Love these! Very informative video. I’ll be making one for sure, maybe 2, maybe…? 😂

[@EleanorGraceEmbroidery]

Thank you Linda ♥️ I find they tend to spread and have Suffolk Puff babies before I know it!

Thank you, I need to start a batch.

[@EleanorGraceEmbroidery]

Enjoy! 😊

[@EleanorGraceEmbroidery]

Apologies for dropping the camera part-way through and knocking out the alignment! At some time I'll re-record this one! 😂

Here in the USA, I always worked on the outside of the circle. Sometimes I have folded over a tiny edge so I had a smooth gathering of the circle. I guess it all depends on personal preference and regional tastes. Thanks for sharing your technique.

[@EleanorGraceEmbroidery]

Thank you! For my version, I'm going with the Suffolk Puff version, and a slow stitch non-perfectionist vibe, which is hard, as I'm a perfectionist at heart!

[@stoneymonte5333]

@@EleanorGraceEmbroidery I understand the perfectionist point of view. It has messed me up most of my life......

[@EleanorGraceEmbroidery]

​@stoneymonte5333 I'm the same, slow stitching has been such a release for me!

[@Sandie1508]

These are beautiful Louise, I'm going to be making some this week, based on your technique. Thank you ❤

[@EleanorGraceEmbroidery]

​@Sandie1508 Thank you Sandie, enjoy! Look forward to seeing the results ❤

[@zahrareaume]

I have made a bunch of these in different sizes. I don't do the small ones because they are too fiddly for my hands but I have some that are the size of the palm of my hand.

[@EleanorGraceEmbroidery]

The wonderful thing is that you can make them any size ❤️

[@jacquelinewhittaker4651]

Even professional cameramen and women on Gardeners World, sometimes allow the action to drop off screen. We see a smiling Monty Don or Rachel smiling back at us, describing what their hands are doing ....off camera. It's a mystery!😂😊

[@EleanorGraceEmbroidery]

Thank you so much Jacqueline for your kind words ❤️ and I love Gardener's World too!

[@ltilley7343]

I'm new to slow stitching. Can you finish off on the back side if you are going to stitch them to something because it won't show?

[@EleanorGraceEmbroidery]

Yes, you could do, I tend to finish them as normal and then stitch them on. You could knot them off and leave the thread attached and stitch straight onto your piece 😊

[@Susie-se4mv]

It’s a shame you’re a bit off camera

[@EleanorGraceEmbroidery]

At times it can be hard to see clearly as you film, but I'm looking into some new kit, which will hopefully help.
