Joanne Sargent
eco-woolies wearable art
For three decades, Joanne has been a designer, custom-dressmaker, and expert stitcher. She has designed for stores, weddings, and individual clientele. She has stitched costumes for national and local theater and dance. Equally at home with knitting, sewing, and decorating, Joanne specializes in functional (often wearable) art. All of her work is hand-constructed, and each piece is a unique one-of-a-kind creation.
Winter 2008-2009
In her new collections, showing at retail outlets in New England, Joanne breathes new life into old materials. Wool sweaters are shrunk, cut, and re-stitched as cold weather hats and holiday stockings. Old jeans and upholstery fabrics become totes and handbags. Vintage cuttings relive as beautiful new blankets. New and vintage beads, buttons, and trimmings complete the picture. Durable construction. Heirloom quality. One-of-a-kind.
