Portuguese Whitework is now available in Europe! 😀 Its early days yet, so while the big online book retailers (I think you’ll know the ones! Amazon, Book Depository etc.) have it already, it might take a little longer to make it to your favourite needlework store or bookstore. If you want your favourite store to […] Now that I am back from Beating Around the Bush, the HUGE mailout begins! Today I will start sending out pre-publication orders of Portuguese Whitework.

Don’t forget that you can pre-order your […] Do you have any questions about Portuguese Whitework in general or about my upcoming book, Portuguese Whitework: Bullion Embroidery from Guimarães? Well, this is your chance to ask those questions, and if I know the answer, then I’ll definitely answer it for you. Ask away! […] A few weeks ago I tantalisingly dropped it into one of my posts that I had been invited to teach on a needlework cruise early next year. I am now allowed to spill the beans on that one! From February 10th next year, I will be teaching Portuguese Whitework and Mountmellick Embroidery on a cruise […] Because of all the effort that I put into creating my video preview of “Portuguese Whitework”, I’m going to wave it under your noses yet again and embed it here today. I hope you’ll indulge me! Please share the video with your friends – its a great way to introduce the delights of Portuguese […] |
