[@alisonowen8547]

Always lovely to see you Ingeborg. Your Châtelaine is beautiful - those blues and greens are gorgeous. I appreciate your considered views and recommendations - you always have something insightful to say.

Hello dearest friend!!! After a very long FlossTube watching break, I decided to jump back in and this video is the first one I've seen. Your Chatelaine is exquisite! Loved seeing the stuff you got in the mail and hearing your thoughts racism and also gaming. I look forward to our next stitching meetup!!

[@AStitchTooFar]

Just checked my calender and it's been twoo weks so I missed yesterday. Will reschedule for next week, hope you can make it!

[@andreac-iheartcrossstitch]

So good to see you sweet friend. Love your head wrap, you look so pretty. Thank you for your comments on social issues, 😘and for having the courage to discuss. Words ARE hard to find, even in our native tongue. I downloaded your book recommendation immediately. Be well, dear one.

So sorry to hear the migraines have been recurring this month. I hope you can find some comfort stitching. I am in awe of anyone who tackles a Chatelaine. Those colours are just fabulous. You seem to be over halfway through now so a finish could be on the horizon? Take care Ingeborg. All best wishes from the UK, Liz

So good to see you! Your Lotus Pond is so vibrant, just beautiful! You really stitched a lot. Wow, a wall hanging! What a great idea and your stitching looks so good. You should be proud of it! I did a mostly patriotic Maynia with a birthday start on the 11th of JBW's Green Gables. I recently got on Instagram @ddestitches and have enjoyed posting my project progress there. Hope you have a good vacation. Take care and stitch on!

Hi Ingaborg. You made huge progress on your chatelaine - it's gorgeous. Love the wall hanging too. For Maynia I just did 4 new starts and then worked on WIPs. Thank you for your video. And by the way, your English is perfect.

[@SewStitchyUK]

Welcome back, I've been binge watching your floss tubes. The fabric is Zweigart, you can tell by the orange thread through the selvedge

[@AStitchTooFar]

thanks :) and thanks for binging, lol

[@judyrosy]

Ingeborg!! So glad to see you. I LOVE your hair like that!!! ❤

[@kristimartin3427]

Your Chatelaine is coming along nicely. I always enjoy hearing your thoughts on different subjects.

[@joanclarke5531]

Always good to see your video on my feed. I think your chatelaine is fabulous, you've made great headway. What about all your other finishes? Have you framed them and hung in your house? If so, maybe a little tour is in order? You know how curious we are. I appreciate your point of view on current issues, I fully support your right to speak about anything that is affecting any & all humans in the world. Your English is perfect, don't apologize for it. I'm always amazed by your making videos in what is not your native language, I certainly couldn't do one in my native tongue!

[@pamlacey136]

It was good to see a video from you. I love your finishes; you did a beautiful job. Your chatelaine is really getting so pretty; exciting progress. These are very unsettling and stressful times so I appreciate you voicing your concerns and thoughts. I hope that you soon feel better and up to doing your normal things. Hugs and happy stitching..................

Hi Ingaborg. It is always nice to see you. I enjoy seeing your progress on the Chatelaine. It will be stunning when it is completed. I may buy the book you spoke about, White Privilege. I read American Dirt, regarding an Mexican immigrant’s need to reach the US. There was much controversy surrounding this book but I had to read it myself, being Mexican-American. The book was good but the Mexican American community had a problem with the author not being from Mexico but being 1/10 Puerto Rican. My belief is that she wrote a very good book which she had researched for four years. The Mexican American Community felt like the author did not have the right to write a book about Mexicans, but she did research the book and put together a very striking book of what it is like to come to America.. The author mixed in some true details with a fiction story. Keep well and keep us updated on your stitching. Enjoy hearing from you. Elisa

I have 4 parcels that are somewhere since April/May and hopefully will make their way to me in the future sometime. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Your Chatelaine is lovely 💙 Take care and stay safe 🧵💐

Geniet van je weekje vakantie! Ik hoop dat de migraine zich een poosje rustig houdt 🍀 Groetjes, Evelien

[@deannachavez9226]

I always enjoy your videos and comments on current issues we’re facing. Thanks for the links to books on needlework and other things. I think I will order the book on samplers, even though I will have to use a lot of google translation! Was “darning sampler” the term you were trying to remember? I love the way you stitched and finished the Salem witches sampler. Take care of yourself.

[@kaitstitches6812]

your wall hanging turned out great! Did you use a particular tutorial for it or just wing it? Your chatelaine is looking great- thanks for sharing!

[@AStitchTooFar]

i used a few tutorials from youtube, especially one that shows how to do double mitered edge. I have a playlist with tutorials and I thinks it's in there if you want to have a look

[@efvjhh]

gotta ask, have you ever checked out the dragon age series? the most recent game turned me into a gamer 🤭

[@AStitchTooFar]

don't think i know it, will check it out!
