I'm always blown away by your attention to detail and this is no exception. Everything is stunning. I want one to play with! Making the bed, rearranging the mattresses, hiding secrets in the drawer, putting the princess in different insomniac poses! Oh my word, the joy would be endless! Thank you so much for sharing your treasures. You are a master. 😊❤
Hello Sarah!! What a stunningly beautiful & unique work of art!! That’s worthy of a beautiful custom made glass display box - for you home or art studio!! But if you ever have a granddaughter - her bedroom would be a perfect place for her imagination to blossom!! Have you ever considered displaying it in a Children’s Museum or a Historically Beautiful Library?? How proud you must be of this project!! I’m sure everyone in your apprentice class admired this piece as you probably equally admired their pieces!! What a challenging & technical course😱😬😊🤗👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻💕!! Thank you creating this video to share -I totally loved every moment of it💕!!
Dear Sarah, I just saw this video. What a lovely peace of Art this is. So many hours of work! I love it and enjoyed every bit of it! Thank you again for showing us. Tineke
So glad you showed us the close ups, this deserves to be on show, dont keep it hidden, get a nice glass cabinet to display it 😉💖 (my order arrived safely thank you)
Oh wow! Sarah, you've done it again... this is simply stunning. Your design, planning and construction is fabulous and I hope you got a h-u-g-e amount of satisfaction and pleasure out of the whole project, 'cos I certainly did watching it. What next???🤭💜
AH-MAY-ZING! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing this! All the little details are fantastic! You certainly have a treasure for the ages! Stay safe.
Yes I love the planning process too and doing a similar thing as making a journal with all the things that inspire me for my embroidery so lots of cut outs, fabric plus the embroidery itself 😊 thank you for sharing this amazing piece ❤
Sarah, this is truly beautiful, and all the plans and diagrams too, interested to know about your engineering background. This stimulates my interest in the world of miniature and I would be interested to know if you ever consider doing an online course in this sort of 3D embroidery. I love it, plus the sketch and workbooks too.❤👍
Thank you Elaine! I did a mechanical engineering apprenticeship but it wasn't really for me although it's suprising how it can be useful! I might do a video on the small box which shows you all the basics...
Absolutely stunning. Your attention to detail is incredible. Thank you for sharing. You need to put it out on display in a glass cabinet, not hidden away in a box. It's a work of art.
Now I'm off on the hunt to find tutorials that will help me in making something similar. Detailed work like this is right up my alley. You inspire so many of us in so many ways and we thank you!
Let me know if you find anything Susan, I would be interested to see! The RSN has a book on Embroidered Boxes which is basically the techniques the bed is made around
@@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery I started with box construction and found one video but it was only video, no audio. It was okay but very basic. I haven't looked at the other components. Could you share a link to the book or pricier the name of it?
@@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery thank you! Best deal is on Amazon and it's available for sale day delivery! Thank you, again, for sharing your knowledge and talent!
Absolutely fantastic! I so enjoyed seeing this. I have loved tiny things since I was a child and this is one of the most fascinating I’ve seen. Well done you!
Absolutely delightful Sarah - not sure how I missed this video when it came out. LOVE IT and, like Tracy Rain, who commented previously - I also want one to play with !!
Extraordinary project Sarah! Wonderful to see first your design book and then your video, so I could begin to understand the various elements and how they all work together. Delightful!!
Just brilliant Sarah!!! So very well done!!! I’ve made handmade books and this reminds me of all the accurate measurements. How lovely you made yourself a book with your ideas and vision, and then to bring it to fruition!! Thank you so very much for sharing Sarah!!
I've made miniature furniture and houses for years and now I'm keeping myself busy with embroidery so this video was right up my alley. I really enjoyed hearing about your process which is much like something I would do. Thank you for sharing Sarah. Loved this!
Wow Sarah such a lot of work and truly something to be proud of. There is a little joke in our family that I am just like the Princess and the pea story. I just cannot stand anything in my bed that shouldn't be there. Thank you for sharing your project and learning a little more about you.
So amazing! Love to see all the attention to detail as well as your extensive documentation and research! It’s super helpful to see how you planned this work out. I’m always recutting board because I’m off by a pencil line width!
OMG!! This is sooooo cool! My mother always read us fairy tales and because I'm so sensitive my mother called me Princess and the Pea. I'm going to have to do this although there's no way I'll be doing all that math! Yikes! Just awesome Sarah which, BTW is my middle name and is my first daughter's name. 🥰
@@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery LOL!! She did a lot of things, and I love her for them good or bad, but nope she never put peas in my bed, only on my dinner plate. 🥰👍
I think it should go on display in a museum it’s so beautiful! I was very interested in your planning stage. I do a lot of needlework and bookbinding and mini albums. I think I should try doing slightly more planning than I do now (but not quite as much as yours!🤭). 😊 Were you allowed to machine sew the mattresses or did you hand sew everything? Thank you for sharing this with us. 🌹Rosie of Oz🇦🇺 & 🐶Omega the Cavalier🐶
Was so excited when I saw you had posted this earlier today that I saved it until tonight so I could enjoy every moment in peace, and what a treat it has truly been, absolutely fascinating and absolutely superb, what a wonderful piece of work, thank you so much for sharing it. Can I ask a question please, is the whole thing "sewn" together, or did you need to glue "any" of it?, thank you.
It's all sewn Rebecca which is why I think it's still in good shape after all these years! I did glue the big gold ball on the top but don't tell anyone...:)
Oh wow Sarah!, thank you, that's even more amazing, I can only imagine how technically demanding it was to sew all that together so perfectly (I know how totally useless I am with a curved needle!), a totally superb, beautiful piece of work, I really enjoyed learning about it, thank you.
Oh wow that wounds amazing Becky! I hope the light worked on top..:) Do you have a picture up of it anywhere? Please feel free to share a link so that we can all see it!
@@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery I do have some pictures. In a terrible act of shameless self promotion (sorry) they are on my website astitchinquine.co.uk/gallery-year-3.html Sadly the light didn't work, but is big enough to fit a thimble! Much like yours it spends most of its time wrapped up and somewhere safe.
Incredible work, you should have it on show in a clear box somewhere, seems a shame to hide it away. Saying that though this is the first video of yours I have watched so you may have others on show and can't display all of them!
Thank you for watching Suzy! We have lots more videos (over 200!) so do check those out I'm sure you will find something to interest you. I have approaching somewhere in the order of 300 pieces of embroidery so I definitley need a bigger wall!
Golly! Jaw dropping, isn't it. What we can call an heirloom piece. Shame it's in a box instead of played with..... but that's my opinion and I didn't dedicate 181 hours of composition to its creation. Applause....
Wow this is just stunning. So interesting to see all your planning. Did you do the embroidery on the silk before covering the pieces of board and how did you then manage to get it so precise ?
Yes I did the embroidery first lesley. Check out my Indian elephant Vlog to see how I work through an embroidery piece from start to finish and get it so precise!
@@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery I am constantly thinking about the process, revising in my head. I don't think people understand how much engineering goes into art and how critical it is that we know our materials.
No princess has ever had such attention to detail in the construction of her royal bed. This is fantastic, Sarah. Thank you for sharing it with us. 👑
I am speechless! You have made an heirloom! Love it! Wow!
I hope your grade was/is a 30!
I can't remember what I got! I'll have to go and look now...:)
Wow this is a thing of pure beauty 😍
I'm always blown away by your attention to detail and this is no exception. Everything is stunning. I want one to play with! Making the bed, rearranging the mattresses, hiding secrets in the drawer, putting the princess in different insomniac poses! Oh my word, the joy would be endless! Thank you so much for sharing your treasures. You are a master. 😊❤
I seem to remember there was quite a bit of mattress rearranging in order to get the colour cominations to look right Tracy!
Beautifully said Tracy. Xx 💕💕

You should be proud, delightful, beautiful work. Xx
That is genuinely gorgeous. I want to make a full tester bed for my dolls, but its not going to be as incredible as this fantastic work of art!
Wow, this is so stunning Sarah. You are so talented. I really enjoyed being shown your work of art. Thank you so much. Xx 💕💕
Thank you Jacqui!
Wow! You did an incredible job, Sarah. All those tiny details are mind blowing. I would definitely keep this out to admire.
Wow! Just wow!
Stunning! Love that story and your princess and the pea!
.....and well deserved too Sarah 👏👏💜

Fantastic on your engineering skills a clever lady as it really shows in your detailed drawings 😀
All I. An say is wow such detail in the planning and such a sumptuous piece
Absolutely stunning. Your attention to detail is incredible. Thank you for sharing. You need to put it out on display in a glass cabinet, not hidden away in a box. It's a work of art.

Delightful! \i used to be a bookbinder, but found the occasional need for box-msking s huge trial,,,!
You need to display this in your Curios Cabinet, Sarah!
It's magnificent! Don't hide it away.

I’m in awe of the attention to detail but the bed is absolutely worth all that effort👏👏Is the planning extra to the 130-180 hours ?
The planning is inlcuded in that time although making the inspiration book at the beginning was probably extra Karin!
Golly! Jaw dropping, isn't it. What we can call an heirloom piece. Shame it's in a box instead of played with..... but that's my opinion and I didn't dedicate 181 hours of composition to its creation. Applause....
