Embroidery

Do you enjoy hand embroidery?
I haven't embroidered in years, but I appreciate the time that goes into it and adore looking at hand work of any kind.

I'm drawn to vintage redwork patterns and modern, colorful patterns, too!
A reader recently sent an email question about needlework, and while not my specialty {ok, major understatement, I know lol}...I have been curious about finding a refresher course, so I did a little digging.

I found a great site here for every stitch I've ever done and then some: at Needle 'n Thread so I thought I'd share. This was fun!

If you have a question or topic you'd like some help with, please feel free to drop me an email so we can all benefit.

Happy Stitching!

A New Look for the Blog

It's hard to believe that the header has topped this page for just over a year. What a year it's been! A new look will be greeting you on the RETRO-Fabulous blog with a few other changes to come {and hopefully a finish or two, too}. I always appreciate your comments and am looking forward to your thoughts on the new design.
Best Wishes & Happy Stitching,
Heather
