I got a few of those wood frames and I love them the hole in the middle is so you can put it on a holder I have one tablestand and one floorstand

[papermoon]

That tab is so you can slip like the end labels on it to id the color.

I bought those floss drops and they have film on both sides… I do love them!!! I do love my bags I got from them!!! I also purchased the rings that are cord with a screw and loved them. The knitting needle covers work well for the scissors

[krystinatremblay]

I got the 14ct from temu and i am stitching on it, it's good, but i wash and wash before use and it became much softer

[lucycraft]

Really enjoyed the video…you did a review of items very well and it was great to see what is out there. I’ll have to check out what they have as I’ve not used Temu in the past. Thanks!! (Glad you are feeling better)

[sunrise]

Hi Ailarra! Thank you for the review of the Temu supplies. I haven't tried them yet but have been happy with the cross stitch stuff from Ali Express. I miss your floss tubes so come back as soon as you can and film an update but no pressure. I am sick yet again with mucus and cough but have an appointment for an ENT specialist on the 4th so hopefully will get some answers. Take care my friend. Dawn in Texas

[cynthiajfuller]

I just found your channel and I really appreciate the reviews you did on Temu. I have purchased some things from them and mostly have been pleased with what it was especially for the price. I haven't tried the nurge hoop type which is the square hoop that you showed. I will be trying that because it's a better price than amazon. I look forward to your next videos and if you get any more stuff from Temu I'd love to hear your opinion

[zanxstitch]

I know that there is a negative stigma about ordering from sites like Temu, but for some people in the world it is the only option. Normal stitchy things come to us at 10x the price if not more and our LNSs have all closed as they cant keep up with the exchange rate and shipping costs. I an so grateful for this video as i will need to make an order soon and was concerned about some of the items.

[kaylitentstitch]

Im scared to get Temu as Aliexpress already floods my phonewith messages and/alerts 😄🤣😆
I dont think theres things wrong with supplies from those place because over half the time when you get atuff off amazon, they have bought that atock off those places.
I do love an estate sale though. The quality if frames from back in the day are such a treat to score
Amazing video as always❤❤❤❤

[dianemiller]

Had to stop watching this video. Love you, don’t love Temu. Will definitely be back for your next video.

[TheFlossWanderer]

Love the needles from temu. They are the only ones I use now. If you're ordering from temu you can claim a price adjustment for 30 days after. If temu drops the price of an item you get the cost difference back in store credit.

[sherrytolman]

I have only ordered once from this company and was pleased with my order. I wanted to make needle minders so I ordered some broaches and pendants to deconstruct and glue magnets to. While some didn’t work as well as I wanted, the quality of the items were nice. I now have some really sweet minders.

[Busymomstitcher]

Thanks for sharing. I have not order anything from Temu might have to give it a try.

[HeatherConfettiStitcher]

I just got a couple of kits from Temu but haven’t opened them yet

[kellibishop]

I haven’t heard the wrong side/right side about needles but that makes so much sense! Dumb question maybe, but how can you tell?

[Attia]

I bought that same scroll frame from Amazon, it was so cheap and I've used it for months now. I like it so far, I use the side holes to screw the frame directly to my K's Creation lapstand.

[staciemaeholmes]

I am so happy for the people that have had positive reactions to Temu and using CXC threads etc. The one time I ordered, my package got stolen from the delivery company (piggyship) but yet my husband orders all the time and he gets his items. Boo. Your video was nice though. :)

[sheryldoiron]

You should be very ashamed of yourself for enabling people lol. I bought almost everything you showed except the shirts, needle threader and Aida 😂😂

[KelsStitches]

Off to order some needles and knock off nurge frames. I trust your opinion so thank you for the honesty 🧵🐎🧡
