just bought two! Gorgeous! Thanks LOL Also have a great visit with Meg and Liz!! And wishing Mo a Happy Birthday. Boy, you are busy this weekend!

Hi Laura😊. I've just seen a Lina Ova Mary Poppins completed stitch at the Stitch NJ retreat this past weekend. It was just a lovely stitch and a lovely design. The Anne of Green Gables looks equally as pretty! I haven't done many monochromatic pieces, but I have to say the ones I have done were very enjoyable to stitch. There is definitely a calming sense I get when stitching with one color. Hope you enjoy your weekend visit with the girls, and happy birthday to Mo!

Great to see you tonight Laura in a miserable Ireland. Summer has missed the memo here😢😢😢 Love watching all your stitching & listening to your plans. Life means I'm stitching on 324 by WorksbyABC as it's as much as I can concentrate on at the minute. Saw you on the Stitch Across the Pond zoom, my camera was acting up so I could see but not be seen. I agree, it is a lovely zoom call. Have a great week with your family. Take care, best wishes from 🇮🇪

Great stitching Laura. Yes, I am hoping to Stitch the Olympics - it will be the most exercise I have had. In fact, I’m just finishing up the Tour de France! Unfortunately I can’t do the summer retreat as my godson and his young family (3 yr old and 1 yr old) are coming for the weekend so with dogs that are not too happy with little people and a swimming pool I won’t be doing much stitching! Anyway, we don’t get to see them that often so it’s a treat. Enjoy Megan and Liz being with you and happy birthday to Mo. My birthday is on the 24th and hubby and I are off to a game lodge for a couple of nights. Happy stitching.

There are so many July birthdays! Happy Birthday to your husband and I hope you have a great time with your girls. My birthday was Thursday and we are having family time tomorrow to celebrate. I've added another chart to my want to stitch list after seeing Christmas Town. I have a friend who is a huge Aston Villa fan. You're making great progress on that piece. Take care

Such great progress on all your pieces. Enjoy your time with Meg & Liz, happy birthday to Mo!

🍀🍀🍀 our Wi-Fi/internet can be very hit and miss, it is most annoying, as it is usually playing up when you need it most, always a joy spending time with you Laura,

Great video!! Happy Birthday to Moe!!! So close to a finish on many projects!! Go Laura!! I think the submarine stitch would look nice on the darker of the blues! Will check out the Olympic challenge. Have a great weekend with the girls!!!

Hope you are enjoying your weekend with family and getting a little stitching in. I bought the Mary Poppins pattern but have yet to start it. I was taking off the outer border as well. Lol. Have a great week and happy stitching.

Hi Laura! Thanks for sharing your beautiful stitching! For the I.....Ink Circles, Imaginating (I'm using Bethlehem by Imaginating for my I); Ireland; island; something with icicles, igloo; stitching with an indigo color. I'm going to be stitching for the Olympics; however, I don't have anything slotted for the 7th....synchronized swimming....part of a SAL or recommended by another stitcher). I'm doing the 24HOCS....won't get 24 hours but stitching as much as I can. Happy Birthday to Moe! Happy Stitching!

I love your new fabrics. So beautiful. Always love your flosstube
