The Delaware panel and the people who are stitching it are the focus of this week’s show.Amy Gilley (l) and Becky Gutin (r), are co-chairs of the America’s Tapestry Delaware project.The Embroiderers’ Guild of America (egausa.org) is sponsoring this week’s show about the America’s Tapestry Delaware project. In our June 7, 2025 show, we met Stefan Romero, creator of the America’s Tapestry project. The purpose of the project is to celebrate America’s 250th anniversary with stitched panels from each of the 13 colonies that tell little-known stories about America’s formative days. To learn all of the details, listen to that initial show with Stefan. This week, we meet with Stefan and Delaware co-chairs Becky Gutin and Amy Gilley to learn how they mapped out how to stitch the Delaware panel, their approach to making it possible for needleworkers of all skill levels to contribute to the panel, and what a stitching session is like. To keep up with the projects in all 13 colonies, visit americastapestry.com. To follow the Delaware project, join their Facebook group and/or follow them on Instagram. All links are listed below. Also, if you want to support the overall project beyond stitching, visit the America’s Tapestry website for details.—Gary
