Fiber Talk with Ruth Miller

Ruth Miller self portrait.
Ruth Miller of Embroidered Realism joins us this week. Ruth’s life-sized embroidered artwork is breathtaking and the thought process behind it will give you a new appreciation for how a true artist expresses her thoughts with needle and thread. Ruth uses Paternayan wool yarn to bring a drawing to life. But the portrait is only part of the art. Every piece has a story behind it and Ruth tells that story with the various elements that surround and integrate with the portrait. After you listen to the podcast, we encourage you to visit Ruth’s website, watch the videos, and explore her art. It will be an uplifting and inspiring experience.–Beth and Gary

Fiber Talk Midweek Chat 2-2-22

Beth’s Pour Ta Fete progress.
We’re already at the first Wednesday of February and the second month of our WIPGO efforts. The WIPGO numbers for February are 5 an 17 and we talk about the projects we’ll be stitching this month. We also discuss the potential overload of online and live classes and events we’re seeing in the needlework hobby these days and the pros and cons that are part of that dynamic. Other topics include Gary’s new magnifier light and our inability to answer the question: Why do we both like large projects? Join us tonight for the Fiber Talk Stitch Hour at 8:00 p.m. Eastern on the Fiber Talk YouTube channel. We’re stitching and chatting tonight and stitching with us will be Natalie Dupuis. Grab your favorite project and adult beverage and join us for an hour of needlework conversation.–Beth and Gary
