ALT A corner of the Gallery with two tubular sections of red and grey printed cloth suspended at different heights from the high ceilings. The Gallery is an industrial mill space with cream painted brick walls and large windows.
ALT A close up image of Joanna’s piece, The Long Years. The piece is a long section of linen, which has been attached horizontally at hip height across the brick wall with pins. There is a red stripe at the top and bottom of the linen, and abstract text and shapes have been printed onto it. In the centre of the image is a bright red cross.

Paper hand-stitched to cloth
If you are new to me, this is a piece I recently finished. The 98 circles-ish were cut from newspapers and magazines. They record personal, local, national and international events at the time of stitching.

A visit to the Whitworth to see two of my quilts in their collection. Stitching Up Oxford Rd (2007) was hand sewn using recycled plastic bags in 16 venues with 100s of people. So many stories and people, an important inclusive project #stitch #community #design @MMU_Research

‘Traditional craft and technique are at the foundation of her practice. This is a rebellion against the fast fashion industry that relies on speed, not quality’
Called in to @tjboulting and it did not disappoint.
