Make a Diorama Ornament - Cross Stitch / Needlework Finishing - Vonna Pfeiffer

[@tinaphillips_]

Oh Vonna, I just had to stop the video to say THANK YOU FOR YOUR VIDEOS! I'm at the interfacing explanation part of the video......🤨 I so appreciate the time that not only you but all of the KZbinrs take to make video tutorials for all us viewers to follow along and give us the knowledge to do our own finishes. Please continue to share with all of us. I would love to see your trees! That's a lot of ornaments. Remember, there's always one in the crowd.......😀 Thank you, again!

[@VonnaPfeiffer]

It’s all good, I understand if they watch an older one where I use one thing, then a newer one where I say another it can be upsetting, but these are free. I am not charging fees, I just am trying to give abundantly and lavishly to my friends to help them on their journey of finishing, with fresh, new ideas and the best products I know to give the best finish I know to produce. I felt a “blanket statement” was appropriate. Thank you for your kindness ❤

[@MarieH528]

Couldn't have expressed it any better, I totally agree! Vonna is such a a generous and kind blessing to us all!

[@kathydeschuiteneer4826]

Vonna I want to personally thank you for your videos. I did note that you changed interfacing but figured like you said. You found something you liked better. I have made 6 shepherds bush Christmas stockings and used your tutorial every single time and I can tell you that I probably would not have finished them and be happy with the finish but thanks to you and your excellent video I did and am proud of my finish. Thanks again.

[@VonnaPfeiffer]

@@kathydeschuiteneer4826 I’m so happy I could help you in a small way, Merry Christmas!

[@maryannebenoit3488]

I totally agree. Thank you for all your videos. It is very much appreciated.

[@lestalittle9547]

Oh, Vonna I can't begin to tell you how much I've enjoyed and learned from your videos. Please ignore all complaining comments. They just don't appreciate all you do for us crafters and especially cross stitchers. I'm going to Hobby Lobby tomorrow and hope they still have some of these frames. I still refer to your flat fold video every time I make one. Thanks so much and have a wonderful Christmas.

[@diannekorber9425]

Thank you Vonna for always sharing with such a gracious heart and soul. You are cherished by many and a true gift to the cross stitch community!!! Thank you!

[@carolturnerrd]

I think we are all stopping the video to say thank you for ALL you do to help us on our finishing journey. I learn something each time I watch. Sometimes something so simple - iron the circle after you have gathered it to make it flat!! 🤗

[@marshahodgkins9215]

Vonna. Thanks so much for the wisdom of professional craftsmanship that you FREELY share so GENEROUSLY to all of us! Please don’t let those thankless wankers deter you from your personal mission. I for one learn so much from you. God bless!

[@annettehubbatd7571]

Thank you so very much for all the FREE tutorials!!!!!!! Many others will charge for less than what you give us all for free of your God given gift! Haters are going to hate! Please never mind them. Nothing you say will change their attitude! Just stay your positive light of God that you shine so brightly making the world a better placeThanks again! You Rock!!♥️

[@TheWhitnick]

Vonna, WOW what a creative idea! Thank you so much for all you have done for the counted cross stitch industry. You are a true blessing!!!

[@tinageorge8759]

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you Vonna, I just simply adore you my dear precious friend. You do so much for all of us and I can’t thank you enough!!!!!! 💚

[@raeannoneill8392]

Vonna, I am so sorry there are people out there who don't appreciate what you are GIVING us. You have taught me so much. My advice is to block the ungrateful spoiled brats. I pray you will forget the unappreciated comments and have a blessed Christmas. THANK YOU!!!

[@carolevans5330]

And we all thank you for all your shares…..I would never be able to finish without you!!!!!!

[@joannclahane2723]

Thank you Gonna. All your videos are fabulous and help the less creative finishers. Please ignore the nay sayers and keep the videos coming for those that appreciate them. All the best for 2023!

[@loriginsberg7261]

Well.... these are absolutely the sweetest ornaments ever! I will be making these for Christmas 2023. Thank you for sharing and your generosity. Your tutorials are always so wonderful.

[@rutheldredge-augusta3959]

I love your tutorial videos !! Please don’t let anyone discourage you from doing them !!! I finished my first piece because of you and your videos!! Thank you !

[@carolehenderson2736]

One one of her videos Sheri, The Colorado Cross Stitcher, recommended your tutorials to learn everything about finishing. I am so grateful for her shout out. Thanks to you I am confident that I can finish my projects in ways that I would never have attempted before. I also loved your Cave talks.

[@tanyadelong4793]

Thank you honey. I’ve always been so thankful for your kindness and generosity in sharing your videos. Shame on those who aren’t grateful. Please pay no attention to them. I love you dearly honey. You are the best. 💗

[@donnawalker3910]

Vonna, you are a treasure. There is always going to be negative Nellies that yuck your yum. Ignore them because we love you and your tutorials. Thank you!

[@kathyrutter4273]

Thank you for this and all of your videos. Don’t worry about the complainers. If they don’t like your videos then they shouldn’t watch them. But, as for me, I learn so much from you and I appreciate your sharing of your talents and knowledge.

[@stefaniestaniak4329]

Great tutorial. And yes we all evolve and learn as we go. The best part for us is your tutorials help us to not make so many errors along the way. Thank you, I truly appreciate it.

[@caroljshockey91]

Thank you again beautiful lady for teaching us. You are a gift from God.

[@bethkoenig9160]

Thanks so much for another great tutorial. I so appreciate all the time you put into helping all of us to have success in finishing our stitching pieces. Please don't take the negative comments to heart. I think you are one of the most talented and generous people out there. May you and your family have a blessed holiday and a wonderful 2023. ......Now I have to run out to Hobby Lobby to see if they still have any of those ornament kits!..... Thanks again and God bless you

[@elizabethingalls2821]

Thank you, Vonna, for all that you do! You are my "go to" gal for all of my stitching and finishing help. Your videos are always very clear and easy to follow. I sincerely appreciate the time you take to help our crafting community. Please have a wonderful holiday!!

[@donnacarman5429]

Vonna, THANK YOU for everything that you share with us. Yes, you ARE doing us a huge favor and I am most appreciative. You do you and we love you for it! This saying pretty much sums up the whiners: if someone gave them a gold brick...they would ask for a bag to carry it!

[@janeevans7495]

Amazing! Vonna, you are a STAR! Thank you a million and one for your giving heart...sharing what you know! Hugs!

[@hopemarshall5116]

Vonna another interesting needlework you are the greatest can’t say it enough 😘😘😘

[@kathyhuff3406]

Thank you for sharing. Couldn’t do it without your tutorials. Enjoyed. ❤

[@gilliangamble8287]

Hi Vonna, I just had to stop the video to say a Big Thank You to you 💗🤗 for giving up your time , showing us all your techniques and secrets on cross stitch finishing 😍 you are a gem to our community I would have no idea on finishing finished projects if it wasn't for you and your kindness on sharing your skills with us all 🙂 So thank you thank you thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@debradawson3051]

Thank you Vonna for all that you share. At this point in time as during the pandemic, many professional finishers are backed up for months as are framers. Your tutorials have helped so many people finish their projects in addition to saving money. I’m dedicating February 2023 to fully finishing my 2022 projects so your guidance, tips and tricks will come in handy. I’m not sure what has happened to gratitude, kindness and respect but I remain hopeful.

[@VonnaPfeiffer]

I’m a professional finisher and I’m backed up all the time pandemic or not 😂 I thank you for your kindness ❤️

[@brendanixon6488]

I just want to say that I am so thankful for your creative gifts…and may I mention FREE…you share with us. People please be kind. If you don’t have nice things to say then maybe don’t watch the videos and create your own. SORRY for the rant. I appreciate you Vonna as I know many others do as you are mentioned on many Flosstubers. ❤️🤗

[@susansteelman8106]

Hi Vonna, you certainly are a treasure in so many "stitcher's" lives. I truly appreciate the time you take to share with all of us. You are a phenomenal teacher, sharing your wealth of information, guiding us in helping us to create so many wonderful things. Thank you , Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Wishing you and your family a most Joyous Holiday Season.🎄

[@VonnaPfeiffer]

Thank you ❤

[@barbaraingold]

Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful finishing ideas with us. I truly appreciate everything you freely share with us.

[@sunrise49738]

Hi Vonna! So excited for this tutorial. People really need to take a chill pill and quit being so critical, especially of people like you who are trying to share their knowledge with the world free of charge. I absolutely love this finish. Thank you so much for freely sharing these ornaments. This finishing adds just the perfect touch.

[@denisecremer2992]

I appreciate everything you do Vonna and save all your videos! Great "fresh" idea for finishing our stitched Christmas ornament pieces. You are the best!!

[@rosemorrill5690]

Just love this ornament finish. Thank you for all your finishing tutorials.

[@jeantruckey1502]

Thank you again for sharing your finishing expertise! I will be looking for this at Hobby Lobby! This series of finishing tutorials is a wonderful gift. Thank you! 🪡🪡🪡

[@angelaspring7828]

Hi Vonna, thank you for all you do for us to learn! Love your work. Angela

[@lidabard2121]

Thank you! I appreciate that you share your expertise with anyone that wants to learn. You are a roll model and mentor.

[@sarabrunsvold2461]

These ornaments are adorable!!!! I love the color combination!!!!! Last year I made the plastic flat-sided ornaments because of you!!! I also have my glue in a ball jar because of you!! This community is quite fortunate to have your tutorials!!!! Thank you and God bless you and your family!!!

[@deborahdelisle35]

Thank you Vonna! You have encouraged me to be my own finisher! Ever video explains in detail how to accomplish a treasured piece that I have stitched. Appreciate yr kind & generous heart 🥰

[@sharronyeates1255]

Another brilliant completion. Love that you are such a great tutor and that you don’t do second best. Fussy and efficient, great combination ❤️👏👏👏👏

[@charmaineborg960]

Thank you Vonna. You are a born teacher and inspirator

[@susannorton2495]

Thank you so much for doing these videos. I find your instructions and finishing advice so very helpful! Much appreciated!

[@conniefullmer7824]

Hi Vonna, thank you, thank you, thank you for all the great tutorials. I have learned so much from your finishing tutorials!!!

[@andreastehman4995]

Another beautiful finishing technique. Thank you so much Vonna!

[@kathymcdonald367]

Thank you so very much. All of your videos are so informative. I love that you are able to hold your camera so close so we can see well. When I was "stamping" several years ago, I would wipe around that little acetate circle when cleaning it for the last time and use a dryer sheet and that would eliminate the static cling coming from the clear acetate sheet and then the little beads would not stick. It didn't look like you were having a problem. Thanks for all you do and share with us, I have learned so much.

[@jodempsey3761]

Thank you for this tutorial!!! This finish is gorgeous! I'm also sorry you get grief over your tutorials. You could just as easily show your creation and then advertise for your finishing. Instead you give us your time, experience, and creativity for free. I've cross stitched for 40+ years and am very aware of how much finishing costs for even a small. We pay for that creativity, experience, and time happily. These tutorials give me the confidence to try to finish my own work. Thank you again! You are appreciated!

[@rosarioflores5497]

Beautiful finish as always. Thank you for sharing and teaching us how to finish our cross stitch pieces. You are very generous.

[@beccilund4305]

Thank you so much for sharing your awesome gift of finishing! Best gift ever!!!,!

[@stitchingandstashing6081]

Thanks for such clear instructions on all your videos. I have started taking risks in my finishing thanks to your videos.

[@cynthiabaker2794]

You’re the Rock Star of finishing! Thanks for the videos!

[@VonnaPfeiffer]

I would garner a guess that most people absolutely do not agree. I do appreciate your kindness however ❤

[@rebeccajourney3183]

Vonna love, you are the bomba! 🎅 Love to you and yours❣ Happy new year's wishes! Darling lady. With 500 ornaments under your belt, you are THE PROFESSIONAL!! But besides that, we love you! You're faith, love of family, love of sewing, I just admire you so much. I wish my mom were still around (she'd bex100 next April 7th,) but I know she'd love you too!! She was a tailor level sewist! And the sweetest mom in the universe!! So I am sending you her love and mine💕 I cross stitched ornaments this year and gave to those who improved my life this last year. They were well received❣

[@margaretbunton5957]

Vonna please know that I appreciate. Love and finish my stitching using all of your finishing videos. Both old and new are thee best. Thank you for sharing.x

[@creativeraquelb]

I am so excited that you released a tutorial on this finish! Coincidentally I have those same patterns and have yet to stitch them. I think they will make beautiful diorama ornaments following your method. Thanks for your time and generosity, Vonna.

[@kris_cross_stitches5748]

Thank you so much for the tutorials you so. I truly appreciate each and everyone of them. Thanks to your videos, I have the confidence to fully finish my pieces. Without the videos I wouldn’t have done it. Thank you again. Merry Christmas!

[@shinglespringsstitcher]

[@ban05anacg]

Just found this video. I am a new Cross stitcher and I watch a lot of videos to learn this craft, which I am really enjoying. I just want to say your video tutorial is one of the BEST I’ve seen. You are so helpful in giving the names of the items that you use, everything stays on the screen and you are wonderful in your explanations. I have subscribed to your channel. Thank you so much for your help.

[@momtoask]

What an adorable ornament! Thank you so much for showing us how to make it ♥️

Glad to see you again. I love your videos. They are so thorough. I love this idea. Thanks for taking time to share, especially during the hectic holidays!

[@kmbrlydwn1126]

I love your videos!! And I love your brutal honesty! You said exactly what I think when some of these people make the snarky comments.. not just to you… but anyone that is brave enough to put yourself in the public. I’ve seen some in tears over things. There are just mean, rude people in this world! Keep being YOU! ❤

[@TeeBenedict-ch3sk]

What an amazing, creative, talented person you are! Thank you so much for sharing your super ideas with us. You have given me confidence and knowledge to complete many of my projects. I appreciate your precision and attention to detail, as well as your kindness in sharing your creative ideas. I enjoy and benefit from every video! THANK YOU.

[@elizabethbryan9475]

New to your floss tube and loving them. Greetings from New Zealand🙋‍♀️🎄🤶

[@ababaigalit]

First of all I want to thank you for passing your knowledge ideas and tutorials for free. I really appreciate. With time you become more knowledgeable and the tutorials are getting better. Your new shaker ornament is very beautiful and elegant.

[@bonniescheffer3154]

Thank you Vonna for all your help during this Christmas season, showing us everything that you did. Don’t worry about what people say to you. You are a special lady

[@wendyfast6038]

Thank you for this awesome video!! These are so fun to make. We stitchers are so fortunate to have your tutorials for finishing. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

[@aprilstanaland3924]

Vonna, brilliant!! Love this idea and the tutorial. It is always enjoyable spending time with you. Thanks for all you do for this community and helping each of us become the best we can be. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

[@jenniferkeeney305]

Thank you so much! I have found the finish for my grandchildren's ornaments for next year🥰

[@Kellie.71]

I have enjoyed and watched every single video that you have shared this season (and all of the previous videos as well). THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I’m now getting ready to jaunt to Hobby Lobby to try to find those ornaments and make my own soon. 😊😊😊

[@SouthernDame]

Thank you so much for these videos! ❤❤❤ Without you teaching me how to do this on my own, I probably wouldn’t be able to craft so much or would have to self-frame everything because I wouldn’t be able to afford to pay someone else to do the finishing for things like ornaments. Thank you for all you do and share. (Also, I love when you share about your faith on social media, I know you feel like you get negative feedback about it but I wanted to tell you I always find it so encouraging. I also love seeing you be such a cheerleader for your family. You’re the kind of Mom I want to be one day.) Thank you for all you do and have a blessed Christmas!!!

[@VonnaPfeiffer]

Thank you for your kindness ❤

[@dancingmatildashoes]

Vonna, thank you again for all your hard work to try to teach us how to finish our stitch projects. I so appreciate everything you’re showing us how to do. You’re a very generous person. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. 🙏

[@mariayoung1916]

Thank you for sharing your talents and skills. Your tutorials are awesome.

[@luciabeaumier9738]

Vonna thank you so much for sharing this finish, I love it!

[@marilynkelley3707]

Vonna, thank you so much for all you give us! Please do not let anyone discourage you from being the giving, generous person you are! I have heard you warn viewers not to buy large amounts of the finishing material unless they also own a finishing business. If they choose not to listen, it’s on them. Social media is wonderful, but it’s made some folks think they can post anything, no matter how it sounds. Some of these comments are hurtful, but I hope you don’t take them to heart. You are too good a person to be hurt by random comments. I hope you and your family have a wonderful season celebrating the birth of our Savior.

[@barbarabell6527]

Vonna great video! Thank you so much for so much info. I greatly enjoy learning from you. You are such a treasure. God bless you & have a wonderful holiday!

Thank you Donna, I learn so much from your videos, your work is always so beautiful. Merry Christmas!

[@sewpatty1515]

I am not a good commenter, though I do “Like” but just need to tell you how valuable I have found your videos over the years. I don’t sew, quilt or craft like I did years ago either. New products, new ideas it’s a journey we all learn from each other. Thank you for all you do. Wishing you a very blessed Christmas.❤

[@susiegreer6513]

Love Love your videos. I am a fan and don't always leave a comment. I have learned so much from you and appreciate all that you do. Take care and have a wonderful Christmas🎄

[@ctherrie]

Vonna I have used your tutorials over the years to finish items. Thank you so much for sharing your expertise. Not all of us can afford to send things out. Others just like to learn new things and enjoy the challenge. We are thankful. I was told never to look a gift horse in the mouth. I say to those that can't be nice.....move on and keep it to yourself!

[@sheilalovesgreg3489]

I appreciate you Vonna for sharing your talent and these free video tutorials to help us all do better finishes. Thank you thank you thank you!
