The Embroiderer’s Guild of America (EGA) magazine is called Needle Arts and the latest issue (Volume 51, Number 1, March 2020) arrived at home a couple of days ago and I just opened it up. Accompanying it was the Education Catalog 2020-2023. What a wonderful surprise it was to see my fish on page 5 advertising Step 1 of the Canvas Embroidery Master Craftsman Program.

Another women’s piece is shown for Step 3 to demonstrate diaper patterns.

Speaking of Step 3, I purchased Ann Strite-Kurz’s booklet and CD called Diaper Patterns. Ann signed it for me, “Welcome to my world of Diaper Patterns”. And, what a world! More like a universe. Not only does she walk you through how to create them but she has so many examples in the book and hundreds on the CD. I love the chapter with examples from a lot of designers and teachers.

I started playing with patterns almost immediately. Learning by doing is more fun than just reading. The possibilities are endless!
