Images above: Land cloth 2016 by Elisabeth Rutt

Part of the appeal of textile art is the tactile quality. All to often in a gallery setting you are not allowed to touch the art, but nevertheless the desire to feel the fabric and stitching is still part of the experience. Elisabeth Rutt’s Land Cloth is over two metres long and was created to be displayed on a horizontal surface. It is comprised of cotton threads hand stitched onto mixed fibre dry felt, and one can only imagine what a lovely piece it is to have and to hold.
