Note, the video linked below is a new version with all of the audio. If you listened to the previous version and weren’t able to hear the final 10 min., jump to the 30 min. mark in this one to hear that discussion. Sorry for the hassle and confusion. Gary

It’s day one of the Queen’s Sampler Project, sponsored by Sassy Jacks Stitchery. While we’re starting the project today, the first video applies to anyone, whether you’re interested in the Queen’s Sampler or not. In the video we talk about how we set up linen and threads for any project. Maybe there’s a tip in it for you? In addition, you’ll learn the proper arm motion for ironing linen, which is a valuable thing to know. If you want to do the project with us, call Kim at Sassy Jacks to buy your kit at a discounted price. Also, go to the Shop page to buy your Fiber Talk needle minders.–Gary and Vonna

Fiber Talk Midweek Chat, 5-1-19

It’s Wednesday once again and I have a very different show for you this week. First, a short podcast update about what has transpired for me in the past week in terms of needlework. Then, the main element this week is a video I recorded with Linda Vinson of Needlemade Designs in which we explore, in quite a bit of detail, her version of Darleen O’Steen’s The Queen’s Sampler. I hope you enjoy the video and our conversation. This isn’t your standard cross-stitch sampler. Far from it. It’s a multi-technique work of art stitched by a master stitcher. I’m excited to provide this video and welcome your reactions. Sunday’s guest: Kim Young of Sassy Jacks Stitchery–Gary
