Fiber Talk with Diane Bertelson

This week we welcome the very talented painted-canvas designer, Diane Bertelson of Pepperberry Designs. Diane’s passion for needlepoint began more than 20 years ago while contributing her design expertise and stitching efforts as a member of a charitable organization. With a degree in graphic design, professional creative experience at companies that include Nestle and Eldon-Rubbermaid, and years as a dedicated needlepointer, Diane found canvas design a natural extension for her talents. In February of 2013, she launched Pepperberry Designs.

A multi-faceted designer and experienced in a variety of mediums and disciplines, Diane finds inspiration for her needlepoint designs through her love of color, textiles, holiday traditions, travel, family and pets. In addition to needlepoint, Diane is an avid gardener, floral arranger and artist who currently resides in Louisville, Colorado with her husband, three children, and two golden retrievers. We hope you enjoy our conversation with Diane Bertelson.–Christine and Gary
