Fiber Talk Midweek Chat, 10-2-19

Gary and Ellie Pfeiffer will be starting a new podcast called The Artist Nook.

Another week has flown by and we’re back to chat again. This show is sponsored by Sassy Jacks Stitchery, which is our weekend destination. We’ll be attending the Claudia Dutcher Bristol Orphanage Samplers lecture series and workshops and doing some broadcasting along the way. This week we talk about our plans, along with more on the Queen’s sampler, a new podcast Gary is doing with Ellie Pfeiffer, and Vonna’s frustrations with silk threads. We also get to hear from Vonna’s therapist.–Vonna and Gary

Fiber Talk Midweek Chat, 9-18-19

A Twisted Stitcher finish.

It’s Wednesday and it’s a long chat, so get some extra beer/wine or do another lap of your walking route. As always, we’re sponsored by Sassy Jacks Stitchery. Please support them because they help make these podcasts possible. Our topics include our plans to participate in the Bristol Orphanage Sampler event at Sassy Jacks in October, live shows, our Queen’s Sampler experiences, storing threads and charts, and our upcoming Fiber Talk Starters series. Then the show got long and it’s all Joanie Raimindo’s fault. She asked a question about away and waste knots and that launched a serious needlework discussion. There’s learning to be done in that last 30 min. We hope you enjoy the show.–Vonna and Gary

Arlene Cohen’s Inspiration from the 16th Century design

Arlene and Gary have gathered once again for some needlework conversation. This time we discuss the Montenegrin stitch, Arlene’s whitework efforts, holding needlework, floor and lap stands, and whether we can live without DMC. We hope you enjoy the conversation as much as we enjoyed recording it. Sunday’s guest: Gay Ann Rogers–Arlene and Gary

The Queen’s Sampler Project, Sponsored by Sassy Jacks Stitchery, Update 3

We’re making progress. Three bands are finished and we’re working on the Montenegrin band. It’s been a great challenge so far, we’ve learned much, and there is much more stitching fun in the future. We hope you enjoy this update. Join us in stitching the sampler.–Gary and Vonna

Vonna finished this. Someone else stitched it.

The midweek conversation is between Vonna and Gary, with Sassy Jacks Stitchery sponsoring the show. This week we talk a bit about the Queen’s Sampler Project, sponsored by Sassy Jacks, in preparation for our video update later in the week. We also talk about whitework and determining ground-cloth size. There is no memory of what we talked about for the remaining 45 min. But it was fun. We hope you enjoy the show as much as we did recording it.–Vonna and Gary
