Winter Wreath Embroidery - Bringing the Background to Life

[@annrubino6252]

I love this wreath just as it is but I say that with everything you do and then I'm blown away with the fascinating finish. Looking forward to the Hellebore flowers, which I have never seen. The larch branches are my favourite part and I am gobsmacked with all of your artistry. Thank you again Marion.

[@wellywood3792]

An avid viewer of all your lovely makes, I thought it was about time I took courage and made a comment. This is beautiful and my fingers are itching to get started. I was so hoping you'd make a book of moths, they were enchanting. Thank you for all the joy you bring Marion.

This is gorgeous, Marion! Thank you for sharing your amazing work with us.

[@kellypeters8330]

[@lindamiller6200]

Marion, your videos encourage me so much, thank you.

[@BobbiKolllhoff]

Thanks, Marion

[@collenrose3957]

Marion, I have enjoyed seeing each beautiful page you have done. I've learned some new stitches from you & some very helpful tips on shading. I can't wait to see what you come up with next. Have a blessed day 🌈💛🙏💛🌈

[@DinekeJones]

Wow your wreath is looking great

[@paulineshelley4421]

I love your stitch journals! They never cease to amaze me with the variety of designs and stitches. I hope your new idea for next year is as good! I’m sure it will be. 😊

[@debbytowers6416]

Absolutely gorgeous stitching as usual. Looking forward to seeing the book finished and the advent diary beginning 👏 so excited ❤ xxx

[@pattijacobs1]

I’m usually stumped with satin stitch and it gets “out of whack”, but watching you do it and how you do some compensating stitches makes all the difference! Thanks so much for all you share with us!💞

[@gillianpayne374]

Thank you Marion. A really beautiful Christmasy embroidery. The holly leaves especially came out lovely. Looking forward to seeing the hellebore flower heads. ❤😊

[@ConnieShoemaker]

So pretty so far 🥰

[@pamgrover9910]

Another beautiful piece thanks for sharing your talents ❤️❤️❤️

[@joanieann6179]

Once again, such a good lesson that taught me a lot! Thank you Marion! Louise

[@cathiapizetta4957]

The wreath is coming along so nicely! Looking forward for all being finished! Thank you for sharing!❤

[@susandeveaux4117]

I’ve been watching you since the beginning & you are a treasure! 🩷💜💙

[@sureed1157]

I really love this, such a pretty winter wreath, and I really love Hellebores too. I can’t wait for your advent diary - Marion’s world every day, so exciting!

[@BB-sk9hf]

I learnt so many things in this video, Marion, thank you ❤ I especially love the tip to separate the strands of cotton out then put them back together - will try that, Beth x

[@katybohnsack2878]

Marion, Your understanding of nature and your ability to colors so really see the difference of each leaf. You are amazing.

[@JoanneTorgersen]

Oh Marion, you're such a tease! Just love how the wreath has come alive with your amazing skills! Hope you had a wonderful visit with your daughter! Happy Day! ❤❤❤❤

[@EleanorCornford]

Lovely winter wreath, nice graphic quality to the design. . Exciting news about your coming reveal of the project for next year, can’t wait to find out what’s planned. Glad your daughter was able to come over for a visit with you.

[@napkindoll]

Beautiful embroidery. So looking forward to spending the holiday season with you. I’ll be watching every day of advent.

[@janicelivingstone7047]

Your wreath looks amazing. You are so talented!

[@gailreece9670]

This wreath is simple but oh so gorgeous ❤

[@eileenlittlefair1997]

Hi Marion, that is looking really beautiful ! I love it when you introduce different shades of thread and the little leaves just come to life ! Like painting : ) Thankyou

[@fionahaigh708]

Thank you Marion for the advice to always work from the middle of leaves and petals, great help to embroidery novices like myself. The wreath is looking wonderful, all the wintery green colours💚

[@ollyjaymatthews2698]

Lovely Marion, the depth of the different leaves and shades throughout the wreath

[@elainebramson7042]

That is going to turn out beautiful. I will try to catch up again and be ready to go for the flowers. I'll do my best to get colors close to yours. I don't have any shiny threads but I will combine colors. Ohhh I loved the stitch journal but I trust you to be another great challenge! And can't wait for advent 🎄 goodies as well. I've never done any. 👏 tomorrow is our Thanksgiving Day, but I wish you all the blessings and hoping you have enjoyed your visit with your daughter. ❤

[@katetreick]

I am SO excited about an advent journal!!

[@paulinedonnelly6077]

Hi Marion, your foliage & flowers are always so life-like xx I have hellebores growing, but I could never emulate stitching the leaves or flowers, your leaves look perfect, I can't wait to see the flowers stitched 😍😍 I am definitely going to do this wreath, I have to dig some wire out xx I will re-watch your videos xx Ooooh, can't wait for your 'teaser' xx TFS XXX Love & hugs from OZ 🇦🇺😎😍

[@lesahanners5057]

How lovely this is coming along, it really evokes the beauty of the plants you have chosen. I used to have hellebores in one of my gardens and think I shall try to grow some here, as deer do not like them. My grandma called hellebores, Lenton Roses, tho I never knew why?! We had holly tree's in our yard as a kid and our big rabbit got out of his cage and decided to live under one of them. We couldn't catch him because of the prickles, so he lived under it for years, even in winter when the deep snows came. Thank you for another wonderful stitching time Marion. I hope you have a lovely day. 😊❤ p.s. Today is the annivesary of my son Matthew's death, and I wasn't going to get on youtube today at all. Then I remembered your stitching and I changed my mind. I am so glad I did. Thank you for sharing your time with us, it surely eases the sorrow of my heart. 😊❤

[@lorali9669]

❤️‍🩹❤️

[@juttaoden6196]

So sorry ❤

[@gayeelder8255]

The needles are wonderful, and unlike what I'm familiar with as we don't have larch here and our pines are a southern long leaf variety. I love learning how different our flora and fauna are. You provide me with lots of new knowledge. Even the ivy leaves are much fatter here!😊

[@SallyPleming]

I’m really looking forward to the advent videos and can’t wait to find out what you have in mind for next year- it will fabulous whatever it is.❤

[@maricarmenillanm7170]

Deseando que llegue el día 8!!, hermoso bordado, gracias!!

[@joykeating7342]

Thank you Marion very interesting how all the greenery is coming to life! Looking forward to all those ideas you are keeping secret!!!❤

[@paulalister80]

Looks lovely looking forward to next instalment. Your book will look wonderful when you are finished and will be a delight to flick through when you’re wanting to relax with a lovely cuppa tea. ☕️

[@marionsworld24]

I hope so..

[@BusyBethansAllotmentPlot]

Lovely Marion thank you. Looking forward to seeing it finished. Also looking forward to the advent diary and finding out about next years project 😊

[@juttaoden6196]

I am very much looking forward to the Advent diary!!! I love that time of the year. And I wonder what that new project for next year will be.😊 Thanks again for a nice tutorial! Jutta / USA 🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲❤❤❤

[@ChristineRodgers-u8t]

I love your wreath, can't wait to see what you have in mind for Advent.

[@theagraceful]

Oh so lovely...

[@pamfrank3962]

Beautiful 😍

[@RebeccaAinsworth-o9h]

Wonderful as always Marion, but I'm very much looking forward to your advent and so excited at the thought of next year and what our project might be. Thank you, thank you.❤

[@inipin510]

This is wonderful, over the holidays I will snitch the embroidery stuff from my daughter and give it a try… 👏🏻👏🏻😃😃 with starting the phenomenalwheel ( I always forget the right word) in january I will get really busy 👏🏻🫶🏼😄 love your calm voice and that there is NO music in the background. Wish you all the best dear Marion ❤

[@ConniePloch]

Always a nice visit with you and your amazing talent. Tomorrow is Thanksgiving here in the USA, so best wishes and many thanks for sharing and letting all of us into your creative world. 😊

[@marykendrick825]

It looks so pretty and as ive said before you do it all withvsuch ease

[@liisliis9106]

beautiful work!

[@melissataylor5494]

Exquisite, my favorite is the little bunch of needles next to the Larch. You really captured the essence of the needles. The Holly and Hellebore leaves are great. I’m going to give the two color threading and shading a try. Hope you had lots of fun with your daughter.

[@marionsworld24]

It was so lovely to have her here at home!

[@jacquelineknox1977]

Your wreath looks so beautiful. The addition of the holly and hellebore leaves and the addition to the larch are just so realistic and lovely. I wondered why you did a double running stitch instead of doing backstitch? Is there a reason in the appearance or thickness? I am so looking forward to beginning this diary next year. xx

[@SierraNovemberKilo]

Oh you tease, you tease 😂. I'm really excited about this current page and the stump work flowers to come. I'm so glad I found your channel as I'm learning so much. I'm far behind with projects yo complete but it doesnt matter. I've accomplished more this year than I ever remember doing before. Your work is beautiful to behold both in progress and completed. Thank you. 🎉

[@marionsworld24]

Thank you!

[@RedKittieKat]

Any chance you could do a video every day? LOL😁(I kid) but I do miss you when you are away. I was so happy to see this today. I may never embroider .. but I love watching you and seeing what you come up with. 🥰

[@susanmusgrave483]

It is so pretty!!! Tomorrow will be Thanksgiving here. Thankful for you! ❤️

[@marionsworld24]

Happy Thanksgiving Susan..

[@88BlueLadyM88]

❤❤❤

[@jackiedrew6084]

The wreath is looking lovely 😊 Can I ask what the pen is please Marion that you use on the fabric?

[@LouiseTichenor]

You should put some red berries in amongst the leaves

[@audreylittlewood1313]

Hello Marion, first time subscriber here. I am loving your wreath, it's coming along nicely and I can't wait to see the flower stump work!

[@marionsworld24]

Welcome to my channel Audrey. I'm so glad you like it and hope you enjoy having a look around to see what else I've done...

[@TrishaBonser]

Looking lovely as usual Marion, where do you get your embroidery needles from please, I seem to only find the blunt needles with the big eyes. Many thanks Trish

[@marionsworld24]

Oh I haven't bought needles for many years I'm afraid. I have so many old packets of needles that I think I've an endless supply! Crewel needles usually have a big eye and a sharp point. Have a look for them..

[@TrishaBonser]

@marionsworld24 thanks I will, just seems to be the blunt ones available know, probably health and safety 🥺 life is So different know. I'll have a look. Many thanks and looking forward to the advent calendar. Take care Marion.... Trish

[@emilyallen8436]

I don't know why I think I can't use more than 2 stands at a time and MUST stuff as many individual, intricate stitches as I possibly can in a piece or there's no point. Then, because of that, I don't get anything done. I psych myself out A LOT in my creative work (and in my general life 😅). I really need to chill out. 😊😅

[@marionsworld24]

I know where you're coming from Emily. I quite often stitch with just one strand... but then again if you have a large area to fill in and all your threads are going to lie nicely then using more will be just as lovely.. It's a perfect example of why recombining threads works so much better than just separating them as a clump of threads.
