Fiber Talk with Alison and Steve Cole

Interior view of Little Bit of Luxe casket by Alison and Steve Cole.
This week’s show is a special video with Alison Cole and her husband Steve. In the video we learn about the Cole’s new casket project, Little Bit of Luxe. This is a project that has been in the works for several years. The needlework design is Alison at her finest and it’s always interesting to learn what’s behind her creations. Equally interesting is the wooden casket that underlies the needlework. It took a great deal of time and several iterations for Steve to create the box and its secret compartments and he shares all that went into that design effort. It’s a fascinating collaboration that resulted in an affordable and approachable casket project. You can watch the video at the Fiber Talk Website, wetalkfiber.com, by going to wetalkfiber.com/casket, or by visiting the Fiber Talk YouTube channel. We hope you enjoy this special Fiber Talk video show and encourage you to visit Alison Cole’s website to learn more.–Beth and Gary

Our topics this week are perfection being the enemy of good/progress, the impact of social media on needlework expectations, learning from classes without being overwhelmed, and what causes women to lack confidence in their needlework.
