It’s Wednesday to that means it’s mid-week chat time. Subjects this week include Arlene Cohen’s latest video, Arlene’s lace collar, needlework-history books, dirty needlework, battery-powered stitching lamps, and a Watercolours question from Christine. We hope you enjoy the show and will tell others. Sunday’s guests are Preston and Grace Lynch of 2Sisters Needlepoint.–Gary and Christine
Listen to the podcast:
- Jane Wood’s Chilly Hollow Needlepoint Adventure post about stitching lamps
- Arlene Cohen’s latest video
You mentioned on the podcast that you would be in Princeton soon. I worked in Princeton for years and if you are looking for a great local place for breakfast, I recommend PJ’s Pancake House on Nassau Street.
Another fun, informative episode. But they’re never long enough! 🙂
Thanks for listening. We were in a time crunch this week. We’ll talk more next Wednesday. 😉

Oh, just kidding. Your podcasts could *never* be long enough for me.
I want to share with you what I use for magnification with a light:

(Hopefully the link will work.) I use Foster Grant reading glasses with LED lights. The batteries are almost as expensive as the glasses, but you can find cheap batteries also. Just a thought….
thanks Gary and Christine for another very informative podcast. What do you do when you hit a stitching slump?? I am having problems getting motivated even though there is lots of stitching I want to do!!!
You both are just awesome – thanks for the mention :-). Glad my lace provided such amusement, Gary. I just posted a new Flosstube, where you will see how I finally decided to wear it. So love knowing that you enjoyed seeing some things from my bookshelf. Plenty of books are inspired by recommendations from Mary Corbet (with one t). Also, just sharing that the certification program that you mentioned to Christine, thinking that there would be research papers to be found online? They are not available, so she shouldn’t waste her time trying to find them. I can explain more if either of you wish to know.
