Debbie Rowley’s latest class design is Angles. Visit her website at debbeesdesigns.com to sign up for the class.It’s the middle of the week in the middle of the month and Beth and Gary have gathered to help you spend your money. Our enabling efforts include the new Tree of Life embroidery kit from Avlea Folk Embroidery, the new Angles class from Debbie Rowley of Debbee’s Designs, and the new book “The Design Collective: Pincushions,” from the people at “Inspirations,” which you can buy from Mary Corbet (It’s sold out now, but we’re sure she’ll be getting more). We also talk about mixing science and needlework and Beth tries to convince Gary to buy a new light/magnifier before his current one breaks. Enjoy the show but keep your credit cards locked away if you don’t want to spend money. Also, join us tonight for Thread Talk with Cathe Ray of Needle in a Haystack on the Fiber Talk Stitch Hour. We start at 8:00 p.m. Eastern on the Fiber Talk YouTube channel.–Beth and Gary
