Hello Lorelei and thanks for accepting my friend request. I was on the EGA Special Interest Group on Surface Stitching Zoom meeting last night. How to make friends on the EGA site was mentioned and Ursula Maldonado is a member there and my friend so I took the opportunity to refresh my memory on how to ‘make friends’ and thought you too, probably have an interest in surface stitching.

I have 31 projects that involve surface stitching, although I am not sure if Blackwork falls into this category. I keep meaning to ask and then get involved in the online conversations and forget.

What is your favourite style of stitching? I see you changed your profile photo a while back and it looks like Needlepoint. Is it one of your projects? If so, I’d love to know more about it.

Enjoy your weekend and I hope you find time to stitch. I am hoping to decide on a centre piece for the Blackwork 2025 SAL by Clare Bradshaw when I finish the final two flowers on the project.
