Introducing myself and a chat about what I know and what I don't know about embroidery!

[@Joanne555]

Sarah you are such a gift to us all! Fabulous teacher, so easy to follow and enjoyable to listen to! I am a beginner and watch you and I now have a growing list of projects I want to have a go at! Your videos are always the highlight of my day! I feel so thankful that I came across your channel! Please don’t stop!

[@daveturnbull7221]

My attitude is that if a day goes past without me learning something then it has been a day wasted. I'd say that your time spent travelling is one of your best investments - the exposure to other cultures is something of immense value especially if you are of a creative nature. When I decided that I needed to get an idea of what can be done with embroidery I had a look at a few youtube channels and have to say that yours stands out simply because of you. You communicate very well and at a pace that even my slow grey matter can take in. The fact that you are UK based and have a shop where I can buy any supplies I might need are bonuses that I'm happy to take. Having started off just wanting an insight into gold work (which I thought was all there was to embroidery) I'm finding my brain pulled in all sorts of different directions thanks to your wealth of great videos so thank you very much for massively increasing my work load!!! 🤣😁🤗💐

I've just taken up embroidery, having not done anything like this since junior school, when it was the only craft girls did! I have learnt so much from watching your videos, and now I'm going to make a needle book to sort and store my needles. Whilst watching your video of making a needle book, I suddenly remembered my mother's sewing box, which included a 1 page red felt needle holder, a bit raggety, but made by one of my older sisters when they were in junior school. Very long forgotten memory ❤

Thank you for sharing your other hobbies as I was beginning to think (in my senior years) that I should have stuck with one art and stuck with it instead of dabbling in a whole lot, including painting (which is generally not considered a fabric art). Your pursuit of various arts has validated my interest in so many. Love your channel and have so many videos to catch up on. THANK YOU!

Thank you Sarah for your fab videos. I have just returned to embroidery after many years having only really learnt the basics with my Grandmother. I'm soon to be 54 and decided to get a kit and now I'm hooked. In just a few weeks I've gone from a beginners kit to designing and drawing my own patterns to embroider.

[@deliabottoms285]

I feel as if we have sat down with a pot of tea to chat! What marvelous opportunities you have had in your life thus far, starting with your 8 month travel! 32 countries? Wonderful! I have traveled but you top the cake with your worldwide excursion! I envy the experience, knowledge and training you had at RNS. Yes it sounds like it was very challenging and tiring with the deadlines you described. But you learned quite a bit, knowledge that will be with you for the rest of your life. And best of all, you found your niche, which is teaching, and you discovered it while you were still young. I recall a professor stating that every person has a talent within themselves, buried like a diamond in the rough. Its just a matter for each of us to find it and polish it until it shines. Well, you certainly found yours Sarah. You are a marvelous embroiderer and an excellent teacher, there is no doubt about it. You have the knowledge, the passion, AND you the gifted ability to pass that knowledge on to the students! And you successfully do that with every class you record. I work at a college and I have observed over the years good professors and not so good professors. They all have the education and knowledge of course. But not all know how to explain the subject clearly and help students understand. So trust me when I say you are an wonderful teacher! I am very glad to have found your channel and I suscribed a week or so ago. I am trying to get back to embroidering ..something my mother taught me as a child and I had left it all behind when I was a teenager. It was many moons ago..I am now 63. But I believe I can start again. With your video courses, its only a matter of practice and being patient with myself. I look forward to catching up on your past videos and my goodness you have so many! I always enjoy watching you teach and I enjoy seeing your kitties when they decide to do a cameo appearance! Never stop teaching Sarah! And thank you for all your hard work. You are most appreciated!
