I feel thankful and blessed to watch your videos and beautiful stitching. I am so sorry for your loss.

Debra, I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope your stitching can be a comfort to you. I love viewing your videos and your beautiful stitching is an inspiration to me.

Hi Debra! I just found you on flosstube and somehow knew what you were going to say when you talked about being absent for 6 months and getting the elephant out of the room. I just lost my husband on Jan. 2 and I am left here with my cat, Tiger, and Bennie, my dog, and my stitching and flosstube. I feel so blessed to have my stitching friends on flosstube and my cross stitch to keep my sanity. I agree with you in that I can’t just stop life and I am determined to press on and try to find things to love and enjoy each day!! Your WIPs are just beautiful!!!

Love & Hugs!! I love Bullwinkle. All your work is so beautiful. I so appreciate your sharing. Brings me joy.

So happy to see you and your beautiful stitching... words can not express how sorry I am for the loss of your soul mate. Take care of yourself as you go through your healing process and enjoy that new stitching buddy!

Just found your channel. Late BUT I’m so sorry about your husband. My first husband died 25 years ago this coming October. He was only 38. His passing out of this world and my life still hurts and makes me cry even though I “moved on” with a new husband and children. His life was a blessing to me. I hope you are well!

I am so sorry for the loss of your husband. Prayers for you daily. Very happy to see you and know you are stitching. God Bless.

So sorry to hear about your loss. Its lovely to see you back again. I find your videos so inspiring

I am so sorry for your loss. I am very happy to see you back. I too am stitching McChristmas. The beard has been the biggest challenge for me too, but I love the pattern. I also have the calendar and if I had thought of it in time, it would have been great for stitch mania. Maybe next year. Your stitching is incredible and as I have started Sparkling Peacocks as my first Chatelaine, I look forward to watching your progress. I am looking forward to your next video. Take care.

So sorry to hear about your husband. I hope you are bearing up okay. I lost my brother in February and stitching has really helped to cope.

There are no words Debra....so sorry for your loss. I am glad you have your stitching and your kitty to help you in this dark time. I always enjoy your videos and I missed you but now I understand that you had very important matters to attend to these last months. I have to say, that Moose just made me smile!

So sorry for your loss. Sending hugs and prayers.

So good to see you back again. Hoping you’ll continue to make videos as you feel like it - I always enjoy seeing all your projects, especially those amazing Chatelaines! Also just wanted to say again how sorry I was to hear about your husband. I can’t imagine how tough it’s been - but we are all thinking of you! ❤️.

I just happened upon your podcast and cannot tell you how extremely sorry I am for your loss. The day before yesterday they had to take my husband to the hospital by ambulance. I praise God for all of His blessings because I have him home now. We have many more tests to go through and one or two surgeries. I will definitely be praying for you. I am a knitter but have just recently returned to counted cross stitch. The joy and fun of it returned immediately and I’ve learned the “railroad” stitch. Never knew that before. Rest easy and I look forward to your next video. Shalom....Beverly

It is lovely to see you back here. Continue being the strong and inspiring lady that you are xx

My dear Debra how sorry I am for the loss of your husband. There are just no words for such a loss. I admire you so much for your determination and strength. You will be in my daily prayers. As always your stitching looks wonderful. Thankful to have you back and I hope you continually receive every encouragement from your stitching friends and know how much we all care.

sending warm thoughts your way.

Hugs and prayers from the Philippines.

Oh Debra, I can’t imagine your pain. After 38 years with Mark I often reflect on that very thing. What a great testimony you have my friend. I have not watched much flosstube so I am sorry I did not know. You are one to be looked up to. I don’t know that I would be as composed as you are my dear. I thank God for our fur babies and hobby activities to help us through the awful time. 💗🙏🙏💗Patty Quigley

I love your McChristmas .. he is adorable and what beautiful stitching you do. It takes time and a lot of healing to go through all you have so I am sending prayers your way to comfort you if you don't mind. My brother died in January and I know how hard it is especially for his wife. Keep your chin up dear and know that people around you care. I have to say I admire you for doing the Sleeping Beauty's Castle. You must have a world of patience because it looks hard to do. I have never tried stitching, I do diamond painting but I sure admire the people that do.

I have that moos kit in my stash! Bought is just a couple months ago. Thanks for the tip about the thread amount.

I've been enjoying your videos and I am so sorry to hear about your husband 's passing. I wish I could give you a hug, but my prayers, and best wishes I am sending. Your chatalaines are so beautiful.

Super sized hug and condolences. I am starting my Medieval Town Mandala for my 60th birthday June 18th. I have put it off long enough; mostly getting comfortable with the fabric. I still - and probably will forever - prefer aida. I bought the evenweave and threads and beads from European Cross Stitch for this one. So away we go LOL 8-) I may take you up on your offer if I get confused or stuck along the way. Your finish was phenomenal. OMG Bullwinkle, brings back fond Sat. morning cartoon memories.

So sorry for your loss. You will be in my prayers.

I am so sorry for your loss. I love the elf. he is soooo cute!

Sending virtual hugs. Sending blessings

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. We are stronger than we know. I am glad you are back.

I'm sorry to hear about the passing of your husband.You were missed. Mr. Whiskers and stitching will be a great comfort.

Hugs. My thoughts are with you.

Hello, I was thrilled to see you back on Floss tube. Then I was saddened to hear of your great loss. Please know we will lift you up in prayer. I will light our prayer candle for you. Please know that you will be thought of and prayed for. Please accept my sincere and heartfelt sympathy. May you be bathed in Grace & Goodness. Hugs, Daleen

Debra your Bullwinkle is spectacular. We know the pictures never do justice to the stitch but oh my. I love him 😍

omg. I love the moose too!

Hi Debra, please accept my condolences. I do love watching your videos and I am glad you are moving on. You are a very, very strong woman and watching you, though I do not know you personally, tells me you will get through this. You are an inspiration to a lot of people. xo tina

I’m so sorry to hear of your husband’s passing. But I’m so glad to see you here on KZfaq again. Your finishes and wips are beautiful. May you find comfort and beauty in every stitch.

Hopefully, we'll get to see a second part. I was looking forward to seeing your purchases. I'm so sorry for your loss. I will pray for you as this transition continues. Take care and happy stitching!

Hi, just finding your podcast. My heart goes out to you, I know what you are going through. My husband was sick last year, got progressively worse, hospitals in December/January, Nursing home February 1, passed away Feb. 9. It is so hard. You are correct you can never be ready, I miss him so much. I have to sell our home, and change so much. We did not have much, now I have less in so many ways. We can do this, virtual hugs. Take care of yourself. My thoughts are with you....

I'm so very sorry for the loss of your husband. My prayers go out to you.

I'm so very sorry for your loss.

I am so sorry for the loss of your husband. There is never enough time to prepare for that, and it is a long road to recover some semblance of normality afterwards. I am so happy to see you back...I always look forward to your videos. I admire your positive attitude.

So glad to hear and see you again. You are one fabulous stitcher and a witty, encouraging, helpful person. Love your videos and all the information you impart to us!! Thanks and have a great upcoming weekend.

Debra, I’m just now catching up with your videos. I’m so sorry to hear about your husband. I love all your projects.

I missed seeing you. I am very sorry for the loss of your husband. My sincerely condolences, I didn’t know. It’s good to see you stitching again. I’m excited to watch your beautiful chatelaine come to life! Have a good day!

I am so sorry for your loss, I know what you are going through, it has been 8 months for me and it is very hard. take care will be thinking of you God bless

I was so happy to see that you were doing a flosstube again. I really missed seeing your beautiful stitching. I am so sorry to hear about your husbands passing. I am sure it has been difficult for you, but keep stitching it will help. Prays coming your way, sincerely Liz

Hello. First time viewer. So sorry for your loss. Loved wips and finishes. Would you please reply with the McChristmas pattern when you get the chance. No rush just really cute pattern.

I'm so sorry for you loss. Stitching can be great therapy! I love seeing your Chatelaines and so glad to see you back. I have missed your updates. Hugs!

So happy to see you back on here and glad that you are back stitching, it is great therapy. Big hugs Debra, we love you xx

Wonderful to see you on Flosstube again! Your finishes are adorable. I have to say, you know I adore seeing your pic updates, but there is something about seeing them in your videos...when you hold up your Chatelaines that helps to translate the scale of the project really well for me. Also am impressed with your progress in the reindeer antler village. LU2P 😘♥️😊

Hi, I have done that hardest of journeys and I had no time to prepare, but I’m glad because the dread would have been worse. There isn’t really time to prepare. I lost Glyn in 2004 and I still miss him although my story has a happy ending as I am remarried to a widower so we helped each other to stand up again. I would be only too happy to write to you if you would like to. Just email me and I’ll get back to you. I’m sorry for your loss and I hope life throws you something sweeter. Life just changes so much. My first handyman job was to mend the toilet seat. There was a lot of swearing and shouting involved but I changed it so I was successful. Loved seeing your work, it’s always beautiful. And I’ve missed seeing you. Love and hugs Sara 😊💕🌷

❤️❤️❤️

So wonderful to see you back on here! You are doing amazing and as always all your stitching is so beautiful. Sending Love.have missed youX

You were in my thoughts two days ago! I was wondering if all was ok with you. I'm so sorry for your loss. Please accept warm and friendly hugs across the miles. Your Chatelaine is just gorgeous. I love your Christmas stitching, too.

Debra lots and lots of hugs to you. You can do this just trust in the Lord.

It is so good to see you back on YT even if it's not cooperating. I'm so sorry for the loss of your husband and glad you have stitching and a new kitty to focus on each day.

So sorry about your husband. I, too, lost my husband fairly suddenly in September of 2016. Tomorrow would have been our 30th wedding anniversary. I found my stitching the best therapy. Great finds at the thrift store. Peace.

Hi Debra. So good to see your face. I’m so sorry about your husband. Can’t wait to see you in NJ! For some reason I was unsubscribed. ?? So, I resubscribed. ♥️♥️♥️

I feel bad for you and your loss. What is the name of the ETSY shop you bought your McChristmas at? I have searched and I cannot find it. Thank you.

I’m so sorry for your loss, my condolences.....❤️

Six months has been too long. I find the stitching community to be amazing when a tragedy occurs - like you said the notes, messages, etc. You are in my thoughts and hurray for Mr. Whiskers

I missed you and now I know why... I am very sorry to here about your husband. Good on you that you are taking care of yourself by moving forward. I am sure your husband is smiling and very proud. That moose piece is something I have never seen before. Very unique. So is that Christmas gnome. Going to watch part 2.

Blessings Debra. Happy to see you again and that you have a new furbaby.

Hi, Debra. You have been on my mind lately, and I'm so happy to see you again. I am so sorry for your loss. Even though you know the ned is going to be horrible, I have found that the reality far exceeds our imagination. It's really shitty. Glad you're doing OK and keeping busy, and Mr. Whiskers is just darling. Take care. Patty

I am so sorry for the loss of your husband. It.s a good thing you have your crossstitch to keep you busy. You are working on a lot of beautiful designs! Can you please tell me the name of the etsyshop that sells McChristmas? I can't find it and i think it is adorable.

My heart sank for your husband and your love passing. I am so sorry, Debra.

My heart goes out to you, Debra....hugs....
