I LOVE this purple rice bag!!!

People making these in 2024 are calling them "hossif" which means "housewife" in another language.

I am 64 yo and all my schools are still schools (in WI).

Love the purple and the dragonfly!

Thank you for the Awesome video. So candid. So much of it resonates with me.💐

Refurbishing fabrics from Goodwill items. It is amazing what I find sometimes. One day i obtained then I cut up two new with tags wedding dresses.

I’m having fun catching up with older videos. I love your dyed fabrics ❤️

Such a pretty piece Martha. Beautiful and bright.

I just started watching these videos, love them! I'm on my 4th heart and 9the one watching them. I hope you don't stop or start again. You inspired me to a new project. Best wishes and lots of hugs ❤❤❤

It has come along well Martha. Such lovely bright colors.

This is looking great! Very beautiful!

Your Stitch the Seasons art project is magnificent!!! I love it! Thanks for the shout-out on the hurricane Debby comment. Im really happy it made you smile. I can't wait to see your next art project. Hugs ❤

I would love to get a heart pattern that I can make some as well. These would make a great little gift for someone as a unique gift tag.

So bright and cheerful Martha. Glad you put the lace on the birdhouse. Cheers, Christine

Gouache is acrylic. The colors are brighter. I can tell the difference when i use gouache vs acrylics. I do use watercolor pencils, and have 4 different types of watercolors. Some are good but others are great and again it comes to brightness or deep colors you get. As far as how the colors spread on paper it depends if you are trying to paint on dry paper or wet on wet. In my opinion i dont think size/shape brush makes a difference but what you do with water and what effect you want to create. I am not professional or have i taken art classes. Just following people on you tube and experimenting. But also practice, practice. Im having problems painting fabric so i can embroider parts if it such as leaves or flowers.

Your calendar looks GREAT with your panels!!🎉❤

Very very nice! You are going to look at these panels over and over and be so glad you did them!❤

Very nice. A lot of hard work. I started watching you when you started the winter piece. Can't wait to see what you do next.

That calendar is so cool!

I like what you are doing with the birdhouse 😃

Had to pop back to leave another comment, after you mentioned the surge protectors I was able to reach back into my memory and recalled something about them needing replacements especially after losing power, which happens here often. Later today I am off to pick up a few new surge protectors, we have lost power every third day since mid July and twice last week lost power when I was texted the repairs were complete in my area, I had power up until they restored it. I am working on the k3n.clothtales SAL and the Roxy's girls vol. 6, and currently stitching one of my own pieces for autumn.

I went back and rewatched this cute shot glass pincushion, the first running of the video we lost power for a few hours (common here in the rain storms) so I didn't get to see the end or have a chance to leave a comment. I've made pincushions in teacups so I will give the shot glass a try.

Just to let you know I enjoy your videos, watching what you make and listening to you chat. Your Summer piece is looking great, I found myself admiring your beehive as you stitched the butterfly. I would love to see you make the lining for your crossbody bag and enjoyed watching you make the Maine tidepool piece as well.

I love to watch you and hear your stories about your life and see your progress on your projects -- all of them!! Just was on holidays, then a surgery, and now my Dad is in the hospital. Lots of life issues and having a hard time keeping caught up. Yes please to seeing the lining get done - as so many ways to do them and still trying to figure out a way to do mine ….❤

Looks lovely. Good news on the umbrella stand.

Another nice video. I pulled out my tri-fold pouch to wok on. I've pinned on some lace trim and reorganized my threads in color order, instead of number order. I just need something todo to take my mind off my hubbies new health issues. Times are going to be pretty stressful for a while, so I'm going to need an outlet to help manage my feelings.

Fun little project Martha - folks could use the little single use jam jars you sometimes get eg at hotels. The Bonne Maman ones are faceted and fluted. I made a mini birthday cake pin cushion for Alex’s mum with pins as the candles, last year. Cheers, Christine

Just watched, August 2025, great video. Can’t wait to do this. I believe in your philosophy that we’re doing it for fun, doesn’t have to be perfect.

I have been going through your videos. Love what you have done on this bag. I am going to make some for some friends and needed ideas. Thank you.

Too bad you feel that we that we should hear all your complaining. You could have said sonething to her. I am so surprised that I hung in through all off the problems that you had. You asked so I am saying that perhaps group functions are not for you. I have lots of health issues to...among them are the needing to eat on time. I have found myself in this situation before and have just gone ahead and eaten. No Bitching! You also could have simply moved your cloth to the line and sat inn the shade. We are adults....sorry but I needed to say something. I am sure others wanted to. Your work is nice but people can only listen to so much before they turn that stuff off.

where u live that you have 83 weather and north is snow?. I'm from NW Iowa small town. just found you.

love the hearts.

I have a big bag of walnut shells too 😂

That's cool! Besides a flower, you could do an ice cream cone. Adorable. Still watching 🎉❤❤

I'm probably the only person who doesn't own one of those gray wool mats. Can you please tell me where you got yours? Great project and video! Hugs ❤

Got home from our anniversary vacation yesterday afternoon. I have a lot of videos to catch up on after being gone for a week.. Yours was the 1st one to show up on my list. I love how this project is looking. I hope the brace helps your thumb pain.

Hi Martha. I’m sorry to hear about all the thumb drama you’re going through. It’s hard to find a good Dr. these days. I think a lot of the problem is that they are just overwhelmed with patients. Hopefully your brace and physical therapy will help. I’m not doing the Roxy project this time. I had some other things I wanted to work on. Take care and try to stay cool. ❤️🙂

Love the bee too!

Neat beehive!

Nice hoop stand. That's nice that Tony is supportive. Sorry about your thumb. Hugs ❤
