The conversation covers a wide range of topics including Mill Hill bead packaging, books, backs of stitching projects, satin-stitch techniques, transferring designs for embroidery, knitting, yarn from Sarah’s daughter’s sheep Cypress, quilting, needlepoint,
Mary’s shish with beads design.
Mary’s latest projects, and her ebooks. Basically, this week there’s something for everyone. We hope you enjoy listening to the conversation as much as we did recording it.–Christine and Gary
