Seven days have passed, making it Wednesday once again. This time we’re hinting at upcoming events we’re doing with Sassy Jacks Stitchery and Hands Across the Sea Samplers, Christine psychoanalyzes Gary (it’s scary), and we answer the question, Where do you put your hoop hardware? We hope you enjoy the show. Sunday’s guest is Nicola Parkman and she’ll show up Friday night.–Gary and Christine
Jean Farish, designer, teacher, stitcher, and stitching cruise director, joins us this week for a fascinating conversation about stitching in general; her early days in the hobby, including a TV show she once did; stitching cruises and what it’s like to participate; and we go back to the early days of her blog to re-visit some advice and tips she still uses today. No matter what kind of stitching you do, you’ll learn something from Jean Farish.–Gary and Christine

Debbie Rowley is one of the top charted-canvas needlepoint designers in the hobby and it’s always a treat to have a conversation with her.

Listeners also have a chance to win a set of Hands Across The Sea greeting cards by helping us make a list of good movies that you can watch while stitching without having to look up all of the time.
