The philosophy
I had a dream of
getting more time, time to take my time ...
I found time in
needlework.
After many years
in the labour market, where time was measured in quantity more than quality
I decided that my now so precious time should be spent on furthering of the
handicraft of the past – the needlework.
My education
I was educated at
the Skals Håndarbejdsskole (The Arts and Crafts School in Skals) and am
today working with designing and needle working new needlework methods,
bases on old classic sewing techniques, so that I can thus pass on a nearly
forgotten cultural heritage to future generations.
In recent years,
needle working has been rather ridiculed and definitely not something you
should spend time on – you had to exploit time.
Today I see a new interest in embroidering, especially the old sewing
techniques in classic white embroidery – English, Venetian and French
embroidery.
3D
I combine the old
techniques
with 3D embroidery as a renewal.
