  • I'm on the threshold... So let's make a door! Stitch with me while I share my news. I am at a really significant moment in my life and I want to share some news with you while we make the first part of our May panel.
    Today we are going to use simple quilting techniques to make a doorway to a secret garden. You'll need an offcut of quilt batting and a couple of pieces of fabric for your door , and simple needle and thread.
    Think about what your doorway needs to look like to reflect your 'threshold' moment. You might also want to think about what your door is going to open up to. What do you hope the next few months will hold and what scene might represent that in your work?
    If you like what you see and want to catch all the videos in this series, you can subscribe to this channel, and if you click the notifications bell, you will never miss an upload.
    Join me at 2.30pm GMT every Sunday for a restful time of slow stitch, embroidery and textile art. Each month we are going to create a complete piece of art that we will create bit by bit each week.
    Feel free to follow my design, use my piece as inspiration, or you could use the same techniques as me to create something totally original.
    I hope to try lots of new things this year as I create my 2024 stitched journal. I hope you will come along for the ride!
    Please tag me when you post your creations on social media. @featherstitchhouse and use #fshwingingit24 so that I can see your beautiful work.

    Have fun and Happy Crafting!

    "He believes in me and he believes in our business." What a beautiful sentiment. You are blessed with a wonderful man. ❤

    Everything happens for a reason. This will be good for you even though it seems scary at first. 😊

      Thank you so much. I believe it will be good. Avoiding scary things is not always the best plan and I am glad I've taken the plunge. Much love to you. 🤗

    I’ve been following you almost from the beginning. I’ve not always done the projects, as I was committed to other projects. Like you I live with an auto immune condition and my pain and energy levels dip and rise daily. I’m turning 60 this year and that is truly a threshold! Your journey these last couple of years has been tough for you, so it’s no surprise that you took that leap of faith to make those changes. The excitement in your voice is good to hear, and your courses look amazing. Congratulations on this next phase of life.

      Thank you Elizabeth. It means the world to me that you have stuck with my channel. Big birthdays are really important milestones - time to reflect on 6 decades of life experience. The wisdom you have gained from the road you've traveled is precious. Hold on to it and be bold in giving it away too. Best wishes to you and those you love as you step through your threshold. I wonder what will be on the other side! 🤗

    Thank you so much for your story I am also going through a change where I turn 50 this year and my kids are all grown, I am also a teacher, but I am unemployed as well due to health limitations and not being able to find work who are willing to work with my disability. I can relate to everything that you’ve gone through And thank you so much for sharing your art. It helps so much to find someone else out there. Who’s going through the same thing even though you’re on the other side of the world God bless you, Rebecca and thanks again.

      Bless you. Chronic illness is not talked about nearly enough. It's hard, particularly when it swallows up you career along with it. There is a path for you, I am sure. I am so glad that if nothing else, my story helped you feel a little more connected. Thank you so much for reaching out. You are stronger and more powerful than you can possibly imagine.

    Thank you for sharing your story and inspiration, and I hope you find your meadow. I love the idea of a door and am going to try and join in for the first time this month. My husband had a serious accident last year and our retirement together is no longer the one we hoped for, but we are on a threshold to a different kind of life together, and it is up to us what we make of it, so this feels like a significant project. I think I might do two doors as we share our way forward together. Good luck with all your ventures

    • @featherstitchhouse
      @featherstitchhouse  2 месяца назад +1

      Thank you so much. I am so sorry to hear about your husband's accident. Life throws all sorts of awfulness at us sometimes. Your approach is so healthy though. Your retirement will be different to what you had expected , but it doesn't have to be less wonderful. I wish you much joy. I hope you find your meadow too. X

    I am so moved and honored to be stitching along with you this year of my initiatory Winging It!! The story of your life, told as an unfolding evolving journey, is the kind of personal story so many of us thirst to hear. Your story is one of a powerful redirected transformation on so many levels. And that you have the courage and calm to express it online, stitching it at the same time is poetry!!! Brava to you and your growing new teaching endeavor!! Yes to being on the threshold of great potential!!

    You have not left teaching. You are the best teacher I have ever encountered. I learned more in one video from you than a year in a class. Loved hearing your story while you stitched. All the best to you in your business. I'm across the Pond and a continent in Oregon. Going to give this a go.

    • @featherstitchhouse
      @featherstitchhouse  2 месяца назад

    Great theme of a door for transitions. You sound like you're ready for the next stage of your journey...
    I agree with you that everyone has creativity... It just gets buried under the other things that happen in life.
    I wish you happiness in the venture you're moving into...

    • @featherstitchhouse
