Vonna finished these.We made it to the middle of the week and decided to get together for another chat. As always, this Wednesday gathering is sponsored by Sassy Jacks Stitchery. We talk about our Easter Stitchathon, upcoming SALs, and continue our discussion about needlework things we haven’t done but want to do. We were only able to cover two of the items–hardanger and gold work–because we had a lot to say about them. Join us for another fun conversation and be sure to put our Easter Stitchathon on your calendar. It will be live from noon to 6:00 p.m. Eastern on our Youtube channel.–Gary and Vonna

Great chat guys. Gary if you’re thinking of starting goldwork soon, coincidentally just yesterday Sarah Homfray (RSN trained) added a new video to her Youtube channel all about explaining goldwork/metal threads. It looks really useful. Also to go with it she’s put a downloadable info chart about which metal threads to use for what, on her website. I love her work and she does some fabulous videos. Cheers.

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. […]
