This is a fantastic tutorial and you have taught me quite a few things to help me. Gotta say your little samples are just so beautiful. I'm going to see if you have any other tutorials and if so bugger the housework im getting a pot of tea and im going to be busy for quite some time. Thanks for sharing your tips and tricks. Best video I've seen

Your work is beautiful! You are a wonderful teacher…clear, concise and creative! I have found in whatever you want to learn that you have to be consistent in practicing and just enjoy it. I am deaf but I read captions. The captioning on this video is excellent. I have self taught myself many things thanks to people like you who share their inspiration and talents on KZread. Thank you!

Thank you for viewing and for taking the time to comment and share your kind thoughts. And I am delighted to hear that KZread is captioning my videos so that you can 'read' them. Interestingly, in the past half dozen years I have had difficulty with my right ear which they treat by putting in tubes so I can hear quite normally. However, when the tube falls out, my hearing becomes like I am underwater. Lucky for me I can get another tube for a fix, but it has certainly given me much eye opening thought as to how those of you and others with hearing difficulties deal with the situation. Thank you again for sharing your thoughts!

What a wonderfully informative and enjoyable video! Not only do you share a vast amount of worthwhile instruction, but it's fun to watch and your work is absolutely beautiful to see. Thank you for sharing, Mary!

I’m a quilter, just starting to do wool appliqué. I learned so much from just this video, I’m excited to find others and get started stitching! Your voice and pace are a pleasure. Thank you for sharing your beautiful talent.

Thankyou for this helpful video….. I have been sewing since I was 5 yrs old, learned at my mother’s knee. 76 yesterday and I can tell anyone reading this that “you’re never too old to learn something new’. Who knew about marking your thumb like that? Neat idea:). Glad I have found your channel , thanks and good wishes from Belfast NI.

Hello from across the blue ocean! Thanks for viewing and taking the time to comment. I think our grandmothers and even mothers, had a wealth of knowledge. So glad my mom put up with my sometimes less than enthusiastic attitude in order to share her sewing know how with me and like yourself she started me very young, around 4 years! I wish she were around today so I could share what I am doing. While she sewed beautifully, when I was 13 I was sent to learn to tat from a older woman in her home town and then came home to teach her. She was an incredible tatter! Lucky us for the moms we had! Enjoy your stitching!

Great job. Especially helpful for uneven souls like me!

Such wonderful tips; this old gal beginner is indeed grateful. Much thanks, have subscribed and will be watching everything, probably multiple times. ❤

Incredibly helpful. Clear, no fuss. Inspirational. Thank you.

omg!! I remember my mom teaching me the blanket stitch using the width of my finger nail...of course I was about 4-5 years old at the time and my fingers were alot smaller!!! My mom was a seamstress back in the 60's and would sew dresses (mostly brides dresses) in her store that was in the basement of our house. I spent all my time there by her side until I started school at 6 years old and that was only half days! Retired for many years, I have dabbled in many different artwork and recently found slow stitching and also found my old never finished embroideries and petit point from the 70's. So glad your video found its way into my feed although 2 years late! Love your way of teaching and your little tricks. Your work is absolutely beautiful!!! For sure I will like and subscribe and will venture to visit your past videos. Thank you!

AWWW gosh! Thank you for viewing and taking the time to comment. It is always rewarding for me to know that the information in my videos is helpful to others and even better if it sparks that little bit of creativity in your soul. Seems the days are gone when young kids learned to stitch so early. I have a piece in my scrap book from when I was 4..even my older brother was given embroidery to do (maybe when we were bored? lol! He was pretty good at it!) All my clothes were hand sewn - often from hand me down clothing - as were the household items such as kitchen curtains etc. My mom was meticulous seamstress and had a good bit of knowledge about tailoring, etc. I did not realize the value of what she taught me till I was almost 30. When you're thirteen all you want is a dress to wear to school and you don't really care how great your sewing is! LOL! I don't know when my mom found the time to sew...but she never had the time to quilt. She did knit and somewhere in her 50's, she sent me to her home town to study tatting with an older woman there and come home to then teach her ....which I did. She was an exquisite tatter. So certainly get out those older projects and enjoy working on them...It will be the greatest way for you to be her sewing legacy! BTW - my 45 year old son just completed his third cross stitched Christmas stocking for his ' almost' nephews (he is engaged to his fiance!) Neither of my daughters sew although one does cross stitch. Perhaps stitching genes do get passed on!!

Thank you for sharing. This is the best tutorial for spacing and depth when doing blanket stitch. 🪡🧵

Thank you for taking the time to view and to comment. While there are always clever hints etc. there's no doubt that practice helps every one of us. AND as a 'recovering' perfectionist I find that it really is much more enjoyable to just not give over to the feelings of having everything perfect - we usually are our own worst critics. When I think my work isn't all that good, I usually find that if I ask someone else's opinion (OR put the piece away for a while) that 99.9% of the time they don't even notice any imperfections. All this said means to just enjoy the stitching!!

Over time and with practice, all our skills improve, but do remember that 'perfection' is highly over rated: I often wonder how many wonderful projects we don't get to see because we feel they are not 'good enough'... Others seldom see our work the way we do. So mostly, yes work to improve, but don't forget to have fun along the way. Trust and enjoy your own creativity!
