Elsa Mora is hard at work! She is probably best known for her detailed paper cuts like the one above, but I really enjoyed the execution and arrangement of her porcelain work below also.

She is making lovely work in a variety of mediums, so go have a look!

Although Richard Saja is probably best known for his work unhorsing toile, we were also compelled by his embroidered timepiece for the Make Time for a Green Cause benefit.

According to Saja’s site, “Reading outwards from the center, the numerals are in UPC code, Braille, Postal code and Morse code.”

Saja has done quite a lot of engaging work. If you see him, you should give him a handshake.

Angelo Filomeno uses silk to embroider his work on stretched linen. He got some attention as part of the popular “Pricked: Extreme Embroidery” exhibit earlier this year.

You can see more of his work at the Galerie Lelong.

Megan Whitmarsh made a lot of noise a couple years back with her paintings embroidered with cotton detail. For those of you not familiar with her work, it’s a fiesta of fun.

I thought you might want more… Go here and here.

Another great permutation in the revival of textile arts as design via Inger of Hello Craft Lovers. I would be interested to know more about the meaning of the Swedish folklore represented. (AO starts quietly singing L.L. Cool J classic Mama Said Knock You Out).

Hella Jogerius has a design lab where she creates unusual medium mixes.
