Foolproof Flower Embroidery

[@CraftyLinnieP]

Thank you Jennifer. Your video was great. I really liked the close up shots. It was easy to see how you were doing the stitches. We girls here in the U.S. would really love to take a class with you in person. Since that is not possible your videos,along with your flower book, is giving us a chance to learn from you. I think I can speak for all of us when I tell you that we appreciate you very much. Linda 🪡🧵🙂🙂🙂

[@jenniferclouston7545]

Thank you, Linda. its been a big learning curve! x

[@Kiwiford2]

I've learnt so much from this video. I've been doing my 15 minutes a day. Not good enough to share. But it's a new week and I'll start again with the knowledge I gained from this video. 🎉 Thank you so much Jennifer 💓

[@kathyatria]

Love your work and commentary. Like you, I'm learning to put on a timer. I hate that I'm getting arthritis in my hands because I love to embroider. I agree with the placement of your branch.

Loving today don't worry about centre business.. love the short utubes the long ones become boring you have it just right ..im growing in my work ❤

[@jenniferclouston7545]

Thanks Denny XXX

[@carolinsocal5139]

Oh thank you, Jennifer. I bet if we took a survey 2 months from now on, which of our embroidery books was the most dog-eared, it would be, hands down, your flower book!

[@jenniferclouston7545]

Thank you, Carolin! When I was writing that book i stressed that it would not do very well. It is so good that it has proved useful to stitchers out there. x

[@jennypops02may]

You are never boring, we love your chatter and the bird’s singing is beautiful. Thank you for showing us your dead tree! It’s so interesting watching how it evolves and the stitches you use. You explain the stitches so well. Lots more please. Xx

[@jenniferclouston7545]

Hahah - my dead tree is going to get a few leaves soon leaves 🍁

[@jaynecoin9805]

You are so right the other videos I watch are not as informative as yours and last over an hour. Too long for me,I quit watching them. Your videos are the best.

[@jenniferclouston7545]

Wow, thank you, Jayne

[@TJTimberhurst]

I love your snippet videos Jennifer. I learn so much. A lot of people struggle to stay in the middle of the screen, but that’s ok. Your creative enthusiasm is so much fun to watch. Don’t feel pressured to do long videos, do you. I would love to be able to take a class with you, however, being in the UK makes that impossible so these snippets are wonderful and I am very grateful, thank you so much for sharing your time and experience. I have your books which are fantastic but these snippets bring everything to life. Cx

Thanks Lisa - that books was a bit stressful for me - I wasn't sure if i was on the right track or not with it. :)

[@lisamoseley9914]

You're too much of a perfectionist with the video worries! It was just fine! Even Rachel and Corrine slide off camera every so often. We don't mind at all! We're just happy to get a glimpse of all your creative minds. 🤗😁

[@suebulford]

Hi Jennifer your tree is looking good, amazing what can be achieved by just a simple little twitch to a couching stitch Think you are doing a good job with your videos, there would be lots to think about when making one. Have a fantastic weekend and the lorikeets sound is just the best ❤

[@jenniferclouston7545]

Oh thank you, Sue x

[@carolreid9755]

Thank you Jennifer for the video. This has been so useful in seeing how to use coughing to add these random twigs on the tree. I have found some old iron on embroidery patterns in a box of my mother's sewing bits. Yes old fashioned but a couple of really nice basic scenery prints that I was thinking could be enhanced . I am going to use them as a practice stitch library and turn them into slow stitching pieces of work. First up is one with a tree,so you can guess what I will be adding.

[@jenniferclouston7545]

Hi Carol, that is a great idea! I do that quite often in my workshops. Happy stitching!

How easily you break down the stitches, Jennifer - thank you! And you did just fine staying in the center of the screen; it does become muscle memory after a while. Embrace the awkward and unfortunate - my new motto!!!

I’m just glad that you’re doing the videos. Thank you. You and Corrine are my motivation…..even though at this point I’m afraid to cut in to a piece of fabric because when I do so it’ll mean that I have to “start”.

[@jenniferclouston7545]

Hi Paula, starting is the best part - just simply cut into those fabrics, I dare you!

[@christinedempsey4151]

Another wonderful video Jennifer. I’ve actually been trying to do my first ‘daily stream of consciousness’ this afternoon! Just love your tree and the stitches used to make it old and gnarled. I love slow stitching and will use this technique in my next piece. Also do you ever use linen thread? Many thanks. Chris x

[@jenniferclouston7545]

Hi Christine, yes, I use whatever is on hand. The stream of consciousness is so rewarding.

[@lindak7499]

I think the video turned out fine. I was able to see your stitch placement with the close up shots (which I personally like most of the time). Yes in a few spots it could have been a bit more focused, but that will come with practice. I bet you tell your students that too!! Thanks

[@jenniferclouston7545]

Hi Linda, thank you - I will attempt to improve :)
