Ingeborg you always inspire me to do more stitching tho I don’t know the reason. May just be your passion for stitching and the colors you use. I too so love vibrant colors. I love to hear you talk about your stitching and what you show. We don’t have the same taste in stitching but I so enjoy seeing what you do and hearing all that you have to say. Glad you got well from your June illness. Patty in Missouri💗would love the bunnies if you haven’t given it away. The basket looks exactly like my woven Easter basket as a child

Ingeborg, I'm so glad to see you got the Maia kit! I have stitched both Sakura (black dress) and Misaki (red dress). I love them both and always thought you would appreciate the designs. I would definitely recommend using an evenweave fabric due to all of the fractional stitches! I used the aida in the kits because I was a new stitcher and didn't know any better 😂 If you are interested, I would be happy to pass my pattern for Sakura on to you. You could kit it with your choice of evenweave and it calls for Anchor floss. Thanks for all of your videos and beautiful stitching!! I love the way Anatolia is turning out! Happy Stitching!

omg Brooke that's amazing. Thanks for the tips about the fabric and I would love to see pictures of your finishes, do you have an IG or FB account where I can find them? Thanks so much for your offer, I would be happy to discuss that with you, would you mind getting in touch through my email address: w_i_p@kpnmail.nl

Your flamingo finish is so cute, I should really retrieve mine from the pile of finishes. 😅 Great projects, Rain Dance looks amazing. Hoping the attention you're giving it brings some relief from the heat. :) Great eBay finds! 🙈🙈 I'm still kind of new to the world of silks, I would like to give those a try. Thank you for the offer and for the flipthrough! Happy stitching. :)

I loved you naming it the Bay of Evil. I used to get lost in that bay from time to time. I even tried swimming around in it as a seller but the depths were too deep for me. I am part of both Silks4U clubs. The new club gives me a chance to see what is standard in her store. The other one, with special colors, is a good way to build an unusual stash. Plus, for a small charge, Jo will dye a hank to your specifications. I assume that means she will dye it from one of her monthly specials as well. I think the upcharge is something like 15%. Loved seeing the updates on your projects as well as the embroidery magazine. See you again next time, Vicki

Wow, you got some great finds on ebay, Ingeborg. That Maia kit will be gorgeous stitched! Your Anatolia is equally gorgeous - seeing your progress makes me want to bring mine out to start! Rain Dance is also lovely - you are stitching work from two of my favorite designers - Ink Circles and Long Dog Samplers. I have bought silk hanks from Silks4U and they are really special. I look forward to seeing you again and wish you happy stitching in August! Take care.

Ingeborg (I hope I spelled that correctly), I've been binge-ing your videos for the past day or two and I am so enjoying getting to know you. I love the fabric you chose for "Garden Party," and your large frame bags are great. I've never seen Rain Dance; I'm going to have to take a closer look at it now. Do you have to stitch on that particular pattern for the SAL?
