This 36-in.-long sampler will be available soon from Morning Glory Needleworks.Dawn Fisher’s Alphabet of Stitchers sampler.This week’s needle artist is Dawn Fisher of Morning Glory Needleworks. The show is sponsored by the Embroiderers’ Guild of America. Dawn’s love, passion, and specialty is reproducing antique samplers and her large collection contains some unique pieces. When she isn’t reproducing samplers, Dawn designs her own samplers, in addition to creating blackwork and whitework designs. Dawn also loves to teach needlework and does so regularly either live or online. A favorite teaching project is her popular button box. In our conversation we talk about the various aspects of Dawn’s stitching career and how she started Morning Glory Needleworks, shut it down to go to school, then renewed the business and made it her full-time love and occupation. At the end of the conversation we talk about a new design Dawn is finishing and will have available soon. Beth and Gary have claimed the first two copies, but there will be plenty for others.–Beth and Gary
