Podcasts about Embroidery

Embroidery artist Ekaterina (Kate) Sinchinova joins us this week for a show sponsored by the Embroiderers’ Guild of America at egausa.org. Kate describes herself as creating “realistic embroidery with a 3D effect.” What that means is she stitches outstanding pieces of landscape needleart using scenes near her home on the east coast. The depth and realism of her work is stunning. Why does she use thread instead of paint or other media? Because threads aren’t messy. We hope you enjoy the conversation and encourage you to spend some time browsing her gallery at her website. We also appreciate it if you support our sponsor, the Embroiderers’ Guild of America, and consider becoming a Fiber Talk Patreon member at Patreon.com/FiberTalk.–Gary Listen to the podcast: Watch the video You can listen by using the player above or you can subscribe to Fiber Talk through iTunes, Amazon Music, Spotify, Audible, Google Podcasts, TuneIn, Podbay, and Podbean.

This episode of the Stitch Safari Podcast is the first in a series entitled 'Dynamic Embroidery'. Embroidery is an art form that adheres to the same practices, principles and devices as all other art forms - and that's exactly what I want to demonstrate with this Dynamic Embroidery series. And the first in this amazing series deals with the Power of Texture.Show Notes here: https://stitchsafari.com/dynamic-embroide…power-of-texture/

Alison Moloney and Rachel Dedman discuss the garmentswhich opened the show Material Power: Palestinian Embroidery, which reflect the everyday clothing rural Palestinian women wore in the early twentiethcentury.

When Leo Torosian started studying old photographs of Armenian revolutionaries, he noticed something strange: almost every fighter posed with a flag. But these weren't the neat, simple flags we know today, they were covered in text, embroidered with poems, and broke every rule of good flag design.Now, in his Los Angeles apartment surrounded by recreated flags from the 1890s, Leo has become possibly the world's only specialist in Armenian revolutionary flags. Following his detective work through faded photographs and museum archives, we uncover how these flags became the lifeline of a stateless people fighting against colonial empires.Through Leo's research, we discover how Armenian fedayi used flags not just as battlefield markers, but as propaganda tools photographed in studios and sent worldwide to fund a 20-year revolution. This is the story of symbols, survival, and what happens when the country you're fighting for exists only on a piece of cloth.This episode was produced and sound designed by Maxim Saakyan. Flag Rules voice over by Mariam Koloyan.Thanks for listening!

So why do people fall in love with embroidery, and what keeps them hooked?  We know it's a sensory experience that's soothing and engaging, allowing personal creativity free rein.  But embroidery is also a learned skill, one that can be successfully self-taught, providing a sense of accomplishment and confidence-building.  It's continuous learning and curiosity that sparks further innovation, still able to offer a connection with our past and an appreciation of the artistic heritage of embroidery.In this episode, let's find out more about the connective power of passion and curiosity in embroidery through the stories of five fascinating embroiderers who have followed their own paths to create unique textile art.

In this conversation, I sit down with Sophia Demirtas, founder of Fanm Mon, the radiant brand known for its folkloric embroidery and globally inspired femininity. Sophia shares how her multicultural life experience shapes her vision—from the symbolism behind Fanm Mon's lush, hand-embroidered garments to the intentional way her team honors heritage and sustainability.Fanm Mon explores how clothing can be both a celebration of self and a bridge between cultures, and how tradition and a love for artistry inform every pieces. If you've ever felt moved by the story behind a garment–or are looking to be—this episode is for you.RESOURCES:Shop Fanm Mon here.Follow along on Facebook and Instagram.

The English textile artist Alison Holt uses her imagination to capture landscapes and nature and then weave them into colorful canvases that are often taken for paintings. Alison says: 'Each piece is a combination of silk painting and freehand machine stitching. The painting creates depth, perspective and richness to the work and combines effectively with stitch to give detail and texture.' Her work can be found in private collections around the world and in galleries from London to Sydney.  Alison was born in Oswestry, Shropshire in 1956, the youngest of two girls, to Cyril and Brenda Holt who were garage proprietors. Her father died of a brain tumor when she was just 13 and her mother was left to raise her daughters. Her parents always supported her artistic interests and by the time Alison graduated from Oswestry Girls High School she had only one ambition which was to get into art college. From Shrewsbury Art School she was accepted into the prestigious Goldsmith College in London from where she graduated with a BA Hons in Fine Art Textiles, specializing in  Embroidery. By now her talent had already been recognized and she was immediately offered an exhibition and given commissions. She returned to Shropshire and began what was to become a parallel vocation in teaching at Wexham Art College. Alison married in 1993 and worked part time in her studio while raising her two boys Tom and Jonathan. For 40 years now Alison has built her business as a textile artist, which includes writing books about her practice and teaching courses at her home studio throughout the year. Alison lives in Oswestry with her husband John Moses and their dog Bobby.

Today on Stitch Wish Radio, I'm sitting down with the incredible Gabriela Martínez Ortiz—textile artist, embroidery visionary, and the creator of Ofelia & Antelmo. Gabriela's work is this beautiful meeting point between repetition, nature, and intuitive process. We talk about how embroidery became her way of slowing down, finding healing, and reclaiming her artistic voice after leaving the fast-paced world of fashion. Her story is deeply inspiring—woven with themes of lineage, inner knowing, and the slow evolution of craft into purpose.Whether you're an artist, a dreamer, or just feeling your way toward a slower, more intentional life—this conversation is for you.Gabriela's Website: https://ofeliayantelmo.com/en/Her Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ofeliayantelmoMy New Book, The Art of Embroidery Design https://bookshop.org/p/books/the-art-of-embroidery-design-expand-your-creativity-an[…]l-stitching-designs-christi-johnson/21470337?ean=9781635867664The new pocket altar workshop I mentioned https://mixed-color-school.teachable.com/p/pocket-altar-workshop(00:04:08) Transforming Embroidery into Versatile Textile Art(00:05:52) Intricate Stitch Creations in Embroidery Workshops(00:13:56) Gabriela's Therapeutic Journey Through Embroidery(00:17:44) Embroidery: A Journey to Creative Fulfillment(00:23:43) Embroidery: Connecting through Infinite Stitching Journeys(00:32:01) Organic Patterns: Nature's Influence in Design(00:35:47) Cultural Textile Traditions in Contemporary Embroidery(00:36:44) Organic Patterns: A Visual Exploration

The wool is sourced, processed, and dyed in the U.S. and comes on spools that contain 210 yd. If you’re color challenged and/or intimidated by selecting/changing colors, the Palette Scout is easy to use and can become your new best stitching friend, especially if you purchase the $5 DMC conversion pdf.

When young Shay Pendray told the head of her school that she wanted to learn to sew, he had a prerequisite: He would give her a lamb, and she would learn to process the wool, spin it into yarn, and weave it into cloth, and then she could learn to sew. It was an extraordinary home ec class, but the administrator in question was Henry Ford. Shay was one of the students in Greenfield Village, a living museum on the grounds of what is now the Henry Ford Museum. Shay has combined curiosity, hard work, good fortune, and a passion for needle arts ever since. Many fiber artists will remember Shay from the Needle Arts Studio with Shay Pendray. Wanting to share her knowledge of needlework, she developed a television series that ran on PBS stations for years. Before finding a national television audience, Shay opened successful needlework shops, studied embroidery in Japan, China, and Britain, and wrote several books. After decades as a business owner, television pioneer, and teacher, Shay finds great joy in sitting down with needlework every day, reveling in the variety of threads, materials, and information available to stitchers. Besides needle arts, Shay's other passion is for horses. She loves to ride her horse in the open spaces of Wyoming, admiring the value of the greens and golds in the landscape. Not long before we spoke, USA Today wrote (https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2019/10/15/85-year-old-michigan-cowgirl-still-drives-cattle-across-wyoming/) about her: “This 85-year-old cowgirl is still herding cattle across Wyoming: ‘We will age together.'” This episode marks the fifth anniversary of the Long Thread Podcast, which was first released in April 2020. I've thought so fondly of this conversation, our first podcast to release, and was excited to revisit it. This episode is brought to you by: Treenway Silks is where weavers, spinners, knitters and stitchers find the silk they love.
