Thank you soooo much Lea for your videos, you and Elfin have helped me in my recovery from a very dark place after I fell ill last year. I am in Birmingham, West Midlands, and I am sure from your accent you know it well! You and Elfin are such a breathe of fresh air and beautiful both inside and out, I love everything you do please keep up the videos, they light up every part of me. I love my herbal teas, peppermint and nettle, chamomile, sage and lavender, and basically anything that I can pick out of the pots on my small porch at the apartment. I have just started with my fleece dying and weaving now I am getting stronger, and that is down to your inspiration. So thank you to you and Elfin from the bottom of my heart. 💜💜💜
It's so very lovely to read your message, I really hope you carry on feeling better and better and recover really well. I was born in Stourbridge, very near to Birmingham 🥰 I'm so glad you enjoy the videos. And it's wonderful to hear about your handweaving and wool dying. Thank you for your lovely message! Lots of Love to you, from Lea 🌿🌸💗💗💗
I'm from anglesey love the tea and craft along I've recently taken up spinning I do crochet so enjoying the different types of wool natural thinking of having a go at weaving I love your shawls /wraps I enjoy nettle tea and peppermint x
It's lovely to hear from you, I hope you are enjoying learning handspinning, it's such a lovely craft 😍 And weaving is really lovely to do. I'm glad you enjoyed the video 💗
I’m in south Fl USA IM 79 retired nurse, I crochet, working on granny squares for a blanket. Also I embroider, making a baby quilt, Sunbonnet Sue, squares. Almost done with it. I drink green tea, especially in evenings. I enjoy your channel.😊
Lovely videos in your beautiful surroundings. While I watch, I love to cross stitch. I wish I was as handy as you with your needle art. Your work is lovely. We live high up in the mountains 🏔️ in the States. During the summer months, which are short here at this elevation, I love to stitch while sitting amongst wildflowers and the mountain terrain drinking iced tea. Which is a southern custom in the States. But a tradition I’ve brought with me up here to the Northern part of the world that we live. May you all have a wonderful, sunny year and happy stitching to you all! Toodles & Tea cups! 🦋🩵💙
I'm so glad you like the videos, thank you very much! It's lovely to hear from you and about the mountains and customs there. Thank you! Have a wonderful summer time 🥰🌿🌸💗
I love everything you are making! I live in Western Kentucky and am a spinner and weaver also. I teach rigid heddle weaving at an art college. I just finished a woven piece that I hope to turn into a jacket. Currently I have my loom warped for a shawl. I love most herbal teas and occasionally make my own. Please keep up the videos! I look forward to seeing what you and Elfen are making.
Thanks for another great podcast. I especially enjoyed seeing your stitched fabric squares. I love slow stitching. I’m also a weaver, spinner, and all fiber arts person. Thanks for sharing❤
I'm definately celebrating, I had a hospital procedure yesterday and I dont have cancer.😂 Love your romany caravan, I would be very happy sitting crafting with you. Im from the midlands, so not too far away from you x
I really like this video. The only part missing was Elfin. You two Ladies are beautiful inside and out. Your "Craft" is one I'm glad to see is NOT one that is dieing out. I really loved the video where you did the hand dying of your fibers. I cant do much since I'm recovering from a stroke. Some days I'm so nauseated that all I can do is stay in bed. That is where I watch your videos all over again. Thanks Again for such a lovely video !!!!! ❤❤❤❤. P.S. The sounds from your wagon are so peaceful. The combination of the chickens, the chimes, and the water. What's not to LOVE ????
Thank you very much! I'm glad you enjoyed the video 🥰 Elfin has been busy both times I recorded tea in the wagon so far, but hopefully she'll be able to join in next time. I'm glad you like the hand dye videos on the fire, I love doing those, and I will be doing some more quite soon. I really hope you recover well and soon, sending lots of Love to you, I'm glad the videos are something that's nice for you to watch while you're resting. That's lovely that the garden and wagon sounds are peaceful 🥰 Thank you so much! 🌿🌼🌸🍃💗💗💗
Wishing you and your family a most magical solstice time. I really am enjoying the privilege of seeing lovely Elfin grow and become a main contributer in the very artful vlogs ~~ you and she are a colossal inspiration to me, a slow-living spinner & weaver in the hills of northern California. Thank you for your wonderful videos!
Oh, I forgot to talk about what I'm making. Presently been learning to weave (only in the last year!) and immediately went into ultra fine yarns (like 20/2 cotton) but I'm expecting a delivery of a natural dye kit soon, by Earthhues from Seattle, and will be delving into THAT! That being, the fine cottons, as well as raw fibers yet to be spun. THis Autumn I am planning on trying wild weaving as you have been doing with Elfin, and so going to do more fiber mixes and try that , forthcoming, natural dyed as well as some synthetic dyed, bits & bobs, and make some big shawls and throw blankets on my 48" rigid heddle loom.
This is the first video of you I have and the beauty you work with and the colors are beautiful.I will watch every single one I can. Your daughter is absolutely beautiful and her weaving Id beautiful.
I knit sew and crochet. But my passion is doll clothes. If my daughter or I need something (clothing, winter gear) I make it usually. I love to upcycle a lot of cloth from clearance clothing as well as clothing from thrift shops.
I'm in South Africa and just love all you and Elfie do. You do so Much! I have been spinning while watching and also enjoy slow stitching and making journals. Elfie is amazing. ❤
Just found ya, your lovely video reminded me of our small hillside farm back when my kids were little and life was slower and ever so beautiful. I tottaly loved this video! very relaxing and your crafts are all so well done
Another gorgeous relaxing video to watch, thankyou Lea and Alfie for being so inspiring. We've just had winter solstice in New Zealand and it's been very cold, so today was cosy by the fire drinking rose bud tea and doing some needle felting on a dress that I'm renovating on. Thankyou so much again for your lovely vlog xx
I'm a spinner, weaver and dyer from Tasmania, Australia. At this very moment I'm unravelling the beginning of a crochet blanket that wasn't looking good, the colours were wrong together. I'm spinning some hand dyed merino on my drop spindle and I just warped up my loom with some handspun that I botanically dyed.
Hi I’m from Wales and am crocheting a doily which will be stretched into a ring. What a wonderful relaxing video. Gosh you make so much and there’s always something new. Thanks xx
Loved your vlog, everything you make is so lovely and inspirational. The pakoras looked yummy, would love to see the recipe on your next vlog. Thank you 😊
I loved this episode. I am originally from Wordsley! I live in Cornwall now, not far from Lands End. I really enjoy the quiet sewing bits at the end, very soothing. Sometimes i sew along and sometimes i replay the end so I can close my eyes and listen to the peace. Well done.
Hello from Canada! I am spinning a skein of sunset-coloured Rambouillet fibre as I watch this tea in the wagon. I am currently reading Upstream by Mary Oliver- highly recommend if you like nature writing! Your beautiful weavings have inspired me to get my own rigid heddle loom for my birthday this year. Can't wait to start making my own beautiful creations!
Love your videos so very much I am spinning some Gotland and it's so beautiful I will then weave with it not at your standard though. Drinking some dandelion and chicory coffee. I am Irish but have lived in New Zealand for nearly 30 years. I find your videos bring me peace and joy and will watch them several times. Sending warm crafty hugs your way 😊❤
Hi Kathryn, thank you so much for your lovely message! That sounds lovely 😍 I bet it will be beautiful! I love working with Gotland wool, and dandelion coffee 😍🐑☕ Wow, New Zealand must feel so different to Ireland. I'm so glad you enjoy the videos. Love from Lea 💗
Hi I love Elfies colours..very well done young lady!! So cute the tea in the wagon..cute ..I do like all the journals you made. Great colours and funky design..very calming too .thank you😊
Hi, thank you so much for your lovely comment. I'm glad you enjoyed tea in the wagon, I will post a new one next week, and there will be a look inside one of the art journals too. Thank you 🥰💗
Happy Midsummer’s Day to you and Elfin. Love today’s podcast and seeing what you have been making. Today I have been scouring white cotton fabric, which I will mordant tomorrow. I will be doing some flower printing on it when it is ready. I have just been given some pedigree Portland fleece, which I can’t wait to wash and spin and probably dye with natural dyes. John Lewis Stempel is one of my favourite writers too. The illustrations in your book are done by an artist who lives in a village close to me. I enjoy doing jigsaws which she designs. One of my favourite teas is lemon balm, particularly at this time of year.
🌞 Happy Solstice to you. Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. It's lovely to hear about the projects you are working on. That's lovely, I will have a look for the jigsaws 🥰💗
Hi from Debs in the south West of Western Australia. I am so inspired seeing yours and Elfin's fibre crafts. I do most of the fibre crafts but weaving is my latest rabbit hole. Thank you for sharing and reminding me of what l love, fibre arts, special blend tea, me time, sharing and family. Love your videos.
Lovely to see you again Lea. ❤ I’m in New Zealand, it’s winter here… and I’m hanging the washing onto a wooden rack in front of the fire to air. Bread dough is rising and I’m about to pick up my knitting xxx
I live in the hills of mid Wales, land of the rainbows. I love all of your videos and content and very much enjoy Tea in the Wagon with you while I am knitting my Bee Happy jumper, which I hope to have ready for the autumn. Blessings be to you and your lovely family
Hi 🥰 lovely to hear from you. Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoy the videos! Your been jumper for autumn sounds so lovely 😍 I'll post another tea in the wagon next week 🫖🌸 Love from Lea 💗
Just found your channel. It is inspiring! I am weaving at the moments. This is the first time I’ve used a linen warp, which I’m not real crazy about. I used to say loom and I love to use all kinds of different 5% lots of color lots of texture.
Recipe for pakoras, please! ❤ They look so delicious! I love Greek Mountain tea. It’s very refreshing and thirst-quenching. I find it to be very grounding and comforting. I am watching from Riegelsville, Pennsylvania in the USA. It’s a small river town on the Delaware River across the river from New Jersey. 😊. I love seeing part of your beautiful life and your stunning creations! ❤
@@jfparker60 thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoy the videos! Is it the spindle I was working on in Tea In The Wagon? If it's that one, it's from carrycherryspindle com. It's lovely to spin on 😍
Hi Lea, I'm a new subscriber, amazed by all the lovely projects you and your daughter make. I am currently spinning fleece bought from a woolfest here in New Zealand. Keep doing what you are doing.
thank you - that was so calming and inspiring. I live on the Isle of Wight and have a lovely hut we built which is my calm space to create in or just be in. I am knitting some socks with moth design on. Learning to spin but am a slow learner it seems with the wheel but am excited to create more. I loved sharing tea in the hut with you and love watching what you and Elfin get up to - it is all beautiful. I like the young unopen buds of blackberry for tea with a little rosemary.
Hi, thank you very much! Your hut sounds lovely and peaceful 😍 and I love the sound of your moth socks! The spinning wheel can be really tricky to get used to with the feet doing something different to the hands until muscle memory happens and it will all come together 🛞 I'm glad you like tea in the wagon, I'm going to post another one next week 🫖 rosemary sounds like a lovely addition to the tea 💗
@@LeaWildCreative Thank you - I will find more time to practice spinning. I would love the recipe for pakoras too. thank you so much and look forward to the next tea in the wagon and vlog. xxx
Hello and thank you for such a lovely blog. So many beautiful things to see. I’ve been watching you whilst I cross stitch. I live on the east coast of Australia by the sea. Blessings Gail
Just started watching you. 😁. I’m a Welsh 🧙🏻♀️hippy pixie living in north Wales. It was so lovely to find you. I love what you do. So amazing to watch the process. Your little girl is also so talented and I love her name. 😁. I’m a creator of many things. I love to combine wood and art also making creative art pieces. But I also have fabrics and wool that I do alsorts with. 😁. Anyhoo take care love from pixie 🏴🧚♂️
I commented earlier about learning slow stitching. I looked it up on the Interwobble and I'm just going to have a go! Thanks for giving me the inspiration to finally get on with it. Hugs from Crete!
Loved this - thank you. Rainbow cardigan complete, but as my 4-year old granddaughter fell in love with the yarn, I'm now knitting her a little dress in the same yarn. I think I'll be ready for a change after that! Favourite tea at the moment is a mix of mint, lemon balm and bronze fennel, all of which fortunately grow like weeds all over my garden. Looking forward to the next one xx
I'm not a quilter but have lots of bits of fabric I've saved over the years just because they were beautiful. I'd like to do the sort of sewing you were doing on this vlog but don't know how. Can you give me some advice? What is slow stitching? I enjoy sewing by hand and make repairs to clothes and I knit, so I'm fairly handy. BTW I've made lots of crocheted fabric strips to make a curtain - inspired by your wagon curtain - and it's nearly ready to go up. Only the beads and extra bits to add. I'm reading 'Cuddy' by Benjamin Myers. It's about St Cuthbert but it's very unusual! Irreverent and funny at times. Thank you for a beautiful evening, Lea. Hugs from Crete!
Yes I will show you some slow stitching in the next tea in the wagon 🥰 That's lovely, where are you going to put your curtain, and what kinda of colours have you crocheted 😍 Thank you for your message, Love from Lea 💗
@@LeaWildCreative I made them from three old sarongs which were a bit worn at the edges. They're in yellow with white patterning and blues with purpley red bits. I'm going to add all the beads I never wear and buttons I've never used! I get such great ideas from watching you and then adapt them to what I want to make and what materials I have. The slow stitching/ hand quilting will be real help to me. Just something basic to start me on the right track. Thank you so much. Lin.
Oooh! I have American Black Current shrubs in my meadow. I will have to try their leaves for tea. Do you simply pick some leaves and let them dry before you steep them?
I thoroughly enjoyed this vlog, can I ask what are the various pieces of music? Loved them. Life looks very idyllic where you are. I am currently working on The witching hour shawl by Greenlambkin Yarn. I’m using some yarn I bought in Cornwall 2 weeks ago it’s called Falmouth Bay and it’s by The Camels Yarn.
I really enjoy your crafts. I also love bookbinding, weaving, and quilting. Today I am working on a tape loom, making garter tapes (tapes to hold up stockings), for Colonial reenactment in Delaware County, Pennsylvania. I also have alpaca lace on a rigid heddle, making a very delicate scarf.
What a beautiful, relaxing video. The music, the animals, your work, and most importantly your soft voice. What a real treat. Thank you. ❤
That's so kind, thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed the video 🥰💗

I’m a creator of many things. I love to combine wood and art also making creative art pieces.
But I also have fabrics and wool that I do alsorts with. 😁.
Anyhoo take care love from pixie 🏴🧚♂️
I commented earlier about learning slow stitching. I looked it up on the Interwobble and I'm just going to have a go! Thanks for giving me the inspiration to finally get on with it. Hugs from Crete!
That's lovely 😍 I hope you have a lovely time stitching 🧵🪡 I'll put something into the next one too 💗
Loved this - thank you. Rainbow cardigan complete, but as my 4-year old granddaughter fell in love with the yarn, I'm now knitting her a little dress in the same yarn. I think I'll be ready for a change after that! Favourite tea at the moment is a mix of mint, lemon balm and bronze fennel, all of which fortunately grow like weeds all over my garden. Looking forward to the next one xx
I Just wanted to say this was an interesting video from a sincere manner
Thanks so much!
I'm not a quilter but have lots of bits of fabric I've saved over the years just because they were beautiful. I'd like to do the sort of sewing you were doing on this vlog but don't know how. Can you give me some advice? What is slow stitching? I enjoy sewing by hand and make repairs to clothes and I knit, so I'm fairly handy.
BTW I've made lots of crocheted fabric strips to make a curtain - inspired by your wagon curtain - and it's nearly ready to go up. Only the beads and extra bits to add.
I'm reading 'Cuddy' by Benjamin Myers. It's about St Cuthbert but it's very unusual! Irreverent and funny at times. Thank you for a beautiful evening, Lea. Hugs from Crete!
Yes I will show you some slow stitching in the next tea in the wagon 🥰 That's lovely, where are you going to put your curtain, and what kinda of colours have you crocheted 😍 Thank you for your message, Love from Lea 💗
@@LeaWildCreative I made them from three old sarongs which were a bit worn at the edges. They're in yellow with white patterning and blues with purpley red bits. I'm going to add all the beads I never wear and buttons I've never used!
I get such great ideas from watching you and then adapt them to what I want to make and what materials I have.
The slow stitching/ hand quilting will be real help to me. Just something basic to start me on the right track. Thank you so much. Lin.
@@linpollock54 Hi Lin, it sounds really pretty! It's lovely to hear what you made 😍
Oooh! I have American Black Current shrubs in my meadow. I will have to try their leaves for tea. Do you simply pick some leaves and let them dry before you steep them?
I thoroughly enjoyed this vlog, can I ask what are the various pieces of music? Loved them. Life looks very idyllic where you are. I am currently working on The witching hour shawl by Greenlambkin Yarn. I’m using some yarn I bought in Cornwall 2 weeks ago it’s called Falmouth Bay and it’s by The Camels Yarn.
I really enjoy your crafts. I also love bookbinding, weaving, and quilting. Today I am working on a tape loom, making garter tapes (tapes to hold up stockings), for Colonial reenactment in Delaware County, Pennsylvania. I also have alpaca lace on a rigid heddle, making a very delicate scarf.
Thank you very much, I'm glad you enjoyed the video. It's lovely to hear about your crafts and the projects you are working on.
