Fiber Talk Midweek Chat, 8-24-22

Winter Hill by Karen Kluba, Rosewood Manor
It’s that day that occurs midway between Sundays and Gary and Beth have gathered for a little needlework conversation. This week’s topics include our progress on the Mystery in St. Tropez project and a new video in which we discuss the threads and ground cloth we have selected, the new Rosewood Manor charts, Beth’s painted-canvas progress, and how we react when a project gets challenging. Join us tonight for the Fiber Talk Stitch Hour. Among other things, we’ll show you how to mount canvas on stretcher bars. We start at 8:00 p.m. Eastern on the Fiber Talk YouTube channel. See below for a new video in which we talk about the threads Gary and Beth have selected for Mystery in St. Tropez. Sunday’s guest: Tracy Franklin–Beth and Gary
