I finally did it!!!

Lizzie Violet

Hello all!

I finally did it. I finally videoed and posted my first video on YouTube. It’s an intro video talking about what the channel’s going to be about.

I have another video coming soon. I also filmed that today and it’ll be my first vlog style video. Please subscribe to my channel. I would love it if you did and it would really help me out.

Latest Project

Lizzie Violet

Hello all. Recently, I started working on vintage-style felt broaches. I’ve been obsessed with them for some time now. I’ve been researching how to cut them out by hand and on the Cricut. I’m going to try out a Cricut one sometime in the near future.

The ones on the YouTube short are from Bobo Bun’s Sewing Club. You can join her over on Patreon! These were so fast and fun to make! I want to make a few more colours and will grab more felt at some point this week.

I’m FINALLY ready to film my own content and that begins next week! As I mentioned before, the first few will be vlogs. I am still working on what needs to be done for the Haslam series.
