I’ll be exhibiting at the Sydney Craft and Quilt Fair in just a few weeks’ time. I’ll have a large range of products with me – everything* you need for whitework embroidery! (*Maybe not quite everything, but pretty close!) I’ll have all 10 of my books available at the show, and I’d love to autograph […] Today I take you through a range of gift ideas for Christmas, birthday or other gifts. There are some that are small, some that are mid price and some that are bigger ticket items. Hopefully there is something for everyone, and for all budgets, to inspire creativity and learn something new. If you are […] In this video, I have no idea what episode of White Threads Floss Tube it is – it’s been THAT long! I introduce my new needle minders and show a few useful ways to use them. I let you know of the postponement of the Sydney Craft and Quilt Fair, show the supplies […] Today on White Threads FlossTube I have a bullion knot tutorial for you. I show you how to make beautiful bullion stitches using a method that many of my students find works for them, particularly when they’ve never successfully made bullions before. I also demonstrate how to resurrect a bullion that went haywire, what […] Some time ago I made a White Threads FlossTube video which was flip- or flick-throughs of all my books so that people could see what was in them, with the commentary pointing out notable features of the books. It’s been a popular video and hopefully people have found it to be helpful in assessing whether […] In today’s video I talk about and show you the Portuguese whitework runner from my book, “Portuguese Whitework: Bullion Embroidery from Guimarães”. I also discuss my dilemma for my next book – I can’t travel to do any research! If you are reading this in an email, you can find the video at https://youtu.be/juixF83y5QA […] I realise that many of you buy my books online or order them from your favourite needlework store, having never really seen what’s inside them, unless you’ve seen a friend’s copy. That’s quite a leap of faith! Today I’m going to give you a flick-through preview of all my books, so that you can see […] In this tutorial, Yvette demonstrates the method she uses for the eyelets in Portuguese whitework. These are non-counted eyelets. (She has already done a great tutorial for counted eyelets.) These eyelets also include Yvette’s revolutionary method for starting and finishing which mean you can have an eyelet in the middle of an expanse of fabric, […] In this episode of White Threads FlossTube, Yvette demonstrates how to work an eyelet with a large hole, and the BEST way to finish an eyelet. She shows you the embroidered item she’s wearing for the day. For further reference, there are written step-by-step instructions for counted thread eyelets in Yvette’s book “Early-Style Hardanger” and […] Yvette Stanton explains the basics of Guimarães embroidery, which comes from Guimarães in Portugal. She shows the sampler from “Portuguese Whitework: Bullion Embroidery from Guimarães”. (Sob story alert!) No embroidery being worn today because our iron broke yesterday and we need a new one. I was planning to wear an embroidered shirt, but not without […] |
