I appreciate your teaching style. You do not rush and do not speed up the video. Watching you doing repetitive stitches or techniques helps me remember the steps. I also like there are no music on your videos to distract us. Your calming voice, a silence background and watching you work and show how to do things several times, with the addition of birds signing on the background or your little kitty saying “hi” is absolutely lovely.
Thank you so much. I wasn't sure what people would expect. And I see such polished videos, where they've got proper equipment, but I just have to use what I have and do it the way I can. Thank you 😊💐
Hi Marion! Your filming style is natural and without pretense. Re music in between your instructions: I for one like the silence in between while you’re musing and thinking, it’s like having a friend stitching with you in a comfortable silence. I don’t mind silence. Thank you for the tip on the whipping stitch and the chain stitch! Your creative mind must be full of projects! Thank you for taking the time to share your talent with us. ❤ 🌷tess
Hi Marion, this video was very relaxing to watch. Don't change anything that you do. You're a natural. I love the black bird and the way you demonstrated how to make him. Thank you 🌷
Love listening and watching you. Silence is golden! Fascinating watching the blackbird emerge. You are producing wonderful tutorials. Thank you Marion😊❤️
Thank you Sheila. I'm happy I don't have to learn how to put the music over the video. Just another thing I don't need to find out about. I thought you all wouldn't like the quiet bits, but I have had lots of messages saying the quiet is not a problem, so that's great!
Your filming was perfect! Don’t be concerned about a few silent moments. I really enjoy your quiet gentle ways. Beautiful start to what will be an exquisite book. Hugs and blessings, 🇨🇦❤️🤗
It's amazing to watch you work, and see how quickly you make something complicated look so easy. You create such a cozy vibe that any silence is a comfortable one. Thank you for demonstrating and explaining the stitches you are using, and how many strands of thread. I'm stitching along while I embellish tiny crazy quilt squares made by my grandma years ago. I will be now be adding those stitches into my project. Thank you for sharing! 💕
That's brilliant Michalia! I'm over the moon with the feedback I've been getting for my videos. It's really lovely.... You'll have to tag me on Instagram so I can see what you've been up to. Unless I've got that wrong maybe.... I don't quite know what I'm doing on there yet. I just keep putting a photograph on and leaving it at that!
I like the silence too. As a person with hearing loss, I find music over voices just makes it difficult to hear. Ps. I’m learning so much. Thank you. ❤
I think your filming style is fine is natural and relaxing. I've been embroidering for quite a few years now, but in just a few videos, I've learned new techniques and have started looking at it differently. So, thank you for sharing your gift and insights. It's refreshing to see someone with a new voice sharing their unique vision.
Thank you so much for your encouraging message. I used to think that no-one would be interested in anything I did because they would already know how to do things. It's been lovely for me to realise that whatever stage people are at everybody can learn some new things. I know I learn every single day! Hopefully it's what keeps us fresh and interested in what's going on.
Your filming of your stitching is just great! Don't worry--we can see exactly what you are doing. I'm so excited to try the "padding" of my first bird--what a clever idea! You are an excellent teacher, Marion--thank you for sharing your talent with us all. PS--don't worry about the quiet spaces when you are working--it's actually really nice to simply watch your hands work and digest the information you've given us. Thank you!
Thank you so much for the great feedback. It's really helpful to know I'm going in the right direction. I thought people wouldn't like the quiet bits.... now I know not to worry about it...
Thank you so much for that feedback. When I started out in June I thought everyone would expect music and just to see my two ✋. But I didn't know how to do that so I just went with what I knew. 💐
@@marionsworld24 Listening to your thoughts and reason for the way you are making your artwork is very relaxing and enjoyable. I think you are making lovely videos.
I know many have music in the background but it can often take away from the subject and music is very personal. I for one love the fact you don't have music. I share a room with family and often have to watch without sound on, but your content is wonderful I can play on low. 👍🙂👍
Thanku Marion...u sure r a real gem...u r a joy to watch and then rewatch and stitch along with u x u truely are an inspiration and u make it so simple and easy so we can all sew and create these gorgeous fabric pictures and journals and much more x Also love your garden and your cosy craft/sewing room x Thanku and bless u Marion for all u give in these videos wth your talent x 😉😊🥰
Hi Marion, enjoyed your video very much during Monday morning stretching😅 Everything was well positioned and since there is too much background music and sound in our modern world anyway I deeply enjoy your videos without all that ❤ Stitchy greetings from Angela in Malaysia.
I've definitely got the message from all the comments! No music .... I'm pleased really as it was just one more thing I was going to have to learn how to do.
Good afternoon Mariron, you are doing a grand job with the filming. I agree with lots of your followers, the silence is just right . Just love watching you ❤ , and really look forward to the next update. Thank you for sharing kind regards Teresa xx
Wow, Marion, your structuring of the blackbird is amazing, and you nearly have me believing that I could perhaps do something in a similar vein, but I am going to wait until the next episode before I commit, it might get harder .🙃 Love what you show, I have been binge-watching your videos to catch up. Love that there is no music, silence is golden when concentrating.
Of course you can do it Vicki! Just take it slowly if it isn't something you've tried before. But each stage leads nicely into the next. I'm pleased you've been enjoying my little videos. I am getting better at filming them I think.
You are filming just right and explaining everything very well. Can't wait to try some of your techniques. I look forward to your videos, they are so relaxing to watch, and I am learning so many new things. Thank you.
New to watching you and enjoying every minute. Please don’t change I love the peace and quiet feel and the natural sounds such as scissors cutting the taffeta. Pure joy. X
Wow!!!! What an amazing tutorial. That was awesome!! Honestly if I tried that it would be a black blob. I was totally fascinated by the whole process and didn’t think the video was too long at all. I’ll be looking forward to the next instalment! 😁🥰 Can’t wait for whatever you have planned next. ❤❤❤
Such a compliment! My daughter and her friends got obsessed with Bob Ross whilst they were at university. They used to quote his sayings...'Happy little trees!'
I know how easy it is to get sidetracked by a new project 😂. I'm used to padding 3D in other embroidery styles but my shapes never look realistic so quickly! I realised you're left-handed but I'm more interested in your thought process and ideas. I've got stitch books I can access when I come to the embroidered part. I'm happy to enjoy feeling I'm stitching along with you even if I have to watch the longer videos in parts sometimes. That said who needs music even if you do have to stop talking now and then when you come to tricky bits? Your calming but instructive videos are such a pleasure to watch. Thanks Marion.
Thank you Jean. I'm pleased you feel you can get something out of my videos. I realise that people are at all different levels. Some of us have stitched away for years, but then there are people for whom embroidery and stitching is a relatively new thing. I've been trying to make sure I don't assume everyone knows what to do.
This was delightful to watch and see the tree branch and bird take shape! New to your channel I found you by your studio tour. I am in love with your server cover. ❤❤
Hello Marion, I just this morning found you by accident while searching for information on Kantha quilts and Kawandi quilts. I subscribed to your delightful channel and am looking forward to spending a great deal of time watching your past and future videos. Lindy in northern Michigan, USA.
Well hello Lindy.. Welcome to my channel. I'm so happy you've found me. I'm spending this morning catching up on replying to comments and yours just popped in! I absolutely loved stitching all the birds from the garden. I'm actually working on getting them all finished at the moment, so expect another bird video within the next couple of weeks or so. :)
So excited to watch all the videos on the bird book.🎉 Just finished the flower book and i just loved it. You're really a busy bee...busy with so many projects and they all come together and looking amazing. The little titbits in-between your stitching is so refreshing...garden...jam making...rock cakes...icecream etc..etc...😂❤
Hi Marion, the Blackbird is an beauty, I love birds. I learn so much, 3 D effect and the padding. Thank you for sharing, vriendelijke groeten van Roos uit Netherland. 🌹
Another great video Marion. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and enthusiasm. You made me chuckle when you said something new was "in your brain now and you can't get it out", I know how that is 😂
It's really bad Linda.... I get so that the new idea is all consuming and I just have to do it! That's all part of the fun of crafting in all of its' guises though, in whatever medium you use.
Hi again, Marion from a very hot Texas at the moment! My roses and garden are struggling at the moment so it feels so cool when I see your beautiful garden. I was blessed to have spent a couple of weeks in the UK some years ago, and loved the cooler weather. Marion, as I said before, you’re so extremely talented and creative. I admire you for being brave and pushing through the challenges of technology. I was a glass artist/teacher until recently, and I was quite put off by the technical aspects of putting tutorials on TH-cam! Good for you that you’re so courageous! I love your tutorials, but even more I think we all love you and your lovely, quiet personality. ♥️.Keep going. We are all cheering for you! Donna Sarafis, Dancing Light Fused Glass Fayetteville, Texas
Oh my goodness Donna. What a wonderful message to read from you. Thank you so much for the encouragement! My channel came about almost by accident and has really taken me by surprise. The technical parts of filming and editing have been the hardest for me to get a grip of. Give me something practical to learn and I'm off and running! But computers....I'm in the age group that just doesn't naturally do these things, especially when my former work was totally outdoors. My husband always dealt with the invoices and the emails etc. It's been a big learning curve!
I am so sorry for the loss of your husband. It must really push you into many new areas including technology My husband and I are 76, and we both struggle with computers and any technology although he is a retired teacher. I have rediscovered textiles and I am learning so much. I love color and nature! I am taking my designs for glass and reinventing them in textile art. Some will be like small quilt art, some in fabric books or journals, and some in framed pieces. I love designing my own patterns or just freely designing on the go. That’s why I love your work so much because we do seem to have common ground in that way. I don’t have the experience and knowledge you have though. So I am looking forward to learning so much from you! ♥️
love it, thanks for sharing. I love your video's. I feel when they are long, I learn so much from you. I'm sad your going to make them shorter. I'm still struggling with just the background of my page. Well, look forward to your next video.
@@marionsworld24 I admire your dedication to keeping busy and your skills in sewing, it's a blessing that your mom taught you. I had interests but since they've gone, at 73 it's tough to get into things, my hands don't work so well. Enjoy your laid back manner... Yvonne in Michigan ☺️
Thanks so much for your video. I enjoyed listening to you while I stitched on a piece I'm making and I hope you don't resort to using music. As I chatted I was able to look up at my laptop screen and see what you were doing and then go back to my stitching. Of course, I'm just one viewer and others might like the music. I happened across your channel sometime over the past couple of days. Again, thanks for streaming. I live in the U.S. (State of Minnesota). Look forward to your next installment.
Thank you for your lovely message Darla. No music it is... I've had so many messages saying the same thing. I just thought that would be what people wanted, instead of me just being quiet. Shows you how much I know about it! I'm very much a beginner with the whole filming thing and having a channel. It's been a steep learning curve that's for sure!
That's great Denise. You just have to start somewhere and then keep moving forward. I hardly ever unpick anything. Even if there's a mistake there's always something else you can do. Also sometimes the mistakes turn out to be better than the original plan! That happens to me a lot....
It is definitely stumpwork. The butterfly on the front of my first book is quite traditional in the way it was made. The blackbird will become more 3D as he progresses. Sometimes people think these techniques are too difficult to do. But it is still basically stitchwork. I've just tried to break it down to simple steps. I'm pleased you thought it was good. Thank you.
Hi, Marion, I just found your channel😊 You are motivating a lot of us☺️ I watched your making fabric for the books, and order the supplies☺️☺️ You probably need an Amazon store and list your items 😬 Can you tell me which thread brand that you are ? I like the variegated ones especially 🤗 Keep on making these great helpful videos😊
I have all sorts. Mostly DMC and anchor for stranded thread. But there are other brands too as a lot of it is thrifted. I love using perle cotton. I buy that from Steph Francis as she has lovely variegated colours. And some of the fine perle threads are called Danish flower threads. They're really difficult to find now because they aren't made anymore.
Hello Marion. Just to say there doesn't need to be any music inserted. I listen to your vlogs while I'm stitching so it's like we're all in the same room nattering. I would say perhaps an LED ring light on your work might help your viewers see more of your hand stitching more clearly. But I'm loving your channel. You're my most favourite person to be with. Thank you for your time and inspiration ❤
Thank you for the lovely message Jackie. I do now use the light of my needlework stand to light things up. It's been a big learning curve as I hadn't filmed anything before starting my channel in June... I'm pleased you're enjoying watching ☺️
Love your videos exactly the way they are. I personally hope you dont add music. Your silences are natural and give me time to absorb your instructions.
No music.... everyone has been saying the same. I just though that would be what everyone would expect. I've seen it on some other channels. But I'll just stay as I am...
Thank you for showing how you stitch, love how you stitch left handed & cut with your right hand, Could see ok on book cover video having the white sheet made it hard for you to stitch, I like your videos without music.
Well I only cut right handed because I haven't got left handed embroidery scissors... I do have left handed fabric scissors though, so when I'm cutting out for clothes I do cut left handed. I've had a better idea for the white sheet actually. I think it was a bother because it was loose. I'm going to cover the piece of thick felt and make it into a proper surface. That should be better all round. Also ...no music it is...
Yes I like your filming style - I hate it when there is repetitive music - it takes away from your concentration - I myself have some painted pictures of birds on fabric and have taken one out of its frame and I'm in the process of adding thread and beads to it - don't know how it will turn out - but watching your video has spurred me on. Thank You😊😊
Hi, Marion. Please, no music. Because you sew left-handed, it’s real easy for me to see your work. What a plus for your videos! You said you haven’t watched much embroidery. Try Diana Vingert. She’s left-handed and doesn’t add music. Look for a video where she stitches giant florals. I love what you’ve done! You explain very well. I’d never seen a whipped chain stitch before. It looks like an easy way to get a 3-D effect. Do you have a piece of the Victorian watered silk with original stitching? I assume it was hand-stitched and would love to see it. I’m loving the bird. 💜
No music Mara! I've had so many comments about it. I had no idea really because I haven't watched other peoples till now. I'm definitely going to look her up.... especially if she's a leftie like me! I got the whole skirt in quite a bad state. The fabric is very fragile in parts, but also very beautiful. It is machined but had hand stitched buttons and closures. I used the frill from the bottom for the raven wings. If there is time I'll show it on the next video.
@@marionsworld24 That’s great news about the music. Some people like it, but those might be younger people. It’s amazing how many seventy-something-year-olds watch crafting videos (sewing, paper). I’m 71. 😁
Thank you for your message Dot. Originally I thought I'd have to learn how to put music on. But the overwhelming messages I received said the silence was fine ☺️ So it saved me having to find out how to do it 😂

There's always more projects Tess! Thank you for the positive feedback though. I really appreciate it.
So helpful your video's are. I love the natural way with which you keep it. I enjoy the quietness and pace ...so informative, Marion.
Big thank you!
Thank you for the positive feedback. I really appreciate it 💐
Hi Marion, this video was very relaxing to watch. Don't change anything that you do. You're a natural. I love the black bird and the way you demonstrated how to make him. Thank you 🌷

That’s why I love your work so much because we do seem to have common ground in that way. I don’t have the experience and knowledge you have though. So I am looking forward to learning so much from you! ♥️
I love your channel, I learn so much. Ty so much.
Brilliant! Thank you..
love it, thanks for sharing. I love your video's. I feel when they are long, I learn so much from you. I'm sad your going to make them shorter. I'm still struggling with just the background of my page. Well, look forward to your next video.
❤ TFS
Hey Marion 🌟 surprised 🙀 your doing a book, with the other 5 projects you lined up,! Your a busy 🐝 bee, enjoy your quiet manner🙂🕊️
Thank you for the compliment...
There's always lots of things going on here. I've got about three more ideas that I'm trying to find time for too!
@@marionsworld24 I admire your dedication to keeping busy and your skills in sewing, it's a blessing that your mom taught you. I had interests but since they've gone, at 73 it's tough to get into things, my hands don't work so well. Enjoy your laid back manner... Yvonne in Michigan ☺️
Thanks so much for your video. I enjoyed listening to you while I stitched on a piece I'm making and I hope you don't resort to using music. As I chatted I was able to look up at my laptop screen and see what you were doing and then go back to my stitching. Of course, I'm just one viewer and others might like the music. I happened across your channel sometime over the past couple of days. Again, thanks for streaming. I live in the U.S. (State of Minnesota). Look forward to your next installment.
Thank you for your lovely message Darla. No music it is... I've had so many messages saying the same thing. I just thought that would be what people wanted, instead of me just being quiet. Shows you how much I know about it! I'm very much a beginner with the whole filming thing and having a channel. It's been a steep learning curve that's for sure!
Lovely ! Thank you so much !!!
I'm pleased you likes what I did Susan. Thank you.
Oh wow, i love this. I am a newbie and learnt so much. Thank you.
That's great Denise. You just have to start somewhere and then keep moving forward. I hardly ever unpick anything. Even if there's a mistake there's always something else you can do. Also sometimes the mistakes turn out to be better than the original plan! That happens to me a lot....
I was taught that what your doing is called stumpwork embroidery. Its really beautiful and a great tutorial.
It is definitely stumpwork. The butterfly on the front of my first book is quite traditional in the way it was made. The blackbird will become more 3D as he progresses. Sometimes people think these techniques are too difficult to do. But it is still basically stitchwork. I've just tried to break it down to simple steps. I'm pleased you thought it was good. Thank you.
Hi, Marion, I just found your channel😊 You are motivating a lot of us☺️ I watched your making fabric for the books, and order the supplies☺️☺️ You probably need an Amazon store and list your items 😬 Can you tell me which thread brand that you are ? I like the variegated ones especially 🤗 Keep on making these great helpful videos😊
I have all sorts. Mostly DMC and anchor for stranded thread. But there are other brands too as a lot of it is thrifted. I love using perle cotton. I buy that from Steph Francis as she has lovely variegated colours. And some of the fine perle threads are called Danish flower threads. They're really difficult to find now because they aren't made anymore.
Hello Marion. Just to say there doesn't need to be any music inserted. I listen to your vlogs while I'm stitching so it's like we're all in the same room nattering. I would say perhaps an LED ring light on your work might help your viewers see more of your hand stitching more clearly. But I'm loving your channel. You're my most favourite person to be with. Thank you for your time and inspiration ❤
Thank you for the lovely message Jackie.
I do now use the light of my needlework stand to light things up. It's been a big learning curve as I hadn't filmed anything before starting my channel in June...
I'm pleased you're enjoying watching ☺️
Love your videos exactly the way they are. I personally hope you dont add music. Your silences are natural and give me time to absorb your instructions.
No music.... everyone has been saying the same. I just though that would be what everyone would expect. I've seen it on some other channels. But I'll just stay as I am...
@@marionsworld24 that's great.
Thank you for showing how you stitch, love how you stitch left handed & cut with your right hand, Could see ok on book cover video having the white sheet made it hard for you to stitch, I like your videos without music.
Well I only cut right handed because I haven't got left handed embroidery scissors... I do have left handed fabric scissors though, so when I'm cutting out for clothes I do cut left handed.
I've had a better idea for the white sheet actually. I think it was a bother because it was loose. I'm going to cover the piece of thick felt and make it into a proper surface. That should be better all round. Also ...no music it is...
Beautiful
I like the stitching with your voice interspersed with silences, fine by me too😀
Brilliant thank you..
i think your doing great! thank you.
Thank you too...
Just found your channel. Love your stitching but please don't spoil it with music!!! Best wishes and happy stitching from Herefordshire.
Hello Rachel. No music! I'm pleased you found your way to my channel. Thank you for your message...
Yes I like your filming style - I hate it when there is repetitive music - it takes away from your concentration - I myself have some painted pictures of birds on fabric and have taken one out of its frame and I'm in the process of adding thread and beads to it - don't know how it will turn out - but watching your video has spurred me on. Thank You😊😊
That sounds lovely Joyce. I hope you can share your progress too.
Hi, Marion. Please, no music. Because you sew left-handed, it’s real easy for me to see your work. What a plus for your videos! You said you haven’t watched much embroidery. Try Diana Vingert. She’s left-handed and doesn’t add music. Look for a video where she stitches giant florals. I love what you’ve done! You explain very well. I’d never seen a whipped chain stitch before. It looks like an easy way to get a 3-D effect. Do you have a piece of the Victorian watered silk with original stitching? I assume it was hand-stitched and would love to see it. I’m loving the bird. 💜
No music Mara! I've had so many comments about it. I had no idea really because I haven't watched other peoples till now. I'm definitely going to look her up.... especially if she's a leftie like me!
I got the whole skirt in quite a bad state. The fabric is very fragile in parts, but also very beautiful. It is machined but had hand stitched buttons and closures. I used the frill from the bottom for the raven wings. If there is time I'll show it on the next video.
@@marionsworld24 That’s great news about the music. Some people like it, but those might be younger people. It’s amazing how many seventy-something-year-olds watch crafting videos (sewing, paper). I’m 71. 😁
Your video is great and so is the silence...
Thank you for your message Dot. Originally I thought I'd have to learn how to put music on. But the overwhelming messages I received said the silence was fine ☺️
So it saved me having to find out how to do it 😂
What patience☺️nice idea and video. TH-cam waynesville NC USA 🇺🇸 veteran
No music please, what you do is very relaxing to watch.
Hello what books do you use for birds and flowers please
I'm using my Readers Digest Books of British Birds and Wild Flowers.
No need for music 😊
👍
please no music, better to hear you talking
