Emily Jo Gibbs

Emily Jo Gibbs has established an international reputation for her hand-stitched, silk organza appliqué portraits and still-lifes. Observing the quiet beauty of the overlooked. 

“I’m interested in the idea that by taking the time to slowly describe someone in stitch, you convey your admiration. Celebrating people who make things by the investment of time in making the work, a quiet, thoughtful act of care and value.”
