Now that I am back from Beating Around the Bush, the HUGE mailout begins! Today I will start sending out pre-publication orders of Portuguese Whitework. There is a huge pile of orders to go out – thank you to everyone who pre-ordered! – so it will probably take some days to get through them all. […] I had a WONDERFUL time in Adelaide at Beating Around the Bush. Enjoyed the class, and market day, and loved hearing Jenny Adin-Christie last night at the gala dinner. I really enjoyed spending time with the other tutors, socialising and talking shop. I was just a little overawed to meet some of the international […] This is my favourite project (and favourite image!) from Portuguese Whitework: Bullion Embroidery from Guimarães. I wanted one really big, really impressive project for the book, and this is it! I started this cloth when I was in Ethiopia back in 2010, so it has special memories attached to it, of our time in […] The advance copies of Portuguese Whitework: Bullion Embroidery from Guimarães by Yvette Stanton have arrived! The book really and truly exists now! We just have to be patient for the rest of them to arrive at their destinations so that you can have your very own copy!

I think it is lovely that people are keen to try this project, but the kit is not yet available. I have […] Yesterday’s post about red thread brought an amazingly long and detailed reply from Suzy. If you haven’t read it, go and check it out! Suzy knows a lot about red thread! She talked a lot about Cottage Garden Threads, probably because I mentioned the other day that I think I need to know more about […] Yesterday I finally got my gorgeous new embroidery hoops with stands up on my website. I wanted to really illustrate how versatile and useful they really are, so I took a series of photos ilustrating the different things that make them just a delight to work with. NB: embroidery and hoop binding NOT included with […] Vetty Creations are now stocking Lumidome acrylic ball magnifiers. Just place the Lumidome (inset) on the surface to be magnified (top picture). The surface is automatically magnified to 3 times its original size. The ambient light is focused onto the surface, also making it brighter (bottom picture). Its so simple, yet so effective. There’s nothing […] In preparation for the craft show in June, I’ve been ordering in new stock. I’ve got some left-handed embroidery scissors, lumidome magnifiers, and some embroidery hoops with stands that you sit on. Hopefully I’ll get these added on to my website over the next few days before I go off to Brisbane this weekend, otherwise […] |
