  2. Have a wonderful time at your retreat! Enjoy your extra hour of stitching! Loved seeing all your stitching!!!!

  3. Doggonnit….I have a cold and canceled with Ginny to go to retreat, but I REALLY need that Swan Lake piece! Both my girls attended and worked there! So sad!!

  4. So happy to see you both. I can't wait for The Jingle Ball it is going to be so much fun!!! Thank you for sharing your talents with us, I enjoy your patterns so much. Have fun at your retreat!

  5. Thank you so much for showing the project bag and needle roll I made for you! The technical term is a magnetic cable tie. Lol

  6. The quilt is beautiful! I always purchase the Quilt and More Magazine but I really made it a priority once the Winter 2022 one was released because you had the pattern in it!! Enjoy your retreat! I am not done with the fist two pillow sets so do not worry about not releasing the winter set until January LOL Excited for Jingle Ball – missed getting into your class but I am sure it will still be fun.

  7. Love the video Cathy! Question – White Christmas – if I did that all on one piece, what would the stitch count be? Do you have that info on the website somewhere? I just found these and would love to start them for Christmas 🙂

  8. I watched it all, and I loved everything! You have to be the busiest designer of all, and so talented! Have a nice trip! Your husband and you make such a great team!

  9. Great video. Reminder of great designs. Off to look in HOD drawer. Have every design but not stitched everything. Love all your designs. Autumn Awaits is amazing. I went OMG. Can’t wait.

  10. What a terrific video you two! Thanks. Wrote a list! And thanks for the update about the aprons. Have a great weekend.

  11. How sweet that you were gifted the quilt! Love the design and would love to make the box. Glad you had a fun trip!

  12. You should go to Aldi this week and get their wine advent and they also have a beer advent. That might be fun. The wine advent pairs well with their cheese advent

  13. I love watching/listening to your happy hour videos. I love seeing all your lovely designs. Have a fun time at the retreat

  14. Glad to see you're better! Good luck on the new designs. I love to see all your designs, especially the beach ones. Because I'll always be a beach girl!

  15. Do you use the large chubby 28 oz can of diced tomatoes?
    Also do you use small or large block of cream cheese?
    It has to be good so I can say it's my recipe 🤣🤣….no I wouldn't do that either!
    Also do you add the spinach at the very beginning?
    Sorry for all the questions 😊

  16. Enjoy your retreat. Love all your designs. We all need more time in the day to stitch. 🪡🪡🪡

  17. I settled in to stitch the pincushion from Quilts & More and watch your FlossTube. I have already chosen my DMC following the magazine instructions of “just choose a grey, aqua…” so I may have to stitch it twice. 😂 I picked 3821, 322, 3816, 435 and 169. I kinda danced around the colors you intended…I really wish I had chosen 931. I will definitely try a Block Party next. 😉

  18. Enjoyed the trunk show but it reminds me how many of your charts I have but haven't stitched yet! I am a stitcher and quilter so now I want a pattern for that beautiful quilt too! Enjoy your retreat.

  19. Swan Lake I am going to check that out for next year. I live on the Black Hills Side of South Dakota and have wanted to do a retreat. Thanks for the information and great Video. Love your charts.

  20. That was fun……I haven't seen some of those older designs. Thanks for doing this video. I'm currently working on The Autumn Basket – Triple Play after having completing The Summer Basket. I love this series, especially combined with some quilting! I know The Winter Basket will be beautiful as well and I would wait an eternity for it. I am so thankful for our talented designers in this industry. Please go at a pace that is right for you and your personal life. Life is too short.

  21. Always love catching up with you two! And what a treat to see your trunk show. I'm super excited about your upcoming plans. Looking forward to 2023 to see what you have in store for us!

  22. Was so nice to see you both again! Love the flosstubes you make. I love the way you work so well together! Apparently love is my word of the day! I have to keep correcting it from live to love. Have a fun retreat! Your soup sounds good although in western MD it’s on the warm side again. Somehow soup is especially good when it’s cold. Crusty bread sounds good too. 🍁🍁🍁🌲🌲

  23. Hello you two, thanks so much for your visit…enjoyed seeing the trunk show…loved the project bag and needle roll…loved the information on the Jingle Ball…so sorry for the hand surgery and hope the therapy helps tremendously…I can understand the pace should be changed to help the pressure of deadlines…looking forward to the pincushions in quilting magazine…wishing you the best and happy stitching ❣️

  24. I loved seeing all of your charts. I’m glad your hand is doing better. Looking forward to what you have cooked up for next year. ❤

  25. I enjoyed watching the both of y’all today and recap of all your beautiful patterns. Have a wonderful weekend and happy stitching 😊🧵🪡🤗🤩
