Gather Threads is a new collaboration between artist Amy Tsilemanis and seamstress Christine Crawshaw, featuring Amy’s collages printed onto fabric and sewn onto recycled clothing.
The act of combining the printed collages with the colours and fabrics of second-hand clothes and then thread, adds further layers of collage to the initial hand-cut paper artworks. It has been lots of fun! Each piece is a one-off, made with love.
You can also commission us to make your own one-off piece by selecting your chosen collage and a colour and size for your piece of clothing and we will create something special just for you!
