I took a Japanese Boro class last weekend from Jody Alexander, a local book, textile and installation artist. I've been an admirer of her work for many years and have recently begun taking classes with her. Jody is an excellent teacher. I like her classes because she is thorough, brings tons of books and materials to share and paces her classes so that you don't feel rushed. Just so I don't get it wrong, here is the Wikipedia definition of Boro. There has been a lot of discussion lately…

i've recently been working on this boro bag. I started with no clear idea of what i was doing, so i just added random patches of vintage fabric and tiny boro stitches. I've used various different colour cottons over the whole thing. It's been a labour of love so far, quietly stitching never planning, just letting the needle finds its own way across the surface of the fabric creating it's own beauty. XOXO
