Learning to Read

2022 | 12"x 18"

Experimenting with a limited color palette, I explore layering similar yet different rectangle embroideries over similar yet different textile weaves. When combining hand stitching, domestic machine stitching and commercial machine stitching, it reminds me of letters forming words and sentences into meaning.

(Linen, cotton, burlap and polyester fabric scraps and cotton floss with hand embroidery and machine stitching.)
