    How lucky are we that you persist, not throw your hands into the air, and walk away from this platform. It matters not to us that things are not centred, (I have never noticed), it's your clever content that keeps us engaged and keen to learn. How exciting about our new upcoming project with you and the sew-along. This is so generous of you Jennifer. Many thanks, Vicki.

    I just received your book Foolproof Flower Embroidery and am on an exciting journey of discovering freeform botanical embroidery with the use of various thickness of threads. I have stitched for over 50 years using only embroidery floss. Discovering various thicknesses of fibers, threads, and ribbon has upped my game exponentially and created such texture to my botanicals💕🪡🧵🎉🇨🇦

    I accidentally watched this video twice. I’m glad because I’ve been wondering how to create a shadow box for my daughter. A few months ago, we explored the lot where a Masonic temple once stood. This lot is the site for her new home which is being built now. We found what I call “artifacts” on the site. I plan to put the artifacts in the shadow box with some sort of art at the back. The back of the new home would overlook a park if we could see thru the trees. Wouldn’t it be cool for me to stitch autumn trees for the backdrop? My daughter loves fall. I know you call your tree “dead” tho it looks like a tree passing into winter’s sleep. It’s a good idea. Thanks! ❤️💚🤎

    Jennifer, when you cut out the back of your fabric is it just to reduce the bulk? Also, is that iron on fleece you use to back your fabric? I’d so, doesn’t it make it hard to take out stitches you are not happy with? Love your work!!
