Elizabeth DeCroos Lecture Introduction

Elizabeth started sewing as a child, and has always been interested in a variety of needlecrafts. In 2009, she took her young family to South Korea, where she had the opportunity to learn pojagi - a traditional Korean art form that goes back thousands of years. 

Upon returning to Canada, Elizabeth developed techniques for similar patchwork using a sewing machine and materials more readily available in the west. Her batik window hangings look like stained glass in the sun.

She works out of her home workshop -  Epida Studio designing and teaching pojagi window hanging patterns as well as traditional quilting and embroidery.
