Jenifer is experiencing several new stitches as she creates her needle roll.The middle of the week is on schedule and that prompted Jenifer and Gary to gather and discuss some stitching things. Our topics include caskets, the Fiber Talk Needle Arts Weekend retreat (sign up at wetalkfiber.com/weekend), the Jackie du Plessis ornament available at Sassy Jacks, more things Jenifer learned during her week with Sue Spargo, Jenifer’s wool applique needle roll project, and our list of suggestions for holiday gifts you can give to your needlework friends. We think we came up with a good list of inexpensive gifts that are also easily mailed. Sunday’s guest: Birgit Tolman of The Wishing Thorn.–Jenifer and Gary
