Very pleased to hear your Dad continues to feel better. This video has so many inspiring creative things to try. Love your idea about the curiosity cabinet. You could also include little bottles and jars with seeds, tiny shells, pieces of lichen, etc. I collect a lot of natural items so I may make one to house and display all my treasures. Thank you for sharing your tips for thread painting. You make it look less intimidating and something I want to try. You are very kind to offer to make some stamped pieces to include in this project. I would love to receive some. I plan to start pulling out fabrics, threads, stamps, inks, etc this weekend and get going on my cover page. I chose my book cover so I know my page size so I have officially started today! Thank you for your videos; you and several other people I follow really add joy to my life💕

Such an exciting project and I love your plans for it. The interactivity of your accordion book sounds so much fun - an invitation to explore and engage with the work. How wonderful to hear of your Dad now wanting to chat and can eat a little. Very positive progress. Thank you for my mention, you are so kind in your support of us all here on KZbin. The little retrospective in my 100 episodes helped me clarify what I value so much in participating in these challenges. Ist it is the togetherness as we all work on the prompts. Next it is the challenge, to try something new, different, potentially out of our comfort zone. Thirdly it is the meaning, the personal connection and expression of ourselves and what we value in our work. These are the things I will be taking with me as I deep dive into the new volume. So looking forward to watching you and others on this journey for the next 6 months. 😊

[@createandcraftwithchristine]

Thank you so much Leanne and what wonderful insights from your retrospective. They resonate a lot with me too. Particularly sitting here on Friday morning before the working day starts, with Travers laid out across my lap on the couch, a cup of coffee by my side and such lovely comments from beautiful people on our community to catch up on and engage with and feel energised and inspired by. Good luck for the draw too 🤗 cheers Christine

Great news re your Dads’ progress!🥰 Christine, you have given me much direction in slow stitching. Unfortunately, I don’t make journals but I love needlework and have been stitching for 50+ years. But I’ve never tried thread painting and I’m fascinated! I will be YouTubing it and researching this way of stitching. Thank you for your time and expertise in this matter❣️

[@createandcraftwithchristine]

Thank you Denise for your kind wishes and how amazing to share a little spark to take you in a new direction with you stitching. There are many versions of thread painting - I haven’t actually seen anyone else doing it with regular sewing cotton but I love the delicate effect. And good luck with the draw. Cheers, Christine

Hello Christine, How wonderful that your Dad is getting better. May that continue to the best on ever single day! Your stitching is so beautiful and the yarn colours so lovely! I enjoyed your video with a hand brewed coffee after my shift. Now I try to clean up my chaos, before I have to sleep early (very early morning shifts those days (around 4:30 am, so alarm at about 2:30, because my dog needs a walk before and I love a calm start into my day without any hectic). Have a lovely week.

Hi, Christine, I am so glad that your Dad is continuing to improve. It's a real good sign that he was able to call you to talk. I know how it is with long hospital/rehab stays. Visits or phone calls with loved ones are greatly appreciated. I have a version of that stamp set from Tim Holtz. The one I have probably only has half the stamps but he included a stencil with it. I'm gonna have to get out some different types of fabric and practice stamping on it. Your projects are starting out beautifully as usual and I'm excited to see what you do next! Have a great remainder of your weekend. TFS 😊

The first forest notes and the second desert notes of Arizona. I have a summer home and a winter home and I split living every six months. The heat in the desert here is so hot in the summer we go north \to the forest for summer. Yes Arizona has forests high in the mountains where it snows and the elevation is 7 k and above and the desert is 2K . Lots of possibilities. I'm excited to get started. I love ,love the way you are doing your stand up accordion stand up. I know your book is going to be lovely . Thank you for all your help. Sincerely🌲🌵😎🌻

LOVE the stamped fabrics! I also like the sort of crinkly look. I also LOVE thread painting! I've tried it myself before and had a realization today while watching you do the thread painting that I was trying to use embroidery floss instead of thread. But it's literally called thread painting! I also do the roxysjournalofstitchery and I have been since the beginning. LOVE your videos.

[@createandcraftwithchristine]

Thanks so much Cher. Using sewing cotton for thread painting is something I haven’t seen anyone else do but I love the effect. But I also enjoy using wools or embroidery cottons or speciality threads. Have fun experimenting. And good luck for the draw 🤗 cheers, Christine

Wonderful news about your dad. Loved watching how the thread painting went, um can see we’re I could be going wrong, my stitches are quite shorter than yours, thread was way thicker and sigh you join your long stitches up and then place another in the middle. Yep think I will have a retry of this wasn’t that happy with my last effort but then again am new to this sort of thing so should make mistakes or as I call them new ways of doing things or better yet inventing stitches. Love the stamped fabrics you have made very fun, me gotta love mushrooms and butterflies are always useful too. Little book is supper cute such a fun way of holding the small material book to the big field notes one. Very relaxing watch and I learnt heaps. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us all. ❤know must try and implement. 🤞

[@createandcraftwithchristine]

Hi dear Paula - I think there are many different approaches to thread painting and my version using sewing cotton is actually something I haven’t seen others do. I use thicker threads and wool too sometimes but I do love the delicate effect of cotton. In terms of the size of stitches I think it depends on the design. If you are going to do longer stitches I suggest an embroidery hoop and backing fabric to avoid puckering the fabric. Have fun and hope you’re doing well. Good luck for the draw 🤗 cheers, Christine 💙

Congratulations on your long service leave and have a most wonderful holiday and stitching time.

Christine, as always your thread painting is beautiful. I’m not sure if I’ll be doing the field notes. I’m always looking for useful things to make, since supplies are precious to me. I may join in if I’m at a loss for a project - which you are never in that category! 😊. One tip for stamping on fabric - if the ink pad is very wet, try stamping off on a paper first. I guess there are two tips - use a solid surface underneath, and press gently. Pressing too hard causes the wet ink to spread. With the stamps you’re using, if you don’t have an acrylic block just press with several fingers gently on the back. Hope that helps. ❤. (I have that set of stamps, they’re perfect for this project).

[@createandcraftwithchristine]

Thanks Martha - I think you could adapt the field notes prompts to a useful project. Fortunately I have a acrylic stamp base and the stamp pads aren’t too wet - I think it’s more that these Timholtz stamps are more spongy feeling than the stamps I have used previously. But think I’ve got them figured out now 🤗

[@rachellee.9389]

LOVE that your dad is feeling noticeably better! I'm reminded that when I had my stroke a few years ago I was conscious pretty much the whole time when I first went into the ER. I remembered being aghast that they cut off my bra because it was one of my faves (I couldn't speak because every time I opened my mouth - or my eyes - I vomited). At the same time, one nurse asked another, "How much do you think she weighs?" Apparently, the other nurse pondered it for a moment before she answered with a weight that was 10 pounds UNDER what I really weighed. I remember smirking in my mind that even tho' I was in the middle of a stroke, I still looked good - LOL!

[@createandcraftwithchristine]

Congratulations Rebecca - you’re one of my winners of my little stamped fabric gift - send me an email at [e-mail] with your preferred stamp colour (black, brown, green or mix) and if you prefer the stamps to be on silk or calico or mix. Plus you postal address. If you can also post below this comment to say you have seen it. Cheers, Christine

Please use [e-mail] as my email - when I first typed it I left out the ‘with Christine’ but by accident!

Hi love everything about your video thanks for sharing, will you be stitching over the inside images in your mini field notes book.

Thanks Kathy - I think I’ll leave the mini stamp book as is but I have fun plans for stitching into some other mini field note books for my upcoming Soring bulbs page. And good luck for the draw 🤗
