Fiber Talk Midweek Chat, 2-3-21

We’re halfway to the weekend and Debbie and Gary are doing the chatting. Our focus is on online classes and how the technology and human dynamics are changing and will change the hobby, even after the pandemic. In our view, the changes will be long-lasting and help make needlework accessible to more people. We also talk about a free sampler download from Amanda Rowe, The Solitary Stitcher (Download Mary Jane Fry 1861 at wetalkfiber.com/mjf1861) and a new Cosmo thread club at Sassy Jacks Stitchery (20 skeins/month for $21 plus shipping. FTCOSMO gets you an additional five skeins of Fiber Talk Blues colors with first order). The link wetalkfiber.com/cosmo will be active in the next couple of days so you can join the club. Join us tonight for our Embroiderers Guild Galleries tour of the Festival of Lace at 8:00 p.m. Eastern on the Fiber Talk YouTube channel. Sunday’s guest: Jane Dunnewold-—Debbie and Gary

Fiber Talk with Jan Hicks

This week’s guest is Jan Hicks of Jan Hicks Creates. Jan is a talented needleworker and designer who produces always-interesting FlossTube videos. In our conversation, we talk about a variety of things, including Jan’s background and her approach to needlework design, various ways in which she is inspired, converting photography and her son’s art to cross-stitch designs, her “regular” cross-stitch designs, and various aspects of full-coverage stitching, and pros and cons of Cosmo and Missus Sedas threads. We hope you enjoy learning about the many talents of Jan Hicks.–Gary
