Alison Larkin Shares Her Life In Fabric & Thread on this episode of the Stitchery Stories embroidery podcast. Alison talks about developing her second career based around her love of traditional embroidery, historical costume, and 18th century waistcoats.

Susan Weeks chats with Alison about:

• Making & wearing historical costume,
• Captain Cook's Waistcoat,
• travelling to Australia & New Zealand for waistcoat research,
• working on a small scale,
• double sided embroidery,
• Alison's favourite techniques
• and using embroidery to keep you from going crazy at work!
• Oh and of course, how sociable it is being a member of a group such as The Embroiderer's Guild. :-)
