Fiber Talk Midweek Chat, 3-23-22

Fiber Talk listener contributions are helping the Stitch Sainte Luce Women’s Cooperative.

The W day has arrived and we talk about Clare Hunter’s book “Embroidering Her Truth,” available for $22 with free shipping at bookdepository.com; the terrific response we’ve received to help provide threads and needles to the Stitch St. Luce Women’s Cooperative; Heather Haley’s question about the optimum number of embroidery projects; and Angela Nowicki’s thoughts about downloading pdfs vs. printed charts. That led to a discussion about the transition period we’re in with the retail aspect of needlework. We also talk about our favorite designers. Join us tonight for the Fiber Talk Stitch Hour. It’ll be a Stitch and Chat show. We start at 8:00 p.m. Eastern on the Fiber Talk YouTube channel. No Stitch Hour on March 30. Sunday’s guest: Ilke Cochran of Mabel Figworthy’s Fancies. –Beth and Gary

Gary makes significant progress with his new stitching room/studio.

Illness shut us down for a week but Gary is on the mend and the midweek chatting resumes. This week’s conversation focuses on Beth’s burning desire to start a painted-canvas project and how to approach it, progress on Gary’s new studio and how it will be set up, and making a trip to the Needlepoint Club House to help Beth spend money. Join us tonight when the Fiber Talk Stitch Hour returns with returning guest Dima Santina. We gather at 8:00 p.m. Eastern on the Fiber Talk YouTube channel. Sunday’s guest: Michelle May, The Raspberry Rabbits–Beth and Gary
