The Very First LELA BOUTIQUE Unboxing from Secret Stitch!

[@heidiyazwa8315]

Love this box! The fabric is sooo sweet with all the little hearts. Love the colors. Had fun watching the squirrels behind you playing on the tree and the ground. Getting bird feeder scraps. ♥️your moment of joy is so cool. A space for your little special things. Today my warm pjs are bringing me joy. I don’t want to get moving and get into some things that I can actually go into the public wearing. But I must.

[@gloriavelebir9335]

Your presentation of the fabric today was perfect. There was a lot of red, but it is a Valentine’s themed box. I enjoyed this box opening. ❤

[@rachelburgener819]

Good Monday morning, as I’m behind the times… I think you’re really going to enjoy this new subscription!!! Very pretty fabric and patterns. Lunch with your son🥰 Your hair looks great this way! Joy: that corkboard is a winner❤️ X n O 🥰❤️😀

[@sarahhowland2957]

I'm not much of a fan of themed fabric, but I love this collection. The flowers look like cosmos to me. Partial opening of fabric works well for most fabrics. EnJOY your lunch!

[@karlettamyers2133]

I love the hearts. My favorite quilting pattern is hearts. I doddle hearts. I like how you are opening the fabric. Thanks for sticking to your ideals. I enjoy the safe place.

[@jacquelinegranger5182]

So great that there are new boxes to explore! Pretty fabric & a nice pillow pattern as well as cute notions for the theme. Looking forward to seeing future boxes, so thanks for showing them! In answer to your question about showing fabric, I love that you show each individual piece, but I don't need you to open them all up to their fullest size (unless it's a panel!). ♥

[@cmauers1]

Love that you continue to make videos, it’s the first thing I watch while drinking coffee. Fabric folded as you did today is just right!

[@pattidilldine3218]

Love this fabric, I like how you layout the fabric now. No need to open completely!

[@user-mfyfe]

I loved the fabrics…and I like the way you showed the fabrics today. :) I laughed when you said you were stalking the delivery code. I do that sometimes…haha! Very fun box! ❤

[@deloresrast8543]

You show the fabric just fine Holly. Don’t change a thing.

[@marieerickson9695]

I love this box. I am on the waitlist and I signed up for the Robin Pickens box. Thank you for showing these to me! You are the best!❤ Lela boutique and Vanessa is one of my favorite designers!

[@jillianbelan8946]

That’s a great box, love the patterns. 😊

[@laureeniannucci4878]

I lOVE red!!!!!!

[@RaedeaneHawthorne]

Beautiful makes me think about valentines day

[@cheryleaston6820]

No need to open the fabric completely. Love the box. TFS

[@buffielorah9946]

These fabrics are gorgeous. I love the way you display the fabrics for us. I hope Dandelion doesn't run after the coyote again. That's scary.

[@maryg7599]

Unless you’re showing a panel or very large-scale print, the partial-unfolding for the fat quarters is great (saves time, less stress/fraying on the fabric cut edges than a complete unfolding/refolding, and it fits better in the viewing space on your desk as you layer them). Also, I appreciate it when you point out the cute selvedge edges when you run across them. Today’s fabric was great. Hope to see what you make with it (even if it wasn’t one of the recommended projects). P.S. the brighter lip color looks so nice on you and it complements the pretty blue in your shirt.

[@tiggermom0258]

I like how far you’re opening the fabrics. However much lipstick makes YOU feel happy, is what matters! Really like the quilt pattern and fabrics! Stay warm and beautiful! Thank Tom for me for being such an awesome guy that treats you like a princess!! xo

[@DandelionStitches]

[@Ellen-misty.meadows.]

Thank you for being an uplifting channel and a safe place for us that need to forget the world (except the fabric world) for a few minutes! Love you bunches 💗. Stay warm!

[@JaneStorms-q4z]

Happy New Year, Holly! I don't often comment, but I want you to know how much I appreciate this oasis of calm and YOU. I watch every episode. I'm sorry that you lost a member, but this is no place for for the drama of politics and/or religion. Hold fast.

[@nancisailormoy9135]

Love all things Lela Boutique and I think you are getting more comfortable with the new haircut and really does look amazing on you and I hope you get used to it and don't go back. We are just now starting to get some warmer 40's here in Philly, it was pretty artic here last week.

[@tamaraclayton-wd6jh]

I ordered the Robin Pickens box. I'm sew excited

[@maureenleclair8773]

I do appreciate the no religion or politics rules. When I was working that was a rule I lived by there - no discussion of either. Thank you for that. But I do send Light and Love to Everyone. ❤🙏❤

[@carol8273]

Well said!

[@marthacook]

The box was okay. Not my cup of tea but to each their own. I doodle circles. We pretty much get what the fabric looks like the way you are doing it now. Nice to have a cork board to do that. Have a great weekend!

[@paulachase8112]

This bag is great, love the fabrics, I liked the patterns. I like stickers, too. The way you open the fabric is fine. Red is my favorite, so it's totally my jam. 🎉

[@mignonnerogers6848]

Hey Holly!!! The new LELA Boutique box looks good!! The quilt pattern is pretty, I am not a pillow maker at this point 😂, and the fabrics and items are very nice! Thank you for sharing this new possibility with us!! Stay safe Dandelion 🥰

[@LauraSup]

I love this collection! I can appreciate that you want this to be a safe place free of politics and religion! KZbin is the only social media I use. I had to eliminate all others for my own mental health reasons! I cannot engage in negativity and no longer do!

[@klwmadeit]

“I have a notebook problem”…. 😂 Me too! It is growing like my fabric stash - faster than I can use 😄

[@DandelionStitches]

I know, right? There can never be too many. xo

[@kristenhill8016]

I think the partial presentation of the fabrics works better than having to unfold it completely. I wouldn't mind know if they were fat quarter yard cuts or 1/2 yards? And thank you for sticking to your guns. I appreciate you!

[@memawcrabb]

beautiful fabric

[@susanowen1709]

Good afternoon and happy Friday! It's a shame that someone was unable to stand being told, "We don't talk about that here," but perhaps they will find a better fit elsewhere. Who knows, they may even find they miss your channel & come back someday. The patterns are quite nice, especially the pillow. I appreciate how they say X yards of red fabric, Y yards of white backing, etc. instead of X yards Fabric A, Y yards Fabric B. It's a lot easier to look at the project photo & see which fabric is which this way, and help one decide whether or not to switch up any of the colors. Despite never using any sort of lace or trim, I absolutely love the "Hearts on a String" embellishment. So cute. As for the fabrics, wowzers! Definitely Valentine's Day but at the same time it's not too "in your face" about it. The pinks have a bit of a peach-ish undertone which I think helps a lot; and having patterns other than just hearts does too. The price seems reasonable for the amount of goodies that come in the box.

[@joanne305]

That is a awesome box. It brings me joy looking at petty fabrics. Enjoy the time you get to spend with your son.

[@feliciaross3611]

I love the fabric and the RED! Joy comes in all different shapes and colors and this box would give me joy.

[@kimthompson2391]

Thank you for showing the board. Love it. Fabric is pretty.

[@wandahall7623]

Thank you for showing this box! You always have the best presentation of everything in it!

[@GinaGrowe]

LOL! I recognize that Yeti! I'd have a Joy Board but Dairy Queen, Culver's, Freddy's and Baskin Robbins would just drip everywhere 🤣🤣🤣 Yummmmm ice cream!🤪😋🍦🍧🍨

[@rhondastory6825]

Love the Valentine fabric. The fabric display was great. Happy day. ❤😊

[@robindrake9998]

Good to see you as always your hair is very pretty you put us in our happy place I like the fabrics so pretty ❤

[@anncantlin9710]

$72 is a lot of money for that box🤪🙀

[@tinachilders3541]

I think the way you opened and laid out the fabric works fine. It show the beauty of the fabric as well as how they all work together. I'm not a big Valentine person anymore. But the material is beautiful in it's own right. The box is kind of pricey for my taste, but it was beautfful. Hope you have a good day. See you next video.

[@kathleenheston5295]

This box is fabulous♥Love the fabric and quilt pattern so very much♥This would be so cute for a little girl's room in February♥

[@crazycrab9087]

I think you do a great job on the fabric! Thank you for your hard work!

[@rosehixon2790]

No, not too much lipstick. You look gorgeous! And I love the straight hair too. I love your hair however you wear it. It’s always well done like you really care what we think that makes me feel good that you care what I think. Love you, Holly.❤

[@JoyceMills-k9d]

Lovely fabric. I made one red and white quilt once. It turned out really pretty.

[@ohnickie]

I like the way you are doing it.

[@dlcupples396]

I live in Wyoming and can relate to what cold is!

[@charoletthoward7312]

Hello Holly, I like your hair. You have more snow!

[@annetteellis4188]

Nice box. I love Lela boutique fabrics. Great idea of releasing new fabrics from these top two designers. Thanks for sharing

[@livingweirdestherc6644]

I love all the goodies

[@Ane-kh3yp]

Fun box and loved your board Holly. I liked the fabric presentation as easy to see them all together. Take care until the next video. :)

[@maryjosanchez2864]

Thanks Holly! Lela's box is very sweet and pretty! Take care.

[@carolinehiggins3453]

I love love red and white quilts, so I l9ve that box. And thank you so much for keeping this a safe site.

[@GinaGrowe]

I think this collection by Vanessa is so so pretty. Of course, the polka dot fabrics are my fav and I've already purchased yardage but second would be the pretty florals. Holly! I love your shirt! It looks warm, cozy and I love the blues ;-) Right! Stinkin' cold in Illinois but I remember getting snow in May which is eye opening 😳

[@DandelionStitches]

Ok...by May I'm totally over it!

[@terryannsturm9141]

I listen to Calm Meditation in the morning. Today she shared this from Chas Dickens “a loving heart is the truest wisdom”. I thought that appropriate for your Valentine box opening ❤ enjoy your lunch date

[@robertaa.8600]

Hi Holly, Great fabric! I like when you’re able to read the salvage understanding that it’s not always available ❤️

[@paulacox902]

Nice box!

[@donnadavis1739]

Partial opening the fabric is fine for me. You can see them good. Also thank you for being a neutral place to talk. I appreciate that. No political or religious agenda here. Good job!!!! 😊 I am not into this box for the price. Open gate is better. Just my opinion.

[@lisawitowski5712]

Hi Holly, I like the box and the fabric is very pretty. I do think it's a little pricey. I would definitely prewash the fabric. I learned the hard way with a red and white quilt ( it turned into a red, white, and pink quilt). The pillow is my favorite. The partial open, of the fabric, is fine. ❤

[@elizabethmckay8712]

I thought your lipstick looked great. Not a fan of lovey-dovey and hearts but would use the fabrics in the box. The only coyotes I've seen are on film! Is that a photo of you as a child on the cork board? Love seeing the squirrels in your yard. You display fabrics perfectly.

[@DandelionStitches]

The color pic is my daughter, Kysa, and the b&w is me.

[@sharonframpton1887]

Hi Holly! Beautiful goodies in that box! The coca cola pin on your cork board....I know someone else who would have love that!

[@patvezino1349]

i saw this line coming out and happy to see it in the box! i love red for my living room. i saw a coyote in florida!

[@terrigunning5745]

Ooh, those colors were really well coordinated and I loved the patterns. Coyotes nor badgers were not tolerated growing up on a ranch with calves, dogs, cats, chickens, turkeys, pigs. and other defenseless animals and livestock and 3 little siblings.

[@DandelionStitches]

Understandable. Pine Martens and weasels were on the "not invited" list, too.

[@terrigunning5745]

@DandelionStitches We don't have those here. But we do have an occasional elk, deer, moose, or cougar wander into town. Fish and Game shoos them back to the mountains. The joys of living in a valley surrounded by mountains.

[@redskyebc]

Scary about the coyote. We used to have a Red Tri Merle Border Collie who had to wear hunter orange when we went to the woods so he wouldn’t be mistaken for a coyote by anyone with a gun. The fabric in this subscription was great; I love Valentines Day!

[@gailcates2941]

Thank you for no politics,😊 there's enough on the news.😢 The way you open is fine, no need for more unless it's a panel.😊

[@LeEllenParker-e7o]

Red is not really my color either, but it is not sicky valentines fabric (just hints at it). I like the way you have been doing the fabric, I think it lines up nicely so we can see how they all work together. I am curious if they are half yard cuts. I wish there was a product guide with prices included, because I'm just not sure how the value lines up.

[@GinaGrowe]

Personally, I like the partial opening and showing them the way you are currently doing. Are these fat quarters or half yards? I think I would make the heart pillow with one of the florals showcased - who am I kidding - I would make a pillow cause I'd want to make a pillowcase! Doh! Nevermind, I saw on the last one that they are fat quarters AND the last polka dot is my fav!

[@DandelionStitches]

Fat quarters. I like the polka dots, too.

[@elainehubbard2875]

Nice box but seems a little expensive for the contents received.

[@MICHIGANGAL007]

Don't need to open fabric. it is perfect the way you lay it out. Nice box.

[@Kathleen_Pepper]

It’s a cool box! I was tempted by it but as a Canadian, the cost to me would be outrageous!! Sad face. I’m really eager to see the Robin Pickens box now. Shame that someone had a hard time being told they broke the rules. Like you pretty much have two things to can’t do!

[@edelweissquiltingembroider1761]

You don't need to open them more than that. it would not be in the camera view anyways if you open them more.I liked the pattern.

[@Liss9248]

I’m not a huge fan of Lela Boutique floral collections, I did like the smoke and rust line, however I love Robin Pickens fabric. I have no idea why one appeals to me and the other doesn’t. I appreciate your stance on politics and religion, it’s so personal and divisive.

[@GinaGrowe]

I have Metricaphobia so I'd have to give that tape measure away - like immediately. In middle school I sliced my hand open pretty severely with a metal tape measure and since then have had an issue with them. I'm fine with a regular cloth/plastic tape measure that doesn't retract though, and I will on occasion use a metal tape measure if I have on heavy duty work gloves but I will break out in a sweat when I pick one up and have hyperventilated before.

[@tamelasimmons7]

I like the way you are opening the fabric. I super love red! I do not care for hearts, though. I think it is a really nice box, but not for me. It isn’t their fault , I just never liked Valentine fabric. Thank you for keeping your channel politic and religion free. ❤
