Thank you
I was wondering where you buy your felted wool and where you found the little plastic balls for the thread balls? Thanks
Hi Verna. Unfortunately I am not sure where this instructor purchased her supplies, however you can find various types, sizes and color of felted wool through many retailers online.

Dear Joyce,
Thank you for contacting us. I am sorry to hear that you are having trouble viewing the videos.
The first thing is to make sure you are logged into your membership.
I have logged into your account and was able to open the successfully.
Below are a few things to try that I hope will resolve the problem.
Please review each of these steps to make sure your device is set up for the best viewing results.
1. Our video content is best when viewed on a computer/smart phone manufactured in the past couple of years with a good broadband Internet connection (not dial-up).
2. Delete your internet history. Most web browsers use a feature called “caching” to display frequently used information, images, and web resources. Caching stores or “caches” this information on your computer so your computer doesn’t have to download the same information every time it visits the same webpage. Caching makes subsequent visits to the same website or webpage faster. In some cases, caching may have undesirable results. If a website or webpage has been updated since your last visit, your browser sees the update and then loads the new content instead of the old cached content. Sometimes however, this doesn’t work as expected and your browser displays the old information instead. To clear your cache, please click the below link and select the appropriate browser:

3. The latest versions of Chrome or Windows Edge are recommended, Internet Explorer and Firefox browsers work as well. Please try accessing your membership within a different browser. Here are a few options to try:
a. https://www.google.com/chrome/browser/
b. https://microsoft-edge.en.softonic.com/
c. http://internet_explorer.en.downloadastro.com/
d. http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
4. Please try accessing your membership from a different device. This will help us determine if the issue is with our website or specific to your device.
5. Check to make sure your anti-virus software is not blocking our website. Unblock all websites.
6. Make sure that your router’s software is up-to-date. You could also change the router channel and this is most helpful when you are running a 2.4GHz frequency because these can get congested with other appliances.
7. Make sure that you do not have too many devices in your location using the internet at the same time (for example: cell phones, baby monitors, household appliances, etc.), due to the internet provider.
After the above check list is complete, please try viewing the videos again. If the problem is still not resolved:
1. If possible, send us a screen shot of the error message.
2. Unfortunately, if it is a software (or hardware) issue, your problem may exceed our knowledge and area of expertise. Therefore, we recommend contacting the maker of your software (or hardware). You can try searching online, too, as many manufactures have solutions to common problems listed on their website.
If you are still having trouble, contact us at 1-855-706-3538, or chat with us on our site, so we can further assist you.
We appreciate your business and will work hard to help you resolve this issue.
Sincerely,
Joan

I’m trying to find a source for the silk thread with beads and sequins already on the threads. Can’t find them online. Any suggestions? Thanks. I loved this video and learned many little helpful details.
Hello JoAnn,
While I was unable to find thread that already has beads and sequins on it- I was able to find this yarn:
