  • Hello, I have not been receiving the Needle Arts. Has there been a magazine after the Jan/Feb one? That is the last one I received. Thank You, Helen Voronin

  • Does anyone know what type of frame this is? I have googled brooch embroidery/needlepoint frame and I find people selling a finished product like the picture or plain wooden frames. I’m at a loss on what else this frame could be called or where to buy them.

    The picture was taken from the etsy page themagickcat

    • Hi Jessica – it looks like a brooch blank that has been filled with petit-point. Probably stitched in a small count silk gauze. Mary Corbet has articles on stitching on silk gauze.

    Hello glove-makers! I know many of you might be waiting until the cooler weather is closer before you begin making your gloves. After the vinyl is folder for awhile, use a warm hairdryer to flatten it before making the placement guide. I hope to see some gloves posted at any time during appliqué or construction.

    Needle Artisans of Toledo Guild just hosted 2019 Ohio State Day with designer Diane Herrmann teaching her “Walking the Water’s Edge”. Too bad each State can only host one State Day per year. What a great way to bring excellent teachers to the members at an affordable cost! It was wonderful
    making new connections and learning from a teacher…[Read more]

    • I submitted a nomination for one of our members in the Metropolitan Region. Since there are no winners for that region, I would like to talk to someone to confirm that my submission was received. Can you suggest someone I can contact. Thanks,

    • Dear Rand, my mistake. I see that Ellen Saines got the award for our region. Well deserved. Thanks

    • Hi Suzanne, yes, we had her on the list but misspelled the region’s acronym. We caught it pretty quickly, thanks for the heads up. Have a great day!

The Washington DC chapter here in Alexandria was meeting just 2 miles from home so I went to a meeting and promptly rejoined EGA. And another chapter meets about an…[Read more]
