Podcasts – Fiber Talk

Natalie Tyler joins us this week in a show sponsored by the Embroiderers Guild of America at egausa.org. The pandemic was a turning point for Natalie, providing an opportunity to apply her art background to embroidery and develop her version of the art form. The result is a wide array of designs and design types, including pet portraits (including a snake), people portraits, 3D pieces, and using a thrift-store sweater as a canvas. She hasn’t stopped at small pieces. Her Memory Duvet is one of what will likely be many installation pieces designed for public viewing. Her current project is stitching a flower a day for a year. It’s been a scramble at times, but she’s delivered and will complete the project sometime in October. Fiber Talk Patreon subscribers can enjoy an extra video that shares details about that project. Natalie is full of creative ways to express her art through embroidery and you’ll enjoy hearing her story.—Beth and Gary Listen to the podcast: This show is also available on FlossTube.

Long-time Fiber Talk listener Edna Sanabia grew up on a farm in a creative household where idle-time activities focused on embroidery and other forms of needlework. That childhood enjoyment of needlework became a love when her children started going to school. Edna is the first listener in a new intermittent series in which we interview Fiber Talk listeners to learn how they came to enjoy needlework and make it an integral part of their lives. Edna shares how she goes about stitching, doing some designing and what aspects of stitching excite her. Let us know what you think about this new series and enjoy learning about a truly talented stitcher.—Gary Listen to the podcast: This show is also available on FlossTube.
