Im actually wearing a same vibrant blue sweater right now 😂 love the color. Im 20 minutes in and my suggestion is to make the bodice of the blue sweater from scratch out of the more coarse fabric you have and turn the weird cardigan into fantastic bishop sleeves. You could even reuse the trim of the cardigan for the bodice.

You did a beautiful job on the blue shirt with the birds. I love it!!! Thank you for sharing. God bless.

I prefer the left sleeve. It looks a bit more classy like the body of the sweater. Great video!

Me encanta todo. Me alegras el día y me inspiras, Luz ❤

Love it, what about washing it to make it more flexible ❤

Sorry to leave so many. What if the darker scarf on that beige sweater had a style of sleeve that is like an attached wing that lies on top of the sweater and is attached from back bottom, up around shoulder, back down to front bottom? We had something like this in the 70s. Then the sweater armhole is normal, just covered by the 'wings'. I'm reminded of caftans, I think. ??

Very nice! I'm really hoping I can do such things without a serger. What would you think about creating a loose twist out of the sleeve blue and sewing it around the neck, possibly with some hanging down as a scarf would at the bottom of the neck? Or not with some hanging down but just something that looks like a loose, generous braid-like twist along the neckline.

I'm fantasizing about sparkles on the neck band of the blue sweater.

I like the sleeve on the beige sweater, and then can it have a non-gathered 'ruffle' on the bottom of about 6" or more, with the fringe?

*Isn't* it amazing how the colors exactly match these days? I think they're using Pantone across the fashion industry, so they agree on all of the main colors used *exactly*! It really makes it fun to combine some things. (Esp completely different prints with the exact same colors!) Thank you for these videos!

I liked the first one pre green

What beautiful blue fabrics. I liked the way the right-arm sleeve looked after you shortened it 😊

🐧 😂 You don't look like a penguin. I 💙 that cobalt blue colour too! Finished version with cuff looks great!

I really like the color and fabric combination with the cream best and scarf.

I love it

I love watching you think through the process and sometimes succeed and sometimes not. That’s the reality!

❤❤❤

I love the royal blue sweater you upcycled. I think the sleeves are perfect.

the sleeve on the right

Cream jumper ….. I prefer the rhs sleeve the cream and the scarf look so good together The other cream jumper with the pink evidenced yet again your skill in mixing materials

The blue sweater looks much better ;)

It is such a revelation when you compose with fabrics. Colours suddenly merge and make a new perfect whole. The sleeve to the right makes the pattern rich and would be my choice too, but the left one has such personality, The final top is so delicate in colour - it is just an idea, but your embroidery with the Danish text and H.C. Andersen could make a special set of sleeves?:)

Love batwings.

I like the blue top. I think it would be good to make it a little closer fitting. The cream color top would be so pretty with white lace sleeves.

love the sleeves.

I see you ha e all your lovely fabrics on show in your craft room. Every time while I am watching you I wonder if all your fabrics get attacked by small moths. I have a problem with mine some times especially wool. I do love your videos

Like the sleeve on the right side of the top.

You are soooo creative! I love your videos! It feels like “ sewing with a friend “! So on the beije sweater I like the sleeve on the R better, since you asked! Thanks for all the inspiration!

For the beige sweater and pink scarf: The pattern in the middle would make a lovely front shape. And then I’d use the long wise stripes for sleeves. I wish I could send you the edited screen shot, but I don’t think I can post it here.

The second embroidery, lady- I believe that is replica of Art of Alphonse Mucha not goddess but a secession posters

What a beautiful collection! My favorite is the Asian woman with the flute. So pretty! I never thought to buy needle art but now if I see something really nice, I will be open to purchasing it. thank you for sharing!!

Beautiful ❤️

Maybe gather top of sleeves? Blouse is cute👍

Cold water with a few drops of Dawn liquid dishwashing detergent for cleaning.

Thank you for sharing (and honouring) these artworks! They are so lovely and I can appreciate why you've saved them. I've rescued 4 such pieces myself that I've made into cushions. They don't match but are all geometric patterns. Using some of them in your creative makes will be gorgeous. And others displayed is lovely too. They are getting admired and treasurered so I think the original maker would welcoming your use in whatever way you are inspired (much better than in the garbage heap). 💟

The blue vase with red flowers would look great on the back of a denim jacket ir coat.

wow wonderful thankyou for sharing! blue pot/flowers and candle/wine need framing just an opinion hugs!

The last white squares would be beautiful in a white peplum top. One piece for each front & back for the bodice, then some other fabric for backing and sleeves,and then some lace for collar, sleeve cuffs and peplum! Beautiful in my head anyway! The Greecian goddess I see on a gold bedspread or comforter; damask maybe?!

Cold water and baby shampoo soak have worked for me in the past with cross stitch😊 Also dry flat on a lighter colored towel then press using a cloth and some steam...hope works for you❤

Hola. Saludos desde Tenerife, antes que nada. 😊 Antes de meterlos en agua hirviendo y algo de jabón, hazles el zig zag alrededor para que no se deshagan demasiado. No necesitas frotar, con surmergirlos es suficiente. Eso es lo que hacemos cuando los bordamos. Lo que yo haría con ellos, a parte de bolso y/o mochilas como tú dices, algunos son ideales para poner en las espaldas de chaquetas, incluso de alguna vaquera. Otros simpl3mente sirven para hacer cojines, motivos centrales de colchas, que pueden hacer crochet alrededor del trabajo de punto de cruz...y seguro que mil ideas más. 😊

❤❤❤

Those are beautiful ❤❤❤

Thank you so much for taking us with you into your collection of needlework! They would make some gorgeous backs to a jacket or a long dress. The one "Livet er selv det dejligste Æventyr/life itself is the loveliest story" - is Danish 😀, my own language - they are of stories by Hans Christian Andersen. Thank you for highlighting the work of women!

The writing on the table cloth is in Danish and I think the lady missing a flute is made with petit point 🤔 Lovely collection of embroidery 😻

The godess would be awesome on the back of a coat

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing! Few of them are gorgeous for pillows!

Those all are lovely. I believe they are all cross stitched not embroidered. Personally I believe they are more suited for framing to admire and would not cut them. For your purse you might want to fold the oval one and line it then stitch it into a metal purse frame. This would keep the beauty of the tapestry intact.

The embroidery with the girl is ispired by the art of Mucha. I like it very much! But they all are very nice

@8:11 i think its showing her hair color. So shes looking down, her hair is shown in that orangish color.

I'd totally frame all these beautiful works of art and dedicate the largest wall in my house to display them all. 😂
