    In the past I couldn't afford a box, but quickly snapped up 2 tote bags this year. One for me, of course, and the other for my sewing teacher who said to me 3 years ago, "There's a UA-cam channel that I think you'll enjoy called The Last Homely House." I love my time on the Lime Green Sofa and will absolutely report any sightings in the wild!

    I love all of it but what I love most is that your whole family gets involved. Watching you pack the EPP kits in this video made me cry. Everyone wants a family like yours, you're so lucky. Your videos have bought me a lot of joy. Thank you 😊

    I prefer what you have done this year, getting to choose which items we really want. And I appreciate your generosity with the free shipping for orders over a certain amount. This is my first year to actually make a purchase. I did join Patreon last year to make the Christmas sampler quilt, only I did mine in blue and yellow. Thank you all for the positive, peaceful, and productive dimensions you add to my life. From a kindred spirit.

    Hello from Washington State! I have a very good friend that is amazing at sewing and quilting! She made my daughter an amazing quilt for graduation! It has inspired me to give it a try! So in search of tutorials I've come to your channel. You have been an amazing help, I have learned sooo much from you! Thank you so much! I enjoy your videos very much!!!!

    I love that you had a Christmas SHOP this year rather than a box. Everything was lovely in your previous boxes, but I was able to shop within my budget and still order beautiful, thoughtful gifts. I appreciated the opportunity. Thank you. I know it must be so much work planning and coordinating, but I would love to see this again next year!!

    As a first time Christmas shopper I had no idea about how quick things sell out. 20 mins of indecision and the jigsaw and candles were sold out. So I quickly purchased what was left in my cart - thank you Kate, Anna and everyone behind the scenes

I was finished within 5 minutes of the shop going live and altho I am now thinking I should have added candles or the tea towel to my cart, I am very happy with my original decisions.

    I think being able to choose items is a better option. Everyone has different circumstances and interests and it allows a bit more flexibility.

    Truly, the weirdest thing in the world, today, Sunday, relaxing, settling into this video, I fell asleep while your uploads continued to play--in my dream, I wasn't just on your 'Lime Green Sofa, while your videos played, 'my lucid dreams blended with your uploads and I was right there in England, sitting at your sewing machine as you pieced, engaging with you as you arranged quilt pieces on your design board, as your family came and went!
    The only thing is, because I was lucid dreaming and you're uploads are already recorded, I couldn't get a word in edgewise--but it was a wonderful trip! LOL!

    What I liked about the boxes was the video visits with all the crafts people and watching you pack the boxes with confetti and the occasional mystery note. But I like that this time it’s so accessible for people to participate. Even if they don’t purchase a bag kit, they make a bag with their own fabric, for example. It will be so nice seeing all the finished bags and journals and puzzles on the lime green sofa.

However, I was happy to order a few items as soon as the shop opened and it was nice to just order what I wanted. Sadly, I still missed out on the candles and puzzle. Should you decide to keep this more open Christmas offering, please add more candles!

    Such a brilliant idea having things available individually so we can pick and choose. You ladies are so so creative. Thanks for sharing your talents and ideas with us all.❤❤

    Thanks Kate and Anna! That's half of my Christmas gift buying done and dusted. I really loved that I could pick and choose this year. I am not a quilter with the exception of some small pieces of hand sewing but I am a huge fan of this channel and the garden channel...so many favorite things and some are, the love that is shared, Anna's photography and music, Kate's skill and enthusiasm, the dedication to well-crafted videos and content plus much, much more. So happy to be on the LGS. xxx

    I was just thinking what wonderful memories you are creating for your family, Kate. Everyone chipping in, sharing their unique talents, coming together into a whole that is something greater than your individual talents. And so many people around the whole world enjoying your creativity and joy. God bless you and your family.

    It's always a great idea to change things up a bit. I'm glad your family is all taking part too. The free shipping is a winner with rates so high world wide. Thank you!
