Craft and Quilts Show Melbourne
A visit to the #CraftandQuiltsShow today to try out the new Toyota embroidery machine #Oekaki. Think I much prefer my #Husqvarna and #Bernina. Lots of people buying lots of stuff. There will be a lot of larger stashes in Melbourne by the end of the weekend!
The Hand Embroidery of Textile Artist Gilda Baron
Beautiful textile work by Bozena Wojtaszek
I have just come across the lovely work of Polish textile artist Bozena Wojtaszek. Bozena lives in Poland and creates gorgeous art quilts. I love the way she starts with scraps of material to create such beautiful work. She says her quilts are a contemporary way to involve art in everyday life, to let it into our houses, on the tables. Her creations are mostly inspired by the charm of small things and are made to give the same feeling of beauty. I really like the way she uses a mixture of hand and machine sewing in her works.
Her blog is called Textile Cuisine where you can go and see more of her work and she also has an Etsy shop
You can see her at work on YouTube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xLYCttICZ-I.
