Stitched Felt Objects – Since 2006

In 2021, I made three large stitched felt hangings for an exhibition called “Kitsch” at the Alberta Craft Council. Trapper Bingo sold.

2017     When Words Fail, an Alberta Craft Council Spotlight Exhibition in November, included some books as well as cylinders on turntables and standing book forms on the theme of  conversations, all made of stitched felt.

I like the tactile feel of felt, buttons, beads and thread. I like the bright colours and the activity of cutting and stitching. Some of these pieces were made on trains, planes, and in hotels. They are conversations that run through my head when I am staring out a window, conversations I wished I’d had, conversations I have overheard, conversations I have revised in the recollection of them. Here they are in coloured shapes, buttons, beads, and stitched thread.
