Snippets of my stitching life

Hi Peeps
Time to add the little zipper pull/fob!
I know there are some of you who enjoy the birds so I added an extra video at the end!
Happy stitching!

[@judymarkel8029]

I have never seen a tulip like that. So sweet. I will need to make one too. I love visiting your garden. So beautiful and colorful. Love the bird songs

[@jenniferclouston7545]

Thanks, Judy! I do so love the birdsong!

[@carolreid9755]

Thank you for your video Jennifer ,the information for the fob and the whole experience of this project.. I can't believe I have completed mine and I love it. I usually say my home made stuff is not that good. This is so different. I feel a bit boastful that I am so pleased with it. I can't believe it is all hand stitched. My friend wAnts me to make her one. I have sent her to your videos, may get another crafter going. Thank you also for the lovely views of your garden. In the meantime may I wish you and your family a very happy festive time in however you celebrate it. I hope 2024 brings more lovely snippets from your lovely garden.

[@debzehr3244]

This tulip is delightful. I’m off to make one. 😊. Thank you. 💖💖💖

[@susanh3746]

Jennifer, thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and process through your morning snippets. I have just recently discovered your videos, have binge watched all of them and they are much appreciated. I have all three of your books and am anxiously awaiting the fourth. I live in the United States so unfortunately won't have an opportunity to sit in one of your classes. You are such an inspiration. I hope you will continue to inspire us through your videos. Thank you again.

What a beautiful garden. I expected to see the lizard !,

[@joannebunton]

It turned out lovely.

[@crazy4doxies440]

No wonder you work outside. What a glorious view and environment. I love how the bag turned out. I’m thinking I’ll make one now. It is so darling and my favorite part is the silk ribbon flowers.

[@mooman351]

Thank you, all the best for Christmas and the New Year ❤🎉

Great idea

[@dennypondaview]

Thankyou it's ingenious ❤

[@pattyshort2977]

Jennifer; Love, Love your videos and the peacefulness of your garden. I have looked though your Foolproof Crazy Quilting several times. I tried quilting where you just sew the pieces together, but it does not hold my interest. My favorite is the pink quilt in the back of the book and I believe that you showed it in one of your videos. I would love to try quilting one of these for my granddaughter to put in her hope chest. If you can show it again or let us know who to secure the pattern from you I would so much appreciate it. Please keep your videos going you are a great teacher and love that you call us your peeps.

[@junimondin]

I love your project ❤

[@jenniferclouston7545]

Thank you, Juni!

[@claudiaforrest6669]

My dear Jennifer I just completed my little bag and it’s absolutely precious! I can’t wait for friends at guild to see it so I can share your videos with them. This darling bag will always connect me to you. Merry Christmas!

[@jenniferclouston7545]

Oh Claudia, THANK YOU! I would so love to see a photo of it. Xxxx

[@SimoneBonner-f8v]

Thank you Jennifer, my starter pack arrived this morning…absolutely beautiful…I don’t want to use them as they look so gorgeous in the pack! - however I will. Love your videos of your garden…I’m intrigued to know what butcher birds look like and bush turkeys ❤

[@jenniferclouston7545]

Hi Simone I am pleased that you like the pack. Please enjoy them! What project will you use them on? I am curious! Do you need my help at all? 🐦‍⬛🪡🐦‍⬛🪡

[@SimoneBonner-f8v]

@@jenniferclouston7545 hi Jennifer, I’ve made my own hexagon template and have started making two zip up bags in the style of yours in your videos. I’m in the process of embroidering them now. I’m making them for my daughters. I’ve never quilted before so this is new thing for me. I now have 3 of your books and your new book should arrive by the weekend. I’m loving the process and the new style of embroidery I’ve undertaken. Oh and I love using a milliners #3 needle. I have at last found the perfect needle (it had to be a John James - good needles but when I need to buy more it will be a Borin). Thank you Jennifer for bringing new inspiration into my life 👍

[@SimoneBonner-f8v]

Ps thank you for your offer of help..I will certainly ask for it should I get stuck x

[@jenniferclouston7545]

[@meganhuffmanwrites]

Jennifer, I recently found your channel and have tumbled down into the delightful world of stitchery books, crazy quits, slow stitching, and embroidery. I am now quite excited to recycle many of my scraps and bits and bobs from over the years and make them into something beautiful and meaningful. On a personal note, I just had to say goodbye to my beloved cat Thumbelina (a polydactyl Japanese Bobtail) of 19 years two days ago. She was amazing and delightful and so very sweet. It has been so difficult for me to grieve her loss well, but your videos and turning my attention to making something beautiful with my own snippets are helping. Thank you so much for your encouragement, advice, and inspiration.

[@franwilson9324]

That came out so beautifully. Thank you Jennifer for taking us along as you worked this project. I have been fascinated! I always wanted to know how those little fobs were done. Lovely garden! I so enjoy the birds, ours have mostly gone south for the winter.

[@pamistyle]

Hi jennifer - I hope you are doing fine! Missing you, the birds and your stitching a lot!!! Hope you´ll be back soon!

[@willowhilldesigns7]

What a cute fob! TFS!

[@jenniferclouston7545]

Pleasure!!

[@jill2seeall]

Where is pattern for bag

[@jenniferclouston7545]

Hi Jill, there is no “pattern” for the bag. Please see previous videos for the construction. 🐦‍⬛🪡🐦‍⬛🪡

[@jenniferclouston7545]

Hi Jill, your comment on my KZbin channel asking about the pattern has been on my mind for quite a while. I was wondering why you think it’s ok to be so rude in a comment - no please, hi etc. Also, once I replied to your comment you chose not to say thank you. This video and project cost you nothing, the least you can be is polite.

[@jill2seeall]

@@jenniferclouston7545 my deepest apologies I thought you would sell the pattern. You directed me to look back at old videos. Life got busy

[@jenniferclouston7545]
