Carrie Burch: Changing the World One, Stitch at a Time
Written by Kelly Brown | Wednesday, 29 August 2018 12:46 |When you hear the word “embroidery,” you might not immediately think “artform,” but for Carrie Burch of Stitch Folks, embroidery is just as much a medium of art as painting or sculpture.

Her embroidery company, Stitch Folks, has been featured in Magnolia Journal and Better Homes and Gardens.

Review: ‘Bullets Over Broadway’ goes above and beyond
Written by Marin Heinritz | Thursday, 16 August 2018 17:56 |The terrific 1994 Oscar-winning black comedy “Bullets Over Broadway” is a theater lovers’ film.
