Marion, thank you so very much for the daisy. Your videos are the first I seek out in the morning and come back to all day. God Bless you for sharing the beautiful gifts He has given you. Virginia, USA
What a cutie daisy!!! I am learning so much from you Marion, thank you! You are absolutely right. There are several little tutorials online that teaches the stitching technique, but does not show how it can be used in a project like you do! Love it! I am also so excited you have more videos coming up! I will never be overwhelmed by your videos. Keep them coming ❤❤❤❤❤ Have a lovely day.
Lovely! Now I’ve learned another stitch that I can try. Marion, your videos really make me think. I appreciate your company. The background noises are a normal part of a chit-chat. It’s real!
Yes please to more of your tutorials! You are an excellent teacher, nicely pacing your instructions and editing well. Your daisy page is beautiful, I think you need one or two on your yellow dress!
Thanks for the vote of confidence Fran. All this filming and editing is so new to me and it seems to take me ages. I think I'm getting good at cutting stuff out! Talk about the cutting room floor.....!
I love the Daisy ! I’m going to use those pedals for my ears on my Easter Bunnies. Watching your creativity has made me braver to do my own thing. Thank you, so much. You are great!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Loved this ! I’m a complete beginner, but feel that I could try a Daisy now 😊. It took me way back to my childhood. We watched a programme at school , a highlight of the week. The intro was that tune, we all used to sing along and I’ve sung it ever since💕. Thank you
I'm so pleased that the way I've shown it has made you want to try it Yvonne. There are lots of stitches that you might think are difficult, but in reality they're really not. As always, practice makes everything easier to do. But you have to start somewhere, and, as long as you're enjoying yourself, what's the worst that can happen? Let me know how you get on with it.... good luck!
Oh amariin that was absolutely wonderful and so beautiful! I’ve yet again learnt something new from you. Oh and don’t worry about background noises if you ever watch Corrine from “To Be Loved Treasures by Corrine” you will hear her precious dog Bandit howling! It is absolutely hilariously cute and we all get so much joy hearing the antics Bandit and Pepper (the digs) and dear little Fudge the cat get up to. It’s just gorgeous. Love hearing the sound of Boo talking to you and letting us know his news for the day. Soooo very sweet. 😁😁🥰🥰
Thanks for sharing! That was the perfect thread for the daisy! You are right about USING THE STITCHES…I have thought about doing a stitch book, but I thought why? This is the perfect answer!😊
Thank you for that Linda. I've never taught embroidery to anyone before. Unless you count showing my daughter how to stitch years ago that is! I'm so happy you think I'm a good teacher!
I just received a heart hug 🤗 ❤ I just love it when I get a new message from my friend Marion!!! Your Daisy is awesome!!! You always brighten my day!!! Thank you and many blessings to you ❤
Oh...you're so welcome Sheryl. I'm so pleased you're enjoying my little videos. Hope you're having a lovely day. It's all sunny and warm here in the UK...
Good afternoon Marion, thank you for a beautiful inspiring video, and the instructions are so clear . The daisy, are beautiful, yes please to more videos, think I learn alot from you . Soft hugs Teresa xx
It may be a simple page, but it is beautiful. I'am 2 years older then you are, and yes...no internet, no computers, only books to learn everything. I still have a lot of books, it is easy to pick up a book and look for ideas. But the last years I love you tube too. I was a little later to watch you video. I finished the hexies and made a small doll bed quilt with the leftovers. I see you made another bird video today. I will watch it somewhere this week.
Thank you Marjan 😊 I only recently started to look at CZcams..... When I posted the very first little 2 minutes of my first book I didn't realise other people would be able to look at it 😂 I thought I had to give people the link to it so they could have a look 🤣 Now I realise just how much amazing work is on here it's opened up a whole new world!
The detached woven Picot stitch is lovely and I can see it being used for rabbit ears, carrots (orange) or corn (yellow) in a design. Thanks for showing us how. By the way I didn't even hear a plane and the dog and cat sounds were not loud at all.
I can think of so many applications for this stitch! Even with freeform embroidery. I have been busy with charity knitting and crochet this month, but come October I am going to flex creative muscles! Thank you
Beautiful as usual Marion. Please keep the past videos up as I’m not ready yet and I so want to make a flower book with you from start to finish as a set project for myself. Tutorials are a brilliant idea, especially as you say, to actually use them in a project we can follow along with. 🪡🧵
They won't be going anywhere Dawn. Also I've just tried to make a playlist for each of the books. I'm learning a lot myself about to to run the channel as I hadn't done anything like it before!
Marion your page is exquisite I have just made a cloth book and funnily enough I have called it a daisy chain summer. I wish I had seen your daisys before I finished the front cover. Yours are si much better than mine Thanks for sharing x
My mind is churning, thinking about other ways to use this beautiful technique. I’m thinking of raised scales on a reptile, or the body of a dragonfly or butterfly, or even a pine cone! Thank you Marion!
Yes please time to breathe in between projects! I'm breathless at your pace Marion 😅. I used to enjoy making woven leaves and tallies when I began making bobbin lace in the '80s not realising I would also stitch them when I did more embroidery years later. I've made them more in different thicknesses of Perle depending on what I was stitching I think. Wasn't it fun making Daisy chains years ago? Another lovely page we've enjoyed you creating. Thanks.
I used to love making daisy chains... in fact I still make them occasionally. Do you still make bobbin lace? I can do easy patterns but was thinking of joining a class to learn more.
@@marionsworld24 I've made Torchon, Bedfordshire. Bucks Point, Honiton and a little Needlelace until going to a lace group once a month twenty years ago when I'd have bad headaches for a day or two afterwards - probably caused by me getting more hunched over the day as I worked I realised later! - and by then I'd joined a branch of The Embroiderers' Guild and was going to quilting classes (until they weren't considered educational!). Thus slow growing lace got left behind and I always had difficulty beginning a piece without a teacher. Due to my husband being in the RAF until 1999 we moved around a little so I generally muddled through but I enjoyed it. I've met some lovely people through the years and still keep in touch with some. Even when I was in Germany I had fun trying to buy stranded cottons in a shop for a couple of small tablecloths with transfer patterns printed on them. I have to follow someone else's ideas as yourself and some other people I've met just naturally produce a breathtaking piece. I love stitching but even when I've finished a piece hate making it into its final stage in case I ruin many hours of work by cutting badly/bungling a join. That's me and I don't like time limits etc as it's stressful and I lose the enjoyment but I still make gifts if I plan well ahead. We've just booked a few days in London to see our daughter and celebrate my husband's birthday a few days early in October so we're crossing fingers the train strikes won't be on our chosen dates as I'm heading for a day at the Knitting and Stitching Show at Alexandra Palace! I haven't been for years but I really want to go. I've wool in my stash for 3 winter sweaters so I'll concentrate on the stitching side. So annoying not to rely on public transport!☹️
I've only made torchon lace. I think that's probably the easiest to learn as I was learning from a library book...but I do know that there's a lace group not that far away from me that I may join if I think I have the time. I'm also going to the knitting and Stitching show... Just it'll be the one at Harrogate in November. There'll definitely be some knitting coming up on my channel as I've a couple of cardigans to start. Both beautiful fair isle ones. I hope you don't have a bother with the train strikes and enjoy London whilst you're there. Happy stitching jean😊
Absolutely lovely Marion but my heart was in my mouth when you were cutting the daisy out in case you cut those wonderful petals but as usual everything was perfect.
Marion, thank you so much for your lovely videos. Please can I ask about the Broderie cotton . I looked on line and it seems to come in different thicknesses, is there any chance you could post the details or even a link to the correct one for the Daisy, as I don’t want to go to thick or thin and yours looked perfect. Thank you.
Hello Sharon. I'm using old Anchor Coton a Broder number 18. I also have number 16 too. The lower the number the thicker the thread. I think mine would equate to around 3 strands of embroidery floss. If you use a finer thread you'd have to work a smaller petal. I'd have a practice with all 6 strands and a petal of around 2cm length as a practice. My petals are 1.5cm long. Good luck! Let me know how you get on with it....
Hi please can you tell me a little more about the thread you used as I can't find it on line maybe I'm not spelling it right ? The transcript says "cotton abroo day" ??
Oh dear Julie... The name is Coton a Broder. It's a single ply soft embroidery thread that comes in different thicknesses. The lower the number the thicker the thread. 16 is the thickest. Some of my thread is 16, some of it is 18. You could use 3 strands of stranded cotton instead which would get the same effect. I bought mine second hand as a bundle of assorted colours.

Another beautiful shared embroidery tutorial and project! Thank you
You are so welcome!
You demonstrate things so clearly! Lovely work. ❤️🌸
Thanks so much. I try to show you just what I would want to see if I was trying to learn.
Lovely! Now I’ve learned another stitch that I can try. Marion, your videos really make me think. I appreciate your company. The background noises are a normal part of a chit-chat. It’s real!
That's good Mara.. I just kept thinking ..There's another noise! I'll not worry about it so much... :)
@@marionsworld24 💜💜💜
Another great page for your flower book Marion, your videos are the highlight of my day, keep them coming, so inspirational
Thank you Marion, another beautiful page! I love the daisy petal technique. So simple yet so effective. Looking forward to the next video.
Love how those woven picot petals elevated that central daisy amongst the painted ones. They'd make great ears for a rabbit or hare too 😀
They certainly would! Also they can just be done singly to edge a stitched border along with some other stitches too.
I’m already putting ears on my Easter Bunnies! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Yes please to more of your tutorials! You are an excellent teacher, nicely pacing your instructions and editing well.
Your daisy page is beautiful, I think you need one or two on your yellow dress!

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love the daisy page thank you Marion
I love your video's Marion, you are a born teacher and so very talented, so glad i found you, i am learning so much xx
I love the Daisy ! I’m going to use those pedals for my ears on my Easter Bunnies. Watching your creativity has made me braver to do my own thing. Thank you, so much. You are great!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
It'll be good for bunny ears...
I have never seen that technique before and I love the daisy.
Wow! Sooo creative! You’re one talented lady, Marion! I’m learning a lot from you. Thank you!❤️
:)
Very sweet and combining technique, so imaginative. Brilliant Marion 🌟
Hi Marion. You do the most beautiful stitching. I enjoy watching you so much. You are a woman of many talents. This daisy page is lovely. Linda 🙂
Thank you Linda. I'm so pleased you like it. Even though it's a lot simpler than some of the others.

Thanks so much Teresa. I like combining different techniques in my books. I like to experiment with different things.
So pretty. Your tutorials are the best, Marion, so clear and at the perfect pace. You're an excellent teacher. Thank you 😊
Thank you for that. I'm pleased you think I'm making it all easy to watch along with. 💐
@@marionsworld24 very, very, Marion❣️
So loving watching you create your pieces - inspiring me all the time to try different things. Thanks for bringing new ideas into my head 🙂
I'm pleased my pages are giving you some ideas to go forward with..
Just adorable Marion !!! 🌼💛
So pretty. TFS
I adore your daisy chain. The care and detail you put into your work is scrumptious
💐
i cant wait to do a flower book, i wish i found your site a while ago, i shall keep on watching your channel
Oh Marion that was beautiful 💕
Thanks Carol. Have you tried that type of stitching before?
I love the way that you teach. That picot flower petal was so cool, and i liked being outside with you even with the dog the plane and boo😊
Stitching outside is so lovely...it will be a while yet...😏
Oh Marion you make it look so easy, absolutely love daisy's ❤ xx
It doesn't just look easy....it is a lot easier than you probably think.... You'll have to give it a go .. :)
Very cute! Daisies are my favorite flower! I love it!
Thanks Diana. They're definitely up there along with my favourites too. The little detached picot stitches worked so well for the centre one.

Brilliant Nancy!
Very beautiful.
I loved this - Thank you so much for sharing
Thanks so much for sharing. You are special and I appreciate you !!! 🪡🧵♥️
💐🤞🧵☺️
Marion another gorgeous page. A bit of nostalgia for me too as my lovely gran used to sing the daisy rhyme to me when I was a little girl.
Do you think children still learn these old fashioned songs? They're sort of hold overs from the music hall days I think....
@@marionsworld24 I used to watch Old Time Musical Hall on tv with my gran and I think they sang it on there
Love this page! Thanks for showing how to do that stumpwork stitch 😊
You're welcome Cynthia. Sometimes these types of stitches look a lot more difficult than they really are. I hope you have a go at doing it....
So beautiful and joyful ❤
So pretty ❤️
Wow , I’m going to have to try this Daisy it’s so beautiful ❤🌼🌼. You’re a lady of many talents. Xx
I hope you do try it out Linda. It isn't particularly difficult. Try with thicker thread as a practice maybe and then go down in size. Good Luck!
Just beautiful. My favourite flower I think. Never done this way before. Going to give it a go and make some brooches for Christmas. Thank you again.
Good idea... I think they'll look great.
That’s beautiful Marion
So pretty and so sweet !

Oh Barbara... I wish I could see what you have been doing. It sounds lovely!
Another beautiful page, you made the Daisy look so easy , I'm looking forward to trying it❤
You can do it Gillian.
I'm in love with it ❤❤❤❤
My mind is churning, thinking about other ways to use this beautiful technique. I’m thinking of raised scales on a reptile, or the body of a dragonfly or butterfly, or even a pine cone! Thank you Marion!
Lots of lovely possibilities ☺️
I have “vintage” embroidery floss that came from my grandmother. It is noticeably thicker. I especially love the pretty paper labels around them.
It's so lovely to use the old threads and fabric. I also have things from my Mam and Grandma too...

It was a lovely page, I have been trying to do the other flower , but I found it hard but I do know how to do needle weaving. You are very clever
Thanks Fay. Really it's just years and years of practice... I got interested as a child and just didn't stop stitching things.
Absolutely lovely Marion but my heart was in my mouth when you were cutting the daisy out in case you cut those wonderful petals but as usual everything was perfect.
It did actually go through my head...what if I cut a petal whilst I'm filming.... Luckily it was fine..😅

You are a wonder.
