Sculptural goldwork by Georgina Bellamy.Goldwork needle art created by Georgina Bellamy.This week’s Fiber Talk guest is That Embroidery Girl, Georgina Bellamy. The show is sponsored by Avlea Folk Embroidery. Out of commuting necessity, Georgina developed her technique for creating Sculptural Goldwork. She has combined that with her fashion background and a lot of determination to build a career designing and teaching impressive needle art. “Inspirations” magazine has published two of her designs. One is the Jewel of the Sea turtle that appears in the “Passion for Needlework, Blakiston Creamery” book. Georgina loves to teach and you can expect new classes in the near future. Her designs are impressive and unique, as is her needlework journey. Be sure to visit her social media pages to see more of her art.–Beth and Gary
