I hear you...when our loved ones die it's super tough to get through that! ...Go easy on yourself❣🧚♀️🧚 Your work is very inspiring!! I LOVE the Hearts block also💖
You are so sweet. I am a non finisher also. It’s ok it just means that we have lots of interests and we get bored easily. I hang on to my unfinished projects and eventually get back to them. Actually you are really great at finishing the small detailed projects so keep trying new things.
I went to a presentation at a history museum in Knoxville Tennessee where they presented about quilts through history and they said some people in the 1700s and 1800s would put a mistake in the quilt for good luck. Your baby quilt is lovely and it has the “good luck” mistake in it!! I love your work and it inspires me!! I have never quilted. But I want to start. Your honest disclosure of your work is wonderful!!
I really love your baby quilt. Did you know that it is traditional to leave a mistake in any handmade project as a recognition that only God is perfect. I’m really enjoying your videos. Thanks for sharing.
Sorry to hear about your losses. It’s never easy and 2 so close together is heartbreaking. I learnt to make socks last year and absolutely love it. I tried dpn’s and that was ok Magic loop is the method I use most often on 2.5cm 80cm length. I’ve just purchased some 30cm short ones but not tried them yet. I’ll cast on in the next few days. Thanks you for an entertaining video…I only found you this week. Take care x
I like 2.5mm chiagoo needles for socks using magic loop, it’s less fiddly than dpns and 9inch circulars don’t feel as comfortable to knit with (for me) the chia goo have a lovely smooth join so they are nice to use. Magic loop is really easy for knitting the heel too. Love your appliqué blocks the blanket stitch looks really nice on the hearts and makes them pop 💕
I took a sock knitting classes a few years ago. The book that really helped me is Getting Started Knitting Socks by Ann Budd. I knit on 5 Double points. Double points work for me, could not get on with circular needles.I love making socks and have made over 30 pairs, I have even gifted some. For a first pair of socks I suggest using a thicker yarn double knit, with what ever needle size is given. The sock yarn I get here is kinda thin fingering weight, so a size US 2 needle, 3.25mm. I always do a swatch to see if my tension is what it should be. Happy knitting.
Hi, I have just found you on you tube and loved listening to you. I love your quilt and hexiesalso I do quilting, crochet and knitting so it is always great to here someone else with the same interests. I also I love your yarn choices. I have also subscribed.x

Thank you Kelly! I will have a look, with the magic hoop do I just need the circular needles or do I need another 3rd needle for the heel?
You make lovely things xx and your skills seem effortless, so many talents xx
Very sorry for your loss , Rachel. It’s hard enough to have suffer one loss, but two close together is really hard. Cherish the memories!🌿🌹🌹🌹🌿💜
