Taking a break from the action to post a couple of videos. Here’s what’s new from The Scarlett House, Shakespeare’s Peddler, and a special Rosewood Manor encore for listener Rose Rose.
Tanya Brockmeyer of The Scarlett House is going with a dog theme this year. In the video she shows a wide range of new designs, including Gary’s favorite Christmas design.
Theresa Venette of Shakespeare’s Peddler has several new designs including A Saviour’s Praise and Louisa Horsey 1836.
Listener Rose Rose requested a special viewing of one of the older Rosewood Manor designs, so Karen Kluba was happy to help out.
The shortest day (Friday night) of the 2019 Nashville Market has come to an end. Designers were busy and I was only able to record two videos. The first was with Kathy Barrick in which we get to see her two new stockings in addition to other designs. The other was with Karen Kluba of Rosewood Manor. Karen is offering a number of small and large designs, including Flowers of the Seasons, Christmas Quilts, and the impressive 101 Alphabets.
Julia Fletcher 1847 from The Scarlett HouseToday’s show is definitely different and a bit of an experiment. Gary and Vonna are devoting the entire show to some of the new designs being offered at the Nashville Market, March 1 to 3. While you can certainly simply listen to the podcast and get plenty out of it, we’re accompanying this show with a slide show of some of the designs we like and want to talk about. To see those designs while we talk about them, go to the page for this show at wetalkfiber.com. If you click on the slide show on the podcast page, you’ll see a larger version. Arrows on the left and right of each photo allow you to move through the slideshow. We hope you enjoy our discussion and this different format. Please provide feedback about this format so we’ll have a sense of whether it works. Sunday’s guest: Mary Corbet.
