    So wonderful to hear this!!  Just use one strand of the white thread and you can use your size 8 needle with it.

    I just checked the Crystal Set videos, and it seems I missed posting this video, which explains to use one strand.  So sorry about that!

    My butterfly is coming along great! I can’t tell how many strands of the white thread you are using to apply the iridescent sequins. The thread as is will be too thick.

    Great!  And that was fast shipping!

    I’ll start to flip the videos and reupload them.  They have to be flipped, re-exported then re-uploaded to YouTube, so it’ll take tonight and maybe a little bit of tomorrow to do so, will update you.

    Thank you for the suggestion. When I realized the oversight I ordered the SolidGnik frame. Received today. Assembly required. Hope to be up and running soon.

    The edges of the organza fraying should not matter as long as it is fitted into the hoop securely.

    Which step are you at?

    Ok, just let me know if you want them flipped.

    I’ll be on this class forum answering questions until 2 weeks after March 8.  Don’t worry, I’ll keep the videos up on YouTube.  Afterward the two weeks though, I might password protect them, but they will still be available.  Let me check with Rand and Solveig and get back to you.

    Thank you for flipping the stem video. Very kind. Please hold off converting the others. A major contributor to the challenge is discovery of  failure to obtain a standup holder, to use both hands. I will need to catch up. How long will the course videos and downloads be available?

    Hello,

    The website didn’t allow me to post a reply to the original thread about the kits, so I am making a new thread here.

    Laura Sandison – I did not have extra felt on hand when I sent out your kit, so a separate shipment has been sent containing the felt sheet you’ll need for Week 2.

    Katheleen Weston – I did not have anymore opaque pink…[Read more]

    I’ve been wishing I could make fabric covered boxes for decades, but never felt that my collected books were enough to get me there.  I know I still have much to learn (and many a curved needle yet to conquer), but I am pleased with this first attempt.  Hinged back leaves it lifted a bit in front and trailing needs even more practice. Not p…[Read more]

    Ok, I was able to flip the video.  So I took the first stem stitch video and made a reverse image of it.  So it is me doing the same thing but it starts on the left side.  It is uploaded here, if it helps let me know and then I will flip all the other videos for you and upload them.
