It’s Wednesday and the chatting resumes, this time with The Twisted Stitcher, Vonna Pfeiffer, who is filling in for Christine. We covered a lot of ground including what Gary and Vonna are stitching, switching from cross stitch to needlepoint, buying large quantities of linen and thread, and Stitch Mania and the Internet in general and what they mean for the hobby. We also discuss the Sarah Braizear SAL. Did Vonna cave? Is she going to stitch Sarah Braizear? Sunday’s guest: Caroline Hauffe, Off The Grid Needlearts.–Gary and Christine

It was so exciting to see something that I stitched (“Music Wings”) on your podcast site today. I first heard about Vonna’s finishing service on an earlier Fiber Talk show, so the circle is complete. Vonna is a pleasure to work with, and her finishing is perfection.
As always, I loved the show!
Thanks for making my day –

Shirley,
Thanks for listening and glad we could feature your Music Wings piece. Beautiful stitching and, of course, finishing perfection by Vonna. Who is the designer? I may have to own that chart.
Gary
Thanks, Gary! I stitched it for my daughter-in-law’s mother, a musician and church choir director.
Music Wings is designed by Ursula Michael of Imaginating.
