Sewing Journal No.2 Jan 2018 Giveaway Now Closed

[@catherinebrown5476]

Just stunning in every way. I knew I would love it because I find all Jibid's work utterly inspiring... but this seems to speak to my soul. I cried all the way through the video at its sheer beauty but also it captures so many cadences of my childhood and life. The coincidences are amazing. My grandmother met Beatrix Pottet and visited the Lake District often. She read all the stories to me and Tom kitten was my favourite. She taught me to sew, knit and embroider and I have an embroidered lady very similar to the one in the book. She kept a book with fabric and lace off cuts too. Forget-me -knot blue waas her favourite colour too. But what I love most about this is the clarity of vision, the sheer care, passion and joy in every careful stitch. To have something so precious is an unbelievable privilege and it will be treasured always. Heartfelt thanks.xx

[@jibidneary2212]

Catherine Brown you are are such a treasure yourself catherine, it was my privelage to be part of your journey into your childhood, and i thank you for that. I so love that Tom Kitten is your favourite! We used to read that one so often, as you can imagine with four boys, i think they identified a lot with tom ;) sending hugs, jibid xXx

[@gailstubbings8606]

X. Sailor, young man who other than serving the captain doesn't know where exactly he belongs and is finding himself from port to port. You have created another beautiful journal absolutely mind blowing again huni. Shame you tube doesn't have a love button. Xx

[@amitybloom159]

Oh. my goodness! This came up as soon as I opened KZbin and oh my gosh I am in awe! You create magic with fabric and thread Jibid - SO incredibly inspiring! Okay I'm going to finish watching now ☺️ I couldn't wait until the end to tell you how amazingly talented you are my sweet friend xoxo! Btw - I could hear your voice and watch you describe your work ALL DAY :) sometimes when I come home from school I love relaxing by re-watching your videos to a cup of tea ❤️

[@annecrump3352]

[@nancyorourke7679]

Love her too Amity!! I am taking part in your classes and love your work so much as well!

Amity, Nik and Jibid...how lucky are we? Thank you all for the inspiration....please keep it going, we are out here enjoying!! Nancy =^.^=

[@jibidneary2212]

Amity Bloom thankyou so much sweetie pie, that means a lot to me x

[@jeanneblondewomanstamping9788]

Snippet roll is amazing! .... This journal is soooooooo amazing. Every single page is a delight. 😍

[@hummingbirdtales2747]

I absolutely love all of your work jibed and I wish I could come up with all of the unique ideas that you do. Maybe that comes with time spent with creating???? I love listening to all of your stories that you tell not only by speaking them but with your journals speaking them!!!! I’m just so glad that we all have the privilege to see your beautiful work!!! Thankyou !!!! X Anyway, I’d love to see a scene of a dewy early morning, after the rain has fallen at night where there are jewels of raindrops on eg, a spiders web. I’ve always found that kind of moment so magical 😊

[@karlafrizzelle4794]

X - You are just AMAZING Jibid - LIGHTHOUSES...and the stories around some of the history of the oldest ones in the world....I love anything about the Sea...

[@GmaReezScrapShack]

X ... i would love to see you make a junk journal about vintage ladybugs... maybe in the hues of pink and brown only. Jibid you are incredible. your journals always leave me speechless! ;0) just amazing! LUVnHUGZ, Rita

[@shelbyd4854]

X - Wizard of oz type, lions and tigers and bears oh my. A play off that would be so neat to see! 😍 I adore your work and your peaceful vibes, I could watch your videos all day if I were able. 💛

[@angelasweby3991]

X!!!!! What an amazing journal, Jibid! Lucky Catherine to have such a priceless heirloom. My mother and her unmarried sister who lived with us all through our childhood were both seamstresses so the notions, dress forms, pattern papers and vintage sewing images take me right back to my childhood. I can smell the cottons and fabric dust even now. If you were ever to be shipwrecked on a desert island, you would need nothing more than this journal which, of course, you would have held high above the waves as you swam, one handed, towards the shore. For contained within are your thread tails, needles, buttons and scissors so you could clothe yourself and any other island inhabitants in wonderful, colourful creations. When not stitching, you could fill the pages with all the exciting adventures you get up to whilst waiting to be rescued and you could wile away the evenings feeding your soul with uplifting quotations. And on the subject of feeding, you could gorge yourself everyday on coconuts, bananas berries and nuts. Even if you put on a little bit of weight, you would never know because after all, you only tiny snippets of tape measures :-) In fact, if you see a passing ship, wave it on. Who wants rescuing when you are having such an idyllic time....haha!!

[@jibidneary2212]

Angela Sweby haha angela, that sounds wonderful! The thought of a desert island is very appealing at times ;) X

[@MrsCog]

This is fabulous Jibid! I LOVE the snippets along the page edges... I've begun snippet rolls (to wind around big wooden spools) for my daughters for next Christmas, but using them in journals is brilliant. So many pretty and inspiring ideas you have, thank you so much for taking the time and effort to show and explain your creations. Hugs! Liz :-)

[@jibidneary2212]

Mrs Cog that is a sweet idea, i appreciate your commenting liz, thankyou x

[@sylviagarza9696]

[@marylund6850]

X - omg, how generous of you! The sewing journal is stunning. Theme ideas: fantasy/dragons and pearls, rags to riches, wandering musician, or maybe a long distance relationship/love letters journal (valentines day?!). But everything you make is absolutely amazing and original and inspiring. I'm always so happy to see when you've posted a video. I hope you never stop--I'll never stop watching! :D

Both my grandmother and my mom were talented seamstresses. I love every single detail and applaud your talent. Thanks so much for the inspiration.

[@charliedale3029]

OMG, loving the snippet roll. Very clever idea and the uses for this endless. You've given me something new try and I can't wait to try it and see what I make. My god the needlebook section is museum quality artwork. Simply gorgeous, and the use of the fabric is brilliant. The old laces are beautiful, the use of snippets is very generous, and all the little extras you put in this are a true gift from the heart.

[@debbyr3559]

X - absolutely love seeing your creations Jibid, my favourites have been nature, woodland, and your shire themes - perhaps a Nordic, or gnomes theme?

[@carolburland2863]

X, YOUR WORK IS VERY SPECIAL!!!, I LOVE WATCHING YOU

[@leguin1572]

X (No one can tell how much courage I paid to put this 'X' here.) I can't stop gazing, staring at every video of yours, and adoring your journals, Jibid. re: the journal theme: your imaginal King Arthur's era, when the history and myth faded into each other. Warm regards.

[@jibidneary2212]

guin le i appreciate it a lot, thankyou guin x

[@tamaraberrett3484]

X - Love vintage sewing journals or a mermaid/ocean theme....like you've been doing. Love the idea for snippet rolls. TFS

[@michelleanne9530]

My mother was also a seamstress. She made lovely children's clothing and was hired locally to make suits and dresses in children's sizes. I remember the fabric, thread, various notions on the table and work station. My mother used a Necchi which I still have. Your gorgeous journal was a step back in time for me, remembering my mother and her skill. She also made lovely doll clothes for my Ginny dolls. I miss those days and the comfort of my mom's presence. Your journal brought that all back in the most heartfelt ways.

[@tanafoster5176]

Gorgeous, Jibid! My daughter would love this as well, as she sew a lot. Thank you for sharing!

[@jibidneary2212]

Tana Foster My pleasure tana, thankyou x

[@bettyjones37]

[@katebrammer7961]

X Vintage farm/circus/children & toys. Anything you make is magical Jibid, I am in awe of you. You are the reason I have a little pile of hand-made journals, no where near your talent but as a late starter at 59 years of age I have found a hobby that makes me extremely happy and something my 9 year old grand-daughter is loving to do too - thank-you.

[@jibidneary2212]

Kate Brammer that is lovely, thankyou kate x

[@ttsodyssey9509]

X. I love this journal so much, I keep watching this video over and over for the details. Your journal and embellishment creations are amazing! I want to entertain the thought that someday you might be inspired to create a Greek travel journal. I would love hues of blue and gold with hints of colour. Dreaming of it one day.........😀.

[@lindadonald5905]

Jibid, now that I've watched the entire video, I just wanted to say that this journal is exquisitely beautiful. I love the snipet montage theme throughout! The little embroidered girl reminded me of my grandmother who made quilts with little girls in bonnets back in the '60s.

[@jan3451]

X I’ve just recently discovered your channel, your work is simply stunning! I’ve not gotten very far through the available videos so I’m not certain that you haven’t done books on the subjects I thought would be wonderful for your creativity, but “trees” and “doorways/windows” come to my mind...I suspect your hands addressing these topics would make amazing pieces of work! Thank you ever so much for sharing your work...you truly inspire so many of us.

[@valeriejohnson2367]

X. oh my, i just found you and love your vintage work. cant wait to see more. I read some of your followers comments and really like the “abandoned or haunted house journal..... Just when you think you’re seen everything....snippets!

XXXXXXX - of course! How about Hungarian embroidery as a theme? I love the bold colours and I'm sure you would do amazing things. It woudl remind me of my childhood, visiting family there. Jibid - please, never apologise for a full book - it has so many creative ideas in it, I could watch all day. Thanks for sharing your brilliant ideas.

[@bexw2299]

‘X’ . Beautiful sewing book. You are an inspiration Jibid, I would love to see a shoemakers theme, as my Great grand father and other family members down the family line were shoemakers. Thank you for recording your beautiful work.

[@FinallyCrafting]

X - silk and pearls? Love those together ;) another gorgeous gorgeous creation from you! My grandmother was also a seamstress and made lots of clothes for my dolls- I still have them and most of them brings back memories because they're made out of scraps of fabrics that she'd used to make clothes for herself and myself as well :) even the buttons makes me think of a certain clothing she used to wear. She also had a large floor loom and I used to help her cut strips of fabric- oh my gosh how those fibers tickled me in my nose! I'm sorry for the rambling! Just brought back so many memories.. :)

[@jibidneary2212]

I love sea, countryside live, cats, herbarium, nature, birds, butterflies sawing,...all what artsy friends mentioned below... what I would like to see something what I also love- English countryside....something typical from each corner of England (I am foreigner and I remember still living back home during childhood I loved watching documentaries about English countryside and traditions ). And maybe what could be interesting to see something about cooking, baking, canning, gardening ... and one more...history of fashion in past centuries could be interesting too.

[@roseslacenlaughter7513]

I am new to watching your channel, and have on a watching binge of a video or two for the last week or so. I would like to suggest a theme, though it might not be something that most people do not relate to or enjoy. But I used to, when I was younger...in my thirties, and more able bodied. Wild caving. Not tourist attraction caving, but caves out in the woods that haven't been seen by many. I used to enjoy it with my late husband and a few well chosen friends. It is a completely different experience then tourist cave walks, with lots of crawling, climbing over breakdown and rappelling.

[@TracieFoxCreative]

Jibid, It gets more and more difficult to comment on your work and it seems to just become more and more wonderful. This is absolutely stunning and the detail is just exquisite. Thank you so much for sharing and inspiring and also for the mention :-D xxx Lots of love to you xxx
