    Your book is lovely and beautiful. I love your approach to problem-solving when something doesn't work. Your videos are full of pearls of wisdom for stitching and for life. Thanks Marion!!

    So beautiful Marion!! I love your stick-to-it-iveness! (That’s my way of making a word to fit my needs as you do in your making!) I remember many times of needing to get creative when various projects didn’t go as I originally planned but I think that stretches us and helps us to learn and be confident that we can succeed! Thank you for sharing (and helping us learn) all of your lovely, colorful, amazing creativity!! 💕Donna

      That's it exactly Donna. Things that turn out not quite as expected make us have to flex our mental muscle and see what we can do. As always I keep in mind...no mistakes, only opportunities for doing something different and learning at the same time!

    I love how you don’t see as tragedy when something doesn’t turn out as planned. It’s an opportunity to create in a different way. 😊 So lovely. 💖💖💖

    • @marionsworld24
      @marionsworld24  11 місяців тому +2

      I just feel that there's always something that can be done. It's just changing your mindset a little so you don't see a mistake as the end of some vision you had in your head of something perfect that is now ruined. Look at those times as an opportunity instead.

    You can be very proud with the book. It is amazing. You collect and save everything, and I think it is so funny, because I do the same. Lots of little jars, boxes filled with beads, buttons, threads, you name it, I have it. I always say it is my shop, I don't need to go to a real shop. And I can start with something new, without buying all the stuff first. Curious what you make next week.

    I’ve just found you!!!!! A bit of ‘binge watching ‘ coming up. FYI …. I’ve got quite a few of those big needles and I can tell you what they were used for in our house. My father, ex RN man, used to make floor rugs. Several lengths of wool went through the eyes of the needle and long rows were looped into repaired hessian sacks. Then the wool was cut to about 4 inches and pushed up and over itself. Another row followed, tightly beneath and you were started. Dad made many, many of our household rugs and I remember the times when they had enough money to actually buy the wool for a design he had created himself. Happy memories. Love your book….. I remember bluebell and campion woods in Devon as I lived there from 9-12yrs. So, it’s hello from a sunny Belfast ….. looking forward to getting your channel

    Oh, I forgot to say that I believe your clasp may be off a vest wore with a dirndal skirt, like at October fest. Or I have seen sweaters with that type of clasp for a closure.
    It’s genius to use them for a book clasp! So much easier than tying a ribbon each time you open it. Cheers!

      Oh.. I didn't know what they'd been from. I have another 2 pairs of them. I thought they'd maybe been from a nurses uniform or something...

    You are a real artist. Your journal is awesome. Greetings from New Zealand

    Maybe a hint for long usage: some kind of cover to keep your embroidered from getting oils from your skin on your stitching. A very lightweight fabric that is shiny - gossamer- ey. Just a thought.

      Do you mean to keep it in...or to cover whilst working?🤔

    Those look like the clasps on Norwegian sweaters.

      Yes they do. But I don't think that's actually what they are. I think from an old nurses cape possibly....

    I've really enjoyed watching you put this lovely flower book creation together. Very inspiring.
    What is wonder bond and where can it be purchased in the UK please?

    • @marionsworld24

      It's called Bondaweb in the UK. It's a fusible web used for applique or for putting up hems without sewing. It's a double sided glue sheet. You iron it on to one piece of fabric.. cut out your shape, take off the backing paper and then iron it on to another piece of fabric. Your local fabric shop should stock it. Also Boyes, if you have one nearby.

    Oh Marion! You are so clever to figure out how to make your spine work…and so brave to cut it in half!
    Well, it worked out just fine and is a beautiful volume of handwork❤
    What is the title of your hardback flower book that you use for inspiration? Thanks for all you share with us!

    • @marionsworld24

      It's the Reader's Digest Field Guide to the Wild Flowers of Britain. There are ones for butterflies and birds too..

    Aren’t you clever! Yes, I cringed when you cut the cover…but wow…what beauty from “ashes!” Better than the original!

      😅 I knew some people would be horrified.... But it all worked out fine in the end..
