Fiber Talk Midweek Chat, 8-14-19

The Twisted Stitcher finished these.

We have reached the middle of the week once again. Vonna and Gary are the chatters and Sassy Jacks Stitchery is the sponsor. As for topics, Vonna bought a couple of samplers because she didn’t have enough and Gary bought another set of noise-canceling headphones and they’re the best ever! After we talked about those two topics, we discussed stitching in hand, which led to talking about Nicole Neville, the queen of stitching in hand. Then we talked about needlework, moved on to stitching, mentioned some music, and then discussed needle-and-thread activities. We could have gone on for another 30 min., but Gary cut it off and we said good bye. Hope you enjoy the show.–Vonna and Gary
