I love Indian embroidery and have been studying it and practicing a little, too, though not nearly with your depth of knowledge. Could you post or send me a copy of your report, I would love to read it. I, too, am a Scholar Embroiderer, used to drive my EGA small group batty with my “background info” on every project we did, ha!

Right now I am in the editing phase, the cleaning up the stitch diagrams and the combination sketches. Covering up the naughty bits of historical statuary and murals from Ajanta caves to keep anyone who sees them from being offended by any sort of nudity cuz got to keep it clean and safe for work. Once that is finished I will hopefully remember to…[Read more]

That’s good news, looking forward to it!

Excellent! When it’s finished, I’d love to see a copy, too!

Thanks, Tina! We’ll look into revising it.

Hay not much time before the holiday week starts – just want to say happy holidays to you. I’m thankful for all your help this year and look forward to the new year..

What videos are are talking about for our Kimono class. I didn’t know there were any available to us.

I also want to thank you for all your help during the Kimono class.

That Video that I am referencing comes from reading The EGA Glossary of Terms and finding something that needed updating and correcting. The Video Link leads to a tutorial on doing Phanda Stitch. I don’t recall taking the Kimono class, nor being helpful. Maybe that was a different Tina?

Hi @Amy-kurtzman, yes you will be able to access the class content from a Mac and using any printer. The class documents will be available as PDFs and the videos will be accessible online from anywhere. Let me know if you have any other questions!

Thank you for the reply. I know I’m good using a Mac for the class content, PDFs, and discussion list.

On the supplies list it says: “Technology: have computer access, printer to print image onto iron-on-transfer paper, and iron with ironing board to affix image onto fabric.”

I have a laser printer that only prints in black. Will that work…[Read more]

I would love to make a skirt using your men’s ties. If that is a good enough reason to give them to me for that purpose, I would cover the postage. Thank you.

Tina, that’s so cool! I loved that you used the judge’s words and improved your already stunning piece. I like the pop of green with the new addition and reading about balance and your process on your blog was great!

That was fast, Tim! Looks great.

Louise, I cannot see your photo. 😔 I hope you try again!

Hello Louise,
I read your post–Sashiko, silk and negative spaces caught my attention. I took the Sashiko class but the first lesson, the designs, I realized that it was not what I wanted to stitch. My aim was to learn a bit about this type of embroidery to be able to use it for geometrical designs that have –medieval Spain–in a form of…[Read more]

I loved seeing your piece on display in Chicago! We will be posting photos of it along with other pieces from the Golden Needle Awards and the Education Exhibit soon. Stay tuned!

Wow! Stunning and inspirational!
