You do not have to apologize,please!!! I do not know how can I thanks you for this page!!! 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

[@EarlyMedievalEmbroidery]

That’s very kind, thank you ☺️

I am so enjoying watching you work on this. The scope of the Bayeux tapestry is mind boggling! I also love the wallpaper behind you in this video. It would make a beautiful crossstitch piece.

[@EarlyMedievalEmbroidery]

Ah, thank you ☺️. I love this wallpaper too! I hadn’t thought of it as a cross stitch piece but you’re right. Must concentrate on all the projects I’ve got on the go and not get distracted by this idea

[@sidewalkpirate23]

Eeeep. You have been super busy! I love these videos so much! Thank you for going through all this extra work to bring them to us. ❤

[@EarlyMedievalEmbroidery]

Thank you ☺️. April did feel a bit hectic. May was even worse, the latest update should be out over the weekend, but it’s now calming down a bit. Phew! 😮‍💨

I love your channel, please don’t apologise for being busy!! 💜

[@EarlyMedievalEmbroidery]

Thank you. I’m so glad, and it’s good to know people understand.

[@sternenregen5489]

All sounds very interesting❤

Just amazes me that with your professional and private life you have this “casual” bayeux recreation project just for a laugh! Don’t apologise, and I’d love a special announcement for when that writing is allowed to be announced!

[@EarlyMedievalEmbroidery]

Thank you ☺️. I’ll you posted on the writing front

[@marieeaton-smith5168]

No need for apologies ❤ You are a busy woman.

[@EarlyMedievalEmbroidery]

Thank you, that’s very kind of you

[@allonewordcaps]

Thank you for your update. Can’t wait for your announcement! I know you have been busy but I hope it has been a good time as well. Will you show some of the leather work you were talking about on the channel? Or show us some? All the best.

[@EarlyMedievalEmbroidery]

Unfortunately, I can’t show the leather analysis because it’s for an archaeology unit, but it should be published at some point. I’ll keep you posted.
