Fiber Talk with Mary Corbet V

For the fifth time, we have the distinct pleasure of an hour of needle arts conversation with Mary Corbet. Among the many subjects we discussed are our favorite stitching tools, Mary’s new studio, her summer classes and upcoming teaching plans, new designs from Needle ‘n Thread, stitching ergonomics, stitching on silk gauze, and Mary’s very popular Stitcher’s Christmas giveaways. We also got visited by a train! Enjoy the conversation.–Gary and Christine

As promised, Winterthur’s Linda Eaton returns, this time to talk about some of her favorite subjects, centered around whether needlework is art, the history of art and the role of women, how needlework fit and didn’t fit in art history, clothing embroidery, and a little bit about the upcoming “Costuming The Crown” exhibition. Linda Eaton is Winterthur’s John L. & Marjorie P. McGraw Director of Collections & Senior Curator of Textiles.–Gary and Christine
