Inspiration: Dorie Millerson

March 12, 2009 by Denise Felton 1 Comment

I’m speechless. You will be, too, when you see the astonishing needlepoint-lace work of artist Dorie Millerson. I’m so glad that Joetta Maue blogged about Millerson on Hello Craft! Joetta’s review says,

When I first discovered artist Dorie Millerson’s needlepoint lace work…my heart swooned. Not only is her work technically beautiful and structurally amazing… but the emotional pull of the nostalgic imagery is powerful a one on your heart strings.

Dorie’s studio practice uses stitched and constructed works to discuss the ‘potential for interlacement’ within the human experience.  Her work is specifically interested in themes of attachment and memory.
