Description

From his renowned walnut ink illustration, Mydsommer Pickings is a direct translation of Giles's botanical drawings, depicting embroidered pomegranates and poppyheads on a linen ground. The pattern is repeated to create an all over design and encompasses a plethora of stitching techniques, layered to intensify the depth and luxury of this embroidered fabric. An apothecary of medieval delights appears in this curling tendril design, which unfurls before your eyes. Referencing historic hand embroidery, the linen base enhances the lavish stitching, which is free-flowing and organic yet dramatic in equal measure, and loosely based on drawings of Chelsea Physic Garden.
