Hi Sharon, the little wooden stands on my shelves are homemade. I made them to display my hoops when I do my Stitching Shows. I'll bring one forward and show them off better on my next Flosstube x

Thanks for sharing your lovely projects and haul. Love The Pumpkin House pattern - what a cool idea to sew together 2 different pieces of fabric. Love Megan at Coffee Craft fabrics, her fabrics are lovely. Really like your version of Dreaming of Summer sal, I've got some rustico aida, sort of a flecked oatmeal colour and I'm wondering if that might be a good option. Happy stitching 🪡🧵✂️

@lovepoppetcrossstitchАй бұрын
I did my dyeing with Rit Dye, 2 colours Rose Quartz and Sunshine Orange. The fabric was wet and scrunched up in a selection of Kilner jars that I already owned (and didn't match size wise). It came out looking a bit bright so I then did a second dyeing with a watered down Taupe to calm it all down a bit. Really loved trying out the process, I'll be dyeing again soon I'm sure x

Great video Claire! Seeing your Poisonous Plants WIP makes me want to get back to mine. Looking forward to seeing more on your Patreon. With regards to the hare needle minder, I prefer the sitting/moon gazing one. So pleased you are making and stocking the hoop buts. I am hoping you will do other sizes at some point as I need 5 inch ones plus other sizes (I'd have to measure!) for a few of my hoop finishes. I'm also hoping the PDF of the love birds pattern will be released 🤞 Happy stitching! 🪡 🧵
@lovepoppetcrossstitchАй бұрын
Hi Sarah, if you need 5 inch butts I know Kate Blandford sells that size in her Etsy shop - she may do other smaller sizes too. I only have 6 and 7 inch hoops here, so wouldn't like to guess the size that the butt would need to be. I think the hare sitting seems to be the favourite, this surprises me! But I guess that's why it's worth asking. The Lovebird's pdf is up in my shop, under Everything's Peachy. 🥰

Hi Claire! Your poisonous plants looks great! The Owl Forest mushrooms is their current free SAL so you should be able to find what has already been published and there are still more to go. They have lovely SALs, usually quite large. Your spider web piece is going to look amazing on that special fabric. I look forward to seeing that when you start. I rarely show my threads too, for the very reason they are never as pretty as other Flosstubers make them 😉
