Recently I was contacted by artist Sarah Pedlow, who has been researching embroidery techniques and traditions in areas such as Budapest, Hungary, Blonduos, Iceland, and Oaxaca, Mexico.
Sarah is looking to fund her upcoming residency studying Dutch Textile Traditions with an Indiegogo campaign.
Contributions to Sarah's residency fund are rewarded with some rather beautiful embroidered items, from authentic embroidery stitched by women in Transylvania to a kit that teaches the Hungarian written stitch with materials, to a silkscreened project bag that can be used as is or embroidered with a simple chain or back stitch.
Sarah's work is fascinating - I encourage you to take a look at her Indiegogo page, visit http://threadwritten.com/ to learn about her upcoming classes, or follow her on Instagram.
