Fiber Talk with Ronnie Rowe II

“Help” is a design inspired by a homeless person Ronnie saw in a local park. Proceeds from this design go to his local homeless shelter.
Headlight is one of Ronnie’s more-recent designs.
We last talked with Ronnie Rowe in May 2019. Much has happened since then and it was great to learn how his design work has evolved, how he goes about creating his unique designs, and to see what’s coming up. Sassy Jacks Stitchery is sponsoring this week’s show. Ronnie first made his mark in the cross stitch world with his timeless “pen-and-ink” designs. Today, he’s introducing more color and more detail to further enhance his captivating designs. One of his newest designs is “Help,” a scene based on a homeless person Ronnie observed in his community. All profits from that design will be donated to the local homeless mission. Ronnie’s first contribution of profits will be on Nov. 1. Please consider supporting this worthy cause. Enjoy our conversation with Ronnie Rowe and visit his website to see his catalog of unique cross-stitch designs.–Gary
