"Patchwork Patty" Canvas Prints

About the Work

Part of The Old Maids series, Patchwork Patty offers a playful, tongue-in-cheek reimagining of the classic homemaker and sewing-queen archetype. A retro pin-up curtsies coyly in her hand-sewn dress, standing in a cozy living room overflowing with spools of thread, fabric stacks, quilted patterns, and a lovingly worn vintage sewing machine. Every corner bursts with color and handiwork, turning her domestic world into a stage set of stitched beauty and exaggerated nostalgia.

Overhead, the sky breaks open as oversized sewing needles, looping thread, and an enormous sewing machine drift into the scene, blurring whimsy with absurdity. Patchwork Patty celebrates creativity while gently satirizing the trad-wife ideal—inviting viewers to consider how women have long been stitched into roles, yet continue to reweave those expectations with humor, autonomy, and flair.
