I love those variations! Thank you for your tutorials.

You’re by far the best teacher I’ve been able to find. One of the things I find to be most helpful is that when you’re teaching it is so important to use the stabbing method. Something in my brain has a very hard time following people who use the sewing method. I just can’t follow it. Also, this has been one of my favorite tutorials as I absolutely love the feather stitch in all its beauty. Thank you

Stabbing method when it's in a frame, sewing method for when it's hand held Robin! I have been asked by someone to show how to form the stitches when not using a frame so I may explore this in another video...

Sarah you have truly inspired me to this art of slow stitching beautiful things. I have come to love the sound of the thread popping through a hooped canvas as you stitch. I never used to use the hoop as it seemed to be so more laborious than the sewing method. But now in my old age I am no longer in such a hurry. I have come to admire the methodical precision of stitching in the hoop. And I too have a ginger cat who sits on my thread or in my lap swatting at the thread as it goes by. (Grrrr. )

I have a ginger cat that does the same thing. Her name is Summer. Love the stitches.

The gift is as close as we could be for now. I can't thank you enough. And of course, I appreciate your clear and lucid presentation. You made a novice like me able to actually get something presentable embroidered. Thanks, again.

I always liked doing French knots. I learned very early and always thought they were easy! As always, beautifully done❣ I've never quilted; but, I sew and have done embroidery. I have always wanted to do a velvet crazy quilt and these feather stitch designs would be so lovely.

Thank you Sarah! I love the last one with the hearts & beads, I'm thinking about using it in 2 projects I'm planning, the 1st one is I wanna stitch it on both sides of this cute denim pants I bought for my niece, I'll stitch it all the way down. And the 2nd one I will stitch it on a white satin ribbon and use it to thread this cute lace crocheted head band I made for my other baby niece. Thank you for the ideas, I will use them all eventually. God Bless you and your family. From Michelle, USA

The first and third are my favorites; I think they are so delicate and pretty. The fourth one gives me watery vibes. Before adding the second layer, I thought it looked like mermaid scales. After the second layer was added, my brain pictures fan coral.
