Stitchery Stories Is Having A Summer Holiday Hiatus

Firstly, an apology!

Yes, the podcast episodes just disappeared, didn’t they?

I took the May half-term holiday off, then 2 or 3 scheduled guest interviews got postponed for one reason or another.

I was also VERY busy with paid client work creating an online training course on audio and video editing, as well as a pile of other stuff and I’m sorry to say the podcast just got pushed back in the list of priorities.

So, I was left with no episodes, and no time to organise or record and produce any more at that time.

Fenella Dawnay: Processions 2018 & Banner Making

Fenella Dawnay is our guest today on the Stitchery Stories textile art podcast. Our episode is rather different than usual in that Fenella is NOT a textile artist!

We talk about that and in particular the 100 Years 100 Banners project. These 100 banners are being created for the event with 100 arts organisations and women’s groups. Textile artists have been involved with the banner making groups.
