Fiber Talk with Yvette Stanton II

Yvette Stanton’s new book, Frisian Whitework.

Yvette Stanton, of Vetty Creations, returns for a fun and informative conversation about whitework (obviously), color work (yes, she uses color threads), and several of her books. This week’s show is sponsored by Sassy Jacks Stitchery (sassyjacksstitchery.com) and the Embroiderers Guild of America (egausa.org). In the show, we talk quite a bit about Yvette’s upcoming book, “Frisian Whitework: Dutch Embroidery from Friesland,” which will be available in Australia soon and in the rest of the world in a couple of months. Watch Yvette’s YouTube videos to see several of the projects that are in the new book. We also learn some history about the roles of various whitework techniques in costumes and other clothing. It’s always a treat to talk with Yvette and we hope you enjoy the conversation.–Beth and Gary

Fiber Talk with Yvette Stanton

Biscornu project from Early Style Hardanger.

This week’s guest is Yvette Stanton of Vetty Creations in Sydney, Australia.Considered by many to be the hobby’s leading whitework expert, she has traveled the world to research various whitework techniques and share their origins and how the stitching is still done today. Yvette has written eight books about stitching and we talk about all of them in the podcast, in addition to a variety of other topics. Her newest book, Early Style Hardanger, is a beautiful and knowledge-packed publication that resulted from her research trip to the Hardangerfjord region in Norway where she learned about the very origins of the stitching technique and how the Norwegian stitchers, to this day, produce some of the most beautiful needlework in the world. Please join us this week and learn about the world of whitework stitching.
