[@andreahapgood400]

Thank you....what a calm you exude while doing the slow stitching. Love every video and teaching you give so generously. I feel I have learnt so much in the short time of stumbling across this creative body of work. No turning back for me now, I'm a true believer and quite addicted to the craft of this style of stitching. 💖 And the candle quiet time that completes your presentations is just beautiful and very appreciated.🧵🎨⭐

Hello Janet ❤. I loved your video on making your fabric postcards. I’m going to grab my scraps and start one this evening. You bring me so much joy in what you are working on. You really do motivate me.! But more than that. I love how relaxing your videos are. Your beautiful calming voice and seeing Freddie is my highlight. It just tickles me so much when Ben is with you. The both of you make me laugh. Your house is just filled with love and laughter. Until next video, take good care.💖. Karon

Never saw Freddie so c h i l l, what a funny boy. I just watched a great video on how to deal with embroidery floss and learned that if we pull from the center (NOT the one closest to the label/outside) it "won't get knotted up. I'd put the link here, but YT gets cranky about that...it's by Sarah Homfray Embroidery and it's called "How many strands do I use? Tips on how to use & organise embroidery stranded cotton, floss & threads". I learned so much 🤓 LOVE your postcards, so beautiful 😍

[@winniepeg9869]

Hello Janet. I LOVE your postcards they’re such a fresh idea for using scraps of fabric. Your two tulips are gorgeous. I used the stamens in some hot water to dye some scraps of cross stitch fabric. Gives a beautiful lilac colour. The longer you leave the fabric in the water deeper the colour. Sending my regards. 😊

[@janetnash]

Winnie lovely to see you, thank you so much, I so enjoy creating these little postcards. Your dyed fabric sounds gorgeous. Did you notice the yellow green fabric on the desk ? that was the stamens from my bunch of tulips ( I steamed mine ) Have a wonderful creative week.

I am going to set a couple up to take to the hospital then I will have something to do for the hour wait time before the procedure. Thanks for the idea. Something I have been doing with the small threads and wool, making small balls like beads. You get the threat together into a ball and sew though the ball until it is sturdy. Then when you want to use them for something you just have to draw a thread through as many as you need. Would make a cool galena for Christmas or when ever. even to decorate your garden. Have the best day. Bye Janet Flo Jennifer and good old Freddie from Canada.

[@janetnash]

Oh a Janet I do hope all went well ( it’s always a help to have a little stitching whilst waiting isn’t it. Oh little thread beads I absolutely love that idea thank you so much. 🩵

[@janetburgess5781]

@@janetnash Well Janet I didn't get any ready. We had a storm here and the lights went out so I went to bed. I did have the procedure and I have a 2cm mas and a baby mass. This means it is spreading but how fast we need to do more test. May 23rd I go in to have the cancer dug out they will test it to see how aggressive it is and go from there. I am sure all will be well. Say hi to Flo Jennifer and Freddie. Stay well I saw the thread beads from someones you tube maybe Marien's. I don't remember.
