This is rug made using a process called tufting, which is similar process to rug hooking. Made using 100% wool yarn from Briggs & Little mill in New Brunswick, Canadas oldest running wool mill! Each rug is unique and made using all my own illustrations.
Each rug comes with a hand stamped label on the back that is dated and numbered. The rugs are backed with a durable thick felt cloth to give the rug and durable and clean finish. Additionally, there are loops on the back with a dowel included to help for a simple wall installation.

My inspiration for this piece is driven from the history of craft- primarily ceramics and textiles, while exploring colour, pattern, my love for gardening, food, and domestic objects. I have always been interested in the cross-overs across craft disciplines. An example of this are the many patterns used for both quilt-making and ceramic tile-making. Another form of borrowing/sharing that interests me is the overwhelming amount of ceramics in still life painting, which helps to give us historical context about ceramics and its place, and shows us how people have been fascinated by ceramics for hundreds of years. In this series I have borrowed different elements of patterns, craft-base materials and processes, as the main content of my rugs. These still life compositions aspire to highlight and celebrate everyday objects seen in Nova Scotia.
