Introducing Fiber Talk Starters

Please support our Fiber Talk Starters sponsor Shepherd’s Needle.

Fiber Talk starters is a new series, sponsored by Shepherd’s Needle, in which Vonna and Gary break down the stitching process into small segments. This twice-monthly series is designed to help beginners, experienced stitchers looking to venture into new areas, and people who simply want a refresher. Our first episode looks at the various ground cloths used for cross stitch, needlepoint, and surface embroidery. We invite you to send questions or offer suggestions for future topics. Write to us at [email protected] or [email protected].

You can find the Starters videos at wetalkfiber.com/starters and on our YouTube channel.

2020 Nashville Market New Designs

The 2020 Nashville Market, the largest show in the needlework world, will be held March 6 to 8 in Nashville, TN. This is the show that most designers target for their best designs of the year. Needlework shop owners attend, purchase the the latest charts, and bring them home to stock their stores, to offer at Nashville Market events, and to fill pre-orders.  At the link below, you will see many of the latest designs. If you find some you like, contact Fiber Talk sponsors or your local needlework store and pre-order. When your favorite shop owner returns from the Nashville Market, you’ll be able to pick up the latest charts and start stitching.
