Lorna Bateman commented on sharonb's group Silk Ribbon Embroidery"Thanks Grace - I think that is one of the shops I got some from years ago - the other was a shop in Southampton - they both discontinued the ribbons. Will get hold of them and see what trnaspires!"

Lorna Bateman replied to Patty Lutton's discussion stitching with ribbon in the group Crazy Quilting"Yup a mixed packet of chenille needles is the answer. Then you can find the right size to pull the ribbon through.
You will see that a chenille is very different to an ordinary embroidery needle. They are the same as tapestry needles in…"
Lorna Bateman replied to Patty Lutton's discussion stitching with ribbon in the group Crazy Quilting"Hi Patty. I take it you are just stitching through one layer of fabric or layer plus a backing fabric? Are you using a chenille needle? Maybe the needle you are using is too small.

Lorna, I will be at the Avalon Branch meeting on Saturday although not until late so won't be doing the workshop. However, I do want to work at home that lovely design you have in the latest edition of Classic Inspirations so could you bring along some of the ribbons used in that design please, especially the variegated Autumn Gold 279. Sorry to be a nuisance but it is too good an opportunity to miss to get some of the ribbons. Thank you, Grace

Tina Mackenzie said… Hi Lorna,
Love your work and it's nice to find another Hampshire based teacher on the site.
I visited your site and see you are away in France for another day or so, I do hope it has given you inspiration for more projects.
Best wishes
Tina

Just come off watching handsontv Lorna and your video on drizzle stitch. Had to get the sample fabric out and had a go right away, will be using it on my casalguidi projects and no doubt other embroideries as well.
