Hi Penny! I just found your podcast after listening to the 3 Ply Podcast! So I have started at Episode 1 and I am so blessed by listening to you! So refreshing and interesting you are! Thank you for posting and for taking the time to do these podcasts. These days with lockdowns and the like it is easy to become quite isolated and your podcast is a grand breath of fresh air. Thank you.❤

[@penelopeschinwag]

Well thank you Leslie and I'm glad you found me. When I look back on episode 1 it has been a journey to where I am now but I've enjoyed it and I hope you do to.

Your counted Cross Stitch is gorgeous. Love it.

Hi Eva, (my mum's name!) Thanks for watching and commenting.

Brilliant Pene. I joined you in your latest episode and have come back to episode 1 to catch up. I'm really looking forward to seeing where the next episodes take me as you're just a year younger than me so our memories will be of the same era although our journies will be quite different. Thank you for taking me along with you 😊

[@penelopeschinwag]

Thanks Sandra, they do evolve over time. I even struggled with the name! Thanks for joining me and for your comments.

Hello Penny, what a lovely channel. New here, glad YT recommended you. I'll be binge watching/listening while i work from home.
You do remind me of Kate Last homely house... love her channel too. Blessings from Pennsylvania USA

[@penelopeschinwag]

Oh, hello Tricia, How lovely you have found me. Kate was the first youtube channel I watched and like you I felt at home. I remember her getting to 1,000 subscribers, she now has 54K!. I'm glad you can work and watch/listen! I didn't know what I was going/getting into on episode 1. You'll see the changes as you binge watch. Regards to Pennsylvania.

Thanks Edina

Hi Penny had to start catching up of course. Love the shawl & will so enjoy seeing your quilts. Another thing I wish I had learnt. Hopefully will find a class. Just started some basic EPP. Epi 2 to look forward to 🧶🤗

[@penelopeschinwag]

Oh, I didn't really know what I was doing in my first episodes but hey ho. When I retired in 2020 I wanted to start a quilting class but of course lockdown put paid to that and so I taught my daughter (Kim who you met in my latest episode) and you will see the progress she made as you go along with the episodes). I taught her on zoom and she now crochets and quilts. Also my grand daughter in law learnt and she is producing wonderful work. Maybe might work for you too, hope you can find a class.

[@zena-knittingbeans7973]

@@penelopeschinwag Penny the crafting journey is such fun 🤩. Will watch through over the next few days🙏🏻😃

[@georginabatterbee5809]

Fabulous Penny 💞 you’re a beautiful breathe of fresh air! Thankyou xxx

[@coppertop2641]

Absolutely fabulous! Kim asked me to watch and I can't wait for episode 2! I'm going to be a grandmother (name will be GiGi) in October and I'm knitting a shawl for the little one. I'm keeping the tradition going, my Nan crocheted mine and Mum knitted my boys. You're looking so well. Lots of love Catherine (Hosie)

[@joandcywalker]

Hi Penny, great video. I'll be watching episode 2!

[@suegreenhill2067]

Thank you Penny that was lovely x

[@penelopeschinwag]

I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Just starting out!

[@MsPoodlelove]

My friend told me about your channel, I’m so glad she did as I’m loving it. Such a relaxing watch. 👍

[@penelopeschinwag]

Thanks so much, so glad you're enjoying it and finding it relaxing.

[@yarnmugspodcast9123]

Lovely to meet you from the very beginning. I’m very interested to hear more about your previous job and life as well as all your crafting. I also work in the NHS. Sarah 😊

[@penelopeschinwag]

Oh goodness, I look back to episode 1 now and I didn't have a name or know quite where it was going, so thanks for watching my progress. I will talk about my job a little more in future episodes. I loved it. However working in the NHS now is a challenge I think so well done.

[@heatherharris6916]

Lovely to see you :)
