In this episode of FlossTube I take you on a small tour of the Vetty Creations stand at the Australasian Embroidery Convention show which ran in Brisbane a bit over a week ago. Unfortunately it was held during the time of flooding in Brisbane! If you are reading this in an email, the video […] In this video I show you some completed embroideries by some of my students. I also continue with the theme of tips for using embroidery hoops. This time I cover what to do if your fabric is too small for your embroidery hoop, whether the embroidery being squashed by a hoop is a problem, and […] 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 let you know of a vacancy that has opened up in my in-person Frisian Whitework workshop here in Walcha in late November. Following on from the last video, I show some photos that readers and viewers have sent to me of their adapted versions of my designs. I also take you […] In this video I celebrate the embroideries that PVK sent me photos of: her differently coloured versions of the needlecase and scissor fob from my book “Smøyg: Pattern Darning from Norway”. I invite you to share with me any of my projects that you have made in your own colour scheme. If you are […] Today on White Threads FlossTube I have a number of updates for you. I ran a class in Smøyg here in town on the weekend, and I show you the fabulous results of my students. I provide an update on my now-no-longer upcoming Frisian Whitework Silk Sampler class in August and how it means I […] Today on White Threads Floss Tube the big topic is online classes, and what’s been stopping me from running them. I’ve been pondering a particular problem for years, and while I really do want to run online classes, I have not yet overcome this problem. I’d love your input if you have a possible solution! […] I have now organised three embroidery workshops in the NSW town of Walcha (where I live!). Each class is a two day class, from 9am – 4pm daily, with a 1 hour break for lunch. Our venue, Walcha Handmade, is a small creative co-operative, with quality gifts and souvenirs available. We will be holding […] Today on White Threads Floss Tube I give a tutorial on using a laying tool, and also a demonstration of railroading. These are two techniques used to help create beautiful stitches when more than one strand of thread is in the needle. I used a laying tool for projects with multiple strands in my book […] Today I show you one of the smallest projects from my book “Smøyg: Pattern Darning from Norway” – the scissor keep. This is a great first project, to learn the basic techniques and try out something new. You also end up with a really pretty but practical scissor keep in which you can store needles […] |
