Welcome to Machine Embroitery with Kimberbell ORG, where we share helpful tips, introduce exciting new products, and celebrate all themes machine embroidery. I'm your host, Kim Christofferson PERSON, and I can't wait for you to experience the joy of creativity with us. Hello, everyone, and welcome to What's New Wednesday at Kimberbell ORG. I'm Kenner-Stofferson and I am so happy to be with you today. It is Wednesday, May 8th, 2024. And if you are listening to this on the podcast, of course you're listening to MachineEmbroidery with Kimberbell, but if you are watching this on YouTube the podcast. Of course, you're listening to Machine Embroidery with Gimberbell PERSON. But if you are watching this on YouTube, Facebook, or Instagram, you are watching What's New Wednesday WORK_OF_ART? Who do I have with me today? It looks like Lisa from Northern California LOC. And Dory, good morning from Mill Creek, Washington GPE. Hi, Carrie from Colorado and Katie from Oklahoma GPE.Hello, Alice from Missouri GPE. And let's see, where did you go? Oh, Marianne from Canby, Oregon GPE. Hi, Killeanne from Northern California LOC. And my friend, Judy PERSON, from where did you go, Judy. I'm trying to remember where you're from.Okay. Hi, Kendra from Oram GPE. Lisa from Attica, New York GPE. And the list is coming in fast and goes on and on. So thank you. Thank you for being here, everyone.It's great to be with you today. We've got some fun things to talk about, including a really fun giveaway from our friends at Meantime ORG. So you're going to want to stay tuned to all of it because you won't want to miss that for sure. All right. So let's go ahead and just jump right in with a little bit, a little bit of Sointel with Kimber Bell ORG. Here we go. All righty.You guys have been busy. It's been fun. I've got kind of a plethora of different projects all over the place here from you. You guys have been busy doing quilting through the seasons. Yes. Oh, that makes me so happy to see.It's one of those projects. Again, you make it once. You change out the seasons. It's really phenomenal. You guys are getting it done. Keep posting your pictures like this one.This one comes from Joanna PERSON. She says, finish quilting through the season's base quilt. Just love the colors. Next up are the many, many embellishments. And yes, you are not a kid in Joanna PERSON. There are many, but they're all for the different seasons.And they look so darn cute on that base quilt. Thank you so much for sharing your project. So far, so good. Looking so good, I should say, right? This one comes from Laurie PERSON. She says, I'm so amazed at the ingenuity.Working on quilting through the seasons and saved these for the last two steps since I was a little intimidated, but no need to be. The flowers have a few steps and the buttonholes could not be easier. Laurie PERSON, I couldn't agree with you more. That really is a fun set of steps there, especially for those button holes. You can't believe that those are done on the broider machine the way they are, and they'rereally quick and easy don't be intimidated as lorry said it really is simple and i love of course that she's showing the the um little inserts for the bike basket that also changes out for the different seasons uh one season you'll have strawberries another season you'll have flowers another season you'll have snowflakes and they all fit in those little baskets on the bikes so cute okay this one i loved that she's just showing this block i know she's doing the whole thing but this block in particular i thought you know what if i were to just pull that block out of the quilt think of the possibilities So I loved what she did with this one.This is from Lenny PERSON. She says, I had to add vinyl to the vase. So fun. Yeah, Lenny PERSON, it looks like a lovely ceramic vase, doesn't it? With that little bit of sparkle and shine on there. And then, of course, as Lenny knows, you're going to be able to swap out the flowers that go in the base according to the season it all works together if you are looking for this project this is the this is what it looks like well at least one of the seasons it's the quilting through the season's ladder quilt and as we've said all the little elements are interchangeable per season So think about it as you get the base done and maybe you get summer embellishments done right now,but then fall starts to come along and then you're getting ready for that. So you do the fall embellishments then. And then winter embellishments when it's winter. So it's keeping you busy all year long. Here's what the product looks like. If you're looking for that,wherever Kimberbell ORG products are sold, there you go. It's a book and CD combo set. And we'd love for you to give it a whirl and post your pictures over on the Kimberbellas and Fellows Facebook group.Now, this next one I loved because she did a combination of several different Kimber Bell ORG products, new and old. Let's take a look. This was very creative. This comes from Dawn PERSON.She says, I love the saying from quilting through the season. So again, the product I just showed you, her center block comes from that. She says, and she just knew she had to make something with it for her granddaughter's birthday thanks to one who wonders okay that's the new product that just came out right for the layout and the rainbows and the fun with fringe for the bouquets now the fun with fringe guys comes from the Kimberbell ORG vault it's a it a much older product, so you can find it as a download in the vault.She says, with Kimberville GPE designs, the possibilities are endless. Thank you so much, Dawn PERSON, for sharing this. Let's take a closer look at some of these things she's talking about. In the center, that's right there, in the center, she's saying that that, yeah, that came from quilting through the seasons. I love that saying too.It says, I'm going to make everything around me beautiful and that will be my life. So she used that as her center block. Then what did she do next? She took the One Hoop Wonders PRODUCT product and she found, you know, the perfect way out for the quilt she wanted to make in One Hoop Wonders PRODUCT, plus the rainbows.Let me show you that. The rainbows also came from One Hoop Wonders PRODUCT. And then the flower jars, as Don PERSON said, came with the download for Fun with French. Are you taking note, guys? If not, we've got the links in the comments here. But look at all those fun jars that came with Fun with Fringe PRODUCT. Take a note, guys. If not, we've got the links in the comments here.But look at all those fun jars that came with Fun with Fringe, and she mixed it all together and then finished it off with Clear Blue PRODUCT tiles. Swirl design. Nailed it, Dawn PERSON. Thank you so much for sharing that. If you are looking for, let's see, Fun with French, that's a download. This is what it looks like at Kimber Bell ORG. Jars of seasonal flowers right there. You can see it comesin a few different sizes, three sizes to be exact. And boy, you can use them to decorate cards or tote bags or anything. And I love that the jars just lend itself to putting all kinds of different seasonal flowers in there. So check that out. One who wonders, I forgot to put up the picture, but that is brand new, as you know, and that's, again, available wherever Kimber Bell ORG products are sold.Now, last week on What's New WORK_OF_ART Wednesday, we talked about the brand new digital dealer exclusive, and that was for the Paisley's ORG in Bloom belt bag, and you guys are already making it. Again, I just love it. It makes me so happy to see. This is available through quilt shops that are participating in our DDE program. This one comes from Lenny PERSON. She says, Love the Kimberbell dealer exclusive this month.I think I'm a little addicted. She used a felt bag and she used the Kingstar PRODUCT metallic thread for quilting on it. Then, of course, she had to add bling, she says, to all three of them with some crystals. One on just the flowers and the others ones with crystals on the flowers and the quilted flowers. Look at that.Very, very nice, Lenny PERSON. And I love that you're making them beyond just the one project. You're making multiples, probably gifting them as my guess. And I love that you added the blink. Thanks for sharing that, Lenny PERSON. This one here from Janet PERSON, she says,finish the Paisley Bloom ORG belt bag, the pretty hardware and strapping that came with the kit are well worth the price. Oh, I'm so glad that you love that. We did too. It was really a beautiful hardware that we've curated for this particular bag.And then, yes, like she said, the strap comes with that as well. And look how lovely hers turned out. Here's another one. Let's see. From Cindy, she says this is her 7 by 10 size Paisley Bloom ORG bag. And it looks like she finished it off into a zipper pouch instead of that belt bag.And it looks wonderful, doesn't it? Thanks so much, Cindy PERSON, for sharing that. I love the pink that you used on it. And then finally, this one, let's see, this one, oh, I love the color combo she used on this. Oh, yes. It's Paisley and Blume bag, and she used the denim with yellow.Isn't that a beautiful color combination? And she turned it more into like a wrist bag. And I love it. I absolutely love it. So you get, obviously, you get that quilting as part of that. And again, if you're looking for a shop that is doing digital dealer exclusives,we'll put a link here in the notes as to how you can find that shop so that you two can do it. This is what the original one looks like on the Kimberbell ORG website, if you're looking for that. But it's through the digital dealer exclusive program that you're able to get that. So pretty darn cool, right? And then finally for today's show and tell, this one just made my heart happy because, well, let's read the comment here.She says, I have my grandson for the summer and last summer he was watching What's New Wednesday with me. When Kim was showing these pinwheels, he said, Mimi PERSON, you need to make these for me for my birthday. So here they are.

Speaker 1692.52s - 701.54s

Oh my gosh. I love that so much. First of all, I just love the fact, Mary, that your grandson was watching what's new Wednesday.

Speaker 0701.76s - 972.38s

I mean, come on. That's pretty cool, right? Your little grand baby boy. And then he says, Mimi PERSON, I want those pinwheels too. And look what she did.Looks fantastic. Thank you so much, Mary PERSON, for sharing that little story. And then, of course, your little pinwheels are the perfect little cover for like a lollipop, a little treat or something.You could put them on as a pencil top. We've put them on little sticks that you can then put inside a planter. So that would be really cute for summer to gift someone, you know, a plant or flowers with those little pinwheel sticking out. So lots of possibilities. That comes as a digital download.It's only five dollars for actually four different designs that are perfect for summer this is what it looks like you've got some flip flops you've got of course the little pinwheel that mary showed uh the life preserver and the cupcake so that's all called felt cozies for summer and um it's an oldie but what we would say is a goodie. So I hope you enjoy that.All right. Let's see. Oh, today we have a new background quilting design that just launched. And I think you're going to be very, very happy, my friends, because it is one that is a large-scale design. And you know, the new large-scale designs are found on the navy blue fabric. So if you see navy-blue fabric that it's stitched on, that means it's a large-scale design.And look how stinking cute that safari is. The zebras, the elephants, the monkeys, all the things. Safari, right? Okay. Get your thinking caps on. Are you thinking about what I'm thinking?Baby quilt? Mm-hmm. Toddler quilt. Mm-hmm. I think that is so darling. When our quilting team put that out there and I was like, okay, got to make it, got to have it.You know, I'm not a grandma quite yet, but you know what? I can always get started on some baby quilts, right? And, and no. Or great baby shower gifts. It would be so cute like on a little burp cloth too wouldn't it a quilted burp cloth yeah people are saying perfect for baby quilt gail PERSON says ohmg that is adorable mm-hmm couldn't agree moremy friend gail yeah very fun barbara yes i totally agree sheay, love it. Keep the large scale coming, please. Oh, yes, you're going to be seeing a lot more large scale. If you're not familiar with what I mean by large scale, think a larger scale, right? But, you know, if say our background quilting designs are like a two inch width now, we now have additional background quilting designs are like a two inch width now, we now have additional background quilting that is larger scale that is considered more like a four inch width.And so if you have clear blue tiles that are anywhere from a four by four tile all the way up to the brand new tiles of 10 by 16, you can use large scale quilting designs. So that means, my friends, if you have the essential set or the expansion set one or the brand new expansion set two, yep, you can use the large scale quilting designs on all of it,which is good news, right? And that just means faster quilting. And it's not as dense, which makes it really snugable too. So anyway, Safari, you got to have it. And it's brand new at Kimberbell today. Let's look at it again, shall we? I love it. You know, even if you didn't have like a pieced quilt or an applicate quilt that needed to be quilted,what about taking that design and just taking a solid color piece of fabric or flannel or minky and just using the all over quilting design on that one piece? Now you've got a whole new look for that material that you used, right? And you finished it off with your quilting with the clear blue tiles. Pretty awesome.

Speaker 1972.88s - 974s

Very excited about that.

Speaker 0974.06s - 1275.86s

That's brand new. Also, just as a reminder because the brand new mini quilts is coming out very, very soon. And so if you want to be ready for that, this is what it looks like. All 12 designs will now be available to you. The background quilting for that, optional quilting, is now available at a 25% discount at Camberbell ORG.So this is what you're going to get in that entire bundle. Here's a look at July. Look at those popsicles. It's showing in the corner what quilt we matched it up with. There's August, September, October, November. I love the pies, don't you?December. Then we've got some block by block quilting with just a little bit more, you know, the triangles, the geometric, the waves, the flowers. Really, really fun. So that also as a bundle is available right now for 25% off. So run over and grab it. We'd love for you to get started on that. And of course, as I always say, think beyond the projects. It was created initially for those designs can be used on just about anything. All right. So what do you think? Are you super excited? Oh, I am too. Ooh, Lisa PERSON, I will passthat on. And if any of our background quilting Lisa PERSON, I will pass that on. And if any of our background quilting team is watching, pass that on to them. Beach theme, please. Either scale would be great. Yeah, the beach theme. We do have a beach theme in the smaller scale, right? Because that is part of the brand new quilting through the season.Or not quilting through the seasons. Many quilts. But I think a beach theme for the large-scale designs would be so cute as well. So you never know. You never know. These guys are doing them weekly.They're quite far out. But you know what? We'll put it on the list for sure. All right. So that's what's new with background quilting. But today I want to talk about a little something, just a little orange, something. Maybe you've heard about it. It's called thebell box. Oh, you know what I'm talking about, the bell box. Now, if you're like, well, I have it. I got, I've got it. Well, that's okay because you're going to want to still stay tuned for, well, I'm going to interview Tori here in just a moment. But you're going to want to stay tuned for a special giveaway at the end as well. But just by raising hands, thumbs up, hearts, comments, how many of you have the bell box have ever gotten the bella box?What do you think about it? Chiming in in the comments, I want to hear from you. What is so special about that orange box, right? Let me show you as you're putting in your comments. I'm going to actually show you a little video about the brand new Bella box that just came out from our friends at MeTime ORG. And then I'll introduce you to tory you already know and lover but uh we get to chat a little bit about the bell of boxtoday yeah you guys are uh you're loving the bellabox i love it um really really funny fun funny well that may be that too fun projects um but again let me go ahead and show you the video to get you all excited about the brand new one. It's called Let's Celebrate WORK_OF_ART. And boy, there's a lot to celebrate with this box. Let's take a look. I'm going to be the I'm going to be. Thank you. I'm so excited about this. It just launched. This is a box done twice a year. It just launched last week or the week before, but I'm going to let my friend Tori tell us all about it. Everyone, please help me welcome.My friend and yours, Tori.

Speaker 11276.4s - 1282.58s

Hi, Tori. How are you? How are you doing? Good. I'm excited to be here and talk about

Speaker 01282.58s - 1286.16s

the bell box. There's a lot to celebrate with that one.

Speaker 11286.28s - 1291.88s

Of course, that's the theme. Yes, right. Tell us a little bit about how that theme came to be.

Speaker 01291.88s - 1299.02s

So the bell box comes out twice year. It comes out in April and October. And the October one is always

Speaker 11299.02s - 1304.58s

geared a little bit towards fall and Christmas. And then the one in April comes out kind of a little

Speaker 01304.58s - 1305.82s

too late to hit some of

Speaker 11305.82s - 1310.1s

the holidays we don't normally get to hit. So as we started planning this one, we were like,

Speaker 01310.32s - 1315.8s

can we do projects that hit those holidays that we know people love and want to make projects

Speaker 11315.8s - 1320.98s

for, but we don't get to. And so it started out like maybe we do four different seasons.

Speaker 01321.28s - 1346.32s

And then it evolved into we need to give them all the holidays. So that's what we got here. And you sure did. There's a lot in here. For those of you, for the people out there that this is their first time hearing about a Bella box or MeTime ORG. Can you give us just a quick run through on what that is and how that relates to Kimberbell and Meatime ORG and such.

Speaker 11346.7s - 1365.68s

So the Bell Box started over at Kimberville GPE as being complete projects that were delivered to the end consumer. But we had mad rushes on ensuring that people could get a box that they wanted and knowing how many boxes to produce. And so when we started Meetime, we moved the Bell Box over to Me Time ORG and made it as a

Speaker 01365.68s - 1378.08s

subscription so everybody who is signed up for the Bellabox ORG subscription is guaranteed a box if they want it it helps us because we know how many boxes to produce we're not over under producing and then

Speaker 11378.08s - 1385.14s

we always over order a little more or we have people that skip and then we can open those boxes up for new subscribers.

Speaker 01385.48s - 1390.56s

But what you get in each box is you get five to six what we're calling featured projects.

Speaker 11390.56s - 1404.72s

And that means the feature projects, you get all of the supplies in your box minus stabilizer and thread to complete six, five to six projects. You get the full page colored instructions to go along with it.

Speaker 01405s - 1412s

You get the full page colored instructions to go along with it. Any additional embellishments, fun notions or things to try in the box.

Speaker 11412s - 1431.4s

Like you'll notice here we don't normally include thread, but this is actually a water soluble bobbin. Because a fun technique you're going to learn in this box is how to do fringe. And so you can't do that if you don't have the water soluble bobbin. So we gave you that. And then there's always a fun collectible pin and then a tool or fun

Speaker 01431.4s - 1459.66s

notion as well. It's just a gift to yourself, right? And as me time entails like me time. How many of us need just that little bit of downtime, me time for ourselves to just have everything we need in that box ready to go so that when we open it, we can have just a really enjoyable experience. And you guys have put these things together that just makes that happen

Speaker 11459.66s - 1472.78s

without any stress. Yeah. It really is nice because a lot of the gathering or finding the things, I don't know if you're like me, I end up spending $200 more than I need to for one project.

Speaker 01473.02s - 1487.8s

It just comes all together for you and ready. The one thing I didn't mention is we love bonus projects with the Bella PRODUCT box. So even though you don't get those supplies in the box, you get an additional amount of

Speaker 11487.8s - 1493.12s

bonus projects. I think when we're counting with this box, it was like there are 13 variations

Speaker 01493.12s - 1497.74s

of bonuses that we're giving you because we couldn't just stop at a couple.

Speaker 11500.5s - 1509.32s

You and I got to do the unveiling of the box. If anyone watched that a few weeks back on the MeTime ORG Facebook page, we unveiled it.

Speaker 01509.7s - 1516.16s

And I could not believe that you included 13 bonus designs.

Speaker 11516.62s - 1517.46s

And they're incredible.

Speaker 01517.62s - 1518.78s

They're not just like little things.

Speaker 11518.9s - 1520.7s

They're really, really good stuff.

Speaker 01521.54s - 1550.02s

So without further ado, do you guys all want to see it? And as we're looking at these things, I would love for you again in the comments. If you've ever received a bell box or if you've got this current one, we would love to hear from you and hear about your experience because they truly are phenomenal. You know, just a quick note, Tori, I saw on somebody's Facebook feed this morning, something like, you know, Mother's Day is around the corner.

Speaker 11550.74s - 1567.56s

Consider anything that you buy right now, a gift for yourself. And I was like, amen. Oh, I've been doing that since the end of February. She was thinking I would save them for Mother's Day and I've been wearing them. I still, I don't know. I think anything between then and now is fair game.

Speaker 01567.86s - 1579.34s

Right. Right for yourself is counted as a mother's stake in. Absolutely. And the good news is that if you're ordering it, like say even today, it ships out today.

Speaker 11579.34s - 1580.58s

It ships out pretty quick.

Speaker 01580.76s - 1580.88s

Yeah.

Speaker 11581s - 1582.42s

These are already pre-built.

Speaker 01582.84s - 1587.72s

And so it's just a matter of making the order and our shipping team shipping it out.

Speaker 11587.96s - 1588.32s

Wow.

Speaker 01588.82s - 1596.32s

Couldn't it be more convenient. Okay. So I'm going to open this up. And I'm also going to show you some pictures. And then you're going to.

Speaker 11596.32s - 1619.28s

And I have the project. The finished project. Okay. So as she's saying, this is all about celebrating, right? All the things. So I love just even the the topcard that you know allows me to go oh what's under that that card it tells me everything shows me everything that should be in there but immediately this is what my eye is drawn to the instructions

Speaker 01619.28s - 1631.42s

yeah yeah so full color printed instructions already hole punched for you too so that you can put it in a binder. But you don't leave anything out, do you?

Speaker 11631.86s - 1638.36s

No. No. We have a really awesome team that puts together these instructions. They are tested multiple times.

Speaker 01638.36s - 1644.48s

We even have people that are called outside testers come in and test the product against our instructions.

Speaker 11644.7s - 1646.36s

So everything you need to have the most success with any of our test the product against our instructions. So everything you need

Speaker 01646.36s - 1652.46s

to have the most success with any of our projects is because of our instructions. Yeah, I totally agree.

Speaker 11652.62s - 1658.92s

I love that even like if someone is looking for an event, we're going to direct you here on the

Speaker 01658.92s - 1664.64s

shop locator for events so that you can experience even more Kimber Bell ORG fun, right, at your

Speaker 11664.64s - 1665.48s

local quilt shop.

Speaker 01665.88s - 1674.28s

Yes. So there's a card about that. Okay. So I'm just going to because I know, I mean, there's so much to share here.

Speaker 11674.92s - 1679.4s

But what I want to point out with these, and we'll share the projects here in just a moment.

Speaker 01679.4s - 1700.74s

But what I love is that, okay, first of all, can we say how cute that is? How our kidding team puts these pieces together, but everything that they need, the embellishments, the fabrics, you name it, it's all in there. Look at this, even this bundle of gorgeous Kimberbell ORG felt. Mm-hmm. Yeah.

Speaker 11701.18s - 1703.6s

I know, doesn't that felt pack make you want to celebrate?

Speaker 01703.6s - 1736.1s

Like, we put every single color that you would need in there. Yes, yes, yes. Okay. Again, don't have to go out and have to find those things. And then an additional thing of felt. But again, like everything is there for you.Let's go ahead. Before I go into some of the other goodies that are in this box, let's take a look at some images here and then I'm going to have you bring it in those as well. Tell us a little bit about this picture right here, Tori.

Speaker 11736.7s - 1743.04s

Oh my gosh. How this design came out is kind of funny. I had this vision of,

Speaker 01743.04s - 1749.18s

it's like a really old greeting card that I think my

Speaker 11749.18s - 1762.86s

grandma had given me or something, but it was an animal jump roping and it was a happy birthday. And so we had kind of worked with an external graphic designer to make this happen. And it just wasn't feeling like my vision. You know, you have those visions of how you want it to be. And it

Speaker 01762.86s - 1770.68s

wasn't working. And one of our internal coworkers was like, when I see this or think of this, I think of there's

Speaker 11770.68s - 1794.26s

a famous photographer that takes pictures of dogs jumping. That's like he dangles a tree. And so she has some fun inspiration photos that we're actually going to put on the blog in a few weeks and talk about a little bit more. And so then she drew this just as she was doodling and then we just refined it and we love it so much. But isn't it just so fun to see these happy animals jumproping?

Speaker 01794.46s - 1799.34s

Oh, yeah, for sure. And I love, I mean, you've got the dog option and the cat option.

Speaker 11799.48s - 1799.92s

Right.

Speaker 01800.3s - 1805.62s

And even if you aren't a pet owner and you don't have to be a dog person or a cat person,

Speaker 11805.74s - 1813.16s

I think anybody that you could stitch this for and give it to as a gift will love it because they're both really cute.

Speaker 01813.46s - 1823.22s

No kidding, right? And then, of course, it comes with the cinch sack, right? Mm-hmm. As well. So that blank that you saw it on, tell us about that.

Speaker 11823.54s - 1831.3s

And so this is the Kimberbell ORG cinch sack blank. I think you guys had a smaller version in the Deck the Palms ORG event.

Speaker 01831.42s - 1843.32s

That was for Christmas. This is just an oversized version of that cinch sack. And the reason why we love Kimberbell Blanks PRODUCT is they are surged and opened so that they will hoop really easily.

Speaker 11843.78s - 1845.46s

And then when you're done with your design,

Speaker 01845.56s - 1847.74s

all you have to do is sew it up in two places.

Speaker 11848.16s - 1850.14s

And you're ready to go. Yeah.

Speaker 01850.68s - 1854.68s

Really, really simple. I love that even that drawstring is already in there.

Speaker 11855.12s - 1860.1s

You don't have to worry about making a little tunnel for it.

Speaker 01860.16s - 1861.74s

It's just there, right? Right.

Speaker 11861.98s - 1862.26s

I know.

Speaker 01862.34s - 1883.32s

Because we've all done that where we push or pushing our thing through and then it comes out. So that's like the most frustrating part. Right. Makes it really simple. Okay, so let's look at this is fun. And this one has a ton of bonus projects that work with this too.This is the felt pennant banner. Oh, yes.

Speaker 11883.44s - 1897.88s

This is fun. And so this is that stack of felt you showed earlier. That's all cut to the size of this so that you can make a bunch of pennants and a bunch of different colors for a bunch of different reasons. So the one you get in the box is a congrats one.

Speaker 01898.26s - 1913.16s

So it could be congrats for a baby. Congrats for graduation. If someone gets a promotion or something exciting happens, or just because then you can give them this banner tied with a fun treat or something. I love that.I love that just because for sure.

Speaker 11913.16s - 1922.36s

Why don't you go ahead. You know what? We didn't have you show the little cinch bags. Yeah, show that so that maybe they can see the size a little bit easier there.

Speaker 01922.36s - 1925.64s

Yeah. And then go ahead and cinch that baby up. Yeah. And then go ahead and sense that baby up. Yeah.

Speaker 11929.48s - 1937.64s

And the fun thing about this is this actually has some minky on it. And so you'll get the piece of minky in your kit as well as some washaway topping that will put you stitch on top of the minky.

Speaker 01938.06s - 1947.86s

So that's fun if you haven't ever done that before. And then also there's a tiny dot of fringe on this hat. So you'll get to use your water soluble bobbin to do that.

Speaker 11948.2s - 1948.58s

Awesome.

Speaker 01949s - 1952.94s

So these are cute and perfect for if you have a gift that's like an odd size,

Speaker 11953.06s - 1956.22s

like a ball or just something that's really hard to wrap.

Speaker 01956.6s - 1956.82s

Sure.

Speaker 11956.82s - 1958.54s

Or a bag of candy would be really cute.

Speaker 01959.08s - 1961.42s

Darling, darling. Okay, so let's see the pennants.

Speaker 11962.06s - 1971.34s

Of course, you get the congrats one in there, but you get some bonus penance as well. So this shows you about the size of it.

Speaker 01972.68s - 1974.18s

So there's the congrats one.

Speaker 11974.3s - 1980.66s

And then you also get, this one's my favorite, spectacular.

Speaker 01981.38s - 1982.06s

I love Halloween.

Speaker 11982.82s - 1985.92s

And then also Santa PERSON stop here. I love that. And then also a Santa stop here.

Speaker 01986.3s - 1987.52s

I love that.

Speaker 11987.8s - 1988.64s

So that's kind of fun.

Speaker 01989.06s - 1996.66s

And then we, in the box, we've given you a blank pennant so that you can, I'm kind of

Speaker 11996.66s - 1997.46s

jumping ahead here.

Speaker 01997.46s - 2003.72s

We are also in this box giving you a fringe alphabet to go along with your water soluble.

Speaker 12003.98s - 2009.06s

So we gave you a blank pennant so that you can stitch some penance with this fringe on

Speaker 02009.06s - 2010.24s

them and an initial.

Speaker 12010.56s - 2013.66s

So M for Mother's Day, it would be really cute.

Speaker 02014.94s - 2020.52s

We also did a D for Father's Day so you can make some gift to fathers.

Speaker 12020.68s - 2022.04s

I see what you did there.

Speaker 02023.04s - 2024.64s

So. Let's see.

Speaker 12024.68s - 2025.8s

Kind of fun to see those. You can see the fringe on that. So image. Let's see. Kind of fun to see those.

Speaker 02026.22s - 2034.2s

You can see the fringe on that. Let this. That's a good segue, Tori, to talk about that fringe alphabet that comes. The whole thing.

Speaker 12034.7s - 2053.06s

Mm-hmm. So and I, again, that's not even really counting those as bonus, but you get every single letter as a bone or like at the alphabet. So it's 26 files of fringe letters. And then because we had so much fun putting them together, we actually gave

Speaker 02053.06s - 2060.96s

you some bonus words. So we did fun things like love and we stacked them. And you'll see this is

Speaker 12060.96s - 2067.06s

on a cinch sack. Yeah. Because you get two in the box so you could make one dog sign or one.

Speaker 02067.52s - 2069.14s

You get two six blocks in there?

Speaker 12069.44s - 2070.96s

Yeah, there's two in that package.

Speaker 02071.26s - 2072.48s

Oh, I did not realize that.

Speaker 12072.56s - 2073.18s

Okay, cool.

Speaker 02073.48s - 2075.86s

And then this one was fun because, again, we love Halloween.

Speaker 12076.24s - 2077.72s

We put boo on here.

Speaker 02077.84s - 2079.04s

So that would be kind of a cute one.

Speaker 12079.04s - 2083.44s

So what you're saying is not only do they get the individual letters for that fringe,

Speaker 02083.6s - 2088.08s

but they get a couple of words, too, that's already been smushed together.

Speaker 12088.5s - 2088.66s

Yep.

Speaker 02088.74s - 2093.7s

So I think there is love, boo, joy, mom, and dad.

Speaker 12094s - 2095.9s

So they get five bonus words.

Speaker 02096.68s - 2097.06s

Okay.

Speaker 12097.12s - 2101.1s

And then I think they give you a couple of general tips and instructions of how to,

Speaker 02101.32s - 2102.88s

I mean, every machine's different.

Speaker 12103.02s - 2114.66s

So it's hard to give instructions on how to put the fringe letters, but they give you a general guideline of how to center the fringe letters on

Speaker 02114.66s - 2115.28s

any project.

Speaker 12115.9s - 2116s

Awesome.

Speaker 02116.12s - 2120.32s

Well, speaking of that, you didn't know I was going to pull up these pictures, but this is pretty

Speaker 12120.32s - 2120.84s

darn cool.

Speaker 02120.84s - 2124.98s

On the Kimber Bellas and Fellas Facebook page, when I was looking at, you know, what

Speaker 12124.98s - 2131.7s

things to share today from so well came across this one that I thought oh I can't wait to show

Speaker 02131.7s - 2139.7s

Tori and everyone else yeah this is from Jimmy and she says the robolls PERSON make perfect teacher

Speaker 12139.7s - 2146.7s

appreciation gifts with the fringe letter of their last name from the bell box. This is a perfect gift and quick.

Speaker 02146.86s - 2148.36s

Great design from Kimberville GPE designs.

Speaker 12148.82s - 2150s

So cool, right?

Speaker 02150.44s - 2151.2s

That is so cute.

Speaker 12151.36s - 2153.66s

It's teacher appreciation here, too.

Speaker 02153.76s - 2155.1s

Will you make some for my kids?

Speaker 12155.8s - 2156.84s

These are so cute.

Speaker 02157.34s - 2164.1s

Get on that, Tori. You got four daughters to make teacher gifts for it, right? I know, man.

Speaker 12164.66s - 2166.12s

It should have started a month ago.

Speaker 02166.26s - 2167.28s

No, those are so cute.

Speaker 12167.36s - 2167.86s

I love them.

Speaker 02168.2s - 2191.14s

Yeah, Jamie PERSON did a really good job. Shout out to Jamie PERSON out there who made that and posted it. I thought that was a really fun idea. Again, you're bringing in the Kimberbell ORG Rope-Bel method with the Kimberbell rope and then mixing it in with the MeTime ORG fringe letters from the bell box. I thought that was a great combo and a fun way to use that alphabet for sure.

Speaker 12191.44s - 2195.9s

Yeah, and that's the fun thing that we had envisioned when we came up with this alphabet,

Speaker 02196.14s - 2206.9s

and there were many iterations of which way does the fringe go and how long is the fringe? It was quite the process and of itself. But we wanted it to be something that people would use on multiple projects or places.

Speaker 12207.24s - 2207.54s

Yeah.

Speaker 02207.8s - 2223.68s

They wanted. Well, and like you said earlier, you included, you know, your recommendation, what you guys used in product development testing for the water soluble thread. And you included that thread in the box. So they shouldn't have any problems with it, right?

Speaker 12224.1s - 2227.78s

Yeah, because that's what our, what we refer to as our experts in-house.

Speaker 02228.28s - 2229.96s

That's what they use and that's what they like.

Speaker 12230.04s - 2231.16s

So that's what we had to give you.

Speaker 02231.7s - 2250s

Awesome. Love it. Love it. Okay. Let's talk about, okay, one of the things. There's two really cool things in this package.Following this out here. Talk to us about, let's talk about this one first. Okay.

Speaker 12251.5s - 2255.22s

So that is a wreath. You get a nine-inch boxwood wreath in your box.

Speaker 02259.04s - 2270.96s

And that coordinates with our Balsawood PRODUCT project. I don't know if you have a picture. Yep. So if you've ever wanted to learn how to embroider on Balsawood PRODUCT, this is the perfect opportunity to do that, right? Mm-hmm.

Speaker 12271.42s - 2276.32s

Yeah. And so I think you have done on what's New Wednesday with Balsallone PRODUCT,

Speaker 02277.74s - 2277.84s

and you got a lot of good response.

Speaker 12280.9s - 2280.94s

A lot of people wanted to try it, but we're maybe afraid,

Speaker 02284.98s - 2286.1s

and we're like, we need to put this in the bell box because it's not as intimidating

Speaker 12286.1s - 2302.1s

as you would think. And so maybe people, it would be easier if they could just hop in and just give it a try. So you get four pieces of also wood in your box. Nice. And we've given you one feature design, which means you get the felt for that project. And then.So they're getting the felt for this, right?

Speaker 02302.1s - 2303.5s

Mm-hmm. Okay.

Speaker 12303.5s - 2306.7s

So this is the one that you make in the box. Okay.

Speaker 02306.7s - 2307.36s

It's the flower design.

Speaker 12307.94s - 2312.98s

And we had my wreath from my samples has disappeared.

Speaker 02313.38s - 2316.04s

I think somebody really liked the wreath.

Speaker 12316.16s - 2316.8s

So it walked out.

Speaker 02317.34s - 2318.36s

Picture there, right?

Speaker 12318.74s - 2338.82s

But what we did is we took the bossil wood and we just are kind of placing it in the reef. If you wanted to add some stream to the blewood or mount it to another piece of wood, you could do that too with this. But we just kind of slipped it. It's light enough that we slid it into the box wood wreath and then just kind of move leaf around and it held it into place.

Speaker 02339.1s - 2340.36s

So this is the one you get.

Speaker 12340.72s - 2347.58s

And then you also get a Valentine's Day one, which is this cute XOXO. And really these pieces are

Speaker 02347.58s - 2354.04s

just kind of little beancy pieces of fabric or felt and you could just use your scraps to. Oh, yeah.

Speaker 12354.68s - 2359.94s

And then there is this lucky one with these cute shamrocks. And each of these shamrocks has

Speaker 02359.94s - 2368.48s

some fun, different stitching in detail on them. And then this one's one of my favorites because of course we love fall,

Speaker 12368.62s - 2375.2s

but it's these leaves. And this middle one we made with velveteen, which was really fun. But you could use felt or fabric, whatever you have lying around.

Speaker 02375.74s - 2379.92s

Oh, yeah. I love that. And so all those are bonuses. Mm-hmm.

Speaker 12380.1s - 2382.52s

Those last three are bonuses. Yeah. I mean,

Speaker 02382.58s - 2399.42s

that's something, even if I didn't put it in the wreath, I could see just framing in a picture frame or like you said, just hanging with a string or something. I could see like even using that as something to put into an envelope and mailing to a frame. That's cute.

Speaker 12399.48s - 2428.3s

Like a postcard. Like a quilted postcard, so to speak. So I think that could be a lot of fun too. Yeah. And even these designs, they are really versatile. So if you do make your Bostlewood PRODUCT projects and want to keep it for you, you could alsouse those designs and stitch on. I know we had watercolor cards. These would stitch really well on those and lots of other fun places. I'm sure I know your audience, and I know they'll come up with lots of fun ways to use these.

Speaker 02428.3s - 2438.92s

Oh, they will. Oh, you better believe it, right? Speaking of that, Reith, there's something called Reith Spikes PRODUCT. Do you want to tell us about that? Okay, and this is really fun.

Speaker 12439.12s - 2458.8s

I, in talking to somebody from our product development team, we kind of came up with this. I did to do this. We thought maybe it was a little crazy because we weren't sure how the logistics of it would work. But the wreath spikes work in that it is like one continuous thing that you stitch in your hoop.

Speaker 02458.98s - 2461.04s

Yeah, you've got that on stabilizer still.

Speaker 12461.4s - 2474.42s

So this is still on stabilizer. It's our washaway stabilizer. And then when you wash it away, it forms a chain. And so then you have this fun chain that can be a garland.

Speaker 02474.72s - 2479.74s

We were using it as a wreath spike so that you can decorate your wreath with it or create a little

Speaker 12479.74s - 2486.14s

like ribbon bundle with it to decorate on your front door. Oh, I love that idea.

Speaker 02486.94s - 2491.98s

Hanging it. That's like such a popular thing right now is all the ribbons hanging down from the wreath.

Speaker 12492s - 2514.32s

That would be perfect. So just grab a couple scrap of ribbons you have or even like raw edge rips and fabric would be really cute to do this with. Yeah. And then what is neat about this, no matter what your hoop, it is, you can connect these and make them as long as you want.So you get a file for a five by seven or an eight by 12.

Speaker 02514.32s - 2518.28s

And then based on how these are finished, there's like a little connector piece.

Speaker 12518.28s - 2530.54s

So as you go to stitch another one, it has a placement line. So if you were adding a previous garland that you had made or a wreath spike, you can continue it to make it really long.

Speaker 02530.7s - 2532.74s

Like I think I have this other design.

Speaker 12532.84s - 2542.12s

So this is a pumpkin design. And these kind of coordinate with each of the basalids. Okay. But if you're putting your basalwood in your wreath, you also have a wreath spike that coordinates with it.

Speaker 02542.24s - 2545.4s

So flowers and the flower.

Speaker 12546.76s - 2550.8s

Imagine using that even to like gift wrap something.

Speaker 02551.32s - 2556.24s

You know, really so cute because then it's the gift that continues to keep on giving, right?

Speaker 12556.36s - 2561.6s

They can hang it in their room. They can hang it on a mantle. They can put it on a tear tray. Yeah.

Speaker 02562.96s - 2565.44s

So that was the flowers with the flower.

Speaker 12565.78s - 2576.9s

Mm-hmm. And then, and I say this with all of them, every time I'm like, this one's my favorite. And then you have these cute hearts. Oh, I love the hearts. Oh, wait, to go with the Valentine's Day one.

Speaker 02576.9s - 2587.44s

And you guys, that string that's in between the hearts, that's actually stitches. Yeah. So these are made out of all thread wow that's cool i think two

Speaker 12587.44s - 2593.92s

layers of wash away stabilizer mm-hmm okay the reason why we're recommending the two layers of

Speaker 02593.92s - 2598s

washaway stabilizer is just so it really helps it hold its shape

Speaker 12598s - 2604.88s

while you're stitching i love it okay so there's that one and then we have i don't know this

Speaker 02604.88s - 2605.84s

one's pretty darn cute too so we have our st don't know, this one's pretty darn cute too.

Speaker 12605.9s - 2610.18s

So we have our St. Patrick's Day 1, and we have these cute little shamrocks.

Speaker 02610.64s - 2611.58s

Oh, yes.

Speaker 12612.48s - 2614.1s

That are really fun. That coordinate.

Speaker 02616.62s - 2622.56s

And then I kind of piqued this one a little bit earlier, but we have our fall design and these little pumpkins.

Speaker 12623.36s - 2628.36s

And the pumpkins have, can you see that cute detail of the different?

Speaker 02629.32s - 2629.74s

Uh-huh.

Speaker 12631.62s - 2639.56s

So it's really fun and they're stitched in two steps. You could make them all the same color or the alternating colors of each other. Okay.

Speaker 02640.02s - 2649.28s

I love it. People are really liking these and coming up with some great ideas for using them. A couple people have mentioned, you know, using them in your hair too.

Speaker 12649.68s - 2653.46s

Oh, that would be really cute. That would be cute.

Speaker 02653.74s - 2658.6s

Wow. Okay. And they want more. I know.

Speaker 12659.98s - 2661.64s

See, we had a hard time.

Speaker 02661.94s - 2665.46s

We had a hard time stopping at just the amount of bonus designs we gave you.

Speaker 12665.54s - 2670.28s

We could have given you, again, I mean, how do you decide when you're doing all the seasons?

Speaker 02670.64s - 2671.08s

Right.

Speaker 12671.34s - 2673.36s

Like, how do you decide where to stop? Yeah.

Speaker 02673.94s - 2674.28s

Yeah.

Speaker 12674.38s - 2675.16s

We'll see.

Speaker 02675.32s - 2679.44s

We will keep in mind that people want more and see what we can do in the future.

Speaker 12679.84s - 2681.18s

Okay, how clever is that?

Speaker 02681.48s - 2683.5s

You can use them to hang your eyeglasses on.

Speaker 12683.8s - 2684.7s

That would be really cute.

Speaker 02685.86s - 2691.08s

That's pretty darn clever. I love it. Christmas, please is what you're asking.

Speaker 12691.2s - 2693.52s

Always Christmas. Always Christmas, right?

Speaker 02694.22s - 2706.04s

Wow. Okay, so that's pretty cool. Let's talk about the free gift, too, the extra notion right here.

Speaker 12706.04s - 2708.24s

Oh, the wolf felt mat.

Speaker 02708.24s - 2718.24s

Okay, so we had talked about putting a gift in our box and one lady on our development

Speaker 12718.24s - 2724.44s

team had one of these and said, I can't find another one like it, but it fits my hoop

Speaker 02724.44s - 2725s

perfectly and I think it would be something that our customers would really enjoy. and said, I can't find another one like it, but it fits my hoop perfectly.

Speaker 12725.44s - 2729.36s

And I think it would be something that our customers would really enjoy.

Speaker 02729.7s - 2737.98s

So then we brought in a bunch of samples and gave them out to all the different testing stations. And none of them want to give them back. They have loved them so much.

Speaker 12738.7s - 2753.88s

So it's the perfect size that fits inside of most 5 by 7 hoops QUANTITY. So if you're ever having to do any pressing on the back of your embroidery project, if you are pressing your seams or anything like that, it will help your design not fall out of the hoop.

Speaker 02754.88s - 2761.74s

I love that. Jerry PERSON loves that too. In fact, she love, love, loves it. Love, love, love.

Speaker 12761.94s - 2764.84s

Yeah, well, I love, love, love that she loves it.

Speaker 02764.84s - 2784.4s

Yeah, exactly. I do too. In love, love, love that she loves it. Yeah, exactly. I do too. In fact, when we did the unboxing together, this was like the one thing that really, one of the mini, but I was like, oh my gosh, I love that because I love the fact that it's the perfect size for fitting underneath my hoop. And so many times you have to like press down, but you don't want to pop your project out.

Speaker 12784.48s - 2787.5s

So this fits perfectly under there.

Speaker 02787.5s - 2789s

That's awesome.

Speaker 12789s - 2792.6s

And we do have extras of those available in the Me Time ORG store.

Speaker 02792.6s - 2796.8s

If you would like to gift one to a friend or, you know,

Speaker 12796.8s - 2800s

buy multiples for your own, your own house.

Speaker 02800s - 2803.5s

Okay. I was ordering right now.

Speaker 12803.5s - 2805.46s

Good to know because I want some.

Speaker 02806.06s - 2809.06s

All right. This is cool.

Speaker 12809.26s - 2811.44s

You guys now you're going, what is that?

Speaker 02811.88s - 2817.34s

What kind of crazy contraption is that? Go ahead and show us, Tori.

Speaker 12818.08s - 2820.92s

Okay, so you get in your box the hoop hanger.

Speaker 02822.18s - 2824.6s

That's been a huge hit with people.

Speaker 12825.12s - 2845.24s

It has. And even when we had found this initially and I had it sitting on my desk as we were kind of trying to figure out what projects to go with the bellbox, everybody that stopped by was like, what is that? That's so cool. And really, we've seen an amazing response from the people that have gotten the bellboxes on how much they are loving this hoop and can see it being used in multiple ways.

Speaker 02845.78s - 2858s

I don't know if I have a picture of that. Oh, my gosh. Let's see. Is there no? But that's one of the hoops that is hanging from it. Do you have a hoop that you can hang from it?

Speaker 12858.28s - 2862.84s

So what is fun about this is it has this little hook up here and this little base.

Speaker 02862.84s - 2868.94s

And so we got a seven-inch embroidery hoop. And if you just hang it on there like that,

Speaker 12870.12s - 2876.32s

it hangs kind of like a globe or I mean, I don't know how you would describe it.

Speaker 02876.32s - 2878.88s

That is so cool.

Speaker 12878.88s - 2883.1s

And then the fun thing is- What a good way to decorate. Yeah. And you can just make a bunch of different hoops

Speaker 02883.1s - 2891.76s

and change them out for all the seasons. Wow. Okay did that with some bonus projects right okay so this one that we're

Speaker 12891.76s - 2903.04s

showing you has an acorn first of all but if you like there's like cute Halloween and spooky Halloween and there's two kinds of people right the ones that like the cute and the ones that

Speaker 02903.04s - 2905.14s

kind of like the suit cute I don't like the spooky and the ones that kind of like the spooky. Cute.

Speaker 12906.24s - 2907.32s

I don't like the spooky.

Speaker 02907.66s - 2910.64s

I'm not as big of a fan of the spooky, but my kids are.

Speaker 12911.04s - 2914.54s

So we made a cute little version of the Halloween that has a little sugar school.

Speaker 02915.14s - 2916.06s

That's so cute.

Speaker 12916.56s - 2929.44s

So you can pick either one. It's the same stitch option. You just decide whether to skip or to stitch it. Okay. And then it's all over my desk. There's just so much to skip or to stitch it. Okay. And then I just, it's all over my desk. There's just so much to show you.

Speaker 02929.44s - 2930.44s

Yeah.

Speaker 12930.44s - 2935.24s

And then we have this cute little bird delivering a love letter for value.

Speaker 02935.24s - 2945.4s

I'm going to try to pull this, pull, I'm going to take myself off so that you can see that up close. It is so darn cute. That's no pressure. Yeah, I'll be right back, Tori, but let's take a look so darn cute that's no pressure yeah I'll be right back

Speaker 12945.4s - 3019s

Tori but let's take a look at how cute that and so this is cute oh I'm turning it the wrong way this is cute and the stitching detail on it is amazing like you can see the spun decorative stitch on the belly the stitch leather letter and then all the spun floral details so there's that one the next one we have is the Easter one and this one is really fun too you got a lot of different felt on there this bunny is really cute and it has a little fringe tail so again you canuse your water soluble bobbin to just give it that little fun and three-dimensional fringe on this and then one of of our last ones designs for this style is the land that I love hoop. And so it's a little patriotic nod. And then because we also have quite a few Canada customers that get the Bella Box, we also did one with the Canadian NORP flag. And this maple leaf detail on this flag is really cute. It has little stitching in different directions just to really bring that design. I don't know. It's really cute. These are fun.

Speaker 03019s - 3026.02s

Oh my gosh. Yeah, this is a hit. And you guys can imagine all the other hoops that you're going to want to make

Speaker 13026.02s - 3030.52s

so that you can switch it out for different seasons and holidays with this hoop hanger.

Speaker 03031.02s - 3034.64s

I love, again, it's got this nice, solid wood base to it.

Speaker 13035.14s - 3039.5s

And just with, you know, a little bit of, you know, a screw.

Speaker 03039.66s - 3087.98s

Just put it together, right? And then it also includes the 7-inch bamboo hoop as well. Yes. Pretty darn cool. Mm-hmm. There are lots of possibilities with that.So let me show you again this image because you're going to see more of the bonus projects that are in here. Let's do a couple of them here. So you can see all the, you know, the pumpkin and the flags, the birdie with a mailbox and such. But then you're also seeing some of the other, you know, balsa wood designs and the felt design there for the pennant. Here they all are as well.And look, I mean, I love even, you took re-spikes with the pumpkins and draped it across

Speaker 13087.98s - 3095.8s

the shelf that's really cute and so simple to decorate with yeah it'd be really cute across a fireplace

Speaker 03095.8s - 3100.58s

i have a daughter that she shares a room with her sister but she has her own little corner that

Speaker 13100.58s - 3106.1s

she likes to decorate for each holiday i've even thought i should make some of those for her that she can just kind of put in

Speaker 03106.1s - 3109.28s

her little corner because she loves cute decorations.

Speaker 13109.72s - 3111.42s

And so I'm going to have to do that for her.

Speaker 03111.84s - 3129.58s

Look at the top. Is it the left corner to you guys? The top left corner with the cupcakes stand and then they draped the little hearts re-spikes right there too across that stand. I mean, there are so many fun ways to decorate with this stuff.

Speaker 13130.26s - 3136.28s

Yes, I know. We've been seeing a lot of fun stuff in the Meatime ORG store with these re-spikes, or I mean,

Speaker 03136.3s - 3137.3s

the Meetime ORG Facebook page.

Speaker 13137.76s - 3150.48s

And even fun different colors, I think somebody made the flowers in red and blue alternating and then the string is white so it feels a little more patriotic even though the design isn't patriotic and that would be really fun

Speaker 03150.48s - 3159.04s

with Memorial Day coming up and then even um the fourth of July perfect perfect and in fact speaking

Speaker 13159.04s - 3166.3s

of that MeTime ORG group how can they find you guys on Facebook and see what other projects everyone else is making

Speaker 03166.3s - 3166.9s

with this stuff?

Speaker 13167.6s - 3184.4s

So just like the Kimber Bellas and Fellas Facebook page, Meantime ORG has their own called the Meantime community. And it is geared. We do see a lot of projects that people are making that are Kimber Bell ORG too, but it is mostly people are just sharing what projects they have made from their Meetime ORG purchases.

Speaker 03184.74s - 3192.6s

So it's really fun. Everybody is so friendly and so willing to cheer each other on in their projects and helpful when people have questions.

Speaker 13193.06s - 3199.02s

Like I think they even beat each other to answering each other's questions before we have time to hop on there.

Speaker 03199.2s - 3210.76s

I know. They're really incredible. Just like the Bellas and fellas, that Meetime ORG community, I love going over there and visiting it and seeing what people are working on and how helpful everyone is.

Speaker 13210.84s - 3214.52s

So be sure to join that. We should put a link here to that community.

Speaker 03214.64s - 3246.12s

So it's really easy to join. You won't regret that. And you're going to see not only projects that people have made from the Bella Box, but the other offerings that Meetime ORG has too for machine embroidery. So that's cool. Real quick, you've got, you know, you always put in some paper tape. We use that all the time with our machine embroidery.And like we said before, we've got the water-soluble thread in there that we use. You're going to get a full spool of that. And then one of my favorite little extra things about the Bella PRODUCT box are the

Speaker 13246.12s - 3257.14s

collectible pins. Look at that. This one turned out so cute because we love the penance. They kind of just scream celebration. And so we took our cute little logo that we had designed for

Speaker 03257.14s - 3277.6s

the box and put on this pin. That's adorable. Let's celebrate. Absolutely. Now, I know you'd used a lot of beautiful colors in here of the felts and fabrics and such. And so you want just the right thread to match it all, right? You guys have made it easy with this option, right?

Speaker 13278.24s - 3286.66s

Mm-hmm. We do have, we put together for years, people have been asking what threads we use. And so we have started as we

Speaker 03286.66s - 3292.62s

made these boxes to narrow it down so that we are keeping all of our colors into an affordable

Speaker 13292.62s - 3296.92s

thread kit. And so that's what we've partnered with Glyde ORG to put together these let's celebrate

Speaker 03296.92s - 3302.66s

thread kits. Wow. They're beautiful colors, aren't they? They're really fun. Don't they make you

Speaker 13302.66s - 3306.6s

want to celebrate? They're happy colors, for sure, for sure.

Speaker 03307.08s - 3308.88s

So that's available in the meantime store.

Speaker 13309.28s - 3309.44s

Yep.

Speaker 03309.52s - 3315.8s

And the thing that is awesome about these thread kits is they come in these awesome storage containers

Speaker 13315.8s - 3322.88s

so that you just know you're working on Bellbox ORG projects, pull out your threads and sit down and get stitching.

Speaker 03323.34s - 3324.24s

That's awesome.

Speaker 13324.44s - 3326.08s

Oh, I love that you guys have those available.

Speaker 03326.34s - 3326.86s

Very cool.

Speaker 13328.38s - 3329.06s

All right.

Speaker 03329.16s - 3332.4s

I saw a comment and it probably flew by already.

Speaker 13332.9s - 3335.04s

But she asked, I think it was Kelly PERSON.

Speaker 03335.16s - 3338.8s

She says, is it too late to get a bell box? No.

Speaker 13338.8s - 3373.4s

We have a couple hundred extra bella boxes. So you can still get them. And yeah, they are already put together and ready to ship out. So the sooner you purchase one, the sooner you can get one delivered to your front door. Mother's Day.Treat yourself. And then what that means. So we're actively working on our next bell box and even coming up with Ida's ORG for the next one. So knowing that as being part of a subscriber, you actually have first dibs to the next bell boxes that come out.

Speaker 03373.52s - 3378.74s

Now, being a subscriber means you don't have to get the box. If it's not for you, you can always skip it. Yeah.

Speaker 13379.16s - 3387.9s

You always show the box before it comes out. So now they have the ability to go, yeah, I love it or maybe

Speaker 03387.9s - 3395.34s

not for me this time. So it really pays to be a subscriber so that you're guaranteed a box should

Speaker 13395.34s - 3405.32s

you love it. Yeah. Because I tell you what, our Christmas boxes almost always sell out every year. And that's what we're working on for the fall. Yeah.

Speaker 03405.8s - 3407.84s

Oh. There's more.

Speaker 13411.44s - 3419.08s

I've seen the early, early renditions and it's pretty awesome. So Shari PERSON is asking, how do you order the box? We'll put a link in the notes, right? Mm-hmm. Okay.

Speaker 03425.82s - 3425.98s

And you could go to Meetimdeliver.com ORG and see that box and everything else that you guys offer as well, right?

Speaker 13430.56s - 3435.4s

Yeah. So we just have four subscriptions right now. The bellbox is one of them. So if you just go to me time delivered.com, scroll about halfway down the page, you can click on the bell box and

Speaker 03435.4s - 3440.72s

see what's included in this box, past boxes. And eventually as we get closer to the next one

Speaker 13440.72s - 3446.96s

releasing, you can see what is available in the next box. Pretty darn cool. Oh my gosh, Tori. Thank you so much.

Speaker 03446.96s - 3451.76s

That was really fun to talk about some of the more behind the scenes like that

Speaker 13451.76s - 3462.88s

dog design. I had no idea, you know, how that came to fruition. So that was kind of fun to hear stories like that. I know. I kind of want to go throw a party now this weekend.

Speaker 03462.88s - 3498.14s

So you need a reason to celebrate with all of these decorations. Yeah. Oh my gosh. Definitely. Definitely. People are loving the Bella PRODUCT box.That's pretty darn cool to see your excitement about that and to see, you know, all the possibilities that you can, you know, have with such a fun little treat to yourself. For sure. Yeah. Or you know what? If you have a newbie in your life, you know, someone who's branding a machine embroidery,this is a great way to get started and learn new things, right?

Speaker 13498.52s - 3498.86s

Mm-hmm.

Speaker 03499.08s - 3501.3s

Or grab a friend and work on it together.

Speaker 13501.54s - 3502.78s

It would be really fun.

Speaker 03502.94s - 3521.6s

Even if you're virtually, if you don't live in the same location, each get a bell box and FaceTime each other as you stitch. I love it. Oh my gosh, what a fun idea. Okay, I totally love that. I've got a niece in Ohio GPE that I think, you know what, I think I might take my dollar box and put her on FaceTime and do it with her and there's mom.

Speaker 13521.6s - 3526.58s

And that could be really fun. It would be fun. Get a little virtual party going.

Speaker 03526.58s - 3528.66s

I think so with treats for sure.
