Fiber Talk Midweek Chat, 11-14-18

It’s Wednesday and Gary is flying solo again. Topics are Bendy’s charity efforts, buying too many things, converting a hobby to a business, and regaining stitching motivation. It’s a stream of consciousness that will be food for thought or make you want to go watch Survivor. We’ll see. Sunday’s guest: Laura Mina, conservator at Winterthur.

Debbie Rowley’s Ablaze design.
Wednesday has arrived on schedule and we’re doing more of that needlework chit chat. This week it’s more about what to do with used charts, copyrights, and Trish Burr counterfeits (don’t buy them). We also talk about the tremendous charity work being done by Michelle “Bendy Stitchy” Garrette. This month she’s raising money for childhood apraxia research. Sunday’s guest: Susan O’Connor, editor, Inspirations magazine.

Arlene Cohen’s Coloris testing.

It’s amazing how Wednesday shows up at this time every week. Do not fear. We are prepared with an other Midweek Chat. Christine’s paying job in the way this week so Arlene Cohen of Works by ABC was kind enough to fill in for a conversation about FlossTube techniques, Coloris, stitching history, Jane Wood, Arlene’s design work, and Sarah Braizear. Sunday’s guest: Theresa Venette, Shakespeare’s Peddler.
