Meet the Artist – Karina Thompson

A little textile inspiration from my YouTube Textile Collection. Today it features the digital machine embroidery of Karina Thompson. Filmed at The Festival of Quilts 2019.

Textile artist, Karina, embraces digital data & digital technology in her work. She explains how she uses Photoshop, digital embroidery, free motion long arm quilting & digital print onto fabric, to create her uniquely embroidered textile art.

Karina’s “1 hour’s production = 1.5 miles = 15 lengths” large embroidered piece was part of the ‘Cloth and Memory 2’ exhibition at Salts Mill, Saltaire. It is stitched on woollen cloth woven in Yorkshire.
