Thank you for the lovely video! I am dyslexic and your tutorials are wonderful tools. I have struggled to make the ladder stitch work & your video really clarified the process. Plus I always enjoy your lovely accent! ❤

Thank you so much for these videos! I am a visual learner and although the pictorials are fabulous, seeing you actually do it just gives me the "a ha" moment.

[@DollsAndDaydreams]

That's my pleasure! I totally understand ... if only hadn't have been so super shy I would have come out with these videos earlier!!!

You are so nice and helpful! I am trying to make my boyfriend a plush of a video game character for his birthday but I am not very good with plush making and I want this one to be great. You are a real life saver, Sarah.

Beautiful ! I know I like everything sewing but I’ve seen these hand embroidery stitches come in handy for so many uses ! Lol any how you explain better than pros who teach hand embroidery stitches on here as far as making it so simple plus also understanding how as well ! My favorite is your video of doing the French knot ! Which can be a bear for many newbies so to speak :-) but where it’s easy to mess up is they never say to put your needle next the first stitch ! This is why they seem so hard to make ;-/ lol just a simple video and all of effort isn’t waisted anymore lol ty so much ! I wanna make a dolly for my nieces baby one day ! I really think I could do it with these videos to help ! I’m not the best with written instructions as I am with watching ! Also please what kind of fabric is this that you are using ? So pretty the detail ! It looks like a Muslim or a Kona cotton but that print detail is so beautiful ! Is that fabric available still ? Or is this the screen printing ? I know this can be done I’ve heard all though I’ve never attempted this :-) idk if I could anyways but to buy this type of fabric it’s pretty :-) ty again !

You are so kind! Thank you so much. I am so pleased I could help. I use Kona cotton for doll faces ... this fabric is just a fun cotton print I picked up to make curtains with donkeys years ago for my daughter's room lol ... from IKEA of all places! 😂😊✂️❤ what can I say ..... I might have a fabric hording problem lol
