Love seeing your projects. I am going to have to start another few chatelaines now! My sea shell treasures for the maiden just came in - they are very muted. I wouldn't feel bad about swapping them out at all!!
Thanks for video! Tubbataha - my favorit :)) Fabric for Mariposa - too much for me, but the more interesting it will be to watch it wip! Who does not take risks does not drink champagne!😀
I am fascinated by the idea of ironing your threads. I have never heard of this. Can you please explain that a little more? Do you use an iron, or maybe a hair straightening iron? Or do you mean something other than the traditional idea of ironing? Also, can you clarify, did you say that your skin is tent 2 over 1? And may I ask which dyer your Starburst fabric came from? And YES, there is a tiny house stitcher on flosstube. I think her flosstube is called Tiny House Stitcher actually, but not positive. I felt the same way about loving minimal living. We downsized after our kids grew up and ended up at the beach in a very small cottage - not as small as a tiny house, but like apartment-sized. Now I dream of up-sizing just because of my stitching haha Sorry, for so many questions! :)
I had braces for many years and theres a small learning curve when you first get them, I think the main thing is you start to get calluses and its not so sore anymore so maybe so much talking that quick after getting them would make your gums sore
I iron my fabric then roll it up and put a tie on it then stick it upright standing in a basket with all my others. No wrinkles! Wonderful for storage.
Omg there is a Tiny House Stitcher, and that is literally her channel name. She even does a house tour. I can't remember her stitching style or supplies or anything though. Check her out she is at like 3k subs I think.
I use a travel sized hair straightener, so it only has an on/off setting. I did a video demonstration (ironing my threads) and I showed how long it took to melt metallic threads.
I have deep impact fabric from xjudesign as well, such a beautiful fabric! Have you looked at full bloom? It's an opalescent, rich purples and magentas linen. It seems right up your alley. I bought a piece and it is even more gorgeous in person. I look forward to seeing queen mariposa as a wip, that's a beautiful fabric. Happy stitching!
