    One of the best things I picked up from you is using a patterned base cloth. (now have a stash of checked table cloths). Also I sometimes wrap a colonial knot 2or 3 times, no one ever told me I couldn't!1

    • @jenniferclouston7545
      @jenniferclouston7545  4 месяца назад

      Patterned backgrounds are so good! You can definitely add more wraps on a colonial knot - I just choose not to!

    I love crows too. They’re the mayors of bird town, strutting their stuff. They chase predators away. When I hear them cawing out here, they’re usually on the job chasing away cats or birds of prey. When we have bread to spare, I make little peanut butter sandwiches for them. I also love watching you stitch. Those ribbon leave are especially cool. Thanks!

      @jenniferclouston7545  2 месяца назад

      Hi Sandy, I very very very seldom use stranded cotton. And if I do, I use just one strand to create texture. Perle 8 is my favorite thread. It is a twisted thread which cannot be separated. Hope this helps.

      My RUclips channel is what I feel like doing on the day. It was never my goal to teach - simply to stitch. Perhaps, there are other channels that will give you of what you are after.
      Happy stitching!

    Thank you Jennifer for your video. It is so nice to see these stitches from your book come to life. I keep it with me when I stitch. What I love is you don't just say here is a book of how to do stitches but you give us these wonderful combinations to get us started on our creative journey. I sat in my friends garden stitching (she does not stitch) with your little caddy, set out my teeny pin cushion, 3 needles, ribbon all ironed and off I went. The chit chat ended up all about the caddy and why 3 needles. When I go back next week I will be taking some supplies as I think there is a convert coming into the fold she was fascinated with your book.
