I don’t think I’ve mentioned here yet that I’ll be teaching at the EGA (Embroiderers Guild of America) 2019 Seminar. This is more than a little bit exciting for me, as it’s the first time I’ll be teaching in the USA! The seminar will be held from October 30 to November 3, 2019 in […]
The ANZEG National Embroidery School is the largest gathering of embroiderers and textile artists at one time in New Zealand. I will be teaching two classes at this year’s ANZEG conference in New Zealand: Early Style Hardanger Panel and Portuguese Whitework Sampler. I believe there is still room in each of these […]
One of the Facebook groups I belong to has asked people to share what they’ve stitched this year. I’ve stitched heaps and most of it will be going into “Smøyg: Pattern Darning from Norway”, so I’m not willing to show it all to you just yet. However, the biggest thing I’ve stitched this year […]

Two weekends ago I began work on one of the larger projects for the book. It’s a sampler and features bands of the embroidery, from different locations and in different styles. It’s great fun to stitch, as the patterns change regularly and if you discover there’s one you don’t particularly like stitching, pretty soon […]
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 […]
I’m back! The trip was fantastic and I learned so very much. I visited museums, met with stitchers and also visited an amazing private collection. The curators and stitchers were so kind with sharing their knowledge and expertise. I’m back in the office today, (as well as being driver for a relative who is […]
