- Maria Thomas’s work focuses on memories & aspects of motherhood. She repurposes everyday objects & discarded cloth. Ephemera of shopping lists, food wrappers & graphic packaging are cut out & stitched before being absorbed into the fabric by patchwork & quilting techniques. Filmed at the Knitting & Stitching Show, Alexandra Palace 2021.

I wonder if she's sewn on the plastic or paper labels from packaging or if they are printed onto cloth and then sewn. Both ways are just perfect for her fun, eclectic whimsical style. I think she's the auntie or mom everyone wishes they had! Fabulous!
My understanding is that Maria stitches directly into the original packaging. So glad you enjoyed it!
Textil kann so vielfältig sein - wunderbar - bin begeistert

Oh that struck some heart cords. I moved abroad a long time ago from Ireland and my aunt always would write to me. My mother is in the last scenes of her life and it's been hard watching from a distance all the people I love disappear. Very moving.

Estoy muy emocionada por haber encontrado este canal de arte texil.
Lo máximo sería que pusieras subtitulos en español... Me tengo que conformar con ver sin entender lo que hablan.
Totalmente agradecida por tan rico contenido saludos desde Argentina
Muchas gracias por tu mensaje. Vuelva a consultar pronto. Estoy empezando a añadir subtítulos en español. 🙏
How lucky you are to have grown up with such a loving, caring female environment. Mine has been cruel,jealous and hateful for generations. If I made these sort of things, how different they would be. Your work is lovely.
Thank you for watching 😊

I LOVE your pieces of art. Your use of bottle caps on the jacket inspired me. I have a large container of bottlecaps. I do not make garments, but I am a quilter. Especially love your Cathedral Window Quilt and use of buttons.
So glad you enjoyed it Helen 😊

Stunning work. I was wondering how you sewed the labels from containers and what needle size you use? Did you use an industrial sewing machine?
