Anna, you do a lovely job selecting the music to go along with the videos. You both are the sweetest and gentlest people❤️❤️
What a beautiful road trip & garden tour. Thank you for the calmness & friendship of the LGC for all of us to become friends. I live in Northern CA, USA &so glad I found your channel. I am watching many of your “you tube shows” & enjoy my evenings with you as a new friend. I am 80 & all the world problems seem to go away at least for a few minutes or longer while I enjoy your channel. Thank you very much.❤😊
As always, Kate, a lovely job on the curtains. They finish off the porch just beautifully. Colour in itself is so transformative. Whoever gets the 'blue' sweater will be lucky indeed.
As I read the comments made by others I realize how much your influence has spread and how we all appreciate the calm and beauty that you bring into our lives each week. My birthday is the same month as yours and we were born in the same year. I truly feel like you are my sister from another mother. Take care of yourself so that I can keep visiting you. See you next week it sounds exciting!
This is how I feel. Greetings from Minnesota USA!
Me Too. Love from Argentina 🇦🇷 ❤
I feel exactly the same. From ARIZONA, USA.
Same here from Washington State USA
Your home, you curtains, your ideas, your skills your kindness..just beautiful. 💐
Kate, you are truly an incredible woman! The drapes radiate warmth, the plants share life and Agnes boots show the love. Your room is definitely "Kateified"! Thank you for sharing the journey. Blessings
Kate is so lucky to be able to paint things any color she wants! Pink walls! Wow.
Each of your videos feel like a kind of "coming home", even though they make me miss my own mum so much , You always so warmly demonstrate that the small , simple comforts of "homely" life are what our spirits thrive on.
The spinning videos are my favorite… it brings me back to the early days and what attracted me to the channel and what the channel use to be….just you…your needlework and the camera ☺️ how I adored the simplicity of it all… the porch looks so serene and comfortable…just lovely
Just wanted to acknowledge the passing of her Majesty. I feel Kate is everything British and losing her Majesty is like losing a Grandmother. Thoughts and prayers with her friends and family, nation and Commonwealth. As an expat in Canada, I am grieving her loss also. Lisa, Ontario 🇬🇧🇨🇦💐
I am a late starter Kate, but love your podcasts since being introduced to you by Arne & Carlos. Thank you for the joy of pretty dahlias, your lovely daughter in law, postage stamp curtains and beautiful cats Rita and Norma RIP.
Thank you for the road trip. I love to see the countryside. The blue that you have would make something beautiful for Agnes. You did a great job on your spinning nook and I loved to see Cat Rita's tail move across the screen near the beginning of the video. I have a soft spot in my heart for cats. 💖
Hello Kate, We enjoyed this so much! Please thank Anna for such great filming and for being such a beautiful soul and friend! Your curtains turned out beautifully.
Congratulations on 5 years!! And getting those curtains finished and hung by yourself without falling!! 🤗 I enjoy your homely house so much!! Thank you for all you share. The world needs you!!❤
Kate!
Youve done it again!
Didnt get enough the first time through so will rewatch this one, over and over....
Anna is a lovely young woman and we are all blessed that you share her with us.
The wee pink boots!
Communicating cats!
Eye bling for inspiration!
Dahlias to die for!
And then!......carding the 'blue'!
You have delivered PEACE to each and every one of us....
Cant put a price on that.
Thankyou!!!!!
Well spoken! Kate and all her warmth is my therapy every time. I’ve never seen carding before-fascinating and as usual makes it look so easy!
I agree. 😊❤
I could have spent days walking in that peaceful, beautiful garden. Then when I saw your wonderful finished porch reveal, I knew I could spend lovely calm days there! The curtains give it the perfect final touch! 🥰
Your porch is so lovely, Kate. The postage stamps curtains are perfect and make such a beautiful setting with the spinning wheel and the green plants. The last homely house is a wondrous place to live! Thanks for sharing it with us. I can hardly wait for next week’s video!
Dahlias are among my favorite flowers, and I loved seeing all of those beautiful blooms. Thank you for taking us along.
Your corner with the new curtains is so beautiful. I like how the little squares look like stained glass pieces. All your plants look so happy there. Great project.next week with champagne and snacks on the lime green sofa! Can't wait💖🍁🍂🍃
You are like an artist with your jacket and now the spinning going through your blue period. Fabulous blues can't wait to see the spin. 5 years has flown by.
Thank you for taking us along to the garden center! Gorgeous dahlias. So enjoyed seeing Anna’s lovely smile. She’s definitely a keeper. Well done on your porch update. Love everything about it. Enjoyed watching you card those beautiful blue (my favorite color) fibers. I love your channel and am so grateful I found it. Sending you Happy 5th birthday wishes!
WOW! Congratulations on 5 years of making the UA-cam world a more beautiful place and inspiring your channel members to spread the creativity and beauty all over the world!!! I celebrate your remarkable accomplishment of maintaining a channel that is always bursting with ideas and I can't wait for the Birthday Party!!!
Aren’t we blessed in having Kate in all our lives?
Love your entryway transformation! It's perfect!! I remember when I found your channel 5 years ago. I would go round work telling everyone I was watching this lovely woman from Northumberland who reminded me of my mom. "Their personalities are different, but like my mom, Kate does everything!" I think they think I am a bit bonkers. Can't wait to celebrate learning from and laughing with you on the LGS! I will have to make a treat in memory of Norma.
Gwyn, what a super idea to make a treat for Norma. Wasn't she such a lovely act! 💖
Kate, Dear Kate, is there anything you can’t do? You amaze me so. The porch is lovely. I’ve been watching you for years and can’t wait to help you celebrate 5 years. Hugs and kisses.
I love how your cats want to say hello to us😸The blue future yarn is so beautiful! I love it!
Cheryl
Hats and gloves are at the ready for the Last Homely House birthday party. We all will be there. 😊🎉
Oh, that blue is gorgeous! The porch looks lovely and a chair with a footstool would make for a cozy reading nook. Well done.
I remember very well your first spinning video. And I hold you responsible for ‘enabling’ me for purchasing a new-to-me spinning wheel as well 😂. Thank you Kate for sharing your life with us for the past 5 years. Happy birthday 🎂🎈
Yay! party!
The porch looks great Kate, very homely. See you next week, I'm going to wear my green floral frock. Happy carding!
Kate, you are the cure for this anxious world. ❤️
wow Kate this was a good one. you inspired me. We moved to 11 acres in the woods of Nova Scotia Canada I will have a big garden and it is on a small lake just to add great joy to the whole thing. Thankyou for the years of tranquility you have added to my previously traumatic life. I have made the quilts you walked us through and baked along with you. Now I will live in the out of doors in the way you do; with long walks in the wooded trails and peaceful sits on my quiet deck. Thankyou so much for giving me a dream to strive for.
Well this was the most beautiful day shred with you! Beautiful surroundings, beautiful flowers, beautiful yarn, and beautiful you! Thanks so very much for the most beautiful adventure today. Muahhhh and smooch smooch. Love and peace to everyone everywhere 💕
Yes I see how that wool is making you smile!! And it’s making me smile too. So gorgeous!! Blue is my favorite color and I can see a vest under that fabulous Hanten jacket! I will pop a champagne for your anniversary next week! PS. Beautiful dahlias!
Hi Kate, I love your back porch, those windows bringing the outdoors into your living space. Your added touch with postage stamp, plants and spinning wheel completed the look. I can’t believe 5 years, I’ve been following for all those years. Back in the day I loved hearing you read so enjoyable. I’ve watched you spin and look forward to anything that you have up your sleeve. Thanks for all your videos that you share ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️5 Star Rating
I love love love, your back porch! What a beautiful space for you and the kitties. Good for you, Miss Kate!
Those dahlia gardens! Paradise! Your new nook is so fresh and colorful and cozy - a wonderful facelift!👏🏻❤️
What a gorgeous blue! Your last homely house is so peaceful and the curtains look wonderful.
Oh Kate the porch looks so lovely. The curtains are just perfect. Can’t believe it’s been 5 years I’ve watched you pretty much from the beginning. Amazing and I’ve enjoyed every one of you videos. Feels like old friends ❤ thank you
The "finished" porch is beautiful!
("Finished" because - is ever anything around the house finished?)
And those blue woools! Awwww!
💚Peace, quiet, calmness, gentleness, cheerfulness, imaginative, encouraging, uplifting, creative, generous, I simply love you Kate! 💚 Joyce on the LGS in Oklahoma!
The little nook with the postage stamp curtains and spinning wheel is absolutely lovely, how cozy. I do remember your first show, although I watched it some time after you had started, and am so looking forward to next week. 🏡 Thank you for giving us all a lovely place to gather.
So charming, the pinks and the postage stamp curtains with the lovely natural light coming in through the windows. This is like a magical place in book, full of wonder, with the most amazing things happening each week!
This is my favorite channel. You do so many different crafts, I knit, crochet, quilt (very simple nothing like yours) embroidery, and counted cross stitch. I love watching you do your quilts and the spinning. The back porch is beautiful, would love to see complete tour of your house. It is so unique and homey. Thanks so much for all your videos.
The porch turned out so inviting. Loving the thought of a napping space. And of course, the curtains finish the room beautifully. A birthday party!! 5 years of such pleasurable watching. It has been about 3 years for me, but I think I have caught up with them all. Every season brings such joy. I will join you for a party next week, dressed in my Sunday Go to Church clothes. You are the best hostess. Have a wonderful week, Kate. See you at the party!
Our multi-talented Kate! Your pretty pink porch is lovely. The blue yarn is delicious. Happy Birthday to The Last Homely 🏡 🎂🎈
Such a lovely video and gentle music! Your curtains are wonderful with all your plants. Happy 5th Birthday!
Kate, your house is looking so lovely! The curtains are beautiful! Looking forward to the birthday party next week. I can’t believe it will be five years!!!
I’ve never seen carding before, or spinning for that matter. So interesting. I’m going to be watching your spinning videos this week. Congratulations on 5 years! Love your channel.
Beautiful flowers! Thanks for taking us along. Great music also. Love your porch.
The porch is lovely and that shot of the window and spinning wheel looks like another great puzzle.
Just lovely Kate it's amazing all the knowledge and talents you have .You bring such peace and calm to my soul .Today is one of those days needing it the most .Thanks .
What an amazing Garden Centre! Thank you Kate and Anna for taking us along. The porch is beautiful, so pretty! I really enjoy watching you spin....it always looks so serene and soothing. I can't wait until next week....now to think of what to wear to your Birthday Party!!🤗🤗💖💖
Your curtains are beautiful, the perfect fit for your porch room , and your plants are just gorgeous as well , thanks for sharing.
Just what I needed to watch today. How have I missed your channel for five years? It’s lovely!
Congratulations on the redo of your sun porch and five year anniversary. It’s wonderful to fix up a useless space into a place you want to be. I know when I do that I wonder why it took so long.
I’ve been subscribed about five years. I wish I could claim to be so from the beginning, but no. I remember about 1,500 subs at the time. I know I started watching you because my mother had died in 2017 and left some unfinished quilts that I was researching on UA-cam how to finish and you popped up. So you were a great comfort to me.
As for curtains, I made some pojagi curtains with 6” batik blocks that I learned from you. I love how they are finished on both sides.
I’ll be there next week.
Your back porch is so lovely. The curtains are a beautiful finishing touch. Watching your videos every Sunday are so soothing. Thank you 💞
When I saw the bed off the porch it made me think of my great-grandmothers house, she had a small sun porch off the kitchen she used as her sewing room and it had a built in seat that me and my cousins would use to read and take naps on. Made me smile when you said you took a nap there. 😊
How very lovely to go with you and Anna on a field trip for Dalias! The stamp curtains with all the finishing touches to your sunny nook is spectacular! I can't forget Cat Rita's tail photobombing in front of us. This was a super special video; I am looking forward to my place on the lime green sofa next week!😘
What a lovely porch space you have created with your postage stamp curtains. ❤
I am so glad you are going to be spinning again. I loved watching it the last time. My cat was sitting on the back of my chair when Cat Rita popped up on the screen. LOL. She was so excited she was talking to her. She used to watch Norma a lot. The sunroom looks great!
Ooh Kate, your home is the house of my dreams so restful, colourful and so welcoming too…. I look forward to next week thank you so much for inviting us all to your home x
Your home has the loveliest wooden windows, how beautiful they are….
I found the carding, I think you called it absolutely fascinating. I know almost nothing about spinning so I'm looking forward to seeing what you do next. Those blues are absolutely gorgeous. Congratulations on nearly 5 years of UA-cam.
Happy 5th Anniversary LHH (EOS)! I so enjoy watching every video and given the loss of the Queen this past week, I began to think what a lovely legacy for you to leave Agnes to watch someday far, far in the future.
Kate, your back porch has really come together and looks so inviting. I love the placement of the spinning wheel. Job well done!!
What a lovely peaceful space that porch is!
Walking through a dahlia patch feels like walking into a living patchwork quilt, doesn't it?
No wonder you look so happy out there among all of those beautiful colors, shaoes & textures!!🤗🥰
Thanks for sharing your crafting life with us. I absolutely love catching up with your latest episode. You are an inspiration.
The drive to the flower nursery was beautiful, love the flowers you bought. Cat Rita's comment was perfect timing about where she would eat! Your curtains look lovely. I love all your plants. Getting the wool ready for spinning was very interesting. I've never seen that step. Looking forward to next week's video and the party. Here's to the next 5 years!
Just found your channel recently. Wish I could find a friend like you in real life. I really enjoy your sewing/quilting, plants, cats, decorating, I too am a Granny to a 3 year old. Unfortunately we are very far away from Brynn. We have moved frequently for Hubby's work. So with his long hours I am alone. So hard at 63, thank you for your channel...
Rita kitty so glad you are there to direct! HI all on the LGS! Have a lovely day from Idaho USA to all at the LHH. ❤️
Lovely, lovely, lovely! Just like YOU. You DO bring peace and beauty and inspiration to all who meet you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for bringing us all to your lime green sofa, uour home, your family, and into your life. Cheers!!! Happy Birthday and 5th Anniversary. ~ Amy
Kate, I think you’ve become my latter day Mr Rogers for grownups. 😅 What an encouraging, soothing episode. Your fresh, new entry is well worth being chuffed over. Hope the nap was a good one. 💗💗💗
You've made me want to make patchwork curtains for my sewing room ❤
I love what you do ,because you are so authentic in what you are doing.. That's not usual in ou times now. I really enjoy to see your quilting videos.
I love to learn so many things on this channel. The flowers, the preparation of the fibers for spinning. So amazing.
And yet as the fall should bring the slow end of things, a sense of peace and renewed spirit is in the air. May your new lovely space bring you days of inspiration and renewed creativity for the next best steps. Happy birthday, week to The Last Homely House.
Curtain looks fabulous. I’ve never seen dahlias so big, gorgeous.
The curtains and the room looks fantastic. Looking forward to next week's Birthday Party!
Hi Kate. I really like your curtains. The blue wool is beautiful,blue is my favorite color.Your porch looks so cozy. Congratulations on 5 years.
Love those beautiful curtains, they totally change the look of the area. The wool is very, very nice.
I just discovered your channel and enjoy all the quilting and crafts you share. Such a warm feeling of peace and happiness as I watch your videos. Thank you Kate ❤
What a beautiful calm life you have. It's a pleasure to follow along. You make very nice things and have inspired me to make my home life more enjoyable. And to pick those unfinished projects back up! Lol.
Kate, Congratulations on five years on You tube. I love your beautiful curtains, and your little porch looks a delightful place to sit and relax and read. I look forward to seeing what lovely garment you make from your blue wool. Have a great week.
Your back porch looks so beautiful and cosy! I love your colourful pretty curtains, so nice and bright to let the light through, love that! The flowers are so pretty with your nice plants! Kate, I love your cosy sanctuary, and I bet the cat's do too! Cheers!
I love the joy you find in all your endeavors. It’s contagious.🌸
Oh Kate,I just love watching you. As you were climbing to hang the curtains I said “ Be careful Kate”. The dahlia gardens were gorgeous. They are one of my favorites. Have a good week and I’m so looking forward to next weeks birthday celebration. I wish I had found you earlier.
The curtains make such a difference they are so pretty and colourful and just complete the area perfectly.
You are such an inspiration to me! I'm gardening again and have been bitten by the quilting bug! All thanks to you!
Your porch turned out so beautiful!!
Kate, love "spending time" with you. And the porch looks lovely and so inviting!
I am so looking forward to next week's birthday celebration on the green couch. The 26 /9 is my 80th birthday, so what a treat to be spending it with you and the Last Homely House friends. After watching you for the last five years, I feel as though you are certainly one of my friends
.
Hello Kate
Bet you were tired😓 The curtains look superb. Can't get over the look on cat Ritas face...she looked so hard done by waiting for her feed " what about me?" she seemed to say😂💞☕🍰
Thank you Kate and Anna for the wonderful trip to the gardens. My dad grew Dalias and won many prizes for his wonderful displays. It bought back memories. Thank you again.
The porch is delightful! I feel like Agnes was just born. Now a 3 year old 🥰
Thank you for all you do. 🌺🌺
Finishing projects is sooo satisfying! Beginning projects is fun, too. Looking forward to next week!
I absolutely loved the ride-along through your beautiful, peaceful countryside!! And I keep wondering how I can make those colorful curtains work somewhere in my house!! I just love their cheerful presence!!! Thanks so much for taking us you-tubers along on your fascinating adventures!!! 😀🌺🌸
The porch is lovely and the blue wool is gorgeous. Congratulations on 5 years of TLHH! Thanks for everything you have shared with us ❣️
looking forward to joining everyone on the LGS next week, can’t believe 5 years has just flown by. love those curtains they look so cosy in your room, just fabulous x
Love the curtains. They made that corner so cozy. The carding looks like fun too.
I love your beautiful curtains, and the way you have hung them. It looks like such a homely house thing to do! I so enjoyed watching you put the beautiful blues together on your spinning thing, ready to spin it on your lovely spinning wheel. Your sweet granddaughter Agnus would love a new jumper from grandma I am sure, in those beautiful blues. Thank you for your vid., you are, as always, so inspiring to us all. xxx
