Neli naist lubavad meid oma emakssaamise kogemusele hästi lähedale. Nad räägivad, milles tunnevad end üksi ja millest päriselt abi oleks.See lugu ei ole ohvritest. Ega kannatajatest. Kui keegi siin elus on võitja, siis nemad. Nad on naised, kellel on suhe, lapsed ja töö. Ja mitte lihtsalt töö, vaid selline, mida nad päriselt tahavad teha. Nad armastavad nii oma mehi, lapsi kui ka tööd ühtemoodi – hästi palju. Aga kuidas selle keskel ise terve mõistus säilitada? Audiolugu loeb: Piret EesmaaSalvestus, helikujundus ja originaalmuusika: Janek MurdLevila 2026Support the show

For this week's show, sponsored by EGA, we had the privilege of spending time with textile artist Judy Coates Perez. Her textile arts career started with an extended family car trip when Judy was in 8th grade. In Guatemala, she learned how to do backstrap (not backstop ;)) weaving. That triggered a lifelong love of multimedia textile art creation. We spent a delightful hour learning about how she creates. Today, in addition to her own art and teaching, Judy has likely the best day job an artist could imagine. We’re confident you’ll enjoy the show and urge you to follow Judy so you can keep up with her work.–Beth and Gary Listen to the podcast: This show is also available on FlossTube.

EGA is sponsoring our conversation with versatile textile artist Laura Wasilowski. After a short stint in theater, Laura built a career dyeing fabrics and threads while raising her children. That led to her captivating art quilts. These days she still creates quilts, but on the much smaller side of the art form and with a good deal more embroidery. She also teaches a large number of classes through C&T publishing. One of those classes involves her newest canvas, felt bowls produced by Fibres of Life. These bowls are a terrific, high-quality, affordable product and Laura’s class shows you how to bring them to life with thread, ribbon, and other embellishments. We explore stitching these bowls at some length and encourage you to give them a try. Also, make your way to Laura’s website to enjoy her outstanding quilts.–Cindy and Gary Listen to the podcast: This show is also available on FlossTube.

Les prix de l'aluminium sont devenus, comme ceux des hydrocarbures, un indicateur de la dégradation de la situation dans le golfe Persique. Ils sont repartis à la hausse après les attaques du week-end du 28 mars qui font craindre des pénuries d'approvisionnement prolongées.  Les pays du Golfe produisent plus de 6,5 millions de tonnes d'aluminium chaque année. L'essentiel est exporté, ce qui finalement représente entre 10 et 15% du commerce mondial. La région est aussi leader en matière d'alliage d'aluminium, avec une production de métal de qualité militaire très prisée par l'industrie américaine de la défense. Mais depuis le 28 février, les cartes ont été rebattues et les attaques iraniennes sur deux fonderies majeures, le week-end dernier, sont venues alimenter les inquiétudes. Aluminium Bahrain n'a pas encore communiqué sur l'étendue des dégâts subis, mais avant même les dernières attaques, l'entreprise avait déjà annoncé l'arrêt de 20% de sa capacité de production. Les Émiriens d'EGA (Emirates Global Aluminium) ont confirmé de leur côté que les dommages sur un de leurs sites à Abou Dhabi étaient importants. Les cours ont donc réagi par anticipation, mais aussi sur la base de signaux concrets : les stocks d'aluminium de la bourse aux métaux de Londres ont chuté brutalement, rapporte l'agence Bloomberg, les négociants s'étant précipités pour retirer du métal des entrepôts, afin de pouvoir honorer leur contrat. À lire aussiEN DIRECT - Guerre au Moyen-Orient: Trump exhorte les «autre pays» à prendre le contrôle du détroit d'Ormuz Hausse des prix sur la durée ? Grâce aux stocks offshore importants dont disposerait l'entreprise émirienne EGA, l'impact sur l'approvisionnement en 2026 pourrait être limité, explique Bernard Dahdah, analyste mines et métaux chez Natixis. En revanche, précise l'expert, l'excédent de 200 000 tonnes qui était prévu en 2027 pourrait se transformer en déficit de plus d'un million de tonnes d'aluminium. Ce déséquilibre s'accentuera si l'unité de production d'Alba (Aluminium Bahrain) est durablement endommagée. Le pire des scénarios serait qu'un arrêt complet des opérations soit décidé : il faudrait alors plusieurs mois, jusqu'à un an peut-être, pour redémarrer les installations. Plusieurs secteurs et pays dépendants Les États-Unis mais aussi les pays membres de l'UE qui ont réduit leurs achats d'aluminium russe et augmenté leurs importations du Moyen-Orient sont les premiers concernés par la situation. Pour l'instant, les conséquences sont limitées car certaines cargaisons du Golfe avaient déjà franchi le détroit d'Ormuz quand la guerre a éclaté. Mais à partir du troisième trimestre, le manque pourrait commencer à se faire sentir. L'aluminium est le métal le plus utilisé après l'acier, que ce soit dans le secteur aéronautique, le solaire, ou encore celui du bâtiment.

Em 28 e 29 de março de 2026, o Irã atacou grandes fundições de alumínio nos Emirados Árabes Unidos (EGA) e no Bahrein (Alba) com mísseis e drones. Os ataques, parte da retaliação a EUA e Israel, causaram danos significativos na EGA em Abu Dhabi e feridos, ameaçando a cadeia de suprimentos global.

Amary on naine, kelle teekond on viinud teda läbi sügava sisemise transformatsiooni, et jõuda autentse elu, armastuse ja vabaduseni. Tema nimes peitub viide portugalikeelsele sõnale “amar” – armastus, ning just armastuse ja suhete teema on saanud tema elu ja missiooni keskpunktiks. Ühel hetkel sõitis ta koos oma kassiga autoga läbi Euroopa üle 40 000 kilomeetri, tehes kaks ringi ümber mandri. Amary teekond sai alguse hetkest, mil sisemine tühjus, ärevus ja rahutus muutusid nii tugevaks, et senine elu ei olnud enam võimalik. Täna jagab ta oma kogemusi ja taipamisi, et aidata inimestel murda “murtud tsükleid” – mustreid ja piiravaid uskumusi, mis hoiavad neid kinni suhetes, tervises ja elus üldiselt. Tema töö keskmes on emotsionaalne küpsus, suhete tervendamine ja sisemise väe äratamine. Amary on loonud brändi BonEssensa, mille missiooniks on tuua emotsionaalne küpsus ja vaimne sügavus praktilisse ellu. Ta aitab inimestel tervendada alateadlikke mustreid ning leida tee autentsema ja vabamana elamise poole. BonEssensa kaudu pakub ta nii 1:1 rännakuid, grupiprogramme kui ka inspireerivaid tööriistu, mille eesmärk on aidata inimestel äratada oma sisemine vägi ja murda piiravaid tsükleid. --- Tutvu võimalustega minna Amary juurde teraapiasse vestlema läbi kodulehe. https://www.bonessensa.ee ja kasuta sooduskoodi "bonchris" mis annab -10% üritustelt ja -20% üks-ühele rännakutelt. --- HEAD MÕTTED “Elu on üsna etapiline, see tähendab, et on perioode, kus sa oledki tõsisem ja siis on perioode, kus sa oled elavam ja lõbusam.” “Olin mingiks hetkeks endaga kontakti niimoodi kaotanud, et minu tass oli täiesti tühi, lausa kuivanud.” “Murtud tsüklitega sa natukene nagu tegeled aga ei lähe lõpuni juurtasandile välja.” “Keegi ei taha otseselt minevikus sorkida, aga näha seda läbi, tegeleda sellega, lahendada see ära ja siis lasta sellest lahti, on see meetod, mis toob tulemuse.” “Kui sa ignoreerid, siis muutust ei tule.” “Armastusega algab töö pihta alati iseendast.” “Kõik on alati inside-out, ehk välismaailm on meie sisemaailma peegeldus.” “Ega suhetes ei ole koguaeg trillala-trullala ning liblikad ja vikerkaared, vaid oluline on, et kommunikatsioon keerulistes olukordades oleks toetav ja armastav.” “Kui meestel on käimas printsessi ajastu, siis naistel on raudse leedi ajastu.” “Inimesed arvavad, et neil on õigus kommenteerida sinu pere valikuid ja väärtuseid. Tegelikkuses on igasuguse hinnangu ära andmine, mis näitab, kus sul endal on tegelikult leke.” “Elus tuleb aega võtta, et enda jamadele otsa vaadata ja need päriselt ära tervendada.”

Robert Fico tuší, že smerujeme do pekla – čím odhalil, ako sa on sám cíti, ale potrebuje mať ilúziu, že tam cvála na „Bielom koni," hodnotí premiéra psychiater Jozef Hašto. Prečo premiér vyhľadáva nerovnocenné spory, napríklad so študentami? Čo to hovorí o krehkosti jeho Ega a prečo svet ovládli narcistickí egomianiaci?Slovník plný kazajok pre mentálne postihnutých či bezbrehé a hrubozrnné verbálne výpady voči prakticky bezbranným študentom či novinárom. I toto je aktuálna realita vládnej moci. Akú spoločnosť toto popisuje, čo to hovorí o sile – i slabosti, vládnej moci a čo to vypovedá o nás, ako o spoločenstve?Podľa psychiatra Jozefa Hašta odhaľuje agresívny slovník Roberta Fica jeho hlbokú vnútornú frustráciu a neschopnosť krotiť vlastnú zlosť z prípadného politického neúspechu. Za maskou silného premiéra sa tak skrýva až deštruktívna závisť voči potenciálne úspešnejším oponentom ako i strach z vlastnej budúcnosti. A čom teda boli tie premiérove slová o cvale do pekiel a kde sa v tom celom vzal ten jeho „Biely kôň“?Môže sa stať štvornásobný premiér zajatcom vlastnej velikášskej predstavy o sebe a neutopil sa Robert Fico vo svojom vlastnom sebaobraze? O čom hovoria jeho permanentné útoky na mocensky úplne nerovných oponentov, akými sú študenti či napríklad aj novinári? No a napokon, prečo narcistickí lídri tak veľmi potrebujú ponižovať evidentne mocensky slabších a aké devastačné stopy toto všetko zanecháva na duši národa i sveta?Téma patologického narcizmu opustila kabinety psychiatrov a stáva sa priam politickou témou ako i témou národnej bezpečnosti a duševného zdravia celej spoločnosti. Malígny narcizmus totiž nie je len prehnaná sebaláska, ale ide o deštruktívnu kombináciu narcizmu, asociálneho správania, agresivity i sadizmu, kde druhí ľudia slúžia iba ako nástroje na potvrdenie vlastnej grandiozity.Keď sa takáto patológia spojí s mocou, štát sa môže stať rukojemníkom osobnej pomsty ako i chorobnej potreby obdivu, hovoria odborné poučky. Čo to teda je tento malígny narcizmus, v čom pramení, ako ho spoznať a najmä, ako sa mu brániť? No a ako to, že tento nezdravý typ správania dnes žne také úspechy? Témy pre psychiatra a psychoterapeuta Jozefa Hašta.Sledujete Ráno Nahlas, pekný deň a pokoj v duši praje Braňo Dobšinský.Všetky naše podcasty nájdete na jednej stránke tu.

Isabella Strambio returns this week to talk about her new book, “The Beginner's Guide to Macrame. The show is sponsored by the Embroiderer's Guild of America. This week we feature EGA's Special Interest Groups, which are available to members and nonmembers. When we first talked with Isabella, Dec. 15, 2024, we learned about her macrame art and her new book at the time, “Mindful Macrame.” In the year that has passed, Isabella has been battling breast cancer. We spend the first 15 min. of the show talking about her journey. I'm pleased to report that she had her mastectomy Feb. 16 and, pending test results, they believe they have removed all of the cancer. After that discussion, we talk about her new book, which will be available in the U.S. March 17. In our conversation, we talk how the books helps beginners and how easy and inexpensive it is to try macrame. For needleworkers who are looking for a diversion/new inspiration, it might be a technique that satisfies your maker instincts. Check out Isabella's new book and/or her other four books and visit her website for classes and tutorials.—Gary Listen to the podcast: This show is also available on FlossTube. Click here to view it.

It's Midweek Chat time. This week, Beth and Gary tackle some topics that might be feather-ruffling to stitchers and/or designers, depending on your perspective. The topics are the increasing cost of stitching and whether it really matters, copyright infringement (people do mind-boggling things to save a few bucks), and the back side of stitching (yes, it can matter and it's definitely worth consideration). Let us know what you think about these topics in the comments section. Sunday's guest: Holly Jackson, Flossing in the Moonlight—Beth and Gary Listen to the podcast: Watch the video.

It's Midweek Chat time. This week we started out with the planned topics and were doing well until the subject of “Land of the Free” by Kathy Rees came up. That led to her new Shining Needle Society class, then we remembered Color Waves, and then it was all over. We simply went to needledelights.com and gushed and remembered all of the great designs. The spending of money will happen in the next few days. Our apologies to the folks who listen to the show on podcast apps. We also cooked up a live show to kick off National Embroidery Month. Join us on the FiberTalk YouTube channel at 1:00 p.m. Eastern, Sunday, Feb. 1 for a couple of hours of stitching fun.

Our long Holiday Hiatus is finally over and we're back to our regular schedule. This week we talk about our upcoming needlepoint series (send us questions and things you want us to cover), a cool hand massager Beth got for Christmas (enabling alert), our stitching plans for the coming year, what we're stitching for our needlepoint series, and we gush over Christmas cards Cindy Russell sent us.

We’re joined this week by brilliant counted-canvas artist Wendy Moore. The show is made possible by CyberPointers (cyberpointers.org), the online chapter of ANG. The need to be creative transported Wendy from the science world to stage costume design. She moved to the Midwest and was exploring her love of Shakespeare when she was invited to an EGA meeting. That meeting opened the door to the counted-canvas-design career that we all enjoy today. In our conversation, we learn the details of Wendy’s interesting career path and her process for creating terrific needle art. Wendy’s pieces are available through online, in-person, chapter, and regional and national events. “If you can get six people together, I’ll teach a class.” We hope you enjoy the show and will consider taking a class from Wendy.

For our final Wednesday conversation, we decided to do a recap of 2025 by naming our favorite needlework artist(s) of the year, the top item in the list of things we learned from 141 shows, and the one topic that stuck with us. We all had the same #1 artist, but Cindy and Gary had to go with our 1a selections because Beth was too fast with the keyboard. If you have a favorite needleworker interview from the 42 Sunday shows we did, let us know in the comments. Same goes for something new you learned from a year of Fiber Talk shows and something that stuck with you. Sunday’s guest: Wendy Moore–Beth, Cindy, and Gary Listen to the podcast: Watch the video.

Our guest this week is embroidery artist Nicole Chui. The show is sponsored by the Embroiderer’s Guild of America. Nicole describes her work as “colorful, loud, intense, messy, brash, and disruptive. She started in the fashion industry but her creative urges took her to a studio she shares with artists of other types so she can express her art in the unique way she prefers. That studio has provided opportunities to collaborate, which have proven beneficial to all of the artists. Nicole is also a football (soccer) player and owner of a football club. That sports connection has provided her with inspiration for several of her pieces. She is a fascinating talent who does needle art unlike anyone else. Be sure to visit her social media pages to enjoy more of what she creates.–Gary Listen to the podcast: Watch the video You can listen by using the player above or you can subscribe to Fiber Talk through iTunes, Amazon Music, Spotify, Audible, Google Podcasts, TuneIn, Podbay, and Podbean.

professorjrod@gmail.comA single glowing dot in a glass tube changed how we understand the world. We follow that spark from Carl Ferdinand Braun's cathode-ray breakthrough to radar operators reading life-and-death blips, to living rooms lit by television and desktops shaped by GUI windows. Along the way, we show why screens didn't just display information—they taught humans to think in frames, patterns, and pixels.I walk through the interface pivots that mattered: when computers stopped spitting paper and started talking back visually; when text terminals gave way to Xerox PARC's icons and pointers; when Apple and IBM normalized monitors as the heart of personal computing with standards like CGA, EGA, and VGA. Then we dive into the flat panel turn: the physics of liquid crystals, the jump from passive to active matrix TFT, and the moment LCDs escaped laptops to conquer the desk. We weigh plasma's cinematic highs and practical lows, and how LED backlights, higher refresh rates, and HDR transformed clarity, contrast, and color.From there, we explore OLED's promise—self-emissive pixels with true blacks, flexible forms, and motion precision that redefined smartphones, TVs, and creative workflows. We compare Mini‑LED's local dimming advances and MicroLED's potential for brightness, longevity, and perfect blacks, while noting the manufacturing roadblocks. Finally, we look ahead: curved, foldable, and rollable designs that adapt to you; VR and AR that pull displays onto your eyes; and early steps toward holograms and light field systems that project depth without headsets. The through-line is simple and profound: as control over light improves, the screen fades and the experience takes its place.If this journey reshaped how you see your monitor, share it with a friend, subscribe for more deep dives, and leave a review to help others discover Technology Tap.Support the showArt By Sarah/DesmondMusic by Joakim KarudLittle chacha ProductionsJuan Rodriguez can be reached atTikTok @ProfessorJrodProfessorJRod@gmail.com@Prof_JRodInstagram ProfessorJRod

It’s always fun when Wednesday arrives and we get to talk about stitching. The first item on the list is a drawing for Clara Warschauer’s Goldwork Cross Star kit and the accompanying finishing kit from Ecclesiastical Sewing. These two kits will be taught in a free class Clara is offering Dec. 6. For details, visit Clara’s site at: https://www.clarastitching.com/free-goldwork-star-cross-workshop. Our main topic this week is the question of why we don’t always focus on the project(s) we’re most excited about and/or that challenge us most? Why do we frequently find ourselves working on projects that are easy instead? Is it time? Lack of focus? Trying to achieve a level of stitching quality that matches others? Also, what keeps us from playing with colors, threads, and designs to advance our stitching experiences. Please leave your thoughts about our conversation in the comments section.

This week we're privileged to talk with designer Amie Corbin of Lola Crow Cross Stitch. The show is sponsored by the Embroiderer's Guild of America at egausa.org. Amie has sewn clothes and stitched all of her life. Her first full-time venture was making costumes for a belly-dance troupe. The pandemic changed things and she shifted to cross-stitch design and has rapidly built up a large and fascinating catalog of designs. In the conversation, we learn how that all happened and what's behind her many creative charts. Her latest design, “A Very Bigfoot Christmas” is a set of three ornaments. Through the end of November 2025, stitchers can get the charts by making a minimum $10 contribution to Meals on Wheels. All of the details are at the Lola Crow website.—Cindy and Gary Listen to the podcast: Watch the video You can listen by using the player above or you can subscribe to Fiber Talk through iTunes, Amazon Music, Spotify, Audible, Google Podcasts, TuneIn, Podbay, and Podbean.

The day after Tuesday has arrived and Cindy and Gary volunteered to spend some time talking about stitching. Our conversation focuses on new and upcoming Patreon shows and our Krista West conversation from Nov. 9. We spend most of the time talking about the two projects we plan to stitch from books we own. For Cindy, it's the Celeste Fig by Christine Burton from the Inspirations book “Design Collective, Vol. 1.” For Gary, it's Kevin the pheasant from Hazel Blomkamp's “Crewel Birds” book. We also talk about what we carry in our stitching “go bags.” If you want to support all of the needlework content we produce, please consider becoming a Patreon supporter at patreon.com/FiberTalk.

The list includes Krista West’s Thank you sale (20% off everything at Avlea Folk Embroidery in November), an upcoming show with Krista on blocking out time, sleeping earbuds, Vikki Clayton/Hand-Dyed Fibers leftover/fragment bags, EGA virtual lectures, ANG’s new membership structure, a magnetic frame from PNB Making Memories to hold perf linen sheets, and a terrific visit to Stitchers Garden in Naperville, IL.

It appears that another Wednesday has arrived and our habit is to gather for some needlework chat. This week Cindy and Gary fired up the online recording system to talk about Sunday's upcoming America's Tapestry show, helping beginners without scaring them off (bite your tongue, a lot), the new set of needlepoint cards from Emma Homent of Markers Marks, a question from Debra Yerike about using wheat paste to protect the back of your projects (there will be more about this topic in upcoming shows), and a tangent discussion about the value of reading books.

We return in the middle of the week to converse about needlework. Our topics include new Patreon videos, Beth’s Pour ta Fete finish (work on a project 15 min. a day and you make significant progress), the Phoenix Band Sampler, taking a social-media break, and our sampler short lists. We each chose five-ish and ended up overlapping with two. If you’re looking for interesting samplers, particularly challenging ones, you might find them in our collection. If you listen to the audio podcast, you can find a slide show of our sampler selections below. We also ask the question: Now that we’ve listed our top projects, why aren’t we stitching any of them?

The second Wednesday of the month arrived so we decided to get together and talk about stitching. For topics, we dreamed up Gary’s Needlework Galleria trip, the St. Louis Stitchers Facebook group, Boomerang Stitches, what’s happening with Karen Kluba of Rosewood Manor, Cindy’s version of Kurdy Biggs’ Tequila Sunrise, and buying from European companies. This week it was Cindy’s turn to list her 10 keeper projects. She cheated at a very high level and we only got through half of them. We’ll cover the rest the next time. List the 10 projects in your stash that you would keep no matter what. We want to see what you have in the works. Want to support Fiber Talk? Become a Patreon subscriber at patreon.com/FiberTalk.

We’ve located Wednesday so it’s time to chat. This week Beth asked the question: If you could only keep 10 projects what would they be? That simple question triggered a lot of stash searching and two lists that are really not all of the projects we would keep. Also, Gary cheated on his list. But Beth made a second list, so basically, we ignored the 10-project limitation. We also have a drawing this week for one of two Avlea Folk Fabric bookmark kits.

The “W” day has arrived and Cindy and Gary gathered to talk about Iowa State Fair results (lots of ribbons) and becoming a Fiber Talk Patreon subscriber. We also discuss analyzing a design and determining whether to stitch all of it or to modify it to make it the design you want. Then we move on to the process of selecting threads/colors for a project and learn that, basically, Gary needs to sit down and organize his threads so he can assemble the needed colors without spending hours hunting for what may or may not be in the stash.

Alissa Cook takes embroidery to a new level by combining it with beautiful nature photography to create truly unique needle art. This week’s show is sponsored by the Embroiderers’ Guild of America at egausa.org. Alissa Cook is a talented photographer and embroiderer who decided to combine those two art forms to find a new level of art. It took considerable determination, much trial and error, and honest feedback from artist friends to develop her techniques. In our conversation, we learn how this approach came together and how Alissa gets her photos from camera to linen to stitched pieces that are admired in galleries. Her most-recent exhibition was a combined effort with Elizabeth Sullivan, our May 18 guest. Enjoy the conversation then follow Alissa on her Instagram account to fully appreciate her art.–Cindy and Gary Listen to the podcast: Watch the video You can listen by using the player above or you can subscribe to Fiber Talk through iTunes, Amazon Music, Spotify, Audible, Google Podcasts, TuneIn, Podbay, and Podbean.

PPH is terrible. PPH must be assessed quickly via the “4Ts” and acted upon in a timely manner. And listen to this: new data from the Journal of Maternal-Fetal & Neonatal Medicine (June 24, 2025 ahead of print) finds an association with PPH and adverse outcomes years later: the odds of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and thromboembolism disease are increased in patients with postpartum hemorrhage (PPH), to a magnitude of 1.76 fold. That's why these authors recommended "proactive postpartum care". That's what we're gonna talk about in this episode. Control of PPH includes bladder drainage, uterine massage, medications as appropriate, and mechanical methods of bleeding control. So… Vacuum uterine contraction works, and a balloon works. Even a simply 24 Fr foley has efficacy data in this setting as a uterine tamponade tool. But, in an attempt to have a LOW-COST, HIGHLY EFFECTIVE, and easy to use alternative to the Jada and Bakri- could we just use an intrauterine foley catheter and connect that to vacuum suction? JADA is effective but it limited based on uterine (EGA) size, or in cases of uterine anomaly. But most importantly…JADA and Bakri are expensive! Well, we now have data that this approach, using a low-cost, easy to use alternative, may be a consideration. It is FOCUS. This idea comes from one of our podcast family members, Dr. Frank Jackson- an MFM fellow- who has published his experience with this and already has a new publication on this technique (FOCUS), which was released as we were recording this very episode! Listen in for details.

Hannah Arnold creates new embroidery designs in a beautiful building her husband built entirely of reclaimed materials. In this week’s show, sponsored by the Embroiderers’ Guild of America, we learn about that she shed and the inspirational environment it provides and how Hannah transitioned from a career as a physical therapist to full-time embroidery designer and teacher. Hannah has a unique approach in that she provides her instructions as videos instead of written word. She has a fascinating second aspect of her business. She stitches bespoke replicas of wedding bouquets to provide brides with long-term memories and to challenge her stitching skills. She has a unique style and puts a much-needed focus on young stitchers.

We’re at the point where the weekend is visible, so Beth and Gary fired up the Internet software to talk about things. We spent a lot of time talking about articles in the June 2025 issue of “Needle Arts,” EGA’s official publication. Mainly we gushed about Jessica Grimm and the amazing work she does in the world of medieval embroidery (acupictrix.com). There will be a test so you’ll need to know the differences between Opus anglicanum, Opus cyprense, and Opus romanum. We also talk about the America’s Tapestry project (americastapestry.com), Beth’s Quaker drum, and the “Quaker Samplers” book by Lesley Wilkins (Search Press). Buy it. You’ll be glad you own it. Other topics include our upcoming Tour de France shows (more about Jessica), and all of the things we’re doing on Patreon (subscribe at patreon.com/FiberTalk).

Embroidery artist Jessica Kemper of Field Guide Embroidery is our guest this week. The show is sponsored by the Embroiderers’ Guild of America and the EGA Sampler U. Register in the Events section at egausa.org. Jessica Kemper loves the outdoors and has found a way to marry that love with embroidery. Her animal designs are the perfect size for embellishing hats, jackets, shirts, and other types of clothing. She also teaches classes, offers kits, and has published a book titled “The Field Guide to Embroidery.” The book is filled with animal designs and instructions so you can stitch your own connection with nature. In the process, you’ll also learn the fur stitch, a Jessica Kemper creation. Also note that 10% of Jessica’s sales are donated to the Sageland Collaborative, an organization that uses “science in the service of wildlife and wetlands.” Keep up with Jessica’s designs through her social media accounts and, while you’re online, join the EGA and register for the EGA National Seminar and Sampler U.–Gary Listen to the podcast: This show is also available on FlossTube.
