I found you guys about a month ago and have been listening to your back episodes and loving it! I recently had physical therapy for carpal tunnel and can hand stitch again and I’m so excited by everything you guys are introducing me to – especially the flosstube universe! Anyway, Gary’s projects: 1.Anasazi Song 2. Elizabethan Treasures 3. Sarah Parr sampler
Enjoy listening !! Gary’s projects…..Anasazi song, Elizabethan Treasures, Sarah Parr 1825 Hope you enjoy all these projects!! I am planning on starting one of the sister’s samplers on JAn 1 2018!!! Can I ask if Christine is doing DMC or silk and what fabric did she choose. I live just north of Binghamton by about 1.5 hrs. I have never been to stitchery Row but it is on my bucket list. I go to A Stitcher’s Garden in Fayetteville. I also know there are shops in Rochester, Canandaigua and Bid FLats….so there are a bunch within a few hour radius!!! Lisa email:[email protected]
It is always fun to stitch multiple pieces at once! Anasazi Song Elizabethan Treasures Sarah Parr 1825 Make sure Christine posts pictures on Instagram!
Been listening for a while, Mary Corbet is the one who turned me on to your podcast. I am always working on multiple projects. Have fun working on Anasazi’s Song, Elizabethan Treasures and the Sarah Parr 1825 sampler. Great name by the way – Sarah
I enjoy your podcasts very much and they allow me to stitch vicariously when work demands prohibit needle time.
Like both of you, I have several projects going at once. Gary, I look forward to seeing progress pics of Elizabethan Treasures, Sarah Parr 1825 Sampler, and Anasazi Song.
Christine, please do post more pictures on IG. Love seeing your work, too.
Hi Christine, Agree with what you say about surface embroidery and wanting to turn and bend the piece as you work. BUT, I think you will still find having two hands gives you better precision for needle placement. The way the Royal School of Needlework teachers, students etc, solve this is through the use of a seat frame. The frame is secured with your thigh, but you can still swivel and bend the hoop. Its an inexpensive tool and indispensable for surface embroidery! The one the RSN sells is called Elbesee – which you can also find on Amazon and lots of other places. It comes with three sizes of hoops too. There is also a table clamp version, but I personally find the “Seat” version to be more versatile (when you don’t have a table, for example). Good luck!
Liked the sound of the xmas stitchery which Christine purchased from stitchery row. Tried to see at their website, o luck. Also emailed them and so far no reply. Can we get the exact name of the stitchery please? Thanks.

It’s hard to stitch if you can’t see well and, for most of us, seeing well requires a good pair of glasses. This week, in a show sponsored by CyberPointers, Kelly Lea Teske returns to help us better understand how to make the most of our next visit to the eye doctor and the optician. […]
