Fiber Talk with Birgit Tolman


Listen Later

This is a Birgit Tolman original design.
This beautiful will be released in the near future at The Wishing Thorn.Birgit Tolman of The Wishing Thorn joins us this week. The show is sponsored by the Embroiderers’ Guild of America. Birgit has lived a life of art, creativity, teaching, and needlework. She diverted for a year to work designing and cutting gravestones, then decided she was better off focusing on needle and thread. Today, her Wishing Thorn business focuses on designing original samplers and reproducing antiques. Birgit is at home doing either. Her large collection of antiques includes two that her grandmother created. In our conversation we learn about her business journey, how she approaches design and reproduction, and get to see her next original design. Be sure to visit her website to explore all of her offerings and, while you’re online, head over to egausa.org to become a member of the Embroiderers’ Guild of America.–Gary
