A Needle Pulling Thread Issue 54 Sampler

Read all about it! This issue is dedicated to exploring faces in needlework, starting with exploring several ways of making quilted portraits. Quilting may be a ton of fun, but even the simplicity of patchwork has its learning curve. Outside of the quilt block is a whole new set of design and quilting skills just waiting to be explored. I encourage you to join our designers in their captivating quilting portrait adventures and give making a quilted portrait a whirl! Some skills to explore involve a study in colour and shading, curve piecing, and photo editing capabilities. In knitting and crochet we offer three dog coat patterns, and a special feature on how to go about designing a dog coat to fit your dog. The fun never ends in the company of awesome needlework ideas!

Embellish Your Life with Sulky

Diane Gloystein

A love of beautiful clothing and a desire

to create unique, one-of-a-kind designs

led to a lifelong love affair with fashion,

fabric and fiber arts. A sense of whimsical

imagination is found in many of Diane's

creations.

Her mother taught her to sew and

ripped out her early sewing mistakes

until she eventually developed a passion

for sewing. Ten years of 4-H sewing

followed by a Bachelor's degree from the

University of Nebraska with an emphasis

in Textiles, Clothing & Design gave her a

strong foundation in the area of textile

arts. Diane has been privileged to study

under renowned fiber artists including

Dr. Robert Hillestad, Vince Quevedo and

Tim Harding. She has served as a board

member for Friends of the Hillestad

Gallery, a fiber arts gallery in Lincoln,

Nebraska.

Diane's professional background includes

managing clothing stores, owning her

own fashion accessories business known

as In Perfect Harmony, and working as

an enrichment lecturer aboard cruise

ships speaking on the art of being a welldressed

woman. Her current position

as a National Educator representing

Sulky of America is the fulfillment of a

dream which offers her the extraordinary

opportunity to inspire students with a

myriad of sewing techniques, surface

design and embellishment ideas. She

travels extensively, teaching at the

Original Sewing & Quilting Expos as well

as presenting Sew Exciting seminars

in quilting and fabric stores across

the country where her high energy

presentations, incredible array of inspiring

samples and infectious enthusiasm are

met with rave reviews.

Diane is a featured artist with her quilted

Fiber Bubbles jacket in Sulky's newest

book, "Quick & Easy Weekend Quilting

with Sulky".

She lives in Lincoln, Nebraska with her

husband, Larry. They enjoy entertaining,

decorating their home and traveling to

visit their three grown children.

Features over 25 must-haves techniques.
