    What a delightful visit with you! I can’t believe how fast you are buzzing through the petite! My goodness! So glad you had a bird segment, I’ve never seen a Western Tanager in real life…and although I know this one wasn’t in real life, I feel like they always are 😂 Blessed and Happy Birthday to you! Congratulations on your son’s upcoming graduation!

    Congrats on the seagull finish! I do love your chatty monthly vlog. The lighthouse is looking fabulous. The hummingbird is so vibrant. When I was a teenager, I would climb up into my grandmother's mimosa trees to read a book, but would get happily distracted by all the hummingbirds flitting around me sipping at the flowers. 😊

    Love your videos so much. So inspiring !
    Dimensions tends to leave you a two inch border all around the fabric. Something you can do is subtract the design size from the size of the fabric to see how much border you have and then stitch down and over from a corner that amount. I always double and triple check to make sure that it’s actually 2 inches down and 2 inches over before starting. In each case that I have done a dimensions it has been 2 inches. I wish they would give you three inches. Of course you could always use another piece of fabric. 😂

      Ah yes, you're right! That is a good (easier) way to start in the corner besides counting. 3 inches would be nice!!!

    I am intrigued by those new hoops you are using. I am a stitch in hand stitcher since 1988 lol. However I am about to finish my first Mirabilia and I think beading in a frame or large hoop will be helpful. I do have a stand to hold the frame. I adore birds. Peacock and hummingbirds are so colorful and beautiful! Thank you for your videos

      I think they are worth giving a try, especially if you have a stand! Happy Beading!

    Another great video. I really like the peacock and hummingbird kits. I'm working on a Laurel Burch kit called Cat Collage. Her style is so colorful.

    Great bday starts, love the hummingbird or the peacock. I used a nurge hoop on my last finish and it didn't crimp or distort the stitches. I love the nurge.
