    Hi Zoe! I am a fairly new subscriber but have caught up on all your videos. You have lovely WIPs and do beautiful stitching. I am always amazed at how much stitching you do each month along with your other crafting. Coco reminds me of my mom's cat, Punkin, who is also a Maine Coon, weighs about 18 lbs and just showed up on our door step. Both of my mom's cats showed up at her door. My cat was basically a rescue when the neighbors went away on vacation, left her no food or water in 90 degree heat so my ex-husband and I started feeding her and she never went back home. She is a lynx-point Siamese and is now about 11 years old. She was about 1-1/2 when we rescued her and named her Baby. I live in the U.S., used to live in Michigan until December 2020, moved to Texas to be closer to my daughter and then soon-to-be grandson (named after my dad who died at 58 of multiple myeloma) who is now my love. He is 16 months old now and getting into everything, keeping this nearly 65-year-old first time grandma on her toes. I retired at 62-1/2 as I was able to make more money on early retirement than continuing to do medical transcription and having fibromyalgia, psoriatic arthritis and diabetes was taking their toll. I really admire your attitude regarding your EDS and its processes. I follow a lot of the same floss tubers that you do such as Ellie, Darren, Craftie Emily, Michelle BendyStitchy. I have been stitching for around 42 years and have not gotten brave enough to stitch on anything smaller than 36 ct/2 but my eyesight is not the best anymore after 2 LASIK surgeries and 2 cataract surgeries. I am trying to get some finishes in this year and have been doing pretty good so far but I am horrible about making them into things. I have never seen anyone stitch with 2 hands and needles before, and was fascinated by it on your previous video. I cannot even imagine teaching yourself to do so, but I am amazed at the way you can also change knitting patterns, crochet patterns, and adapt cross stitch patterns and have them all turn out beautifully. Yikes, 64 ct/1. My eyes would be bleeding LOL! Your mum has made great progress on her WIP! It looks very confetti heavy. Her second WIP is so cute. Hi Bumble! My mom's ginger and white cat, Freckles, is also afraid of everything and when we added on to the house in Michigan we thought she was going to have a nervous breakdown. The sleeping bag turned out beautiful! Love the cardigan for your upcoming niece or nephew. The project bag is beautiful. Your fabrics are gorgeous! Had to watch part of your video muted because of the sound issues but watched it the rest of the way through on mute. Missed hearing your life updates and hope all is as well as it can be with you. Happy stitching and knitting or whatever other crafting you work on.

    Hi Zoe, lovely to see you again. I couldn’t hear you very well and your sound went a bit funny so far through. So glad you enjoyed the retreat. You got some gorgeous fabric while you were there. The baby grow bag is so cute! Love Bumble. Happy stitching 😊

    Lovely to see you again Zoe😀. It was good to catch up. I was hoping to see the little cat you crocheted. The baby knits are gorgeous. Loved your choice of fabrics. As Elizabeth says the Darlicks visited at 46 minutes. Such a shame as I'm sure you were telling us some really interesting things. I wondered who picked the book. Happy Easter. Stay safe and well🤗

    Loved the first half of your video although 8 had to crank the sound on the tv to max to hear you and enjoyed hearing you talk about the retreat where I met you recently. Sadly I had to turn the sound off altogether for the rest of the video as it was a cross between a Daley invasion and you speaking underwater. However I did enjoy looking at all your haul and goodies from the retreat. Your cats are super cute and I did laugh when coco decided to investigate your bag at the beginning. Hope to see another video soon with more stitching progress. Stay safe and we’ll love to you and your mum jxx

    Watched it all now apart from the end where the sound goes haywire! Love the baby gro bag..really lovely! You got some great fabrics from Kate! I’m working on Maiden of Tubbataha at the moment, started it at the retreat..lovely to work on, and that fabric will be great for her.

    Really enjoyed the video. I am glad that you and your mum enjoyed the retreat. It was nice to see your progress on your wips. Love your new sampler. Beautiful finish that you showed at the end. The houses are really cute. After the 48 minutes, I wasn't able to understand the most part that you were saying🙃. Take care

    Sound went crazy for me half way through. Thought I'd been invaded by aliens. Fabric looked amazing though

    It’s so lovely spending time with you again Zoe 💜 You’ve made some great progress on your wips - and I can’t believe you worked on 64ct fabric!! I adore kitty time 😻 My Luna is the same as Bumble. She’s been with us for 8 years, but every shower and every time we do laundry (washer and dryer) she goes crazy. Zoomies and growing, it’s crazy. Maybe swearing *will* help…
    Future Zoe (or insert name here) has so much to do! I do not like past Tess and everything she’s signed me up for. See you next time 💜 xx

    Hi Zoe, lovely video as always. Just wanted to let you know the sound is normal, but then about 47mins in it starts to make the same noise as Take 1 sorry.

      Oh no! At least half of the video was ok though! I really have no idea what to do with it. It sounds fine in the editing app, just not when it gets to here 🤷‍♀️ I think I need to find someone who is a bit more techy than me to help 😅
      Thank you for letting me know! Xx

      @@cococreates26 hi, I'm afraid I'm not a person to help, technology isn't something I'm great with. I enjoyed your video as always, don't really know why it changes, the video itself is fine, just the sound goes very distorted. Hope someone can help sort it for you ❤

    Hi Zoe. So badly want to watch you but the sound is so quiet, even the subtitles didn’t help! I missed meeting you at Essex..maybe next time!?

    Great video until the sound went funny.
