    Great video and like you, I am mourning our Queen. She truly was an amazing lady. Well done on your ffo’s. Love your hair too - really suits you. Hope you enjoy your stitchy catch up. Thanks for sharing everything. Happy stitching.

      Hi Susan thanks for watching. I know right I know she was elderly but she had been the queen my whole life and I can’t quite get over she is gone. It seems weird to say King Charles doesn’t it. Anyway thanks for liking my hair and happy stitching 🧵🧵🪡🪡

    Hi Elaine! Your drum finish looks terrific! I’ve been a bit unsure how much I will enjoy the border on Louisa, so I loved hearing you enjoyed it! I’m so glad you joined our SAL. 💕

    Always enjoy your chatty updates. Your finished and projects all look amazing!
    I'm glad to hear your lock/door incident turned out okay
    I love your book updates; I've added the keeper of happy ends to my Kindle, it sounds like a nice read as I generally grab for an easy read with a happy ending as I mostly read when I'm putting the baby down for a nap or just before I am going to bed myself.
    Thanks for sharing your book of days and your update. I wish you happy stitching

    Hi Elaine, love your finishes. Your drum is gorgeous! I think you did a great job. I never seem to be able to get mine that straight. Lovely progress on your WIPs. The blue fabric is absolutely perfect. Love the new fabric that you got. I can’t get my head round the fact that our Queen is no longer here. It all feels so strange right now. Take care. Happy stitching 😊

      Hi Sally, I know right, I still can’t believe she is gone. She has been our queen for our entire lives and now she is gone, it feels very strange. My drum has a few issues but overall I’m happy!! Take care and happy stitching 🧵🧵🪡🪡❤️

    Great video and stitching as always! So glad your lock-out got resolved. Love the House of the Dragon (actually more than GOT) but having trouble getting into the Rings of Power (and I'm a Tolkien fanatic). So sorry for the loss of the Queen. She was an exceptional woman.

    I received your lovely package of the 31 pattern the other day- it really cheered me up on a tough week! Thank you again for the stitch kindness:)

    Hi Elly, i am sorry for your lost of your Queen. It was a amazing woman. I am from the Netherlands but also here is it big news. I hope for your country there are not so much changes. It was nice to see your progress again. I like your hair with the red in it. See you next time and happy stitching.

    Nice to see you again Elaine! Loved your finishes and your wips are coming along nicely! We feel the loss of our head of state here in Canada as the U.K. is feeling the loss of your Queen. She was well loved and respected here. Love your hair! It suits you so well! Have a great three weeks! Take care!

      I was stunned when I heard. Since I was little I've been told every year that my birthday is the same as Queen Elizabeth II. She's one of those people you think will be with us forever. I am very sad that forever ended. She was an amazing woman who led one amazing life.

    Hi Elaine.. Can't believe you've finished Brooms! I'm not finished, got about a 3rd left.. my stitching bug has gone again 😥 All your finishes are wonderful, well done on the drum 👏👏
    In also very sad about the Queens passing, it's very surreal. 😥
    P.s. love the new hair colour, really suits you 😊

    • @elliewelliestitcher
      @elliewelliestitcher  2 года назад

      Hi Alli, ohhh I was sure you would have finished brooms by now, sorry to hear you don’t feel like stitching, hopefully you will get the bug back soon. Glad you like my hair!! It’s my autumn look 😊 I know I can’t get over the Wueen, I think it was the suddenness of it all. Take care 🧡🧵🧵🪡🪡

    Three finishes😝 Go girl. 🎉How about some pear shape drop beads on your beautiful drum? Dark green might be a good colour for your new start border? I've been stitching on a monochrome chart of the dear Queen by Stitchy Jules. Queen Elizabeth gave us her life. Personally think she was a very hard worker. Have a wonderful weekend with all the girls. I'm done in Guildford next week with Robyn, so I'm being very brave lol. Stay safe🤗. ps I haven't forgotten the parcel

    • @elliewelliestitcher
      @elliewelliestitcher  2 года назад

      Hi Ange, have a lovely time with Robyn. Don’t worry about your chart, give it me at next retreat if you still haven’t changed your mind!! I can’t even begin to describe how much respect I had for the queen. Take care my friend ❤️🧵🧵🪡🪡

    Lovely projects as always! Thanks for sharing.... Your Reflets de Soie piece is so pretty - as you are so undecided about the black border maybe you should take out what you’ve done now? Just thinking the longer you leave it in, the dark thread would be more likely to leave residual fluff & stretch the holes? Happy stitching Lesley

    • @elliewelliestitcher

    I think the black border is taking away the softness of the flower border. It's a beautiful piece and your fabric is so pretty. I should say though, I don't use black very often. It seems too stark. Sending condolences for the Queen. She was a very great lady. So sorry for your country's loss. 💜

    • @elliewelliestitcher
      @elliewelliestitcher  2 года назад

      Hi Linda, I’m with you on that black border, I will likely frog it out as I think it’s too harsh as well. Very sad times with the loss of the Queen 😢 take care and happy stitching 🧵🧵🪡🪡

    Hi Elaine! So sorry you had your lock incident but so glad a neighbor helped you out so you didn't have to deal with the deluge of rain. Congrats on 3 FFOs. I like the frame you chose for Snail House. Your drum of Klara Hansen looks wonderful! Your Blackberry Dragon is coming along nicely. Nice progress on both that and Cheese Delivery! Whoever came up with the tailor chalk idea for your freehand heart is brilliant. So glad you got your huge spoon fully stitched. It is so lovely. I look forward to see your progress on it every time you show it. Sweater Weather is so cute! You made good progress on it as well. Your fingers have been extremely busy with your stitching and finishing. I am not sure if I have Sulky white but I will have to remember that for future white stitching. I am working on a monochrome piece called Savior which I am stitching in a Threadworx floss and not really liking their cotton floss. I like the fabric you chose for your Bella Filipina pattern and think it will look really great on there. I bet you are getting excited for your trip by now. I am doing quite a bit of stitching right now, taking advantage of the time that I don't have Walter and cannot do a lot of cleaning etc. although it is driving me slightly crazy to barely be able to sweep my floor every other day instead of every day (Texas has so much dust and pollen!!!) and not being able to mop my floor is really, really bugging me. Go back to the orthopedic doc on the 27th so hopefully will get the 10 pound lifting limit removed. Hope you have a wonderful time at your catch up retreat. Happy stitching.

    Loving the hair Ellie! Your drum would look good with a cord made from the same floss. Teresa showed some that she'd made using a tutorial by Vonna. Using tailor's chalk for the heart on Morris Dancer is a good idea, but whynot draw a heart template to draw round? Looking forward to seeing Louisa Barney next weekend

    Hi Elaine, have fun next week, wish I was there 😪 but we are away in New Forest, will see you in March. I cant believe how upset I am about HM The Queen, my son is an Officer Cadet and he is just floored by it, so much has to change for them 😪 but I'm sure King Charles (how strange to say that) will do a fabulous job.
    Congratulations on your finishes 🎉🎉 looking forward hearing all about the stitching chat ! xx

    Really enjoyed your update Elaine and Happy Dance 💃 💃💃💃 and Congratulations 👏 on 3 FFOs that are beautifully finished. The drum is perfect 👌 and maybe you could make some cording like Teresa Little Stitcher did for her flat board finishing, out of floss, that matches your stitching or close to it,maybe a little darker 🤔...just a thought. You made Amazing progress this Fortnight 👏 and love your haul and new start. I think the sampler might look better without the black border...had to rewind video because I didn't even notice it on the cover photo. I would probably wait until the end to decide,like your doing. The US is very upset about The Queen Passing...im 62 years old and she's the only Queen I've ever known of. Its very very sad 😥 news and your right she was the essence of a true lady. Hope you enjoy your stitchy weekend 😊 and maybe get some stitching done too...love your blue sky fabric for the witch ,and your right, she's not a scarey witch. Until next time...stay safe and enjoy whatever your stitching 😊 and of course I watch your videos until the very end,love hearing your fur babys barking ❤ later Elaine
