#82 - Christi Johnson, Stitch Witch

Christi Johnson creates mystical garments that blend elements of botanical dyes with handcrafted stitches. She is the creator Mixed Color, a collection of textile goods made with natural materials and plant dyes, as well as an educational resource for textile artists. She is also the creator of Stitch Wish, a collection of hand embroidered talismans designed as a form of metaphysical enhancement for use in ritual.

Christi is also the author of Mystical Stitches: Embroidery for Personal Empowerment and Magical Embellishment. All of her work with textiles and talismans honor the body, its boundaries, its extensions, and its relations to the world and cosmos around us.

As a teacher, she also offers workshops in natural dyeing and embroidery and has created kits and booklets for students and DIYers. Her garments, booklets, kits, and embroidered artwork have sold at maker studios and boutiques across the US.

Raised in tropical Florida, Christi studied Fashion Design at Otis College of Art and Design. She worked in the fashion industry in Los Angeles for nearly a decade, before starting her own line of mystical garments and stitched artwork.

On this episode, Christi discusses talismanic fashion, why we should push past creative perfectionism, and the meditative magic of making.

Pam also talks about string spells, and answers a listener question about building a witch-friendly art therapy practice.

Our sponsors for this episode are VERAMEAT, Witch Baby Soap, Kate’s Magik, Snowy Owl Tea, BetterHelp, Lindsay Mack’s THRESHOLD course, and Fat and the Moon
