The Southpaw Stitcher
Pages
Home
I love it all: embroidery, canvaswork, quilting, crochet. So much to do, so little time.

So Long, Erica
Erica Wilson died today. She was 83 years old.
This is the first embroidery book
that I ever owned.
She was an inspiration to
us Baby Boomers
back in the day.
(She still owned a needlework store
at the time of her death.)
Thank you, Erica.
