Now I have to back and thank Katie Strachan for recommending you! Wonderful, wonderful video - beautiful exhibition and so well described. I look forward to more travels!

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

Thank you for the comment and Katie is fantastic - isn't she!!

[@barbarabraun6412]

Very, very interesting! Thank you for the presentation and I look forward to your future videos.

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

I am currently on a huge German sampler detective hunt - will be talking about it in future videos

[@lindahartell8610]

Oh my gosh! I have my first piece from over 50 years ago! My husband has asked me why I haven't framed it and I tell him I like to see just how awful the back looks. I've come a long way since that first piece. Thank you for showing yours.

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

I was laughing to my husband that it was amazing that I have my first piece and why the heck was it not an ornament yet? I might have to keep it as is as a 'historical object'.

[@katherinemarion631]

Oh my! I stumbled across your channel while watching a video from Nicola Parkman of Hands Across the Seas. I am thrilled to see you here! What a wonderful exhibit. Looking forward to your travels.

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

Thank you for coming to view! Hope you stay and enjoy more of the videos

[@korhay21]

Amazing just stunning and amazing. Thank you for bringing this to us. I am looking forward to see more of your work.

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

Thank you - I might do a tour of my casket in the near future so people can see it - I wonder if people like seeing finished or in progress pieces?

[@elizabethcoleman5437]

So interesting to learn the history of this embroidery. Looking forward to more travels with you!

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

Thank you Elizabeth - I am currently traveling around and getting more footage of embroidery in Germany!

[@paulahiggins4725]

Breathtaking. Love your work.

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

Thank you so much!

[@carlabowlin8313]

Welcome to Flosstube. So happy to see you here! I loved the video. The exhibition was fabulous! Thank you for sharing your visit. I look forward to more videos.

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

Thanks Carla - I have been planning this for awhile, but the kids and robot team took up so much of my time I didn't have the bandwidth for it.

[@SusanMorehouse-r7c]

Spectacular , can't wait for more

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

Thank you, I am currently on travel right now and filming even more. Hope people like beautiful lace, costumes, samplers and more

[@minaborromeo4314]

Lovely to see Tricia. Thanks for sharing

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

Well there is more of me now than there used to be. ha ha. Gotta get on the treadmill a little after watching myself. ha ha

[@kade1699]

So pleased that Katie Strachan recommended your channel yesterday on her flosstube! Sounds like you were rather a prodigy child with regard to embroidery! Truly enviable to have been able to visit that extraordinary exhibit! Really excited for your future videos and learning more from your incredible expertise in surface embroidery!

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

I didn't do sports and so had to do something with my time at a small school without a lot of activities!

[@jomariehogle1980]

What a beautiful expedition you have shared. Wow what a trip. Sure enjoyed your video and learned so much. Yes, Shay I have been to her shop as I’m originally from MI. And watched her show also. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and trip. Can’t wait for the next one.

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

Shay is a force of nature!

[@kathymathews2804]

Fantastic first video!!!!! Happy I found you!

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

Thank you Kathy!

[@1gcrowley]

Hi Tricia, Excited to see your new FLOSSTUBE #1 TRAVELS. Love your story about how you got started. Gonna be fun to follow your travels. Gayle Crowley

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

Hi Gayle! Good to hear from you again! I thought people would like to see that all my embroidery wasn't wonderful! ha ha

[@beckydevries-wong4885]

Thank you for this! I loved watching this video. So many Flosstubes are just what someone has bought and such and I so loved having the history and examples. This is wonderful!!!! Thank you, Thank you

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

Hey Becky - Nice to hear from you! I will be doing Flosstubes with different types of content but mainly about some technique or history

[@Stitchittome5025]

Fabulous flosstube 🎉🤩🧵🧵🧵🪡

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

Thank you - I am going to have to find some of those emoji!

[@jackiewyatt1319]

Thank you so much for sharing this! Sometimes I really with i lived in England so I could see these exhibits in person! I look forward to more videos.

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

Hi Jackie - I know, it is hard to love embroidery and not be near the center of the universe!

[@monicaaber5095]

Enjoyed your floss tube !. Look forward to more. Remember Shay Pendray, her TV shows and Japanese embroideries too. I think I have a book by Shay on Goldwork. I remember her colorful embroidery of the Japanese ribbon/bow and always wondered how that was accomplished. Enjoyed going through the exhibit and I am amazed there is so much talent in this form of gold/work embroidery. I look forward to more from your floss tube and want to keep on learning (even though I have been stitching for over 50 years already!). Thank you so much!

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

Shay was so wonderful. Did you know she was originally a scientist? She worked on Salk's vaccine and many of them got sick from the formaldehyde and had to stop working in labs. She told me she took up embroidery while recovering in the hospital. The lives people lead...

[@gutterlaneembroidery8881]

Hi Trisha, Thank you for the mention. The reconstruction of the Broderers' Crown wasn't a commission, it was a research project supported by a grant from the Society of Antiquaries of London and the very capable assistance of friend and fellow tutor Mike Parr. The reconstruction was given to the Broderers' Company when it was completed. I look forward to accompanying you virtually on your travels.

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

Thank you for the clarification!

[@bayladystitcher]

Absolutely amazing exhibit. It’s on my bucket list to take a course at the Royal School of Needlework. Keep these videos coming!

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

The exhibit was certainly a surprise and so much with so little time to enjoy it.

[@sherrybush8276]

Amazing.

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

Thanks Sherry - hope the rest live up to this one

[@illogical_illogical940]

Hi! I’m so happy to have found your channel. Your embroidered box ( for lack of the correct word) is amazing. A labor of love for sure. I also still have my first embroidery project. I designed and stitched at around age 11. Regular yarn on burlap 😊. I’ve only done a few projects since then but I have always been interested. I now have more time and patience so I’m getting back onto stitching. Thanks for the history. 😊

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

Thank you for the nice comments on my casket. I should do a few videos about my caskets (antique and worked)

[@janiceconners6036]

Love this!! Looking forward to the next episode!

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

Only a few more days until the next one - at Witney Antiques

[@katiestrachanembroidery]

Welcome to flosstube, Tricia! The exhibition was absolutely stunning, and beautifully filmed. I've looked at photos of that burse a thousand times and never appreciated until now just how amazingly dimensional it is

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

Thanks for the shout out Katie!

[@wendyholt9988]

Wow!!! - this was just gorgeous - and I'm so pleased that you are going to join the world of Flosstube. The images were great and you have shown us lots of sparkly detail - - this is the sort of video that I will be visiting multiple times, because there is just so much to absorb - congratulations on a "first" VERY well done!

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

Thank you Wendy- I wasn't sure if the sparkles showed up well. They certainly were in person

[@AcupictrixDrJessicaGrimm]

I love your FlossTube debut, Tricia! Just a quick note on the Fishmonger's Pall: this isn't classical Opus anglicanum. It has no underside couching and there is no split stitch. Instead, they used a kind of very fine and regular brick stitch. Splitting the thread was not the aim. The diaper pattern in the background is made with normal surface couching. The embroidery style and design are also heavily influenced by mainland Europe (the Low Countries). I suspect that some parts were possibly made in mainland Europe or embroiderers from there worked on this piece in a London workshop.

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

Thanks Jessica, The guild had it listed as Opus Anglicanum so I thought the tent was larger as so much was overside couching.

[@janetbrandt171]

Loved it Tricia! Can’t wait for more .

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

Hi Janet - next video is in a week - hoping to put out content regularly

[@SmudgeAnimation]

Wow. I don't remember any of this. How old were we? 😉

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

I think you were around 5 - so no wonder!

[@Linda_James]

How old were you when you first taught in the guild?

[@triciawilsonnguyen]

I was about 13. It was a little class to a small subset of the guild members - very sweet of them to take teaching from a kid. Hardanger.
