Fiber Talk Friday Night Live, 9-18-20

Please support our sponsor, Avlea Mediterranean Folk Embroidery.

It’s Friday and it’s a stitching night. Gary worked feverishly on Royal Garden and Jenifer worked in a more sane fashion on From Dawn to Dusk. Gather your favorite project, a beverage, and questions (if you have them), for an hour of needlework and conversation.

Punch needle design stitched by Jenifer Kopasz-Roos.

It’s the day before Thursday and we’re excited to have Jenifer Kopasz-Roos join the co-hosting team. In this show we get to know Jenifer and her stitching interests; mentally prepare Gary for tonight’s punch needle lesson with Karin Hedburg, punch needle instructor at Sassy Jacks; announce the next live tour with Gallery76 of the Embroiderers Guild Galleries NSW; talk more about Michelle Gajda’s wool applique art; and delve into making Temari balls. Note that Friday’s guest will be Dima Santina. Beth will be with us but we’ll talk about her fabric-dying efforts another time. Clearly Gary can’t keep dates straight. Enjoy the show and join us tonight, Aug. 19 at 8:00 Eastern on the Fiber Talk YouTube channel for the basics of the punch-needle technique. Sunday’s guest is Medeleine Harwell of Madeleine Elizabeth designs.–Jenifer and Gary
