Recently I received a lovely email from Marjolein in the Netherlands. Marjolein was wanting to share some pictures with me, of a hardanger needlecase that she has made, featuring one of the projects from my book Elegant Hardanger Embroidery. Square sampler from Elegant Hardanger Embroidery, stitched by Marjolein from the Netherlands made up into a [...] I’ve recently finished reading The Lady and The Unicorn by Tracy Chevalier. It was interesting to read her fictional story of how the tapestries came to be, and the family and people around them. I love the Unicorn tapestries. They are just gorgeous, and when we were in New York several years ago, we visited The [...] A new review for “The Left-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion” has appeared on the Country Bumpkin website and in the latest edition of Inspirations magazine. Here is an excerpt: Every time a new embroidery book is published, a huge collective sigh of disappointment emerges from that most neglected group of embroiderers; the left-handers.

The instructions for this stitch have not been included in the most recent issue of Inspirations magazine, in which Snow White has recently been published. When Inspirations publishes a project, they often can only [...] As I promised, here is a link to some images of Snow White, my Mountmellick project in Issue 62 of Inspirations. If you scroll down to the bottom of the page, there’s a better picture than the very difficult-to-see one at the top of the page. You can purchase all the Mountmellick embroidery supplies needed for [...] Today I received my contributors’ copy of “Inspirations” No 62, from Country Bumpkin. It is, as always, full of absolutely gorgeous embroidery. I have a project in the magazine: “Snow White”, a Mountmellick embroidery tablecloth. I actually made this cloth some time ago, and when my friends at Inspirations called, asking if I could do a [...] |
