Magazine articles and projects

Yesterday I mentioned a project of mine that can be found in an old magazine. Over the years I have had many projects and articles featured in various embroidery magazines. Not so much recently, because I’ve been more focused on writing my books and teaching embroidery. However, there’s a lot of content out there that […]

Florence Broadhurst dress

You may have noticed the dress I was wearing in the photograph that I posted yesterday. At least one person did, because I received an email saying, “You should mention the lovely dress you are wearing in photo.” This suited me fine, because I was planning on talking about Florence Broadhurst today!

The dress […]

Mountmellick project in Inspirations magazine

On Friday I received a lovely surprise in my post office box. My copy of Inspirations 80 had arrived! This is the 20th anniversary of Inspirations magazine, and to celebrate they have 15 projects all by Australian designers, one of whom is me!

My project is a little biscornu, featuring Mountmellick embroidery. It was […]

more stitching

I must say I have been particularly indulgent this week. I have stitched for most of the week, and it does mean that I have gotten an awful lot done! I put aside the large project I was working on yesterday to work on a small one for a specific purpose.

The small project is […]

latest Embellish magazine

I got the latest copy of Embellish magazine the other day. Remember that a little while back I told you about a lace exhibition at the Powerhouse Museum? Embellish has a great article in it on the third international Lace Award and Exhibition, Love Lace.

There are two full spreads of photos of entries in […]

Green beading

I received the latest copy of Embellish magazine yesterday. This issue I have a green beaded shrug in it. The beading is a band along the edge of the sleeves. Its quite simple, but really adds that little something special to the garment. You could also bead similarly down the front of a cardigan or […]

Magazine project

As you may know, I have been regularly contributing to Embellish Magazine, which is a young magazine primarily about the embellishment of fabric and clothing. I have been asked to provide an embroidery project for each issue. Sometimes they send me the clothes to work on, and sometimes I provide something.

The issue I am […]

Published designs

I got an email yesterday from Julie, who told me that because she was on holidays she’d had the chance to browse in a newsagents and found some designs of mine in a “new” magazine called “Hardanger & Drawn Thread Embroidery” published by Express Publications. She wondered if it would be possible for me to […]

Latest issue of Embellish

The other day I received my copy of the latest issue of Embellish magazine. Each quarter, Michelle who is one of the editors, sends me another garment for me to embroider. So in this issue I have another garment – a chocolate sleeveless blouse with ruffles on the yoke that were begging to be embroidered […]
