Beautiful block by Anne. All the blocks you have received are beautiful. Your tags are very pretty Sarah. This is such a fun challenge and we all interpret the prompts so differently. Tfs 💞🤗🇨🇦💕

Hi Sarah, I really enjoyed your video. Anne's block is fantastic she is so talented, I loved your tags too. I am doing the 52 tag challenge and I am so enjoying the slow stitching, it is so addictive isn't it? Thank you for sharing, I adore your sisters videos too, you are both so talented. God bless, Lita from South Wales UK. Xx

Love the blocks, and all of your tags...so beautiful! 🤗🥰

[@MelanieSullivan]

Anne's block is beautiful and your collection of blocks look so lovely together! This swap has been so much fun. And your tags, Sarah, I love them! That blue stripe fabric with the pink flower is so vibrant and gorgeous.❤ And I adore your cicada! 🦗 (I'm a hobby entomologist; I find the insect world beyond fascinating. Maybe I need to find those Tim H insect stamps.) And, your fly stitch tag too, just gorgeous. I really like your interpretation of Anne's prompts. ❤ Thank you for sharing all these lovelies with us!

[@roxycreationsbysarah]

Thanks for your lovely words Melanie 💕 this collaboration has be so good 😊

[@cassiegreene9528]

'Lavage' is the French word for washing. Such incredible work! I am amazed. We all used to do embroidery work on our clothes in the 70's (dates me!). So glad it's coming back and better than we did. Very cool. thanks!

[@fayneilly833]

All lovely , I made tags like yours on a round bracelet, 1 to 25 days as an advent Callander 4 years ago I never show any thing as I’m not really good with my iPad. Thanks for showing .

[@tuthillg]

Stunning block from Anne and all are gorgeous! Your tags are so very pretty! TFS the inspiration, Sarah!

[@roxycreationsbysarah]

Her block is So beautiful in real life 😁

[@kerynokeeffe9133]

Both you and Anne do beautiful stitching, Sarah. Love to see your creative touch with the tag challenge! Thank you! 😀

[@roxycreationsbysarah]

Thank Keryn- I think that Anne is the guru 😁

[@jilldavidson2204]

woONDERFUL GOODIES. What you are calling cufflinks are collar studs, used on men's shirts. they had a little button hole on the collar band and they sat under the collar out of sight. THey usually have a solid and not linked stem. You can use them by slow stitching a wee button hole in 2 items and holding them together with a stud. Often they were as beautiful as good cufflinks. I love the bull-rush sort of plants above the buttons on Anne's latest work to you. Also love the variety in your 52tags so far. Stay safe.

[@roxycreationsbysarah]

Good to know. Thanks Jill 😊

[@susiescraftroomandstudio]

Anne did a magnificent job. I can't imagine how amazing it is in person. Your tags are absolutely fabulous. Your stitching is incredible! Blessings and Hugs 🤗

Thanks Susie 💕 it is so beautiful in real life 😊

How wonderful.

[@markparkinson7194]

Love your work. Your tags are awesome just wondering how you were able to stitch on such a small piece of fabric, and add so much detail

[@cheryltallafuss1166]

Oh dear, it is absolutely gorgeous. My sight is really bad since I had Covid. I'm having tests today to see if it's getting worse and if it will continue or they can stop it, or repair what's going on. Thank you for holding it up. These are simply delightful, Rachel. I did order some fabric because I have got Faith lots of it my eyes will be corrected. I love the spring pasted colors if you have one fabric pack created with these colors. I'll be doing the 52 week tag "along" as well.

[@roxycreationsbysarah]

I hope everything has gone well for you and that you are ok!

[@sherryrector2275]

Just beautiful tags. Your creativity is beyond my thinking. 🤔 it must of been passed on to you and Rachel via your Mom. I’d love to see her work sometime.

[@nancynorris9822]

So lovely! You girls all have done excellent work! TFS! And thanks for showing your tags. I'm doing them too, but still need to do #4 and #5. You've given me some more inspiration. It's so fun and I'm learning so much. 🤗 Michigan girl.🇺🇸

[@roxycreationsbysarah]

Thanks Nancy- I love that the tags don’t take too long so it achievable 😁

[@ericastannard2635]

Very pretty! I’m enjoying watching all these videos of Rachel’s & I’m glad you have them, too! It’s all just helping me get some background understanding of the slow-stitching possibilities! Which seem absolutely endless! Still working on the sampler part of the journal, but I’m always kind of like the tortoise, slowly plodding along & hopefully I’ll get there in the end! Thanks so much for all the work you’re putting into the series, & your mom’s work is gorgeous! That bunny is something else!

[@roxycreationsbysarah]

You are right- they are endless. Thanks so much 😊

[@cheryltallafuss1166]

Oh my! Incredible work and yumminess! I love the colors Anne chose. Your tags are lovely...I’m not a fan of big, flying bugs..however your cicada is gorgeous! They’ve just announced that this is the 17th year in the cicadas cycle so they will be erupting from the ground in the Spring. (US) Is it the same for Australia? I am so glad I live in an area they don’t come.🤣. Take care Sarah.🥰❤️
