I don't know if you watch Finally A Farm Girl, but she just made her own sampler. The story that goes with that is very nice. It's in honor of her grandmother. I watch Misty Purcel too. She always has a little story about her projects. It's nice to hear the inspiration behind the projects. The Chatalaine is pretty.
I enjoy the way you take time to chat about things while showing your projects. Your sampler has been fun to watch with all the different stitches. I am curious to see what you have planned to add to your tribute to Queen Elizabeth II.
Thank you for watching!! I am glad that you enjoy the content. The December 11 video should have the finish for my Elizabeth II memorial piece.
Thank you so much for shadowing your beautiful version of the French Crown in honor of the queen! It is just lovely!!! Can’t wait to see the final finish! 👏💐
Ah spell check is a demon, and changed my word ‘showing’ to shadowing!
Thank you for watching!! I am honoured that you like my French Country Crown project. It will be finished in December!
Autocorrect gets me as well!
Looking forward to every flosstube 🌹 stitching sampler er so great, Will be stunning in the end looking forward to see it all together. Here in Norway its really warm november, and still no snow im trilled! Makes IT much easier.im in the last section om my Rejoice and Evermore by Brenda Gervais and looking forward to my Next project. As is very small from serie A Year in the woods 😍🌹have a great creative week. Greetings from Gurli
I use CeramedX Ultra Moisturizing Cream and a German product called Handwunder Handcreme Plus by a brand called Lütticke (I don't know if you can get the Handwunder outside of Germany - I live in Germany). I enjoyed seeing your completed Chatelaine, I'm looking forward to starting mine. I hope you have a lovely week.
Finish=Reward 1 square to go. Bravo
The French Crown is beautiful! You have done an amazing job of keeping up with Sampler of Stitches. If you send me the dimensions for the gate stitch I’ll look for gold frames in my thrifting searches. 🇨🇦❤️
Thank you!! The French Crown is 2.25" h x 3.625" w. See you on Saturday!
ZZ Top…. That made me seriously laugh out loud…lol. I’m glad you mentioned going through both beads. I’m at that part today and was wondering if that would help. I used all dmc and non mill hill beads for mine. It’s definitely different 😂
Thanks for watching!! I am behind on yours so I will have to catch up and see how the beading worked for you! Thank you for enjoying my ZZ Top comment. You were the only one!
Love that Chatelaine. Just a comment. I’ve worn Clinique’s Dramatically Different for probably 35 years. I LOVE IT! I know you don’t. But my skin is sensitive and Moisture Surge is too greasy for me. But thx for your reviews..
I think its great that it works well for you! There is always something for everyone! Thanks for watching!!
Thank you for the review of Chatelaine. Would you recommend doing a chatelaine on 32 or 28 count? I am about to start one in January but unsure of the fabric count?
Thank you for watching!! For a Chatelaine, if you are planning on using a hand-dyed fabric, I would definitely recommend using a 28 count fabric. With the shrinkage that usually occurs, it will make sure that the beads will generally fit. If you are planning on using a linen, I would also recommend using a 28 count due to the fibers not being uniform. If you are planning on using a solid coloured lugana by Zweigart and are planning on using the Delica beads, a 32 count will work (that's what I did Egypt Mandala on and everything fit beautifully). Hope that helps!
