Samplers for Selfridges




Make Do Type treatments for two samplers, to be used by Sally in her Idler Academy embroidery workshop this Friday evening at Selfridges. Part of their Words Words Words event. The texts both taken from Gaston Bachelard's seminal 'The Poetics of Space'. I'll be adding grids and solids, for demonstration of couching, shading and other fills but like them as artworks without any of that. We are working out a more developed, pre-printed embroidery kit with stitch instructions, for sale down the line.
