#36 Uncommon Threads, an Interview with Rebecca Ringquist

RR Profile

Artist and teacher Rebecca Ringquist pulls embroidery out of its classic confines, using her needle and floss to tell modern stories in cloth. This episode she and Christine chat about her process, the art of collecting, and her new book, Rebecca Ringquist’s Embroidery Workshops: A Bend-the-Rules Primer.

If you’re interested in info on her upcoming workshops, or in buying some of her beautiful samplers, check out Dropcloth Samplers. And for you Instagram hounds, Rebecca makes nice pictures, too. Below, you’ll find beautiful inspiration from Rebecca’s book.

In this episode, Rebecca and Christine also talk about another great book, Collected: Living with the Things You Love, by Fritz Karsh and Rebecca Robertson. And if you like this conversation, you may also enjoy episode #25 with Liesl Gibson of Oliver + S.
