I like the second one that goes in the box best for your Stitching in July :)

Thank you Anna for your delightful entertainment and kindness! You are a Star! And thank you Fat Quarter Shop for their generosity! Loved the Sisters Quilt Show when I had the chance to go …have a Fabulous week!

I enjoy your floss tubes. It’s like listening to a friend over coffee. Star of Wonder😊

Thank you for sharing the Star of Wonder stitch along with Fat Quarter Shop. I’m going to check the quilt along also.

Thanks for giving me a great laugh!!! You are the STAR 💖! Have a great time in SISTERS... So excited for you. Ohhhh, the peacock is GORGEOUS. Enjoy your day. Love you🙏

You’re a star who is so easy to listen to while I stitch. And, yes, you’re also an enabler. 😅 Definitely the Brenda Gervais! I do Christmas in July so I have less stress in December. I’m stitching ornaments all month for family. ❤ Happy stitching, friend.

Love visiting with you Anna… you are the Rock Star of Stitch Roadies…and Quilting Roadies… it is in my quilting world where Christmas in July resonated… have started projects, participated in classes or go on a shop hop for Christmas themed ‘to do’s’ 🚙🪡 🇺🇸. Enjoy your next adventure of the summer 😉

Your always our star sticker in our book....so happy watching you....please take care and be safe

Have a great time at the quilt show! I don't generally stitch Christmas in July, I tend to stitch seasonally but I like the box for sure. and the Star of Wonder should be fun!

Anna, I so enjoy listening to your flosstube. I was born and raised in Woodburn, Oregon but live in Kansas City, Mo now. Your stories and pictures make my soul stir with memories and feelings for “ home”. My oldest daughter and family moved back to Salem and now. I have a reason to travel back. I will be coming in for the Sisters Quilt show next week …my daughter is showing two of her original designed quilts! You will see that she loves stars! Then we will be visiting Acorns and threads for my crossstitch needs, and the quilt store at Cannon Beach..another favorite of both of us. Hope to see you roaming around in Sisters on Friday or Saturday. Thanks for your relaxing chit chat. You seem like an old friend!

You are my star of the day. I was bent over laughing at the cup size for the pin cushion. Wish you lived next door to me.

Star ⭐️ I am doing this mystery now! Love Fat Quarter Shop with the fabrics and cross stitch and all I will be headed to bankruptcy court 😂😜. Thanks a bunch Anna!!

Hey Anna, You’re a star for finding your cover picture! Beautiful garden thanks for sharing.

Loved your beautiful garden. Wonderful place to look at the stars.

I love listening to you talk while you stitch. I can't wait to hear all the excitement from the Sisters Quilt show. star

I’m working on that Teresa Kogut piece, too, Anna!🇺🇸 It’s a big project, for sure! Loving seeing some other floss tube friends showing their finishes of ‘Land That I Love’!

Star! We all shine like a pretty Star. Enjoy quilt week next week

Love the water element in your garden. Thanks for enabling the possibility of more fabric . . . Star.

In my eyes you are definitely a STAR among flosstubers!

Oh my goodness, you were in rare form today! Except not so rare because you never fail to make me laugh. Your channel is definitely my 5 star show not to be missed! And you are most definitely in my spice rack😊🩷 Your garden is lovely!

Quaker Christmas. I know that would be so beautiful for your Christmas stitch. Star

Anna, you are a rock star in flosstube and quilting world. I have moved frames etc from place to place. Still trying to find a better spot. You have encouraged me to read more. Have a wonderful time in Sisters. Hope to get there someday.

I so enjoy your videos. It is a visit with a friend. Your garden is beautiful. I would love to sit out in it and watch the first star of the night come out.

I really enjoy a good mystery stitch along! Star of Wonder sounds fun!

Another great visit with a star of Flosstube! Thank you for showing us your garden - it's gorgeous and inviting. I'd like to see you make some progress on your Christmas Quaker this month. I hope you are having a great week!

⭐ Star⭐I love the Brenda Gervis project!!! I so enjoyed your video... the perky pin keep was funny!!! Your garden yard are amazing 😊 Thank you for entertaining and enabling me ❤

Hello! Loved the vid! My daughter and I were recently in Sisters OR. Such a beautiful wee town. Charming and full of fun shops. I told her all about the quilt show and we visited the Stitch’n Post. Great experience! I vote Brenda Gervais! She is a STAR designer. I have many of her patterns. Hugs from California!

Oh, your garden is so lovely - peaceful - relaxing.... Wish I could stop watching you and Alex A. so much and try to finish some of my MANY whips and get My Back Room more organized. Am 92+ but maybe someday.

I am stitching along with the FQS's Christmas quilting and cross stitching this month. I hope there is at least one star in each of the patterns!

I like Ole Tannenbaum. I think we say Christmas in July because it takes us at least that long to get a Christmas project done! You’re a star, Anna!

A super star must have designed your back garden, it’s FABULOUS! Annnd so are your flosstubes🤭

And thank you for the garden tour. So lovely!

Hi happy 4th thanks for being on today I love the 2nd crosstich and you are the star of crosstich and quilting from Indiana love your back yard just lovely

My favorite way to stitch is to roll my fabric and put a small clip for fabric at each end and stitch in hand. My designated stitch is done while I sit in bed. Your a rock star in the stitching world. When I'm having a rough day I visit with my mom and tell her today I choose joy. My husband starts chemo and radation monday so I'm going to need all the joy. We are going to get a Yorkie puppy Saturday so that will be fun. I don't do Christmas in July. My birthday July 14th. I like the O Tanananbaum. Your garden is beautiful ❤. Love ya

You are a rock star of stitching!!! You inspire me to get back to cross stitch!!!

Anna, you never fail to entertain me on a regular basis! Star quality is your forte! I always find something to giggle about w/your cute stories! Thanks for all the 'talks' and inspiration!!

I love stitching and listening to your flosstube. You are a rock star! OH I hope you chose to do the Brenda Gervais Christmas pattern!

Thank you Anna for your great stories. You are like the neighbor we all want. You are such a star. 😊

You are a STAR and I vote for the TANNENBAUM stitch!

Thanks for sharing the views of the lovely garden!

It is okay to have a month without completing every Star. I vote the second Christmas stitch, such a lovely piece .

Your a star at the 2 handed stitching. Enjoy your time at Sisters and your “tree” class, I’m sure it will be just as fantastic as your other “trees “. OMG 😆 such a laugh on the pincushion “d or a” 😂. I vote for the O Tannenbaum stitch. Your back yard looks like a great oasis.

I used to stitch two-handed in all needlework endeavors and was able to accomplish so much more. Now I have Essential Tremor in my left hand and have embraced the slow stitch movement. It’s just as satisfying and while I don’t accomplish as many projects, at almost 70 years old, I no longer have the wall space for a multitude of framed pieces. Happy July 4th, Anna!

You are a star. I enjoy your stories and the calm way that you share your story. Thank you for your videos.

So glad that you found a way which works well for you with your Lowry stand. You are so correct about tools not working the same for everyone and every circumstance. The Paris piece will be like a mini postcard! Oh my stars! You cracked me up about the peacock pin cushion :)! My favorite fabric is 36 count linen and yes, it does help with the size sometimes :). I have been doing two handed stitching for decades. Of course practice will help, but I also suggest, if you aren't already, putting your dominant hand on the bottom and un-dominant hand on top. Since you are more used to finely controlling your dominant hand, it is easier if it is hidden than if your non-dominant hand is hidden. Watching you stitch, I also suggest tightening the fabric. You don't have to be able to bounce a dime, but having it taunt seems to help me with coming up from the bottom side. I do not usually purposefully do Christmas in July but I do randomly work on Christmas ornaments or gifts when I'm in the mood (ha ha!). I am more pulled to the box of little Christmas smalls - mostly because I would enjoy celebrating each finish and maybe you would even finish the one you have begun. The Quaker one seems more like some time as a dedicated stitch would be needed - and maybe not until it's finished, give it a month at a time - it's so large and daunting! Happy stitching - enjoy your lovely garden!

I like the idea of giving myself a star for a completed object. I plan some things, but mostly also just put one foot in front of the other. 😊💛🧡

Enjoy your talks an stiching love star patterns cross stitch an quilting ones

FQS is a star! They are so generous to your viewers!

As always, great projects. I vote for Oh Tannenbaum. Your garden is pretty, love the little creek in back. I always look up to see a star, it means a loved one that has passed is watching over you. Marilyn

You are a star to me! Thanks so much for your awesome Roadies❤

I hope you are having a wonderful holiday! You might be worried about your convoluted stories, but I come back for them. You are a star and I love all your videos. I have been your fan before you even started your quilt videos. For your stitching, I think the Brenda Gervais piece would be best. The fabric is smaller (if you’re thinking of your week being when you are at Quilters Affair) and the Quakers seem like they would require more brain concentration. Good luck with your decision.

What a ray of sunshine and a “star” you are Anna. Such lovely company. Keep safe and well. Love Gail xx ❤

You are a cross stitch star, and I love seeing what you do. I'm voting for O Tannenbaum for your Christmas stitch. I came across a project I have a small start on, so I might work on it for Christmas in July this year. I'm going to see my grands first of August, and it's been 3 years, so I can't imagine the changes that I'll see. I understand all those wonderful stories so well.

The star of your next designated stitch is O Tannebaum. Love your garden!!

The "The Star of Wonder" stitch sounds wonderful. Please include my in your drawing!!

Your garden seems so peaceful - love the sound of the waterfall. I would do the Christmas project that fits in the wooden box since you already have it, and it takes more room to store it! I’m sure it will be a STAR in your holiday decorating.

Love your rambling stories you are a flosstube star! Have a stitchy week

Christmas in July, definitely the second stitch. I loved the idea of the box when you got it, and think it will look gorgeous displayed on a shelf or bench at Christmas.

D cup...🤣😂🤣😂 I enjoy your videos so much, thank you! What a lovely peaceful garden. 😘

Hi Anna, I SO enjoyed today’s Flosstube. I had to hit the rewind button, multiple times, to be certain of what I was hearing…D cup and A cup and perkiness absolutely got me to stop multitasking (I’m kitting up a new stitch). I’m participating in Christmas in July for the first time; FQS Star of (my first SAL!), the Primrose Cottage Stitches 2024 Snowman and a Winter Sampler. My vote is for Brenda Gervais. I LOVED your garden tour, but not quite as much as my pup, Cooper🤣 he literally jumped up on my craft table to get a better view🐶🐾❤️ Have a happy and safe 4th of July❤️🤍💙

I enjoy your flosstube so much! I hope you give yourself a star every time you share one with us. I would love to see you stitch the Christmas Quaker in July. I stitch Christmas anytime of the year. In fact I’m working on a stocking now, for our newest grandson. He’s due on Thanksgiving day! Happy 4th and happy stitching!

Hi anna, thanks for another video. I can never remember where iI put things. You always make me laugh, we are kindred spirits. lol I loved the opening photo of the duck. I have a pond on my property as well but it is full of bullfrogs and painted turtles. Fat quarter shops star of wonder is so pretty. I would like to make that quilt. Have a great week, Happy stitching.

I think Christmas Quaker 2 would be my Christmas in July Stitch, in one week of evening stitching you could make a lot of progress. They are both wonderful projects. Next month I hope you will get a STAR in your book of days. I have never tried stitching with two hands, I’ve always just used a hoop. Your garden is beautiful, I love listening to the sound of the water and birds. Thanks for sharing your time!

Brenda Gervis is my vote for your Christmas in July. That is stunning. I’d like to see that finished.😊

You are the star of your own show. Stitch however and what you want. You are an enabler so be happy about that. O Tannenbaum. This is the first year I’m doing Christmas in July and enjoying it.

Christmas Quaker is my choice for you to stitch. On my list of you tube videos to watch, your 2 videos have the biggest star. Backyard is stunning, how do you have time to stitch, the maintenance of it must be time consuming. Thank you for sharing your life and stitching with us. Also enjoy all the books.

A star is fun to stitch. Thank you for sharing your talents.

You crack me up! A cup pin cushion, LOL! You are a rock STAR in my book.

What a beautiful garden! Love listening to you …very relaxing.

I need to hop on over to FQS and download that Star of Wonder stitch along pattern release. Sounds really fun! Happy Independence Day! ❤🤍💙

I love your flosstube! So much fun! You’re a star on KZfaq!:)

I love your book of days and all of your "stars". I do two-handed stitching. It comes more naturally than the other option and a whole lot faster. I found that it didn't take all that long to get used to..........no learning curve. I vote for Brenda's piece!!!!!!! BEAUTIFUL garden. I'd be plunking a chair right out next to that babbling water feature with a good book or some hand work and a cuppa tea and not want to leave till the first snowflake showed up. Blessings to you and G.

I am doing the star of wonder project too. love FQS love watcing your videos both cross stitch and quilting

Love your chats! I never done a stitching for a Christmas in July, but I love both of stitching you picked, the one for the box my favorite. Enabling I enjoy. I watch your quilt roadies and your stitching too, I just have a wonderful time listening and watching you. I decided watching you today I’m going to get on the band wagon with the star stitch along. Already ordered the floss and the needle minder for it. While watching you today. Thanks for all you do hun, Have a safe wonderful 4th July.

I tried two handed stitching, but just can't do it, so anyone who can is surely a star in my book. Always look forward to your videos each week!

Your garden is the star of the show!!

You are my star and have really encouraged me in my cross stitching. I have only been at it for just over a year. I also started my first Mill Hill ornament, I had to watch a video first. Oh well that’s how I learn.

Thanks for touring us in your gardens

I love the 2nd one. The SAL sounds fun. Star of wonder Beautiful garden.

Anna you are a shining Star in my book. Happy Stitching and Quilting. Happy 4th from Tucson!!!

Anna I love ❤️your garden! 10 ⭐️

You are a star wonder I’d love to stitch along with you😊

Hey there beautiful lady. I enjoyed this video. I’m so drawn to ur stitching stand. I would never b able to do something’s that large. I use a John James Twin Pointed Quick Stick Needles. U use both ends of the needle. It makes my life a lot easier. Have u ever used them ? U r my Star of Wonder. Happy stitching. 🪡❤️

I like your book of days. On list for Christmas. Always love your videos. Love to look at star at night

In case you haven't already realized this, by stitching on Star of Wonder you are doing a Christmas stitch. 🎄 I ordered my supplies for the Star of Wonder SAL the other day, they'll be here in the next few days. Can't wait to get started on it. As for your Christmas WIPs, I think you should continue on the Quaker Christmas. Also, I love your long babbles. It's like listening to a friend.. I hope your week at Sister's is a good one. Can't wait to hear all about it.

You are a star. Love your floss tube!

Love, love, love your videos!!! Beautiful garden. And Tannenbaum for me!

My Christmas stitch vote goes to the "Oh Tannenbaum" box...I think it would be the star of FFO's for the Christmas season.

No need to be sorry for babbles Anna. We are here for it! 😊 I’d make some progress on the Quaker project while there’s some evening daylight.

I love your long bubbles I love it to hear because it's like we're old friends and we're just catching up with our families and stuff

Anna, you are a rock star! You do not “babble”!! I love listening to your videos. I even get lots of giggles out of them!! I’ll be doing PNWSS via Zoom, and I’ll miss you!!😊

Anna you are always a star!! I’d like you to stitch the Brenda one in July

I think the star of your Christmas WIPS is the Christmas Quaker. I’m stitching the Schoolhouse Quaker from Stone Street Stitchworks. Those motifs are no joke! I enjoy two handed stitching when using my Elan stand. I mostly stitch in hand unless it’s a fabric I need on scroll rods. Happy 4th of July and enjoy your time in Sisters.

Hi Anna, I like the old Tannebaum stitch for your designated Christmas in July. And you are a star of wonder…just saying😊. Your yard is beautiful, a little oasis.

The Star of wonder looks like a fun stitch a long I am doing the quilt.

I am a 2 handed stitcher. It is much faster and I am an impatient stitcher. I really love the peacock pin cushion and am glad you will be starting it soon. Looking forward to seeing your progress. You're a star ❤

Happy 4th of July 🇺🇸. Love your babbling … I was kept company while painting my first Paisleys and Polka Dots patriotic finishing piece and you kept me highly motivated. I can’t wait to finally finish my project before the fireworks have ended. You are a rock STAR in this community! My choice for you would be the Brenda Gervais …. Thank you for sharing your beautiful garden 🪴.

The Star of Wonder stitch along sounds wonderful! I will check it out, and love your videos!

I've never stitched a star piece, but now that you've enabled me (yet again), I'd like to try it. Glad you've found a way to use your Lowry stand. For Christmas in July, I'm embroidering the ornaments of Kathy Schmitz's Jolly and Bright. She's another designer I found through you. As for your Christmas stitching - stitch the one that makes you smile when you think about working on it!

What a star you are Anna! I love to spend time with you and am with you on the A cup pincushions haha! I am excited for the Star of Wonder quilt releases too! I am closing in on a finish this Christmas for Christmas Quaker II I hope - it has taken me such a long time - many years! - but it's incredibly beautiful so I vote for that one!!
