Use the designs in Jessica Kemper’s book to embellish your clothing.Jessica’s kits include everything you need, including the hat.Embroidery artist Jessica Kemper of Field Guide Embroidery is our guest this week. The show is sponsored by the Embroiderers’ Guild of America and the EGA Sampler U. Register in the Events section at egausa.org. Jessica Kemper loves the outdoors and has found a way to marry that love with embroidery. Her animal designs are the perfect size for embellishing hats, jackets, shirts, and other types of clothing. She also teaches classes, offers kits, and has published a book titled “The Field Guide to Embroidery.” The book is filled with animal designs and instructions so you can stitch your own connection with nature. In the process, you’ll also learn the fur stitch, a Jessica Kemper creation. Also note that 10% of Jessica’s sales are donated to the Sageland Collaborative, an organization that uses “science in the service of wildlife and wetlands.” Keep up with Jessica’s designs through her social media accounts and, while you’re online, join the EGA and register for the EGA National Seminar and Sampler U.–Gary
Sampler University is a new offering for members and non-members at the 2025 EGA National Seminar.
