This week we are joined by the talented and skilled needleworker and teacher Robin-Ann Rossignol. Our conversation focuses on needlework techniques, color and tools you can use to guide color choices, changing colors to those that you like, what you can learn from trying other techniques, and a variety of other topics that may help you improve your stitching and/or get more joy out of it. Have pen and paper ready as you listen. You’ll likely want to make notes.–Beth and Gary
