    Your voice brought back fond memories of my neighbor who was from Holland . She was an older lady and taught me to crosstitch, knit sweaters and make quark tarts . She has since passed away and I miss her dearly . She sang Dutch songs to our youngest child ,!

    Hiya 🌞, IMO your accent is delightful- English is a difficult language at the best of times!- lf we could all speak Dutch half as well it would make for interesting chats! Love how you show us how to save on the fabric also😊l have some lovely brocade pieces that l will incorporate so as to make for memory gifts for the family so we can reminisce and keep as memories in the future!Also like how you show possible mistakes and how to correct them. Best wishes for 2024,and to all here, J.I.M.K Mrs. Brisbane, Australia 🇦🇺 ♥ 😀

    Please don't worry about not knowing the exact words. I absolutely love your accent and I can completely understand what you are saying. Thank you for your videos. I watched a lady make these but the way she measured her lines was absolutely confusing and I couldn't see what she was doing on top of that. So I'm very thankful for your video. I have always wanted to make these and now I can thanks to you.

    Another trick to keep short pins from coming out. Take a square of cardboard and put a small amount of glue on it as you are ready to stick the pen first dip the point of the pen into the glue and then into the ball. It will dry and secure it better into the ball.
