First Newsflash<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

A few weeks ago, I listened to the FiberTalk podcast episode with Tanya Bentham, and left a comment to say how much I’d enjoyed it. I had a reply quite quickly from Gary Parr saying “Thank you for your comment. I’ve just been looking at your blog, would you like to be on the podcast yourself?”. It seemed like it would be fun, so I said Yes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was fun!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gary had clearly been rummaging on my blog to find things to talk about, and I think he found some interesting questions to ask. Certainly he gave me a great deal to think about!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can find the podcast episode here on the FiberTalk website: https:\/\/wetalkfiber.com\/2025\/11\/16\/stitches-and-stories-with-rachel-wright<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or you can watch it here on YouTube: https:\/\/youtu.be\/TGEJw_q8tOA<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I will be joining the Embroiderers Guild UK<\/a> on their stand at Knit And Stitch, Harrogate<\/a>, on Friday morning. I’ll be happy to talk about embroidery in general and Dreams of Amarna in particular, and I will have my pens all ready to sign copies of “Dreams of Amarna – Stitching An Egyptological Adventure”!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
