    So good to see you back. I was a bit concerned at your absence.
    Very sad to hear of your bad experiences on your arrival here in Australia. BUT...so pleased you hung in there despite the negative stuff.

    I am that you are in a better place both physically and mentally. Welcome back, and I look forward to seeing you each week. I would love to hear the story of how you and Ben got together. How are the cats adjusting to your new home, I hope they are doing well.

    • @AnnabelleAndBensAntics

      The cats are doing ok. Ideally we will try and move somewhere a bit roomier for them at some point but for now there enjoying the very height up view from the windows

      You are absolutely an artist! Textile arts…Are arts! People get college degrees in textile art! You are a videographer and editor and a maker.
      You are an artist. Our inability to draw pictures does not mean that we aren't making art.

      10:24 this gave me chills. I am 55 years old and so I am at least old enough to be your mother if not your grandma. And I was in tears at this statement.

    Great to see you back. Good call on keeping the Hexagon/ Singer VS machine if you were to part with the collection, they are nice. It was inspiring to see what you were making on those oldr machines, so i am glad you are back.

    • @AnnabelleAndBensAntics
      @AnnabelleAndBensAntics  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Getting the sewing machine series back up and running is a big goal of mine for next year, especially as there's a lot that never got there own video. However as I will likely struggle unpacking them I've been picking up mini antique and vintage machines to try first!

    Don't under estimate the impact your living environment can have. Surprised you didn't go into a deep hole of depression with everything that was going on. Perth in summer with no air conditioning? I wouldn't be alive. Great to see you back!

      Oh it was a challenge and certainly having no hot showers for 6 weeks was the worst (I do love a good long hot shower lol) but I'm pretty happy with where we are now so hopefully we can just keep building it up!

    Yes, video on how you two met.
    Sorry for all the bumps in the road. Sounds quite hellish ! SO glad you've got your own space, have your dream job, and that Ben told you to ride through the rough patch.
    The sneak peak looks fantastic! Definitely interested in the wool processing & spinning. I have done drop spindle, it is SO challenging! Never used a spinning wheel, though !? Pretty sure "Ashford" is made in Australia? They make some cool wheels ! And looms, too !

      Yes they are and I managed to get one second hand! (Not the one in the video) Though I haven't had a chance to use it yet. My goal is to try and spin my own yarn to make fabric for some of my cosplays. It's a dream but I think we could do it!!!!

    Welcome back, Annabelle!
    HOW DID YOU AND BEN MEET?! With this kind of an introduction, I’d love to hear the story.
    I’m sorry that you and Ben had so many trials in the last year, but I’m glad that you made it through.
    Lastly, are you wearing t a Batwoman cosplay that we haven’t seen before? It looks good.

      @AnnabelleAndBensAntics  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I am! Though I have worn it in a few videos just as an around the house dress as it's very comfy!
      The one I'm wearing I brought but I want to make my own as well and do a side by side of them both :)

    I wonder if "you can't use the garden" was supposed to mean "don't mess with our plants or put your furniture out there" rather than "don't go into the garden at all"? Or, given they apparently wanted you to socialize with them in the garden, "only go into the garden With Us Also There"? People are weird and communication is complicated.

    • @AnnabelleAndBensAntics
      @AnnabelleAndBensAntics  18 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      I've got no idea but considering the house was small and most of what would be considered living room space was undercover outside it really didn't work well
      They said they wanted to keep the garden for themselves though so 🤷‍♀️
