Tatiana’s latest book provides a unique approach to crewel design.One of the doodle designs from Tatiana’s book.Crewel and ribbon embroidery artist Tatiana Popova joins us this week. In our conversation we hear the story of her learning how to embroider, how Hazel Blomkamp and Di van Niekerk were instrumental in advancing her design skills, and how her husband’s business travel was the catalyst for her latest book, “Contrast in Crewel Embroidery.” If you’re interested in giving crewel embroidery a try, the book is an excellent resource for how to do a wide variety of stitches and design elements. We encourage you to visit Tatiana’s website, owl-crafts.com, and explore her other books and many kits.—Beth and Gary
