"I didn't have any square buttons, so I made some." That kept me chuckling all day.

[@user-ee2yi2bh8z]

I asked God to send me some inspiration and He surely answered me ❤

[@peggyrogers2562]

Love love love this!!!!!! I am a card maker and a quilter so I have lots of scraps and card stock. You are an amazing teacher. ❤❤❤❤❤

[@irenecasalino7406]

So pretty❣️. I am far from being a neat stitcher but I have learned so much from you and finally, in my 70s, are enjoying the process. Thank you!

[@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery]

It's most important that you enjoy it Irene!

[@ruthsewell1618]

I'm just discovering "slow stitch" - although I've been embroidering for years, I am really excited about this; was so happy to find you. I've been wanting to do special greeting cards and your tutorial got my juices flowing!! Thanks for your time -- Cheers from the USA

[@deborahgiles8214]

I love these! I need a hostess gift for next week and this will be just the thing. Your stitched pieces are just lovely.

[@judymarkel8029]

Your nails always look so pretty. This makes me look at fabric differently. Thank you for sharing your ideas

[@charleneroche9418]

Thanks! I really enjoy watching your talents at work. You are an inspiration.

[@user-mf7iy2jb7l]

Sarah, thank you for another wonderful video. Take care, and happy stitching.

[@Bunefoo401]

Loving all the ideas you share. New to slow stitching, even tho I’ve been embroidering and quilting for years and year. This is a very meditative craft.
Cheers, Collette

[@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery]

Thank you Collette! x

[@marthahuebner8916]

Thanks so much, Sarah! Beautiful cards!

[@rebeccat5738]

Thanks Sarah, really great idea, and so effective too. I think I am beginning to 'get' the slow stitch thing!

[@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery]

I shall keep working on you Rebecca...

[@susiebernal-weatherby45]

Beautiful work and a great idea.
Thank you for sharing your ideas and skills. They're very much appreciated. I'm fairly new to slow stitching.

[@janstetler9888]

What a great idea! Thanks for sharing 😊

[@ireneoakley6259]

Thank you Sarah I really love your tutorial, I am now really into slow stitching and make quite a few little stitched projects and wonder what to do with them so this is brilliant. The only thing is that I tend to knot when I finish off because I am afraid of the stitches unravelling. I have taught my self to embroider so watching you is helping me to learn.x

[@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery]

See my video on 20 things to make with slow stitching!

[@cindyadams376]

Thanks for such an inspirational video. Now I can do what I enjoy and turn it into something productive. Wonderful presentation!

[@emiliep8114]

Thank you Sarah for another great video! This is really pretty and it's giving me a lot of food for thoughts

[@LoverOfBlackCats]

Thanks so much Sarah, I really enjoyed this video! It’s Jan 13 and I’m going to start picking fabrics for next years Christmas cards. I really appreciate the time you took to make such a comprehensive and enjoyable video.

[@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery]

Thank you Lover of black cats!

[@dthomascful]

Thank you Smokeystearns! x

[@angelacornell8660]

I love a card and often use as a book mark 😊

[@annaharris2870]

Hi Sarah, I am watching you from Australia. For us, strawberries are perfect on top of pavlova or trifle at Christmas time. 🤓 They = Christmassy in my opinion. 🍓🍓🍓

[@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery]

Yum!

[@maryt2887]

Really enjoyed this video! Thank you for all the ideas!

[@christagouws2782]

Thank you Sarah❤❤❤

[@chantalbourrut410]

I love your videos. Thanks for sharing your expertise.

[@michelletopham6768]

Lovely video, thank you. How do you do such lovely little bows? Are they in one of your other videos? Many thanks Michelle 😊

[@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery]

I just tie a bow Michelle like a shoelace, I don't think I have a particular method! Fiddle with it to get it neat and laying how you want it...

[@artistgrly]

What a wonderful idea. Your cards look amazing! TFS. Hugs ❤

[@pilarcortes2859]

Wonderful dear Sarah, thanks

[@lourdesvergara-costas7300]

This is so much fun. Thank you.

[@lindak7499]

That was soooo fun with several ideas for me to try. Thank you

[@sheilabennett3289]

I love playing with fabric, and not too long ago I tried paper card making. I love, love, love your tutorial here for combining the two ❤❤❤.
Thank you for the wonderful ideas! I'll be neglecting my chores today to give this a go 😂.

[@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery]

The chores will still be there later so I wouldn't worry about that!

[@createandcraftwithchristine]

Lovely Sarah - I’m having fun doing a new slow stitch or crafting activity each day this advent and getting a lovely collection of Christmas decorations and other goodies. If you’d like to join in you’d be most welcome too. Cheers, Christine

[@kelliecorum5427]

How do you tie the bow so neatly? Beautiful work.☺

[@karenkaren9526]

I find Au Ver a Soie metallics MUCH easier to use than DMC.

[@akorn95]

[@pearlskylar]

Sarah, Where did you order the blank white cards with the front cut out (to display your stitching pieces)?

[@margaretbunce9407]

Hi Sarah, Have you got any handy tips and hints how to embroider on tolle. I have seen this and would love to do some embroidery but some guidance would be helpful. Margaret Bunce

[@junesylvia1]

Hi Sarah I recently found your channel and love your vlogs. I used to embroider many moons ago and would like to start again. Is it possible to buy starter kits for beginners. Could you possibly point me in the right direction or recommend any suppliers. Many thanks❣️

[@hiwalter3845]

Love your work,but for some unusual reason U.S. postal service charges almost double postage for square envelopes. Just a caution

[@jacquelinewhittaker4651]

Aperture cards are becoming harder and harder to source in the Manchester srea
