 Hello Friends, how are you doing? I hope that wherever you are in the world that you are doing ok during the difficult times we have been facing. In the UK we are in our third lockdown and I have found this Winter lockdown to be difficult if I am honest. But I have tried to stay as positive as I can and sewing has really helped me to do that. I have just let myself make whatever I feel like and that has been really freeing and enjoyable.  Over the last 12 months, I have really learnt how important sewing is to my mental health and well-being. If I haven't managed to fit a bit of stitching into my day, I don't feel as calm, relaxed and happy. Stitching allows me to forget about any worries and gives me something positive to focus on. This week on my Youtube channel, I shared a video about the projects I have been working on during this lockdown and what it is about these projects in particular, that is helping me to cope with lockdown. You can find the video below. I have also linked a video below that I made in September, which describes how slow stitching helps me deal with stress and anxiety. I hope you enjoy watching these videos, thank you so much and take good care of yourself.

I love the way the embroidery appears like a kaleidoscope forming a single image, so clever!

Hi Laura, thank you so much for leaving such a lovely comment about my embroidery and my shop, so kind of you to support me, thank you. Liberty fabrics are just so lovely aren’t they. If you want more of the pink and blue (I think I know which print you mean, it’s called swirling petals) I have a bit more of that, so you can always send me an email about it. Thank you, enjoy your stitching time 😊 7/4/2021 04:43:14 am
To Ms. Emma Jones at www.vintagesewingbox.co.uk, I recently learned about your website from my lady that cares for me daily. I went online and learned some ideas of the tools to use for making hexagons.

Me again Emma! Just to say that this afternoon I followed your instructions to make the hexagon needlecase. Turned out very pretty. Thank you for the easy to follow video instructions and the download. I think I shall make the pincushion next. Thank goodness it is the Easter hols and I can put off marking for a few more days (as well as housework~it's not going anywhere after all, is it?) and indulge myself. Leave a Reply. |
