Recently I’ve had a few days of finishing projects off for “Early-Style Hardanger”. Last week I finished the blouse – although I still have to sew on the buttons. Today I constructed the biscornu. I discovered that while silk satin fabric is gorgeous, when it is flimsy, it’s very hard to work with to […] 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. […] For quite some time at the guild I belong to, people have been asking me to teach a class on how to take better photos of your needlework.

Take better photos of your needleworkWorkshop with Yvette Stanton […] This is just a quick post to let you know that the embroidered pendant kits are now available on the Vetty Creations website.

It’s a 15 day cruise, and I’ll be teaching on 6 of the at sea days. The […] I now have the details of my next Hardanger class, newly rescheduled due to revived interest from Inspirations Magazine’s Facebook and Pinterest posts! Morning Meadow – Beginners Hardanger class, with Yvette Stanton The Crewel Gobelin, Killara NSW Saturday 2 and Saturday 16 May 2015 12.30 – 4.00pm each day (7 hours tuition time) Learn […] Last Thursday the lovely people at Inspirations magazine posted a picture on Facebook and Pinterest of Hardanger that I taught in a class back in 2010. The picture linked to the blog post about the class that I was going to be teaching at The Crewel Gobelin (way back in June 2010 when the […] Did you think I’d fallen off the face of the earth? No, I’ve just been busy working on the book! This week I’ve been working on stitch instructions, photography and the cover of the book. I think the cover is nearly there, which is quite a relief! Last week I went to a training day […] 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 […] |
