  1. Hooray! I am so glad you are teaching these various stitches. I learned a lot of these with 365 Days of Granny Square, but when there are patterns that call for different or difficult stitches, I have to look them up on you tube, now I can just view yours.

    You are one of the best teachers out there! Go Nadia!

  2. Hi am not sure where to contact you ,i would like to know if you would or could do a tutorial video on the Ravelry Blue Star pattern by Kathy Blakely published May 1998
