This week we are joined by Beth Hoyes of Rabbit Hat Designs in a show sponsored by Avlea Folk Embroidery (avlea embroidery.com). Beth is an art therapist who recently moved to Colorado from the UK. Nature is what inspires Beth’s embroidery/needlepainting art, with a focus on the colors, shapes, and lines that occur when you close in on feathers, wings, and other animal body parts. Beth’s business is also very centered on offering sustainable products and packaging. We also learn about Beth’s upcoming book, “Beautiful Birds,” which will be available in June 2022. The book will offer instructions and 12 bird designs. It’s a terrific conversation with an energetic and talented needlework artist. After you listen to the show, take a few minutes to visit the Rabbit Hat Designs website to see all of Beth’s works.–Beth and Gary

Appreciation for pollinators has grown dramatically in recent years, along with increased sensitivity to widespread use of pesticides. Through her new book, “Needlepainted Plants and Pollinators,” this week’s guest, Victoria Matthewson, uses her embroidery art to shine a light on this issue. The book is a comprehensive guide to needlepainting, along with several designs of pollinators (many insects other than bees pollinate) and their favorite plants. We had a delightful conversation with this talented needle artist, learning about her needle-arts career, interest in insects and plants, and how she developed her new book. We also enjoy hearing about her terrific idea to build a sewing shed in her garden. Also, for a review of the book, be sure to visit Mary Corbet’s Needle ‘n Thread site at needlenthread.com.–Beth and Gary
