Great video and I'm excited to follow your chatelaine journey

[@patriciamillar5496]

First time I’m seeing these. Georgeous . Thank you.

[@annieann99]

Thank you for sharing, your english is charming

[@eastcoaststitcher8203]

Thank you for this. You have done a wonderful job with this video.

[@juliecasey2384]

This really makes me want to start mine even more. It should be here this afternoon!!!!! Yours looks amazing. Hurry up and do more!!

[@learevenga]

omg!! Happy start Julie!! And thank you so much! I got a new Gecko Rouge kit in today though and I'm struggling so hard to resist a start on that T_T

[@juliecasey2384]

@@learevenga You'll just have to start it and then make a new rotation so you get to all your lovely projects. Is it the Gamer? I love that one.

[@learevenga]

@@juliecasey2384 You're right, that's the only way! I actually had gamer as my number one to order! :D But they had a special club kit available for only 2 weeks, so I had to order that one first. i showed a picture in my flosstube#4 of the sandman and just filmed an unpacking ^_^

[@juliecasey2384]

Oh that's right. I saw that in your video. I didn't see the video until after the last day to order, but that's okay because I have about 50 years worth of stitching to do already. I'm excited about the unpacking though. I'll be watching for it.

[@learevenga]

@@juliecasey2384 Oh I yes, me too! I will pause the club now and at first I was scared to miss such a cool design but then...we all really have enough stash and filled wishlists xD

[@desertstitcher8735]

I'm excited you're doing a Chatelaine. I've got my eye on one. I look forward to seeing your progress.

[@learevenga]

Hey Joanne, thank you so much! I just watched your second video yesterday! Have you decided on a design? Will it be the desert? :D

[@desertstitcher8735]

@@learevenga I think I would like to do the desert eventually but the first one I want to do is called Rose Lights. It looks like maybe it would be a little bit simpler and cheaper to start with and it's really pretty. Unfortunately you can't buy it as a kit anymore so I'm going to work in kitting it up myself gradually.

[@learevenga]

Oh that's lovely! I really hope you can find all the flosses. But the designs are really so detailed that it is still looking great even with dmc.

[@hellionstao4573]

I'm so excited to find your video, I just started medievel town, my first chatalaine , I am still trying to gather the glosses, hard to get them during the pandemic. I also found your flicker, did you stitch all of those? Thanks, I will follow you. Funny I work at Ikea!!

[@juliewilliams3049]

I kitted mine up over 12 months got my silks in France xxx the blues are the ones that stand out in silk rather than the DMC xxx

[@learevenga]

That's really true. I compared the blues later on and it makes a HUGE difference! I hae all the blue silks now - really worth it, you're right!

[@anitavalerio7437]

Hi Lea, i really enjoyed your video and look forward to seeing your progress on the Chat elaine. You did a great job and your English is perfect!!

[@learevenga]

Thank you sooooo much Anita!!

[@CerroneSamuel]

My dream is to do at least 3 of these❤️

[@tinhtam6089]

Hello Lea: Since I am not a native speaker of English, I didn't understand everything you said. Please may I ask again what kind of fabric you are using for this Chatelaine. Thank you for this demonstration.

[@learevenga]

Hey Tinh I am using 32ct Monaco in white :)

[@desireebarhorst-weller1767]

I would love to make the Serengeti Chatelaine on black (or very dark) fabric one day. I hope to buy the pattern next month and maybe the fabric also. I hope to buy the DMC threads in September and save up a small amount of money for the beads and silks each month or buy a bit each month. As it happens, I live in the Netherlands, but my German s*cks, which is why I talk in English. Lol

[@learevenga]

Ohh awesome that you're starting your adventure, too! Yeah Fabric and pattern alone are an investment - and we europeans pay double for dmc :/ English is the way to go - I don't know a single word in dutch and I forgot all about the languages from school :D

[@michellevillarama1556]

Where did u get the kit

[@learevenga]

I put it together myself
