Spiral Rose - PATTERN & VIDEO

I know I've been promising the step-outs for Spiral Rose for a while, but I've been......ah..........distracted. The pitfalls of a short attention span. hahaha

Today finally, I have it ready to share with you, and in case you are scratching your head and are all like....."huh, spiral what?".........
Here's the step-out:
I think these rose patterns have been a bit of a flash back to 90's folk art painting. Pretty sure I'm done now.

Here's the video:


As a rare treat (in which you may read "treat" to actually mean "cruel and unusual punishment"), I am subjecting you to some narration in this video. It's been a few years since I've talked in a video as I really hate my voice - I pretty much "broke" it 10 years ago when I had whooping cough and after months of intense nightly coughing I damaged my voice permanently, practically losing it for a year. It's never been the same since. Though, to be fair, it was pretty awful before too. hahahaha.

I am interested to know - are captions or spoken instructions more helpful for you? I can't guarantee that I'll always narrate the videos as it takes much longer to produce them but, as always, the feedback is useful to me, and I will not be offended at all if you say you prefer captions :)

In some other "blog" news, I discovered (thank you Bonnie!) that if you try to reply to my blog feed emails they have been going to a noreply email address. Not sure how this happened, but I have changed the setting so you should now be able to reply to my emails again and they will come to me rather than going to the big interwebs noreply mailbox.

You have all given me a lot to think about with regard to full or update editions to the pattern folio each year. I did want to mention though, if you prefer to print your copy but don't like wasting all that paper - you can just print selected pages (i.e. only the new patterns). The exact settings to do this depend on your specific printer, but it is generally very easy to do.

Have a great day!
