Oh Elaine, I got a tear of joy when you told us your WONDERFUL health news. Yay!! I'm so grateful with you & for you. ❤ Great pieces & progress also. Thank you for sharing time with us again. 😁
Lovely to see you again Ellie, wonderful news too hear your health is ok. What a relief that must be for you. Thank you so much for the shout-out of my channel, appreciate you watching and encouraging others to watch 🌹❤️ Have an awesome time away and I look forward to hearing all about it. Take care and happy stitching 🪡🌹
Hi Elaine! So glad you have a clean bill of health and that you'll be able to enjoy your vacation! I hope you get to visit Pam and her Stitch New England shop - the shop is very nice and Pam is so nice and very helpful. Loved seeing all of your WIPS and purchases! Happy stitching!
Hi Cindy, thanks so much for your kind words. Thanks for the shop recommendation, I hope I get the chance to visit Pat’s shop, I will let you know!! Take care and happy stitching 🧵🧵🪡🪡
You are coming across the pond to my area! There are Two LNS in Massachusetts. Stitch New England which is in North Attleboro MA and very close to RI which is run by Pam of Stitching in the Land of Good Enough. And The World In Stitches which is in Littleton MA north of Boston. About an hour from Salem….depending on traffic. Randi runs The World In stitches and is lovely. She usually has a very good selection of seraphim fabrics. Both shops definitely worth the trip. You will love your trip…perfect time of year to visit New England.
Thanks so much for the recommendations, I most definitely will try and check them out!! I have to say your area looks beautiful and I can’t wait to visit. I’ve only been to NYC on the east coast, all my other visits have been west coast so I’m really looking forward to this!! Happy stitching 🧵🧵🪡🪡
Hi Elaine, I'm so relieved that your health scare is over, it must have been a difficult time for you and your family, now you can really look forward to your holiday 🙂 Wow that sampler sal your starting is absolutely stunning and I can't wait to see your progress! And at the other end of the spectrum is that cat small in the Halloween magazine, I've definitely got to do that one, it's brilliant 😁 Have a fab catch up with your stitchy mates and I'll look forward to hearing all your news in a few weeks 😀
So glad to hear you are healthy!! I know it is a big relief!! I love as always seeing your progress I did stitch while you where talking and i really enjoyd it and did get a lot done thuis evening 😀 so thanks for the company 😀 Happy stitching

Awesome update Elaine and I love the Antique Sampler hanging on your wall and the story behind it. Im so very Happy that your Health scare was just that,and only a scare. That you are Healthy....Great news 💃💃!! Your progress was awesome and I love seeing Cheese Delivery and its progress...I really enjoyed seeing them all. Glad yalls weather is better and not as hot as it was. And so excited that your getting to come to the States 🇺🇲 ...hope it isn't really hot here when you come. Cant wait to hear all about your experiences and seeing your shopping....your going to be like a kid in a candy shop!! Hope you enjoy your holiday thats coming up and you get some nice stitchy time...until we hear from you again,stay safe and enjoy whatever your stitching on 🥰
Hi Jodee, I’m so looking forward to visiting your lovely country again!! It’s been to long thanks to covid 😢it won’t be too hot as not till October. Every time I come to the states I need a spare empty suitcase 😂😂😂 hope you are keeping well and not to hot!! Take care and happy stitching 🪡🪡🧵🧵❤️
What happy news about your health! Yay! It changes your perspective on a lot of things, doesn't it? Your wips look great. Take care and thanks for sharing.
So glad to hear you got good news on your health issue. Your wips are gorgeous. I love seeing the progress you make each video. I love books so much have a library room in my house now, so really enjoy hearing about the books you read and your review and ratings. Take care!!!
Thanks for your lovely comment 😊I always wanted to make a library but never had enough room unfortunately, so I mostly read on my kindle now to save space!! Take care and happy stitching 🧵🧵🪡🪡
So happy for you that things turned out so well for you.healthwise. Enjoyed your stitching update and always look forward to your book reviews. take care.
Such a lovely update, thank you for sharing! All your projects are looking so 😊 after seeing your dragon I had to go look them up and they are just all so cute (I have to say I am very tempted to start his Mead Drogan, but I'm at 10 WIPs and that is really as many as I can handle without stress, so maybe after I finish something ^.^ ) So glad to hear that your health report was good!!! You have a wonder stitchy time these coming weeks!
Glad you got a good bill of health. You have done good progress on you projects, hope you have a great holiday look forward to seeing what goodies you bring back. Take care and stay safe, happy stitching 🧵
Lovely video, so good to see your progress on your wips. So pleased you had good news, what a scare though. Hope you sail through the next check. Thanks for sharing all that you do. Take care and happy stitching. 😊
Good to see all your progress Elaine😀. Have never heard of needle minder rusting before, needles yes had a few of those. 48k stitches, amazing especially on Cheese Delivery😁. I think the LD sampler is beautiful. I haven't forgotten about the package, I'll try to send it today. Have a good fortnight. Stay safe🤗
Great video, love all your full coverage pieces, I really like the new Chris Dunn one called Simple Pleasures. I’m glad you’re ok and that you didn’t have bad news with your health. Love your sampler on the wall beside you so steeped in history it must be lovely to own it. I’ve also read the first book you mentioned ( forgot her name lol ) I would give it a 5 as well. Look forward to your next flosstube, keep well x
Thanks for your lovely comment. I very much have my eye on simple pleasures but not until cheese delivery gets finished, though it’s hard to resist!! Take care and happy stitching 🧵🧵🪡🪡
He he. Thank you for the shout out. Some awesome stitching progress you have. Good to hear your health is good. Hopefully it stays that way. Look forward to your next video.
Hi Elaine! So wonderful to see a floss tube from you. Feast looks great and you made a lot of progress on it. Love Magic Forest. I can honestly say that I have never wanted to work on confetti - LOL! Cheese Delivery is looking great. Your tent stitch pieces really do not look like tent stitch pieces. I am so tempted to buy a Long Dog. I really like 1 Down 3 Across. Your latest spoon is so massive and beautiful. The border of Lady of Mystery is massive! I am so surprised that you had a needle minder rust on your fabric :( Sweater Weather is so cute. Love your Mill Hill bee and the progress you made. That darned frog has been terribly active lately :( I had one piece recently that I swear every time I touched it I had to frog. Wonderful haul. Really like the Mill Hill Latte pattern. Greta Goldbroom is so cute. Love And Heaven and Nature Sing, it is gorgeous but oh my that deer! 28 petite needles are my favorite needles to stitch with. So very happy that you received a clean bill of health and will keep you in my prayers for the next couple of months until your recheck at least. My thoracolumbosacral brace and I are not friends most of the time as it is still aggravating my pre-existing sacro-iliac joint dysfunction. My family physician gave me a 30-day supply of muscle relaxers and the orthopedic doctor had given me a 30-day supply of a narcotic med so they expect a long haul, 3-6 weeks of pain if the fracture heals without complication and possibly up to 3 months so I am trying to be good and not get overly rambunctious with household chores although the dirt is driving me crazy as well since I normally sweep at least twice a day due to all the dust in this apartment. Oh well, guess I will muddle through. Take care of yourself and happy stitching.
Hi Dawn, thanks for your lovely comment ❤️ oh no, sounds like you have a long haul to recovery, sending you a great big hug 🤗 I like that 1 down 3 across chart, go on treat yourself and start it, sounds like you need cheering up. Wishing you a speedy recovery my friend, take care xx
Wow, that sampler you’re going to Sal is gorgeous!! And now I really want to pick Magik forest back up. If only we had more time in a day, right?! I hope the temperature in your neck of the woods have dropped drastically, like it has here. It’s glorious!
Hi Jemima, yes it’s cooler here now but still sunny so perfect I think!! I think I need about 40 hours in a day to stitch everything 😂😂😂 take care 🪡🪡🧵🧵
Oh so glad to hear you got a clean bill of health and it was not a horrible process getting it. So exciting to hear my name- you got it right the first time- all the sounds are said:). I will email you today. I’m just catching up on episodes after a family visit and so am off to watch your fabric special.
such fabulous news Elaine 🥰 so pleased for you 💜 You will love New England, especially in the fall ! I went to Boston back in 1995 ! such a lovely city, also visited Salem, we also went to New Plymouth I think were there is a village recreated from Mayflower times, you will love it !! xx
My husband have started to say "tutti frutti" instead of confetti to mess with my head. So in my house we have started to say tutti frutti instead. And when i told a friend that she said, that what if fun confetti is tutti frutti, and boring confetti is confetti still? because confetti is just a mess to clean up, but tutti frutti is tasty and nice. I quite liked that :D So good to hear that you did not have cancer, really really nice :) Have a beautiful day!
Great to see you and your stitching, especially elements on cheese delivery come to life! I'm in Boston right now on vacation and enjoying the sites in town. We decided not to rent a car so I haven't been able to visit the LNSes in this area, but I had really hoped to go to Stitch New England. Have a great trip! So glad you have a good bill of health.
Thanks Debbie for your lovely comment. Stitch New England is getting lots of recommendations so I hope I can visit 🤞I’m looking forward to seeing Boston, is there anything you would particularly recommend seeing, as a not to be missed? Enjoy the rest of your holiday! Take care and happy stitching 🧵🧵🪡🪡
@@elliewelliestitcher If you are interested in US revolutionary history and like walking, I recommend following the Freedom Trail. They make it really easy to follow--there is literally a red line (sometimes bricks, sometimes a painted red line) to follow. It might be three miles or so to walk. All city streets with only a hill or two. We chose not to go in any of the museums (mainly because we started early to avoid the heat) so I can't recommend them one way or another. About halfway through you end up in an Italian neighborhood which makes a great break for a cup of coffee and a pastry. The aquarium was also fun but it was a bit expensive and super-crowded. School should be in session by the time you get here so that might reduce the crowds--we were fighting strollers all over the place. However, I always love to watch penguins and seals.
So glad to hear that you’ve got a clean bill of health Elaine. Loved stitching while I was watching you this afternoon. You’ve been making some lovely progress on your WIPs. Loved seeing your haul too. As soon as you said my name I was thinking what am I getting the blame for now 🤣🤣. It is a gorgeous book and you will love stitching Christmas Garden. I use Piecemaker needles too. Like you I’ve tried a few different ones but they are definitely my favourites. I got some The Viking Loom a few years ago. I think I bought 2 or 3 packs while I was there. The lady did say if I ever needed more just to give them a ring but they are online too. I’m starting Stitch All The Things in October but don’t know when in October! Happy stitching 😊
Hi Sally, I’m going to wait for you before I start stitch all the things. Yes I get my needles from Viking loom too, on their online store. Only place I’ve found piecemakers since lakeside never have them now. I won’t be starting Christmas garden yet but I just had to get it when you showed your fab finish. Take care and happy stitching 🧵🧵🪡🪡
So glad to hear it was just a scare for your health. I’m currently doing the vintage sampler from owl forest embroidery in variegated sulky thread and I’m loving it. Think I’m a convert for any other samplers I may do in the future xx
So glad to hear that your health checked out! Beautiful stitching again. I’ll try to send a picture of my tea dragon 🐉 to you. I’m not far along as I restarted her. (The fabric and I got into a small fight 😊)
Hi Elaine, i'm a new 🇬🇧 subscriber. Enjoyed your video and all your projects, your full coverage pieces are lovely. Hope to start aStanley dragon myself in near future, when I decide which one to choose, i like so many of them😃. Your framed sampler is so pretty, love the animals too. Happy stitching🌼🌺
Hi Jill, thanks so much for subscribing to my channel, so pleased you enjoyed my video 😊there are several of the dragons I would like to do as well!! I won’t start anymore until I finish the current one and that’s a fair while away yet!! Take care and have a great stitchy week 🪡🪡🧵🧵
Great video Elaine. First off, I’m so pleased you have a clean bill of health. Big relief for you. Lovely seeing all your WIPs - you get so much done! I have been following Creative Leigh for a long time and am also amazed she hasn’t reached the 1k mark yet so I was delighted you gave her a shout out. She is an extremely fast stitcher and her needles on fire showed how! Thanks again Elaine and happy stitching.
Hi Elaine… love love love your Cheese delivery ❤️❤️… I’m so happy for the results of your health, that is a brilliant news… see you soon Elaine, very soon… take care…. 👋❤️😘
Hi Elaine, so glad to hear all is well with your health, it must have been such a worry for you. You have great stitching done.. I dont know how you get all that done especially on the big pieces. And you read too... is it audiobooks? As for Brooms, I worked some more on it, but I seem to keep going wrong, so a lot of having to remember I'm a stitch off here, and a stitch off there 😂😂 Great haul! I have the latte mill hill, have done the cappuccino one, took me forever 😂 if I see you start it, I'll start too. Happy stitching Elaine 😊
Hi Alli, no I don’t listen to audio books, I prefer to read. Definitely when I finish the bee one I will start latte be great to do it with you 😊take care ❤️🧵🧵🪡🪡
Hi Elaine! I’m having such a hard time waiting to start Louisa! I’m so excited! Where will you start? I’m going for the fun stuff, so middle bottom, with the dog. I’m so glad you are joining! 🤗
Hi Kim, I’m going to start top left, be brave I thought and start that huge border!!! Looking forward to starting it now and seeing everyone’s progress. So pleased to do a Sal with you 😊take care 😊
Hi Elaine!! Glad to hear everything is well. Love catching up with you. Your Chris Dunn’s are coming along a treat! I just love the variety of all your projects! Happy stitching lovely! Xx
First and most important - I'm soooo glad that you've received a clean bill of health. Waiting in limbo is the hardest thing to deal with. Great news! I'm not very familiar with the New England area as far as LNS is concerned. But there is a FT group called Stitching Road Trip that is actually dedicated to researching and listing the currently open LNS shops - I believe they're listed by state. It's been a while since I've looked, but I know they are still quite an active group and if you can't find anything in the files, if you ask a question I'm sure someone will be happy to help you. That might give you some ideas. Beautiful projects!! I'll be starting my/your Harvest Dance in the beginning of Sept. All kitted and ready to go. What's the hashtag for that SAL again, pls? Thanks for sharing your work with us. Steph x
Hi Steph, thanks for the info on the fb group. The Sal is #fancyabroomridesal . Looking forward to seeing your progress. Take care and happy stitching 🧵🧵🪡🪡
Glad your cancer scare was just a scare. For your WIPGO line, I expect you'll treat yourself in the US - enjoy the trip. I've been meaning to ask you, what the pattern is for the throw over your chair? I've been looking for one like it!
Hi Sandie, it’s called lovers knot Afghan and it’s a free pattern on love crafts. Really easy to knit and the pattern is so repetitive it knits up fast. See you soon 😊
Thanks for the wee shoutout! Jude let me know so I’ve found you and followed. I agree - Piecemakers are the bomb needles. Short, long lasting, they don’t bend quickly and they have a slightly wider eye to help with threading and getting through higher count fabrics.
I am so happy to hear that your health scare is over! Amazing news! Your wips are coming along nicely. There are not enough hours in a day to stitch as much as we want. I wish I had an extra 10-20 hours a day! LOL Your haul wasn't too bad. Honestly, I was expecting more after what you said. Have a great three weeks. Take care!
Lovely video, Elaine. Goods news healthwise, yay. I like your book reviews. You got a lot of stitching done. And I like that your projects are so varied. Congrats Gina and Dani and your two fellow winners on winning the giveaways. Not sure how much I will get done on my dragon, but if it gets some love I'll send you an e-mail.
Great to hear your in good health, Elaine. I went through the same a couple of weeks ago. Also had a great experience with NHS; they were fab. Highlight was the consultant saying, “You’re not high risk for X, because you’re not overweight.” 🤣. Enjoy your holiday.
Hi Suzanne, glad your experience was a good one too ❤️the not knowing was the worst bit. I didn’t get such a lovely comment from my consultant 😂😂 take care and happy stitching 🪡🪡🧵🧵
Fab video as always 😁, 🥳glad you passed the vetting . So ……. I have the Christmas Witch from Kathy Barrick …. fancy a Sal, Oct 31st ish ? I believe Steve from The CraftyStitchers also has the chart, maybe we could persuade him to join us 🤷♀️ 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
Yes of course I will stitch the Christmas witch with you. Can we make it last longer than a week though 😂😂😂😂😂 ask Steve if he wants to start too. I will get mine kitted then😊
Hi Elaine! I´m so happy that you´re okay! I wish you a wonderful holiday in the states with lots of stiching shops. Did you see Lauren Flossabilitie (that word looks somehow wrong), she just finished a next Dunn ... and picked up two new .... arrrghhhh .... they are so great! Louisa Barney is out of stock unfortunaltely ---- unfortunaltely??? Maybe I should be glad. Linda from 144 hobbys just brought me to buy the sampler of Ester Blackwood 1853 (limited edition), do you know that sampler? It´s really dangerous to watch you all. 😂Happy stiching and have a great time! --- Ehm, what I wanted to say, I´m sorry for that needleminder, if it´s not unrusting steel a humid weather situation is sufficient for rusting. You can try vingar or lemon juice or white toothpast with fluorine (hope all words are correct). In Germany we have stain remover from Dr. Beckmann, this are little bottles that you can find in every shop that sells detergents. I´ll keep my fingers crossed that you are successfully removing the rust! 💪
Hi Regine, Louisa barny is a lovely sampler, she is a big one though!! I haven’t seen Ester Blackwood, I will check it out. The rust on my fabric won’t notice when I stitch over it, but we do get Dr Beckmann over here too, so I might try that for any future mishaps!! Take care and happy stitching 🪡🪡🧵
Oh Elaine, I got a tear of joy when you told us your WONDERFUL health news. Yay!! I'm so grateful with you & for you. ❤
Great pieces & progress also. Thank you for sharing time with us again. 😁

With the heart, you could use a chalk pencil like what is used in quilting. The chalk can be brushed away when you are finished.
Oh yes I never thought that, thanks for the tip 😊

All city streets with only a hill or two. We chose not to go in any of the museums (mainly because we started early to avoid the heat) so I can't recommend them one way or another. About halfway through you end up in an Italian neighborhood which makes a great break for a cup of coffee and a pastry.
The aquarium was also fun but it was a bit expensive and super-crowded. School should be in session by the time you get here so that might reduce the crowds--we were fighting strollers all over the place. However, I always love to watch penguins and seals.
So glad to hear that you’ve got a clean bill of health Elaine. Loved stitching while I was watching you this afternoon. You’ve been making some lovely progress on your WIPs. Loved seeing your haul too. As soon as you said my name I was thinking what am I getting the blame for now 🤣🤣. It is a gorgeous book and you will love stitching Christmas Garden. I use Piecemaker needles too. Like you I’ve tried a few different ones but they are definitely my favourites. I got some The Viking Loom a few years ago. I think I bought 2 or 3 packs while I was there. The lady did say if I ever needed more just to give them a ring but they are online too. I’m starting Stitch All The Things in October but don’t know when in October! Happy stitching 😊
Hi Sally, I’m going to wait for you before I start stitch all the things. Yes I get my needles from Viking loom too, on their online store. Only place I’ve found piecemakers since lakeside never have them now. I won’t be starting Christmas garden yet but I just had to get it when you showed your fab finish. Take care and happy stitching 🧵🧵🪡🪡
Great video Elaine .. glad you’re ok, great news x
Thank you 😊
So glad to hear it was just a scare for your health. I’m currently doing the vintage sampler from owl forest embroidery in variegated sulky thread and I’m loving it. Think I’m a convert for any other samplers I may do in the future xx
I will definitely use sulky again!! I love the vintage sampler it’s a great stitch! Take care and happy stitching 🧵🧵🪡🪡
So glad to hear that your health checked out! Beautiful stitching again. I’ll try to send a picture of my tea dragon 🐉 to you. I’m not far along as I restarted her. (The fabric and I got into a small fight 😊)
Hi Denise, oh yes send me a pic, that would be great 😊take care and happy stitching 🪡🪡🧵🧵
@@elliewelliestitcher I will! I'll put a couple more stitches in her first. :)
Hi Elaine, i'm a new 🇬🇧 subscriber. Enjoyed your video and all your projects, your full coverage pieces are lovely. Hope to start aStanley dragon myself in near future, when I decide which one to choose, i like so many of them😃. Your framed sampler is so pretty, love the animals too. Happy stitching🌼🌺
Hi Jill, thanks so much for subscribing to my channel, so pleased you enjoyed my video 😊there are several of the dragons I would like to do as well!! I won’t start anymore until I finish the current one and that’s a fair while away yet!! Take care and have a great stitchy week 🪡🪡🧵🧵
Great video Elaine. First off, I’m so pleased you have a clean bill of health. Big relief for you. Lovely seeing all your WIPs - you get so much done! I have been following Creative Leigh for a long time and am also amazed she hasn’t reached the 1k mark yet so I was delighted you gave her a shout out. She is an extremely fast stitcher and her needles on fire showed how! Thanks again Elaine and happy stitching.
Thanks for your kind words Susan 😊 take care and happy stitching 🪡🪡🧵🧵
Hi Elaine… love love love your Cheese delivery ❤️❤️… I’m so happy for the results of your health, that is a brilliant news… see you soon Elaine, very soon… take care…. 👋❤️😘
Thanks Isabelle and looking forward to seeing you soon!!! ❤️👋
Hi Elaine, so glad to hear all is well with your health, it must have been such a worry for you.
You have great stitching done.. I dont know how you get all that done especially on the big pieces. And you read too... is it audiobooks? As for Brooms, I worked some more on it, but I seem to keep going wrong, so a lot of having to remember I'm a stitch off here, and a stitch off there 😂😂 Great haul! I have the latte mill hill, have done the cappuccino one, took me forever 😂 if I see you start it, I'll start too. Happy stitching Elaine 😊
Hi Alli, no I don’t listen to audio books, I prefer to read. Definitely when I finish the bee one I will start latte be great to do it with you 😊take care ❤️🧵🧵🪡🪡
Hi Elaine! I’m having such a hard time waiting to start Louisa! I’m so excited! Where will you start? I’m going for the fun stuff, so middle bottom, with the dog. I’m so glad you are joining! 🤗
Hi Kim, I’m going to start top left, be brave I thought and start that huge border!!! Looking forward to starting it now and seeing everyone’s progress. So pleased to do a Sal with you 😊take care 😊
Hi Elaine!! Glad to hear everything is well. Love catching up with you. Your Chris Dunn’s are coming along a treat! I just love the variety of all your projects! Happy stitching lovely! Xx
Thanks Lauren ❤️ take care and happy stitching 🧵🧵🪡🪡❤️
First and most important - I'm soooo glad that you've received a clean bill of health. Waiting in limbo is the hardest thing to deal with. Great news! I'm not very familiar with the New England area as far as LNS is concerned. But there is a FT group called Stitching Road Trip that is actually dedicated to researching and listing the currently open LNS shops - I believe they're listed by state. It's been a while since I've looked, but I know they are still quite an active group and if you can't find anything in the files, if you ask a question I'm sure someone will be happy to help you. That might give you some ideas. Beautiful projects!! I'll be starting my/your Harvest Dance in the beginning of Sept. All kitted and ready to go. What's the hashtag for that SAL again, pls? Thanks for sharing your work with us. Steph x
Hi Steph, thanks for the info on the fb group. The Sal is #fancyabroomridesal . Looking forward to seeing your progress. Take care and happy stitching 🧵🧵🪡🪡
Glad your cancer scare was just a scare. For your WIPGO line, I expect you'll treat yourself in the US - enjoy the trip. I've been meaning to ask you, what the pattern is for the throw over your chair? I've been looking for one like it!
Hi Sandie, it’s called lovers knot Afghan and it’s a free pattern on love crafts. Really easy to knit and the pattern is so repetitive it knits up fast. See you soon 😊
Thanks for the wee shoutout! Jude let me know so I’ve found you and followed. I agree - Piecemakers are the bomb needles. Short, long lasting, they don’t bend quickly and they have a slightly wider eye to help with threading and getting through higher count fabrics.
Thanks Leigh for watching 😊 you deserved a shout out!! I only found your channel recently and really enjoy it. Take care and happy stitching 🪡🪡🧵🧵
I am so happy to hear that your health scare is over! Amazing news! Your wips are coming along nicely. There are not enough hours in a day to stitch as much as we want. I wish I had an extra 10-20 hours a day! LOL Your haul wasn't too bad. Honestly, I was expecting more after what you said. Have a great three weeks. Take care!
Hi Sue, thanks for your kind words 😊 glad you think my haul wasn’t to bad, I had more coming in the post 😂😂 take care and happy stitching 🧵🧵🪡
Lovely video, Elaine. Goods news healthwise, yay.
I like your book reviews.
You got a lot of stitching done. And I like that your projects are so varied.
Congrats Gina and Dani and your two fellow winners on winning the giveaways.
Not sure how much I will get done on my dragon, but if it gets some love I'll send you an e-mail.
Thanks Michaela ❤️I hope you are well getting plenty of stitching time!! Hopefully see you on a zoom soon. Take care and happy stitching 🧵🧵🪡🪡
@@elliewelliestitcher Yes, everything is fine. Looking forward to a zoom ❤
Great to hear your in good health, Elaine. I went through the same a couple of weeks ago. Also had a great experience with NHS; they were fab. Highlight was the consultant saying, “You’re not high risk for X, because you’re not overweight.” 🤣. Enjoy your holiday.
Hi Suzanne, glad your experience was a good one too ❤️the not knowing was the worst bit. I didn’t get such a lovely comment from my consultant 😂😂 take care and happy stitching 🪡🪡🧵🧵
Blue is your color!
Thanks 😊
Fab video as always 😁, 🥳glad you passed the vetting . So ……. I have the Christmas Witch from Kathy Barrick …. fancy a Sal, Oct 31st ish ? I believe Steve from The CraftyStitchers also has the chart, maybe we could persuade him to join us 🤷♀️
😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
Yes of course I will stitch the Christmas witch with you. Can we make it last longer than a week though 😂😂😂😂😂 ask Steve if he wants to start too. I will get mine kitted then😊
Hi Elaine! I´m so happy that you´re okay! I wish you a wonderful holiday in the states with lots of stiching shops. Did you see Lauren Flossabilitie (that word looks somehow wrong), she just finished a next Dunn ... and picked up two new .... arrrghhhh .... they are so great! Louisa Barney is out of stock unfortunaltely ---- unfortunaltely??? Maybe I should be glad. Linda from 144 hobbys just brought me to buy the sampler of Ester Blackwood 1853 (limited edition), do you know that sampler? It´s really dangerous to watch you all. 😂Happy stiching and have a great time! --- Ehm, what I wanted to say, I´m sorry for that needleminder, if it´s not unrusting steel a humid weather situation is sufficient for rusting. You can try vingar or lemon juice or white toothpast with fluorine (hope all words are correct). In Germany we have stain remover from Dr. Beckmann, this are little bottles that you can find in every shop that sells detergents. I´ll keep my fingers crossed that you are successfully removing the rust! 💪
Hi Regine, Louisa barny is a lovely sampler, she is a big one though!! I haven’t seen Ester Blackwood, I will check it out. The rust on my fabric won’t notice when I stitch over it, but we do get Dr Beckmann over here too, so I might try that for any future mishaps!! Take care and happy stitching 🪡🪡🧵
