What a delight this week’s stitching will be. I can hardly wait to begin. And I’m so glad it’s paint on your check and not what I first thought…blood from a thorn attack from one of your lovely rose bushes. Marion, you have no idea what sunshine you’re bringing to those of us in this cold northern hemisphere winter. Thank you!🌷🌷🌷💚🌷

[@marionsworld24]

I haven't dare tackle the roses yet. It's too cold for being out for very long. I'm sure a couple of garden videos might surface as the spring gets going though...

You said it! Marion, everything janniecemacdonald said x2! Your vids are a true bit of "hygge" (i know that word is over-used these days, but it meant (and means!) something special long before it 'went viral' 😂 Thank you so much for the heartwarming visits.

Thanks Gemma. I made a conscious decision to only have the ads at the beginning and end.

[@deniseedmonds3070]

Absolutely loved last week's sewing. I did 3 circles with the little stitches all around, then used your inspired whipped stitch. I'd never done this before but loved it so much I got a bit carried away with it. Then continued with blanket stitch between the gaps around the circles. Thanks so much for the tip of angling the needle, my blanket stitch has never looked so good. So happy with it. I can't wait to see what you come up with on the last square. Ps. I have also done a a little water colour painting of whimsical houses. I can't believe how much I'd forgotten re techniques. Thanks for the encouragement 😊

[@marionsworld24]

[@oermama]

Oh that’s fun, must dive in my box of threads to see if I have thicker yarn to use, I think knitting cotton or wool will do too. I watched this video with Fay (one of our cats) contently sat on my lap, until your cat decided he wanted to be heard. Well, all hairs on her back rise and she looked frantic at the back of my iPad, and our other two cats ran towards the window to look outside 😂😂 I had to put in my EarPods to keep listening to you and to calm down our three musketeers. They prefer bird sound, like when you sat in your garden showing us stuff. Love your new look, made me smile and wonder, “what has she been up to?” See you next Sunday and have a lovely rest of the week. 👋🏼 👋🏼 from Shirley from the Netherlands

[@marjanwolfs6273]

First I tought you had a cat-attack. Not because they are angry, but sometimes cats are a little clumsy( I believe that is how it is called ) When I'am in bed, my cat Tara comes to sleep with me. But before she finaly lay down, she walks aroud and over my face. But It was paint on your face, that is normal when you are creative and do so many things. This page is very nice to do, I love it. See you sunday.,have a good week Marion.

I couldn't even believe I hadn't noticed it myself until the video was uploaded and scheduled. I must have watched it through so many times during the edit but never realised at all!

Hi Marion. Enjoyed seeing the blank page fill up. Interesting seeing the circles and lines work together. I think going freestyle is so enjoyable. I bought my mum a couple of embroidery kits. She's been enjoying doing them by using her own stiches and colours rather than following the instructions. She'll be 88 next birthday. We had snow yesterday, mostly gone today. Still very cold, though . X

[@jeanmansfield1138]

I enjoyed watching this as I am sitting stitching on an unfinished piece I found. I'm filling a space in with Seed Stitches from an old box of thick threads and oddments that I had forgotten. Fortunately some I'd wound onto bits of cards in order to get the lid on (years ago) and decided they need to be used. I always love the combination of orange/apricot/peach and shades of green. I used to paint doilies with these colours when I was little yet don't stitch them together much now I think about it. I can just hear the village bell ringers practising this evening and hope they've got layers on until they get warmed up as it's just above freezing outside and I don't expect it's much warmer in the belltower😮!!

They'll need their thermal underwear on I think... It'll be blooming freezing :)
