the the new york times featured uk designer, claire cole recently in their currents post on wallcoverings she pieces together from vintage wallpapers. she picks up old wallpapers from flea markets and charity shops and then cuts out the flowers, birds, etc and sews them onto other antique papers with a loose and delicate stitch, using an embroidery machine. sometimes she adds bits of flocked paper, felt, leather and gems. she was widely blogged about this past year about her embroidered tables, but i hadn't seen these papers or her ceramics.
