Thank you Elizabeth

[@carolann963]

That was a lovely video Emma. Thank you. I went to Wales for a few days last week and took my box of hexi sewing with me which I haven't done for ages. It was so relaxing. A cottage in the mountains and sewing my hexi's. ❤️

[@emmajonesvintagesewingbox]

Oh that sounds wonderful! My idea of the perfect holiday!

[@redeemedvintageseamstress4728]

I don't know how i missed watching this video! It's so adorable. Thanks so much for the free pattern! I'll have to order flex frames right away!

[@emmajonesvintagesewingbox]

You’ll love making them I’m sure 🌸

[@redeemedvintageseamstress4728]

@emmajonesvintagesewingbox I appreciate you always answering or interacting with the people who leave comments/questions. It means a lot to have a channel creator interact! There are some channels I see the creator NEVER answers anyone. I think that's unfortunate. I, for one, appreciate your time (that you not only put into making your videos, but also the time it takes to interact with your followers). It means a lot! ☺️🥰☺️

[@emmajonesvintagesewingbox]

Oh thank you! That’s very kind of you to say. I get so much from the interaction with viewers, it really lifts my day 😊

[@andreaplayford4340]

Thank you once again Emma for another inspiring tutorial . I love the hexi flower and the sweetly embroidered butterflies. I’m thinking these would make perfect little Christmas gifts for the dear ladies in my quilting group, and if I get started now I should be able to get finished on time .😊

[@emmajonesvintagesewingbox]

oh they would be perfect gifts! have fun making them

[@conqueringmountscrapmorewi2509]

Hi! I hope you had an awesome day! I spent my day in my sewing room getting a big project done and now I get to sit and watch your video while I make yarn. I hope you have a fabulous week ahead. Thank you for posting this video and sharing your positive energy

[@Anne5440_]

What a lovely purse! I have been thinking of you. I am so glad to see this video. I know you are such a busy mum. The UK Amazon link was sold out. But I was able to find the same frames on the US site. Since I am US that will be faster. I love this pattern with the butterflies. I am slowly doing your other patterns. Treatments this winter have slowed my progress. My scissor case is in the final assembly.

[@emmajonesvintagesewingbox]

I’m so happy you are making one, and the scissors case too! It’s been a crazy time but hopefully I can get back into the swing of creating videos now. Thanks so much for watching

[@mary-ruthflores4107]

I wrap a strip of masking tape on both sides of each metal piece, one piece the exact size of the metal and the other side overlaps to encase the metal. It helps to keep the sharp from wearing thru

fabulous! I hope you enjoy using it

[@pamlacey136]

Another lovely video, and I hope to try this little purse. Thank you so much. I have a question for you. I have some small pieces of Liberty fabric that are their prints. I don’t have any plain material that is Liberty. If I want to use my prints in a quilted piece, will it work to add plain quilting cotton with the Liberty prints? They are a little different in weight so I didn’t know if it works to mix the two fabrics. Please give me you thoughts on this. I see that you use plain fabrics with your Liberty prints but I didn’t know if they are Liberty fabrics also. Thanks so much for your help - I appreciate it. Happy stitching and designing………..

[@emmajonesvintagesewingbox]

Hi Pam, thanks so much for watching. I don’t use any plain Liberty ever. I use plain quilting cotton because it’s cheaper and I don’t mind the difference in the weight of it, I actually like that look. In this video I used Robert Kaufman Essex linen but sometimes I use the Tilda basics quilting cottons, moda Bella solids or art gallery fabrics. I hope that helps

[@pamlacey136]

@@emmajonesvintagesewingbox Yes, that is a big help to me! Thank you so much for taking the time to respond to my question. I really appreciate it!🥰

[@susannichols1034]

Hi Emma love the little purse. Maybe I missed it but can’t seem to find the size of the hexies or hexiforms that you used for the embellishment. Thank you for the tutorial and pattern. ❤

[@emmajonesvintagesewingbox]

If I remember correctly, I used 3/8” size. The info should be on my website on the free patterns page, I hope that helps

[@margaretbachmeier5299]

[@emmajonesvintagesewingbox]

Thank you Margaret. It is from Laura Ashley but from about 6 years ago

[@beckywalker1519]

Hey Emma, why do you leave the Hexiforms in, but take out the paper?

[@emmajonesvintagesewingbox]

Hi Becky, the hexiform is fabric so that’s why it stays in. If you left papers in, they would deteriorate over time faster than fabric

[@margaretbachmeier5299]

What size of needle do you use.

[@emmajonesvintagesewingbox]

For EPP I use a size 9 milliners
