This week’s guest is temari artist Jen Weber of the Clever Bunny Studio. The show is sponsored by the Embroiderers’ Guild of America at egausa.org. Jen Weber is a Shihan (certified teacher) of the Japanese Temari Association who has received numerous awards for her design work. While she does a good deal of temari design work, her real love, and the focus of her Clever Bunny Studio business, is teaching the technique to needleworkers at all levels. She can be found offering classes at venues such as the John C. Campbell Folk School and the Red Stone Glen Fiber Arts Center, as well as at her home studio. Jen will also be our guest on the Fiber Talk Stitch Hour live show, June 14 at 8:00 p.m. Eastern on the Fiber Talk YouTube channel. Join us as we explore her stunning temari and learn more about how she goes about creating her designs.–Gary

Fiber Talk Midweek Chat, 8-19-20

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
