Hello RU-vid Friends!
In March 2024, I was the guest lecturer on the most beautiful Cruise ship, sailing up the Norwegian Fjords. The project I devised was English Paper Pieced. We stitched on it as we sailed north and enjoyed the fabulous scenery and the wonderful experience of the Havila Capella. If you are planning a similar journey, I can't recommend this Cruise company more highly.
This video is a compilation of all the things I did whilst on board, including a visit the Bridge, the Engine Rooms and the Kitchen!
You can find the Tempestry Project that Jamie explained here. I am waiting for my kit to arrive and then I will start on this most interesting project. www.tempestryproject.com
My fellow passengers were mostly my Patrons and I loved getting to know them a little better. You can join us here for weekly videos, my monthly diary and more posts throughout the month for the price of a coffee or a craft magazine!

Kate, not only is this a visually lovely film, it is also inspirational. And how lovely to see Arne and Carlos on your channel again. I've been stuck in the house for almost two years now and the combination of your crafting and gardening is keeping me going. Thanks love.

You've made me cry - AGAIN. I am so happy that you decided to start a you tube channel - the best ever you tube channel. Kate you are such a beautiful person. Going on a cruise has never appealed to me - in fact I dislike the thought of it........ but the way this ship is run, the beautiful landscapes and towns and all the sewing/knitting - it has even tempted me. Thank you for another enlightening and gorgeous video.

@gloriacotten6183 2 месяца назад

I do so agree with you! I have been on 2 cruises, 1 to the Caribbean to be with dear friends (it was torture!) and the other to Alaska which was slow-paced and beautiful much like this one. Kate is blessed with the friendship of Arne and Carlos and their invitation for this slow sail on a smaller, more intimate ship. And we are blessed to have her share with us!

Kate, I so enjoyed seeing such lovely parts of your trip! I love that you added the Aurora Borealis at the end. Having lived in Southern Illinois the first 57 years of my life and the last 5 years in Western Kentucky (USA). I thought I’d never see them except in photos or video. However, miraculously the Northern Lights came to me! Yes, here in Western Kentucky! May 10th of 2024 the Aurora Borealis somehow made its way to the middle of the United States! It was a once in a lifetime experience right outside my front door! Ours was all pink, purple and blue. No greens were seen from what I’ve heard. It was a wonderful experience, one I’ll never forget! It’s so lovely that you have the opportunity to travel and meet so many new and interesting people from all over the world. I love getting a small peek into your life and world over there across the pond. I would love to travel to England someday to see the things you see every day! I think we all think that about other folks and their lives. God bless you and all you do! Sharon Mausey. Paducah Kentucky (yes, where the largest quilt show is every year for a little over 40 years now) It’s usually the week of my birthday in April. 🥰😍

Kate, I’m sure there is not a one of us subscribers who would not have been delighted to keep you company with a cup of hot coffee or tea in front of that faux fireplace🤗 What a fantastic time you must have had. Thank you for sharing it with us. You looked lovely with your delicate gold chain-so nice to see you wearing what must be a special piece of jewelry. Of course, it made me smile to see you wearing your beautiful green sweater! That’s “our” Kate! I hope you will do this or a similar cruise again-it would be an absolute thrill to join you! So glad you got to see the Northern Lights!!

Kate, I just watched one of your old videos (4rys old). I enjoy all of your videos, especially chatty ones! Well, on this one I watched you asked us to recommend other utube channels. I do watch a few you already know. I would recommend THE FABRIC PATCH. (Love this ) They are a mother (Cindy) and daughter (Breanna) whom own and run a shop in Washington in the USA. They do box openings of fabric, on Wednesday and Sunday, with lots of chatting. They also do FABRIC CHAT on Wednesday mornings. They chat and chat and chat!!❤ I think you might enjoy them. They laugh so much. I have been fighting cancer for 7 years and channel's like yours and theirs, make my days better. Thanks for your videos Kate . One day maybe I might see all of them. I CHATTED LONG ENOUGH😊. STAY SAFE, AND I ALWAYS SAY,..."KEEP ON KEEPING ON " VICTORIA 💚💞🪡🧵

Hello Kate. I am a new subscriber to your channel and I have been having a wonderful time watching your videos from latest ( trip to Norway …on my bucket list)….to oldest and in between !. I now live in Canada ( it’s been a very long 2 years …that was what I was told when we arrived here in 1982 !!!!). I was born in Ireland ,trained as a nurse and midwife. I had family living in Newcastle and Durham area for about a decade in mid sixties to mid seventies and was a frequent visitor to your part of the world…so beautiful. I have done many of the crafts you do and continue to so. Knitting / quilting are my favourites Embroidery and Rug hooking next. Have dabbled in pottery too. Our family are big fans of Lord of the Rings…. Trip to New Zealand in our travel plans in the near future. I love farm life and all furry creatures big and small . I loved gardening and had a lovely garden once upon a time. Sadly I had to give it up due to serious back problems. Now I enjoy watching others garden including yourself. I feel like I am there both in your home and garden as I have watched your videos. I also love to cook and bake. However I am currently “ off duty” from kitchen activities due to recurring back issues…. Another surgery looms in a week 🙄🙄. However I have plenty of your videos to catch up on and distract me in the coming weeks. Thank you so much for sharing your home; garden and furry friends with everyone on the lime green couch. Cheers, Marian

Wow! Such a great video journaling your fabulous trip. The scenery was breathtaking & I very much enjoyed your interviews with diff people & their projects including Arnie’s paper pieced tablecloth. I too, love talking to others & hearing their story. I am prone to getting vertigo so “boats” are off limits but crafts are very much allowed & I am currently making my 1st hexi paper pieced quilt thanks to the gorgeous hexi you made for Agnes. I especially enjoyed the tempestry project. I’m working on a temp quilt for this year in California. I love ev you do Kate & very much look forward to more adventures. You have so many followers & we all appreciate your videos from the lime green sofa. Ps Lime green & purple are my 2 fav colors. 😬

Kate what an amazing, informative, beautiful holiday you shared with us all , wow the scenery was absolutely spectacular. I am terrified of ships ..boats..but you made me want to try to make my self board one and exsperience the great joy and adventure you went on , the people you met were so great and busy moving along with the sights as they passed and the projects before them . It's a journey I'll never make in my life time ( 72 yrs on the 18th April this year ) , but I can watch the vlog of your trip every day if I desire , thank you Kate .. The climate scarf was so very interesting, I'll look into that ( I was born in Nottingham England in 1852 ) as it sounds fascinating and something I could achive . Loving the projects you took along for anyone to do ,some fabulous variations..well done All 👍.. looking forward to your finished cardigan , love the colour. The food looked delicious, did they accomadate vegetarians with great variety?? .. I'd love to believe I could do that amazing trip ,but deep in my soul I know I wouldn't be able to , so I'm so looking forward to the coming vlogs and many little snippets and reminders of the most amazing people and adventure you had that I'm sure you'll share with us .. Take care and Thank you for sharing yours and others journey through the mist beautiful part of the world. Love and many blessings Ella in Sydney Australia Australia 🌹

@bobbiebrandel3152 2 месяца назад

The aurora was marvelous!! How mesmerizing. At the front of the video, I wanted to say I loved the colors of yarn you chose for your project. The scenery was wonderful; I loved the many colored painted houses. I just loved the whole video, actually. What a great idea the tempestry was, literally decades at a glance of temperature change. I had read recently that some of the hieroglyphics are whole ideas, not words. I don't know, but the tempestry is a fine example of the visual expressing a whole thought, not just words. Thank you so much for sharing. I enjoy watching you being you. Does that make sense? smile

@jamiethrogmorton2540 2 месяца назад

I love your thoughts about the image conveying a whole idea-yes, I’d agree, the Tempestries (in pairs for comparison over time) do indeed convey very powerfully the reality of gradual climate change, often not noticeable day to day or year to year. 🎉
