    After graduating from Parsons School of Design, I began my career in fashion design and freelanced both in New York City, as well as London. I designed hand knits for Elle Magazine and was the editor of the Hand Knit Page before hand knits fell out of fashion in the early 1990's and the page was discontinued. In 2008 I launched my jewelry design business, designing fine jewelry in 18 & 20 Kt Gold with gemstones that I hand select for each piece. Several awards and numerous write ups & interviews in all kinds of magazines and online zines, I found Sue Spargo in 2015 through her Craftsy class, and my life took another turn. I have been designing in some form since I sold my first felt embroidered xmas tree ornaments to a small shop in Northern California when I was 16 years old, and have never looked back. And while I've had detours along the way: had two children, worked at an advertising agency, got into acting in my early 20's, published some articles for various magazines and wrote for the Huffington Post for a few years, I have always come back to designing. It is my first love and remains so to this day.

    So beautiful! I love the addition of the roving and silk hankies. I use a 2" thick piece of foam for hand felting. However, the wool mat is a good option, too. Thank you for sharing! Enjoying your process! You are such an inspiration!! 😍

    Oh I just got some wool roving for trying out needle felting... But now I think I might watch this a couple of times to see how to mess with it in another way! My favourite colours are blues, greens, and browns, so I will look for those colours in wool, thread and hand dyed fabric, cos I am inspired by you so so much.

    • @ArianeZurcher212
      @ArianeZurcher212  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Vanessa, I love, love, love using wool roving. It's so great and fun to work with and you can stitch right on top of it, which is also fun. ❤️

    I'm back in my stitching room preparing to make the scissors case having sorted my old fabrics. Can't justify buying new hand dyed fabrics and tried dying at a friend's once - and it's not for me. Still I've plenty of pretty threads etc to liven things up and hopefully free up my way of stitching more!☺ Happy New Year to you and your family.

    Very cool! I love how this art work has evolved from a beautiful piece of hand dyed linen. Now to get the punch, silk hankies, and roving in colors to match... Waiting on some linen from Fabric on a Whim. Once it arrives I’ll start imagining. Thanks Ariane! Have a wonderful day! I look forward to more tomorrow. Merry Christmas!! 🎄

    Wet Belly Fibers has all kinds of silk stuff, roving, hankies, cocoons, and more. Also they have other fibers, merino, tensel, mulberry, rose fiber….check them out, lots of fun stuff. Also, well, you are a new discovery to me, mentioned by Susan Taylor Brown (thank you, Susan!) and I love your work! I have accumulated a few vintage wool blankets, and I’m wondering what you think of using parts of a wool blanket for a substrate? Or, what do you like to use for a substrate? Thank you Ariane, for your videos, your time and your thoughts! Xo

    Ariane, silk hankies can be spun and you can knit with them. For spinning and knitting you make a hole in the centre and start pulling. If you keep moving around the circle pulling the silk fibres out you will end up with a length of yarn about 100-120 inches. I had never tried using it like roving, but I will now.

    I just found this site. Your work is absolutely amazing. You are felting on top of linen but will this be a wall hanging or a rug. Been considering making a rug using the roving and not sure if I want to felt it or needle punch it. Absolutely love your art

    • @ArianeZurcher212
      @ArianeZurcher212  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's a wall hanging. The materials I use are too fragile to be used as a rug and walked on. ❤️

    Hello. Ariane, how long roughly does it take you to completely finish a piece that you have embroidered? They are all really beautiful xxx
