Emily Dickinson Portrait Textile Art Brooch by Michelle Holmes
£30.00
Round brooch featuring a unique free machine embroidered image inspired by the American poet Emily Dickinson.
Emily Elizabeth Dickinson was an American poet. Little-known during her life, she has since been regarded as one of the most important figures in American poetry. Emily has inspired this wonderful piece of free machine and hand embroidery mixed with applique.
Renowned textile artist Michelle trained in Embroidered Textiles at Loughborough University and now works from a studio housed within an old red brick Methodist Chapel in Melbourne just over the border into Derbyshire. Her creative practice is rooted in her love for drawing with stitch, appliqué and collage. She works by re-purposing fabrics and exploring the reflective and tactile qualities of natural fibres.
Stitches are made with free machine embroidery made on a Bernina Sewing Machine coupled with hand stitching.
Materials - re-purposed linen, cotton and leather with a soft leather backing and metal brooch pin
Dims: Height 6.3cm x Width 5cm
