A new textile blog!

In a minute ago has been launched by sharon b. After I wrote about her stitch dictionary, we began emailing each other about blogging and lamenting the lack of non-knitting-textile-blogging (not that I don't like knitting, mind you. I just can't do it!). Sharon has a long history of exploring technology and stitching. She maintains an archive of digital-fiber explorations that she has been producing since 1996. It also turns out that her stitch dictionary barely scratches the depth of her knowledge on the subject. She has documented about 1200 different embroidery stitches and hopefully will be adding them via her blog, as time allows.

Stop by her blog now and make it a regular stop. She's down in Australia, a long ways from North Carolina (U.S.A), where I am, so her thoughts and perspectives will be literally a world away. And email me if you know any other good non-knitting-fiber blogs!
