Weekly beauty: Jan Laurie stoles

Friday, February 11, 2011

Jan Laurie is a fabric artist who makes clergy stoles that I think are stunning. I love this type of fabric art that involves a variety of materials: she uses stitching, stamps, tulle, ribbon, metallic thread, and all sorts of loveliness.








These stoles have, however, made an appearance on the Bad Vestments blog, so there's no accounting for taste. (I did notice that no one could muster anything too insulting in the comments there, compared to some of the enthusiastic trash-talk elsewhere on that site.)

Anyway, you can decide for yourself. Images are from Jan Laurie's website, where there are more close-up shots available.

I wonder why they put these on their site (bad vestments that is)...they would look lovely on you! I could see how if they were chausable they might be a bit much, but they are nothing like this one: http://badvestments.blogspot.com/2010/10/vestment-or-star-trek-costume.html
