Val:   Last Friday we had another busy (and full) day filming with Jennifer Trollope and the wonders of the embellishing machine.   If you thought you could only make felt scraps for brooches - think again!  What a star Jennifer was and not just with her sewing skills - traffic meant she spent more than 6 hours in the car to join us!!

Another star of the day was Kelly Aldridge - a graduate of the Royal School of Needlework showing us how to do stumpwork;  this will be coming to your screens shortly.

PLUS we filmed a wonderful piece of work by Delia Salter called 'The Shipping Forecast' - 31 pieces of work - what an achievement.

and you will be able to see all this on our site in due course - keep uptodate by subscribing to our Newsletter, which is free.
