Fiber Talk with Amina K

Designed by Amina K.

Amina K is a talented, multi-technique needle artist and designer who regularly offers thoughtful insights in her Stitch Floral blog. In our conversation we learn about her background, needlework interests, and get a sense of what the needle arts hobby is like in Russia. We also have an opportunity to explore some of her views about art, embroidery, and efforts to advance her skills. Make it a point to follow her Stitch Floral blog. It’s good reading.–Gary
