Jasmine is an elegant embroidery on linen depicting branches of jasmine in bloom. Delicately embroidered stitches are joined by felt appliques, which give the blossom a physical presence the needle alone could not, and lend the cloth its precious character. It is a fabric for close quarters, a bedhead, cushions, a favourite chair, where the appliques can be seen and touched, and where the quiet botanical subject earns its keep daily.
