Fiber Talk Midweek Chat, 2-15-23

Avlea Folk Embroidery stitching by Beth.

We’re, once again, two days from the weekend and it’s time to talk needlework. Topics for this Wednesday include a question from listener Sharon Saunders about buying linen when you don’t have a store, whether a stitch path is useful, sampler borders, challenging reproduction samplers from The Essamplaire, Lucky Jonquil thread drops, and a number of other topics. Mark your calendar for March 15, when Margaret Hagen will be our Stitch Hour guest so we can see more of her sampler collection. Sunday we have a great conversation about needlework techniques with Robin-Ann Rossignol.–Beth and Gary

Fiber Talk Midweek Chat, 11-17-21

One of Beth’s WIPs.

The calendar says it’s Wednesday, so we chatted. We talked a lot about WIPs, cooked up an old-school sampler project (feel free to join us), discussed the benefits of Gary volunteering at a needlepoint shop, and considered the benefits of practicing needlepainting and other techniques to develop skills without the commitment of a project. Join us tonight for Stitch Hour. Cathe Ray of Needle in a Haystack will join us for another episode of Thread Talk. Tonight’s subject will be selecting the right silk threads for your linen thread count. We start at 8:00 p.m. Eastern on the Fiber Talk YouTube channel. Sunday’s guest: Kathy Andrews.–Beth and Gary
