Studying smøyg in a museum in Norway In response to my recent post about learning wherever knowledge is to be found, Robyn replied on Facebook: So many are focused on credentials.

No-one will pay my way to teach a class that doesn’t have enough enrolments […] I’m pleased to be able to reveal that I will be teaching two classes at the National Embroidery School as part of the 2024 ANZEG Conference in gorgeous Dunedin, NZ. The classes that were selected by the committee were my Frisian Whitework Silk Sampler, and Mountmellick Pomegranate Biscornu. The National Embroidery School will […] I’ll be in New Zealand next month on a teaching tour. Despite the fact that it has been organised extremely quickly, to cleverly capitalise on a cancellation of other classes elsewhere, most of the classes have already filled.
