So funny in the video you mentioned you were off to watch my premiere replay and stitch while I’m here watching you and stitching. Love this second scrap project too. Cheers, Christine 💙
hehe I love when that happens, I'm still blown away by how it can feel like we're in each other's craft room when you're on the other side of the world from me, love that we can do that and totally for free, the internet is a wonder to me! :)
“So prefer the hand sticking ……love the philosophy of using ALL….for me the excitement is building in this series….loving Your Community of Grace….Peace to All
Ah thank you so much Sherry, yes it's so important to me not to waste any and this community is a huge part of my life now, I've definitely found my tribe as they say. I hope you will enjoy the rest of this little series and the end result - three videos to go :)
I plan to start some soon. Hand sewing is very therapeutic for me, so this is a great idea to use up some of those beautiful scraps ive been hanging onto for years. Thank u🥰
Thank you Annie for the video. I love these little bells ,what a great idea. The rich red really sets it off beautifully. Very festive in that colour. They remind me of those paper things we use to make at school with silly sayings in them.
Very cute little bells. Think I will make a few this morning at class well if I am not needed. lol 😜 aww must go back and watch the other one, himm how did I miss this one?
Thank you Maggie, I'm really glad you like them - they work better if at least one of the layers is slightly stiffer I think, the ones where they were both silk or soft cotton are a bit floppy, though still pretty I think. I reckon you could do strings of just the bells and it would look lovely :)
Thanks for your question - the answer is that there wasn't a set size, it depended on what scraps I had, but yes, 5" would work really well. If in doubt, just take a piece of scrap and fold it as demonstrated to audition it and you'll be able to tell if it will work. I wouldn't go much smaller thann 4 as it woudl get fiddly. Hope that helps :)
It's Shisha, if you type in to the YT search box "shisha work" or "shisha embroidery" you'll get loads of results, I would recommend Sarah Homfray for nice clear tutorials on it :) ps it's stitched on, no glue involved.
Hi Jacquie, sorry I'm so behind answering comments that I didn't pick this up at the time. They do send all over the world, but you can't put an order through in the normal way, you have to email them (click on the Contacts tab on their website), tell them what you want and they'll quote you for postage. If you try to put an order through, the automated system will refuse you, but if you email theym, they're very helpful and friendly. Hope that helps :)

Lovely 👍🙏
Thank you! Cheers! :)
Fabulous, I love the ones with the decorated edges, they show up so well with the contrasting threads.

Great video! Love this series!

Ding,Dong !
hehe I nearly put that in my thumbnail, but wasn't sure everyone would get it! Thanks very much :)
I guess I missed what size are the squares, but I'm guessing about 5" square? Thanks much!

Are you saying "Shi Shi mirrors"? How do they stay on the fabric? Glue?
It's Shisha, if you type in to the YT search box "shisha work" or "shisha embroidery" you'll get loads of results, I would recommend Sarah Homfray for nice clear tutorials on it :) ps it's stitched on, no glue involved.
I spent a lovely half hour on the Bazaar page but they don't send to where I live

I have taken PP's advice and have changed my user name on YT. Just checking to see if it has worked.
It worked!! :) xo
