Fibre art is any fine art that uses natural or synthetic fibre, fabric or yarn to create an item that can be displayed, used or worn.

There are says Sarazen Anyin more than fifty different fibre arts from sewing to Nålebinding.

In this episode of podcast Rest and Recreation, Sarazen describes her introduction to fibre arts with embroidery, and how that initial interest became a passion and then a career.

Michael and Sarazen explore the history of fibre arts and the evolution of the technical size of the craft.

Inspired? Sarazen explains the easy way to get started with fibre arts and how to explore the different aspects of fibre arts.
