Thank you Arica I am so glad I am not the only one that orders and forgets what it goes to! 😊
Hi Arica - I would stick with the mallow for the turkey because there are so many bright colours in it that your background should recede and let the turkey be the star. Yes, a video about the table would be fabulous.
Every now & then we get a Blue Moon...if you stitch your Cat on the neutral linen, you could stitch your moon anything between a light icy blue to a vibrant blue and it would still be fresh & funky. Thanks for the new episode!!!
Definitely do a video on your process of remolding the sewing box ! ❤
Beautiful stitches, specially Dutch Beauty, 👍👍👍
I love that autumn quaker pattern! It's going to be great. Your box is just gorgeous!❤ I wish I could be able to do one for me, but I'm terrible with such projects! 😂 Please, please film the process for the sewing table. Have fun doing it!😊
Hi Arica! I am using valdani threads on another Risewood manor, on 32 count. I didn,t like 3 ply so have been separating it to use 2. I use a separate floss card and do a few at a time to avoid single strays. Beautiful threads. Sorry I'll miss you at StitchNorth. Hope to meet you another time!
Loving the progress on your butternut road piece! That's one I want to stitch as well and I love how you're using it to learn as well. She will be stunning! You've got some great starts lined up!
Thank you! 😊 I have so much I want to stitch and just not enough time! Thanks for tuning in today 🍁🍂
Thank you Erica for sharing your projects. I am so inspired to stitch Autumn
Thank you for tuning in! I hope you enjoy your autumn stitching as much as I do! 🍁🍂🌰🧵🪡
I enjoyed watching your flosstube as always.
I usually don't like to give my 2 cents comment, but you asked for it.For your turkey, not the straw.You are right about the leaves blending in, but more that that I don't think he would pop.
I love your reconciliation piece and the fact that you are educating yourself.What a wonderful idea,you inspire me to learn even more about our first Nation peoples.I had friends from OKA Quebec and learned a lot especially during the Oka crisis.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts Donna, I value them :) regarding the indigenous culture, we have so much to learn, all it takes is willingness :)
Katy Strachen-ornamentations used Jacob’s book to do open hem on her latest sampler. It was spectacular!! Love to see a video how to on your sewing table and your little sewing case. It was very elegant!!!
Thank you for the inspiration! Always a joy to watch. Oh, its a Turkey wattle. Take care!
Yes that’s right! Thanks for tuning back in, happy stitching!
I've only used the three ply Valdani on 40 count for Brenda Gervais patterns. I had no problem separating it, and stitching with one strand. I did unravel the balls and put it on thread drops (sacrilege!!)
Lovely and memorable stitching! I love your sewing box and would enjoy a video about how you do it!
Sounds good! Thank you for tuning in and sharing your opinions :)
Wow....lots of things...lol...love it. Re turkey and the fabric, I love the straw. One of my favourite linens and you could always make the leaves more Canadian fall colours. Love that idea. I would love to see a video of your sewing table makeover if you have the time. Thanks for all Arica.
Thank you Hanna :) I’m dying to try the straw as I’ve never stitched on it and the color is just 😍😍😍. I love your idea of making the leaves more CDN colors…
Love all your stitching Erica it is beautiful. I would love to see a video on finishing your box the little one you showed looks lovely. I have just started to sew and I'm wondering if I could make something similar, although I don't think it would look as polished as yours!!
I vote Straw fabric for your turkey with a change of thread. 😉
Thanks for tuning in. I encourage you to make a box! It’s only cutting and pasting. I ended up hand sewing a small rectangle of wool for a needle pad which was secured by tying down 3 buttons but you could skip that part and just glue down a piece of fabric or felt :)
I've never stitched with Valdani, but I'd suggest getting a scrap of 32 count, from the same dyer, and trying it to see.
From the look of the floss, I'd say that separating the strands, into two strands, is going to be a pain - but you could test that as well.
Turkey Day is so good! ❤ Can’t wait yo see yours
Thank you!
Yes yes yes. Please make a video of your sewing table. If I say yes again will it count for four yes's? Lol. 😅
Haha YES! I love it :) thanks so much for tuning back in today. Happy stitching :)
I so enjoyed your video! I love the 3 ply on 28 count. I'm stitching Autumn Quaker as well as called for. My sister bought a 32 count and is separating them without a problem.
Oh good to know! Do you think you could use 3 on the 32?
@@FibersandFlossCanada I find it to be fairly bulky on 28 and I am someone who always prefers two over two on 36
Such a lovely and unique pieces of furniture, never sen anything like that? It would be really interesting to see a video on your process on the make over, please make one!
Thank you for sharing your opinion, it will be a fun project :)
👍🐨
Brilliant jewelry case makeover
Really sweet details 😍 Can I place an order with you now?!!!
Lots of lovely stitching
The quote you shared is fabulous, I’m writing that one down
I’d love to see a video on the sewing table remodel.
Thanks for sharing
Thank you! I had so much fun making it :) If you would like one, seriously, just message me at fibersandfloss@gmail.com as I would love to make more! Happy stitching!
I would like to see a video of your sewing table makeover! (I love your jewelry box makeover -- very nice!)
I am working on the Grump Susan QAL for EPP. I fell in love with the Clover Dome Threaded Needle Case for EPP. I have two...I thread all my needles and then I can just EPP away without stopping. :) I think the best thing about EPP is you can easily do it while you watch a movie. 📺
Thanks for the video! ❤❤❤
I’ve never heard of the clover dome - I had to google it, very interesting! Does it just wind up the thread and stores it while the needle is still on? Thanks for connecting with me today and I hope you get some good stitchy time in this weekend :)
@@FibersandFlossCanada Yes they wind around, and I have never had a threaded needle tangle on me. I thread all my needles at once and load them from slots 1-10 and then use them from slots 10-1 . So, when you use up the thread on a needle while sewing, all you have to do it pull a new threaded needle off the holder and keep on stitching. It works well for me.
I love the little case! I've been looking at these on Amazon and have yet to take the plunge. I'd absolutely love to see a video on your sewing table, it would be really inspiring :)
Thank you for sharing your thoughts :) I encourage you to make a case, it was easier than I anticipated and I was sad when it was done - I want to make more! Lol
@@FibersandFlossCanada It's like project bags - you can never have too many!!!
I think you should do the lighter color!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts :) Happy stitching!
A video would be great!
Thank you for sharing your opinion :)
