White Collar Work

 

The latest piece in my 'Playing with Pojagi' series was fully revealed at the Spotlight Textiles exhibition at Snape Maltings. 

Pojagi is an ideal technique to show off double-sided materials such as these lovely old vintage lace and collars. The piece looks almost as good from the back.



The Pojagi piecing method with felled seams is also a great way of combinign fabrics of different weights and I will continue to explore this in further 'Playing with Pojagi' work

'Playing with Pojagi' will be the title of my solo exhibition in the Quay Gallery at Snape in October 2023 with lots more new work to show
