Hi again beena. I like to do business with you. Where do you live? I want to know the name of the store and where in Palestine? Many thanks and hope to hear from you.

[monaaa200]

Hi beenabop. I am originally from Egypt I had learned the cross stitching from the nuns in school. I just want to know where in Egypt do you buy your dmc floss? Hope to hear from you.

[BeenaBop]

@monaaa200 hello Mona I'm not sure where to buy thread in Egypt, I got mine from Palestine =). They sell these DMC threads in fabric/sewing shops I assume they would have the same type of fabric stores in Egypt as well =) hope you are able to find them :)

I absolutely adore the second pillow you're working on. Is it at all possible to get the pattern for it and the colors you used for it?

[buttonchain]

[RromaBoi]

I love your work, Im from Romania and I love alot of geometric art Romania and the ME have that in common our work is mostly done in Red Black and White I will share a pattern I have that you might like that I made its very similar w/ the black pillow your working on if you like. Great JOB !!!

[BeenaBop]

@RromaBoi thank you so much =) thats really cool that Romanian needlework is similar to middle eastern needlework i never knew that hehe. Yes i'd love to see your needle work =) thank you

[Chresaundra]

[TheCatGirl2303]

wow! i discovered your channel and im so impressed! You like the exact same things I do, only that you have better nails, so you can actually do designs on them. Mine are always short grrr! lol Also, I thought I was the only person that could sew by hand great but suck at the machine sewing! Glad Im not alone! :)) Hope to see more videos from you. I wish you the best of luck oxox

[tayfan2]

Your work is inspiring!

[oneewish]

I love your work. I used to do crosstitching... but i have a question.. How do you follow the pattern when you dn't have the pattern outlined on the fabric?

[BeenaBop]

its really simple i just count the stitches and replicate it =) its the same like following a pattern from a book ^_^

[teresah1982]

basically u find the centre of the fabric and put ur needle in the hole then find the centre of the patern and do that stitch on the facric,then u count the stitches and replicate that on the fabric,also i use a highlighter pen to mark off whati have done on the pattern so also if i make a mistake i can still c where i went wrong.

[Chykara]

very very nice!

[BeenaBop]

thank you ^_^

[flipchickjsp]

wow my friend does this I don't have the patience..haha

she has a hard time following the ones that have a pattern with the cloth I can't believe you do it freehand AMAZING!

your designs remind me of Native American or Filipino blanket weaving so gorgeous!

[Opnd12]

Wow I Love Your Work! Your So Good At It

[leann2662]

Love the nails!!!

[aprilbutterfli]

[chocolate12u]

[sssyyydddney]

u should make one for a give away (: just an idea

[BeenaBop]

i might ;) ya never know hehe

[skinlikbutta]

Beautiful work

[AndrezaAmira]

i love to do this too , waooo , congratulation

[grekanda29]

Wow - you're talented in so many ways, BeenaBop! The second pillow top is awesome!!! Actually they're ALL beautiful :)

Do you draw the pattern on the fabric before you begin?

[BeenaBop]

Aw thank you greka =) you're so sweet!! No i don't draw a pattern, i just follow a pattern by counting the stitches(the x's) and i usually start from the very middle of the fabric so its even on all sides =)

[unicornmagics]

I like doing this too :)

[DoorisOvi]

These are beautiful! I love the way you combine tradition with so modern fresh colors in 4:20 design. I love yarns almost as much as nail polish bottles. Color therapy at its best :)

[lidiam84]

I can do that too!! But I do it differently... like with needles... my parents are both portugues... so it's like tradition... and I haven't done this in years!! :s so I wonder if I remember!

[neddie58]

very nice job

[vitaR86]

That is so awesome. I'm pretty decent with a sewing machine but I've never done any kitting or cross stitching. That's definitely something I'm interested in doing.

[ShellV88]

oh and one more thing...where did you find the black cross stitch fabric? ive been looking everywhere for them and i only find mostly white and creamy yellow.

[BeenaBop]

thank you ^_^..well i got my black fabric from the middle east. I haven't seen it sold in the US,unfortunately, you can try online though maybe ebay might have some.

[KweenOfBeeuty]

@BeenaBop

are u middle eastern???

[BeenaBop]

@KweenOfBeeuty yes, i'm half Palestinian =)

[lidiam84]

Sorry to interupt... I'm gonna let you finish... but Ebay has the best stuff of all time! :p u can find almost everything on ebay! The only thing I think you won't find on ebay is ur lost dog.

[theblacknred]

@BeenaBop where r u originally from??

ans if not too personal

[BeenaBop]

i'm from the US..my dad is from Palestine and my Mom is American so i'm half n half hehe
