I have been stitching for 18 years, but am just now getting into working with silks. I am so grateful to have found this video! Do you possibly know the name of that Caron Waterlilies?

Thank you, I was curious! I’m not anymore! Looks really hard!

I'm currently working on a Northern Expressions piece and it has "pinecones" made completely of queen stitches. Also I must be crazy because I'm stitching it on 40ct linen. This visual really helped me to make sure I am doing them correctly! Thank you Jan!!!

I finally got a chance to catch up and watch this Flosstube. You look wonderful. So relaxed and happy. Fantastic news about your trip to France! And you are getting out just in time before the Olympics. Love that sampler with the willow tree!

I love your videos. I always have thanks for sharing cause. I love all the stuff you do sorry I haven't been on here. I've been busy and pick. And I haven't really been crossed yet because can't afford it? So have fun have to be safe and And france have fun enjoyed life and life is too short not too

Just caught these Basics videos. Wanting to try Linen. Any recommendation on which has fewest slubs and a little bit firmer feel? I stitch in hand. Thanks!

Love your new designs. Safe travel and have fun. Happy stitching and designing!

What incredible plans for your life! I am happy you share your work. We are able to others work many other places. Doors and windows are a favorite of mine so look forward to seeing your designs use inspiration from France. Happy times ahead!

Thank you for this tutorial Jan. I do have a question, how do you prepare variegated floss, i.e Colour and Cotton, Weeks or even DMC so that the variegation comes out nicely on a project?

JASPER, and France, the way you guys are doing it, is a DREAM of mine. Have so much fun, savor it, for all of us, hovering over your shoulder. Is Mike a photo-taker? Even if you do it with your iPhone, PLEASE snap lots of pics. (iPhone cameras are superb). Thx, Jan. I'm 71, you appear younger than I 🎉

Your hair is so pretty! Were you a dark-haired girl? I've a theory about who gets lovely, white hair. I'm still salt + pepper. Jan, your stuff is SCRUMPTIOUS. Thank you.

Beautiful designs! What an awesome opportunity to get to visit France, missed seeing you and hearing of your travels.

The summer Olympic in July in France hopefully your not near it ..

Hi Jan, Mike and Nina! So lovely to see you today and catch up. Beautiful new designs and stitching as always. Ugh...doctor's appointments. I am past due for my 6-month colonoscopy follow up of a removed precancerous large mass that they removed last year so need to get a referral for that pretty soon. In the meantime, I have been sick since February, have been on 3 rounds of 10 days each of 3 different antibiotics. Finally got a referral to an ENT doctor who took one look with only the otoscope and said oh, I think you need sinus surgery. Apparently I have a deviated septum which is obstructing flow of the sinus. Not sure when the deviated septum occurred; could be when I fell and broke my eye socket back in 2003 or could have done it when I broke my back a couple of years ago since I did hit my head a couple of times my mom said when I kept passing out from the pain. Right now the ENT is trying a course of steroids and a compounded antibiotic nasal rinse solution (of course not covered by insurance) so will hope these measures clear things up. If not, will have surgery probably fairly soon. During all of this, we are trying to find a house to rent closer to the kids (nearly an impossibility with Samsung building in Taylor where the kids live) so we are now looking at the Temple area, trying to avoid the whole Killeen area, as the kids want to move north of the Georgetown area eventually. My stitching has been very minimal this whole time. Just am so tired from being sick for so long. Walter is growing like a weed and going through the horrible 3s. My goodness, girls are so much easier to raise than boys. What exciting news that you are going to France! I have wanted to go there since I was in high school many moons ago and had to miss out on going with my class due to the fact that I knew my parents could not afford over $3000 at the time. I loved what I was able to see of Banff, Glacier and Jasper Parks although much of either Banff or Glacier was closed due to a wildlife. I know you and Mike will love these areas. Enjoy your time in Arizona as much as possible as you will soon be on the road again. Take care my friend. Dawn in Texasss

Wonderful catching up with you Jan and seeing your new beautiful designs! Love the colors and unique borders. Enjoy France! I visited Normandy with my father who was revisiting the sights he flew over in the war. They treat veterans wonderfully! How is Mike progressing on his books?

You’re back !!!!!!!

It's awesome that you're planting coffee trees. I've never seen it done. You said you wanted to plant 50 trees. You can do it a little at a time. To build the numbers up. Try it that way instead of doing it all at once.

Hello Jan...your pictures during the introduction were so good I had to watch them twice...beautiful, beautiful releases...safe travels and best wishes...put me in your pocket as you travel and stitch❤❤

Hi Jan, So happy to see you back on You Tube. I have missed seeing you. Glad to hear things are going good. What a wonderful trip you are going to have in France. I look forward to seeing all of your posts. I love seeing all the stitching that you have been doing. Everything is so beautiful.

That second sampler ---wow!!!!

❤❤❤ your new designs are so beautiful have fun at France ❤❤ hey Jan in your next flosstube can you tell a little bit of your background, I’m curious like where the inspiration on picking these patterns or design them I just want to know you as a person 😊

Thank you for the video Glad to see you again for a catch up. Such wonderful releases and wow that pink sampler is great. Congratulations on your upcoming coming travels will be so fun. Europe as well is on my bucket list for someday. I have put a little note in my calendar for Sept 12 to see if I can make plans from work to get up to traditional stitches as well🤞maybe as the time gets closer you’ll be able to pin point a time frame you would be there as it’s a 3hr drive up just so I wouldn’t miss the opportunity.

It would be better if you were to show the right side

Great to hear of your trip to France. Will the Olympics throw any travel hiccups your way? I don’t know when the Olympics start and stop so hopefully it won’t impede any site seeing. BTW, just finished your pattern called Winter from the Punch Needle and Primitive Cross Stitch or whatever the appropriate name of the magazine is called. You rank as one of my favorite designers❤🪡🪡

The introduction was so long I forgot what this was about. I thought I accidentally started a travel video.

Hope you have a wonderful vacation and can't wait to see pictures and treasures from your trip when you get back! Safe travels!

So happy to see you. Your new charts are beautiful. Your trip to France sounds wonderful!! Two things I really enjoy seeing, was the Tapisserie De Bayeux,Bayeux Tapestry. Also a dinner cruise on the Seine River in Paris. The Light are amazing. Have a wonderful trip!!! 😊🪡

So good to see you! Excited for your trip to France. I love the pink sampler. It is unusual using a bright pink. Can't wait to see your version. take care and love Nina's sweet nose

Lovely to see you Jan, and hear and see what you have been up to. Wow France! Look forward to following you on your trip too. We are hunkering down for winter in the southern hemisphere and it’s been very cold.

Hellooooooooo! It's great to see you 🤩

Enjoy your trip to France. I love Carnival and will be ordering soon. I plan on participating in stitch along,also. Safe travels!

That’s gorgeous Jan! I had a stroke September 2023 now back in Roseburg but no knitting and crochet,however I’m doing diamond painting and coloring. I do want to xs but everything is still packed!

All cotton fabric is wanted. Dress A Girl would love to have it to make dresses and skirts to help stop child sex-trafficking. There are many locations in the US. I’m in Arizona. Keep up the good work, you’re doing great, and it will all be worth it!!😊

Glad to see you ! Stay safe ,

France!!! Have an awesome time!!! 💙💙💙💙 your new releases

I’ve missed you! Have a wonderful time in France!

Nice to see you again. Thank you for sharing pictures of your adventures. I just picked up Carnival from my new LNS. Travel safe!

So much fun seeing you on your travels to Texas back in April Jan! Such a treat for me. I know you’ll soak up your trip to France. A bucket list item for us as well! How exciting. Stay safe and well and look forward to hearing about it all on the flip side! Happy stitching.

Great to see you! France….wow! Can’t wait to see pictures! Love the new designs and I need more stitching time with all the beautiful new ones. Safe travels, have the best time and enjoy every minute! Happy stitching!

Lovely to see you! You will have a fabulous time in France I am sure, just be aware most of the French will also be on their holidays! I adore Brittany, it is beautiful. A few places to look at: Île de Brehat, Plougrescant (Le Gouffre in particular is stunning), Pointe du Raz, Quimper. You MUST go to Carnac for the alignements, and while you’re there pop to Quiberon for an hour or so too. I may think of more! Food is wonderful - all the things that come to mind at first are sweet (kouign-amann, crepes, far breton, palet breton) but I recall we also had savoury galettes, and lots of good seafood, plus cider. In Paris, if you only do one museum my recommendation would be the Musée d’Orsay.

Thank you Jan and for the wonderful pictures, your lovely designs and your time. Have a lovely time in France. Kindest wishes 🎉🎉😊

So happy to see you Jan! Love carnival, spectacular colors! And love the tulips for florigraphica 2. How exciting you get to visit France!! Sounds wonderful! Have a wonderful time! ❤️❤️

Six weeks in France! So happy for you to get such a long time to truly explore. Looking forward to seeing all the photos on IG. Love your new designs.

Lovely to see you ❤ Do you,or any viewers know of good cross stitch shops in New York City? I’m heading there next week from Scotland so would love to get any recommendations ❤

I don't think the children these days would have4 the patience to sit and stitch something. I know my children didn't. The second sampler y ou got is more my style. I like the colors on it.

Hi Jan, if I were going to France, I would like to see two things, the Louvre and inside the vase that Eleanore of Aquitaine gave to King Louis VII. Also visit the grave of Jim Morrison. Third, the Sajou house. France is not high on my bucket list but those places I mentioned would be nice to visit.

So excited for you about your trip to France. Hopefully the crowds from the Olympics won't interfere.

Glad to see you. Hope you stay for a while. I loved seeing all the photos from my home state Tennessee. I'm from Chattanooga grew up there and know all the areas well. Moved to Florida when retired. Hope to see you soon.

I was so happy to see your video today. You have been missed. I was in England the middle of May and did a day trip on the Eurostar to Paris. Do a walk along the Seine it is lovely and walk to Norte Dame. There are some lovely bistros to enjoy a nice lunch nearby. Safe travels. Can’t wait to see your pictures of France.

So very glad to see you and know all is well.
