In April/May next year I’ll be tutoring on the Craft Creations Cruise, from Sydney via the South Pacific and Hawaii, to Seattle. I’ve done a couple of cruises with Needlework Tours and Cruises before, as a tutor, and they are always most enjoyable. I’ll be teaching three projects: Early Style Hardanger Biscornu, […] You may remember that in January this year I spent two and a bit weeks in New Zealand, teaching punt’e nù, or Sardinian Knotted Embroidery. Each of the six classes did the Petite Doily from my book Sardinian Knotted Embroidery. The students made great progress, but I always tell my students that I love seeing […] I’m back from a great trip around New Zealand. I’m also exhausted! I littered a trail of exhausted embroiderers across the country, I think! Off to New Zealand! On 3rd January I left Australia, having had hot weather of mid 30s (Celcius), arriving into Dunedin with temps of less than 10 degrees, with […] Having done a bit of stitching in small spaces lately, I thought it might be useful to make this little instructional video about stitching in small spaces.

Lilian will be sharing with us about her embroidery group’s trip to Vaupel and Heilenbeck. Vetty Creations stock linen banding from Vaupel and Heilenbeck, and I have recently ordered more, including some that I haven’t […] As of Friday this week, the Vetty Creations office will be temporarily closed while I am off on another research trip. It will be closed from 21st October until 7th November. I apologise for any inconvenience this may cause. I will attend to all enquiries and orders on my return. If you’re wanting to […] I’m home from Beating Around the Bush. I had a fantastic time at Market Day, and also catching up with people at the meal times etc. I arrived on Friday morning. Lunch was in the dining room at the school where the conference was being held. I was able to meet some people I’d never […] Today we have a guest post from Regina Yatiyo Otake Mattosinho who lives in Brazil. She’s going to tell us a little about the lacemaking that was featured in yesterday’s Rio Olympics closing ceremony. If you’re like me, you were more than a little surprised that lacemaking was featured in the ceremony, but I was […] I went to Singleton in the Hunter Valley on the weekend for a workshop of Mountmellick lilies. Two projects were on offer, both featuring lilies: a cushion and a runner. Some of the participants of the class, hard at work. We had a lovely time, playing with stitches. We solved the problems of […] |
