Barklie jacket project
A collection of patches made by students and friends
featuring our crazy and sweet family dog Barklie
Project concept
For years I have been thinking about a way to capture all the interesting people from around the world that I have taught classes and done tech support for on chainstitch machines.
Currently it's over 100 people from almost every corner of the world, and I have decide to ask that those who are interested donate a patch that they make and I will sew all of them on a jacket together.
Design criteria
Your take on our family dog Barklie.
This can be a portrait, in any style, or think outside the box and come up with your take on this crazy girl.
About Barklie:
-9 year old German Shorthaired Pointer
-Rescue dog, found in the woods of Tennessee
-Vegetarian, carrots are her favorite
-Hates squirrels and the neighbor's dog Peaches
-Loves her bunny brother Banjo
Project details:
-This is an open ended project with no deadline, but in 2025 would be great
-When patches arrive they will be sewn on and featured, along with the artist, on my Instagram and website
-The jacket is a XXL denim jacket
-I ask that all patches are made by those submitting them on a chainstitch machine
-I'll ask that each submission includes a photo of the artist (digital via email) and a signature. I will be compiling those on the jacket as well
Thank you for your participation and I can't wait to see all these wonderful patches
