Vetty Creations now stocks Sotema’s scrumptious 160 Bisso linen fabric. This lightweight, gauzy, see-through fabric is perfect for pulled thread work and shadow embroidery. It’s 53 count (53 threads per inch/21 threads per cm), and simply gorgeous! I used this fabric for my Dresden-style pulled thread work masquerade mask, some years […] One of my most favourite products that I sell (apart from my books!) are the Klass and Gessmann embroidery hoops with stands. They’re among my most favourite products because they’re some of the most useful. Occasionally someone will ask me if I have replacement screws for the hinge part of the interchangeable hoops, […] Last year I booked to exhibit at Tamworth Craft Alive this coming March (15th-17th March 2024, at TRECC). This is my local craft show, and I wanted to be at it. There are lots of Embroiderers’ Guild NSW groups in the wider region including Tamworth, Armidale, Gunnedah, Narrabri and Singleton. And I wanted to […] There is one project in “Hardanger Filling Stitches”: a sampler which uses many of the stitches in the book. It is worked on 28 count linen banding, with linen threads, and a few small beads. The finished sampler measures approximately 28 x 59cm/11 x 23in for the stitching area. I have put together supplies […] In the days before Christmas, the bulk shipment of Hardanger Filling Stitches books arrived from the printers! With the help of a wonderful band of fabulous friends and generous relatives, they were sorted and moved into my storage space. As well as “Hardanger Filling Stitches”, I received new print runs of “Early-Style Hardanger” and […] I’ve just learned that the cargo has been delayed. The ship was supposed to dock in Sydney (Port Botany) on the 10th, but is only arriving today. Delivery to me will now be after Christmas. And THEN I’ll do the massive mail out of Hardanger Filling Stitches. Ah well, it gives me more time […] The bulk shipment of Hardanger Filling Stitches books is likely to arrive at my storage facility in Sydney just a few days before Christmas. The delayed arrival is due to congestion at ports. While there is often congestion at ports at Christmas time, this has been compounded in Sydney because of a recent cyber […] I’m heading to Sydney today for the QuiltNSW Exhibition marketplace. Setup is on tomorrow (Thursday) and then exhibition runs from Friday to Sunday. I didn’t know whether I would have these ready in time, but I can now say that I will have new pendant kits available at the show! The kit is called […] To help you understand all the value you’ll be getting from “Hardanger Filling Stitches”, here we show you all the important features on a spread from the book. Left-handed stitch instruction pages are red, right-handed pages are blue. Purple are for both. Step-by-step instructions with a diagram for each step. Colour-codedpage tabsindicating “L” or […] Because my forthcoming book, Hardanger Filling Stitches, is basically an exhaustive stitch dictionary, there is only one project in it. However, as there’s only one, I had to make it a good one! The Hardanger Filling Stitches sampler is a band sampler featuring as many Hardanger filling stitches as I could fit onto it! […] |
