Call for contributors

Embroidery is searching for contributors with good feature ideas for the magazine. If you have a burning desire to write on an aspect of embroidery or the related applied arts, both past and present, we would love to hear from you. Initially, we would welcome ideas for our feature pages but we would also like to hear direct from embroiderers and textile artists about their work. Anyone who is interested should email the editor, Joanne Hall - or write to her (see the contact page), with a one-page proposal and an indication of the illustrations they would use.
