Brilliant. Lol at the cooking slot, if it doesn’t fit eat it 🤣 Gorgeous bag & very interesting fascinating fact. Eva ♥️ Enjoyed the chinwag x

What a lovely idea to keep a positive stroke bank! Thank you for this useful information about TA - I can really see how I can incorporate these little snippets into my daily life. Glad to see your little tsutsu bear is coming along - I hadn’t heard of that yarn before so I am keen to try some. And I can see why you were attracted to that beautiful fabric - your project bag looked great. I enjoyed listening to your mum and also meeting your chickens! Thank you for a chinwag full of variety! xx

[@penelopeschinwag]

Thanks Helen, my tsutsu bear is coming along very very slowly but I'm loving him.

Hi lovely project bag I can’t sew. I’m thinking of having at knitting socks, I can do it upto the heel and the toe then I get stuck. I do enjoy your podcast and seeing your lovely mum to xx

[@94hydenseek]

I'm still enjoying catching up on your vlogs, love the interesting facts and your beautiful makes. You cooking slot did give me a giggle, it was wonderful!

[@penelopeschinwag]

Good show, thanks for watching, nothing like a giggle to keep us all going

[@coppertop2641]

Loved your project bag. My friend up in Yorkshire made me one which I've brought on holiday. Your pasty tutorial was hilarious. Pete's cosy hat was very fetching!

[@penelopeschinwag]

Oh thank you!

[@suegreenhill2067]

Thank you, that was brilliant. Loved the cooking slot, Pete with the tea cosy on his head, lol. Your mum was wonderful as usual. Most of the bags I have made have come from Erica Arndt tutorials, she is very good, your bag is beautiful and I love the fabric from Elmhirst, I have been admiring their stuff for ages but not bought myself any yet. Looking forward to your next chinwag xx

[@penelopeschinwag]

Thanks again Sue, I'm so pleased to have found Erica Arndt. Her instructions are so clear and now I'm using my stash it makes me feel better to look at Elmhirst! Although the recipe looks dire on the clips I have made it over and over. Just make sure everything is cold as the cream cheese pastry sure can melt quickly!.

[@georginabatterbee5809]

Oh Penny.. 😂 your cooking slot… wonderful 🥰 I’m going to give those pasties a try! Xxx

[@penelopeschinwag]

They are really worth it. So soft and unctuous. Make sure everything is cold! Even so, they cooked up great. A firm favourite with everyone.

[@erinm4873]

Wonderful episode as always, but the cooking segment was fantastic!

[@penelopeschinwag]

Who would have thought they could turn out well! How not to do it!

[@shewhocraftsandplans7736]

Oh boy that bag is BEAUTIFUL! I’d order one from you if you made to order! STUNNING xxxxx

[@penelopeschinwag]

Oh thank you! Never say never

[@heathergreaney3365]

Thank you, another lovely Chinwag. Lots of chuckles with the pasties 🙃 but they looked delicious 😋. What a lovely move for Eva to such a new modern place. Is your project bag from a pattern?

[@penelopeschinwag]

Glad you had a laugh with me! The pattern is in the notes underneath the episode but here it is in case you can't see it.
