EGA Discussion Group 2 weeks, 6 days agoWell – so much for \”doing your own thing\”! First, the silk threads – I used them with a milliners needle and they seated more easily. Second – my design employed many straight lines and negative spaces –
not a good use of Sashiko. However, I like my piece, inappropriate or not — lesson learned – fun anyway – -

EGA Discussion Group 1 month agoThe EGA newsletter was in my inbox this morning–I am always looking forward to it. I noted the info. about the Villanueva ( colcha?) Embroidery housed in Our Lady of Guadalupe Church in Villanueva,NM. I do colcha embroidery , I live in NM and visited the embroidery many times. It is worth a visit. That been said, it is not a colcha…[Read more]

Replying to “follow.” I’m hoping to finally start the Ambrosia Honey project this fall!

EGA Discussion Group 6 months, 1 week agoHas anyone signed up for Shimmering Dreams and not received their materials.? I have called the headquarters twice and emailed Mona, the teacher, and still have not received anything. Checked my spam and trash folders too.
-
I have had a similar experience. I’ve emailed and called headquarters. They have also emailed her. I still haven’t received anything and my order was placed back in January.
-
Patty and JaNaye, I know I have talked with you both, and we are still working on the HQ end to get this problem solved. I also want you to get your LR materials as soon as possible!

EGA Discussion Group 6 months, 3 weeks agoUPDATE: The latest Needle Arts announced Taming the Stash Monster will be a Lightning Round GCC!!!!!
Are there any chapters planning on doing the Stash Monster GCC? I would love to join a group and participate.
-
I think I might be interested also, Trudy.
-
Maybe the RDs need to form a GCC!!!
-
Me, too! In this day of Zoom why not a Zoom GCC? In fact, our chapter’s last GCC did not meet in person after about 5 months, and that was before COVID. It is also true I am the only one to finish and send for evaluation so far….
How could we gauge interest and get more interested people? -
Ladies, I am a member of the Washington DC Chapter and live in Northern Virginia. Where are you all located? The one issue I can picture (from my 1 GCC) is that the systems relies on having a Class Coordinator to receive Course Materials, send in finished projects, and generally organize Stuff.
I can picture this happening in a Virtual Group.…[Read more] -
Hi Kay, I am in CO, Vera is from WV and Wendy is from WI. I’ve done GCC’s with the Rocky Mountain Webstitchers chapter, which has members in different states. For 1 class I mailed my final piece myself rather than sending to the chapter, for the other one there were 4 of us in the metro area, so we sent the pieces together to the chapter to be…[Read more]

Hey. you all might want to suggest that EGA have this course as a Lightning Round–that would help you all out! I have to do Stash Busting, too, but it’s going to take me a LLLLLOOOOONG time–I have 40 years worth of accumulation…sigh.

I agree – I have 20+ years stored all over the house

EGA Discussion Group 7 months, 2 weeks agoI’m finally ready to begin Gay Ann Roger’s “Chloe’s Wedding Dress”. I purchased the design several years ago at an EGA seminar. The instructions begin on page 3, and do not include the fabric used or thread count. I’ve sent sent emails to three different addresses and called her phone with no response. Has anyone used this pattern and…[Read more]

EGA Discussion Group 7 months, 3 weeks agoHow can I get in contact with the teacher for the goldwork bracelet. I need to know where to repurchase items from the kit I purchased as I have lost my kit but I am not getting any response and I have posted a request several times.

Hi Nancy, your teacher only has access to the group discussion in her Goldwork Bracelet class, not this discussion group. I will contact her for you.

EGA Discussion Group 8 months, 1 week agohave any of you ever heard of mardauger embroidery? had a question from a member in RMR – they have a piece done by her great grandmother and would like to find out more about it. Thanks in advance.
-
Thanks Hazel – that was all I found also. I should ask for a picture to see if that would help
-
Could you post a picture of the completed embroidery? Maybe it was called Mardauger in the “old country”, but now has a “new name”. I wonder if it is a variant of Hardangar.
-
Thanks Stephanie – I asked for a picture, but all they had was an old Fair Ribbon with writing on the back, the consensus from the chapter was it was Hardanger.

ahh, spidery handwriting!

Jocelyn, I’m not sure if staff is checking discussion board today, but I’m the region director in the Great Lakes Region. Are you on a computer, laptop or tablet? The login in link appears out the upper right hand corner of my screen on both my smart phone and computer.

And this is all good feedback. I’d also be happy to walk you through the website on zoom if you’d like. My contact info is in my profile.

Wendy, Thanks for your note. Sorry, but I don’t zoom. As you may have guessed, I do not like technology. Right now I use a laptop. Great Lakes region. Hmm. Where are you from? My family is from the Grand Rapids, MI, area, though I live in California and grew up in Ohio.
