Where did you learn your textle skills?
USA. I have taken correspondence courses from EGA, attended two EGA workshops. But I've learned a lot from books, many first published in the UK. I've taken two online courses with Sharon Boggon and participated in her TAST challenge. Early in life, I learned sewing and knitting from my mother.

I don't know either. Regardless, thanks for your kind comments. And yes, old stitch instructions can come in very handy!

Hi again JoWynn!

You know I'm still not sure how all this commenting works. I started replying to your comment and now I've been moved to your wall...its all making me dizzy...mmm your pictures are very good. You're gifted with long and short and gold, for sure.

Thank you for shedding light on the foundation chain aspect. Aren't old stitch instructions great? I keep them all too. You always find things in them that aren't even in Mary Thomas.

Your gold bird here is particularly beautiful.

Health is wealth!

Hi JoWynn! as I was saying, in your blog post where you discuss the making of the unicorn stitched in wool. You post the stitch instructions for that piece. On one of the sheets it describes 'foundation chain'. Can I ask which element of the design employed a foundation chain, please?

JoWynn, thanks for showing those beautiful Baltimore Album quilts on your blog; your wrote a very good description and history of the quilts. My reply was awfully long, hope the readers were not bored, but I also hope we will get a quilter interested in the Balt. Album style.
Your stitchery is lovely; I particularly like the tree sparrow-such detail in the way our portrayed the little bird.
