I received a lovely email from a customer, Jane, the other day. “A few months ago I re-ordered 3 of your books that I lost when a flood hit Dungog. Well, I lost a lot of things but one of the things that I gave to a friend before we went under, was the 38 […] A little while back one of my students from the cruise in April sent me a photo of her finished Elizabethan Strawberries project. She’s done a marvellous job and gave me permission to share the photo with you. Congratulations Judy P! This was a small class, aimed at experienced embroiderers, with very dedicated students. […] Every time I run a class I always tell the students that I LOVE to see photos of their finished works. You can imagine my delight when someone actually takes me at my word and sends me one! This morning was just one such occasion, when Michele sent me a photo of her beautiful, completed […] In November last year, I shared with you Crystal’s beautiful version of my design “Claire Doily” from Elegant Hardanger Embroidery.

In that group a member, Arlene, had posted a photo of the Portuguese Whitework sampler from my book Portuguese Whitework: Bullion Embroidery from Guimarães. Arlene has done a magnificent job, and I was pleased to congratulate her on her […] Yesterday I received a photo from Ruth, who was one of the students in my classes on the needlework cruise that I taught on in February this year. Ruth took my Mountmellick class and my Portuguese Whitework Panel class. From the photo (which Ruth has given permission for me to share), you can see […] On Tuesday and Wednesday Singleton Embroiderers Guild group welcomed me back to teach Portuguese Whitework. A couple of years ago I did a Mountmellick workshop with them, which they greatly enjoyed. It was lovely to see several of the completed projects which they proudly brought along to show me! Our Portuguese Whitework class got off […] A long, long time ago, way back in 2000, I entered a hardanger I had designed and stitched in the Nordic Needle Hardanger Design Contest.
