Thank you Kathryn - it’s such a beautiful poem to spend time with stitching. Isn’t it wonderful how our textiles allow us to explore and evoke so much. Cheers, Christine
Amazing work and definitely expresses the themes of the poem you chose. I love how the container is so busy yet balanced. The varieties or stitching really unites the piece. Beautiful work!
Thank you Christine for your video and what a lovely poem and your interpretation in your piece. Never worry a tidy desk is the sign of a cluttered mind they say😂😂 and research showed that creativity flowed with a messy desk in many cases especially with crafters so we are good to go!!. Here in the UK it is supposed to be summer 🙄🤔 we are waiting, so it is strange to hear you talk of winter , I always assumed it was hot all year just varying degrees. I imagine there are climate differences throughout the country. Have a great weekend and lovely walks.
Thank you Carol for your kind reassurance. I have definitely heard that messy desk and creative link made before and also intelligence too. Here in Sustralia we don’t get the same level of chill as you in the UK but the mountains do get snow and it can definitely be frosty in the mornings with icy winds at times. I hope you get a temperate summer soon. Cheers, Christine
This is a very clever method Christine, thanks for sharing. The poem is special too and your thoughtful choices of fabrics will come together well. Love it. 🤗👏🏼🌻🦋🦋🩵💙
Thank you Trish - such an inspiring poem and love that I will think of it whenever I use this vessel. I hope you’re having a lovely weekend. Cheers, Christine
Such a great idea to use your colour inspiration block to make a container 🫙 out of. Aww love all the different stitches and there is something about blue looks so relaxing and somehow warm, yep it’s a lovely sunny day here but brrrr brass money weather, lol 😜. Will watch this and just relax as I slowly recuperate. Still homeward mend and lovely u tubes to watch what more can a girl ask for, well maybe I could stitch a little.
So very beautiful.I've always wanted to do something.Slow stitching and blue.Now I am going to have to do it sing how lovely it came out. You have such a wealth of fabrics.I thought I did until I saw you a piece. Such inspiration I can't thank you enough.God bless you
Thank you Karen - I’m lucky to have the Reverse Art Truck where I get lots of small fabric samples that I love using as it keeps them out of landfill and they include wonderful fabrics 🤗 Hope you have a wonderful weekend 💙🧵🪡
Wow! That's gonna be a great slow stitch vessel! I love how you can go to the reverse art truck and find something that you wouldn't normally think of as using in your stitching but it always seems to work great. I can't wait to see you working on it more, have a great holiday weekend! TFS 😊
Beautiful project😊 Yes. I also have all sorts of containers and stuff on my table. And you are right - it is often the little pieces of fabric and thread that lie on the table that are being used😂
I’m glad I’m not alone Heidi and it is definitely true that we’re more likely to use what is in immediate reach. I hope you have a lovely weekend crafting 💙🧵🪡
Looking great Christine TFS . I’m not sure if I want to go big or small was thinking of making my self a waste bin for my craft room or just a small vessel for bits and bobs . Can’t wait for July got my books and fabrics ready . Oh just had to buy a book I’d been looking at and thinking ummm if I don’t buy it it’s going on my Christmas list but as soon as the girls said what the prompt was that’s it went straight into the basket . Just been delivered will take some photos and post in the group x
Great ideas for this prompt - maybe you can make both. And like you, I’m so very excited for the next project. Sounds like you’re all prepared! Cheers, Christine
I won't be making a vessel but this was so helpful to see how you layered the pieces on each side. It's kind of like a snippet roll I've been wanting to make. Blues are my favorite and I love the variety of patterns you selected. I also saw the next video where you added all the embellishments. So many wonderful pieces! Thank you for the inspiration and fun chats as you work! ❤
Thank you,Christine for reminding the beautiful poem! I love how you have represented it in this piece! Your method of folding the felt is so clever,when I'm going to stitch or construct something I say to myself how would Christine do this😅my mind doesn't work well with construction and reasoning! Have a wonderful long weekend! Ciao❤
Thank you Giusi - I enjoy the problem solving side of things when thinking how to structure something. And always room for evolution as I work. Hope you’re having a good weekend. Cheers, Christine
Your vessel is loolking so beautiful already Christine and I love how you've interpreted the poem, really lovely. I@m late watching this, but I hope you enjoyed your lovely long weekend :) xo
Thanks Annie - I’m so happy that this piece I started with your project is now going to be finished this month. Every project has its time. Cheers, Christine

Thanks Sally - looking forward to watching you make yours too 🤗
I love the way you have expressed the poem in the cloth, beautiful ❤

Genius way to construct the vessel so knots are hidden and stabilizer can be inserted! 😍 Great work!
Thanks Lisa - I do love the way this is working. Cheers, Christine

Brass monkey weather 😆 Hope you’re recuperating ok my friend. Stay warm and lots of cups of tea and therapeutic crafting xx
What a great idea , lots of ways to use up scraps of fabric too x ❤
Thanks Gillian 🤗
Oh.!!! I recognize the blue blanket❤❤❤❤❤
And a few others that came on my packet. I have enjoyed using them so much.
So fun seeing fabrics and laces I have shared in other people’s projects - makes my day! 🤗💙🪡🧵

This is so very lovely! Fabrics are wonderful!

Thanks Kay - I’m happy this was helpful for you. I really enjoyed this project 🤗
O! My! How creative you are! Love what you are doing! Would love to do one in a smaller size so I can catch up with you if possible. 😅
Thank you Elizabeth - it would definitely work at a smaller scale too. No hurry though, enjoy the process xx
Love the blues. Great ideas.
Thanks Martha -very relaxing working o this one and lots of fun to be had stitching on the front section! Cheers, Christine

What a great idea for the use of reverse art truck heavy duty stuff. It will hold your vessel upright nicely Christine
It really is a great resource for us - even when you don’t know how you’ll use it at the time you get it 🤗 cheers, Christine
I see some pieces that are like the ones that came in my prize package. I’m loving using them in my projects!
How wonderful to be able to share materials with stitchy friends 💙🧵🪡
