Love your work, especially the colour change of the letter'M' with fairy. I want to do the 'Z' but don't like the letter colour, what would you suggest?

[@LovinLife-pv7op]

Yeah, the cat attractor. I might not see my cat all day UNTIL I pull out my scroll frame and then, bam, here she comes! For whatever reason, my little girl is obsessed with laying on the mesh/frame the second I lay it down. Why is that? My cats are very, very spoiled. They have toys, they have special stairs, special chairs, etc., so they are not deprived, but will not stay off this scroll frame/mesh!

Great video, I will start my first one soon. 😍😄❄️

Yay. They are fun but the bigger ones are time-consuming 😊

Where did you buy that grime cover? I love the pattern! Thanks.

[@littlelionstitchery9359]

Thank you 🙂. I made them. I think I have a tutorial on my blog.

Hi! Loved your video! Great tips! I just wanted to ask you whats the name of your scroll bar, where could I find it? I'm planning on buying one because I don't feel comfortable with my mermaid in a hoop. I would like to put her in a bigger frame, one that I could carry with me, but I think I need a scroll bar just as yours. Thank you! Take care, Angela from Perú.

Thank you so much! This is the one that I've been using to stitch her amzn.to/3P2zeXv . I purchased the large.

@@littlelionstitchery9359 Thank you! I'll look for one

I think beading needles are betrayed as well. I use a 28 petite John James needle to bead, and it’s so much easier to work with!

[@littlelionstitchery9359]

Lol. I just remember going crazy trying to get all the right supplies and little did I know it wasn't necessary 🤣

[@salinagonzalez5221]

Going to start with the letters. I have some miras that I want. Wish me luck 🍀

[@littlelionstitchery9359]

Good luck 🙂. I am not the fastest stitcher and I mix it up so I don't get bored. Needless to say, Gypsy Queen is taking me FOREVER! The letters are really quick and fun though.

What kind of stretcher bars do you use and what size?

[@littlelionstitchery9359]

Hi, I am using one by Arabeska. The size is 22" scroll rods and 15.7" stretcher bars.

[@sandrafarley2966]

6 months it the shortest time a year is the longest but I changed the design some what.

[@MauraVH]

When you buy the pattern, do you get both a coloured pattern and a black and white?

[@littlelionstitchery9359]

Mirabilias and Nora Corbetts only get printed and only in black and white symbols.

[@sandrafarley2966]

I have stitcher her since 1990
