Have you ever heard of the Radio City Rockettes

They are a New York City institution best known for starring in the Radio City Christmas Spectacular, an annual Christmas show that’s been running for over 90 years and counting.

Starting in November each year, their show is a holiday tradition featuring dazzling choreography and festive performances by a cast of 80-100 dancers. It really is something to behold.

The reason we mention them is, if we were to create a musical spectacular to announce the release of Inspirations magazine issue #124, it would definitely have to feature the Rockettes.

After all, Inspirations issue #124 is without doubt an all-singing and all-dancing embroidered Christmas extravaganza.

Simply and elegantly titled ‘Joyful, joyful’ there is no doubt that is how you’ll feel after enjoying the festivities within.

Here is a rundown of all the wonders and delights from issue #124:

Mistletoe & Holly by Anna Scott Ornaments with sprigs of mistletoe and holly.

Festive Table by Fumie Suzuki Whitework table linen with baubles.

Betty Beetle by Tania Cohen The latest in a series of elegant and fun brooches .

Christmas Treats by Betsy Morgan  Clever and joyful ornaments that are also pincushions.

Rana by Maria Clara Warschauer Petite frog in three-dimensional goldwork.

Little Angels by Naomi Small Enchanting pair of angels.

Reticella Rose by Di Kirchner Beautiful linen needlework accessories.

In addition to all this stitched fabulousness, we also have our usual feature articles to enjoy including an interview with Fiona Gill who is known for her wet felt creations and stitched portraits, and a piece showcasing The Textile Research Centre in the Netherlands that focuses on the study of clothing and textiles. 

We also take a look at the Encyclopedia of Embroidery, a book series dedicated to recording embroidered traditions, and Feature Article writer Ansie van der Walt’s own regular column, Loose Threads, that in this issue is all about seasons.
