Over the next couple weeks here on Needle ‘n Thread, we’re going to be revisiting some beloved embroidery topics, projects, and series. There are quite a few hidden gems here on the website that I want to highlight again, especially for those who are new to Needle ‘n Thread – or for those who have been around so long that, like me, you may have forgotten what’s even on the website!

You might think I’m kidding about that, but I’m not! I just came across a few articles on a topic that I’ll be writing about soon, and I had one of those forehead-slapping moments:

“I’ve already written about this???”

And a few minutes later, after perusing the articles: “Wow. I really did write about this already. How could I have forgotten?!”

It’s always good to take a fresh look at old topics. And to that end, we’re going to re-visit some older topics and projects here on the website that, despite their age and despite all the advances in online technology in the past 17 years, have not gone “out of style.” They still have valuable information in them that is worth tucking away in your needlework repertoire.

One of the my favorite series here on Needle ‘n Thread will kick off this Topic Rejuvenation. It’s the Stitch Fun! series. While the series stretches back deep into the history of Needle ‘n Thread, it is not defunct, nor is it anywhere finished or complete. It’s an ever-developing series. I’m sure I’ll be adding more to it in coming months and years.

But for those who haven’t seen it and don’t know what it is, or for those who have forgotten about it, here’s a little recap of the series.
