Interview with Polly Leonard of Selvedge Magazine

I had the amazing opportunity a few weeks ago to interview Editor in Chief, Polly Leonard, of Selvedge Magazine for Handful of Salt.

I walked away from the phone interview full of ideas about the bigger picture of craft in the art world. Polly is one of those people who is able to stand back and see the big picture in the world of textiles.

A very inspiring person to talk to! And the latest copy of the magazine just arrived in my mailbox last week. Head on over to Handful of Salt to read the full interview.

  2. I didn't know 'Selvedge', I ordered a back copy out of curiosity.
    When I will be visiting my daughter in London I will certainly visit the shop as well.
    Thank you for this post,you are really opening my eyes...in many ways!

  5. Blandina, you will love Selvedge and lucky you that you can see the store in person. Claire, I know it is expensive. I bet your local library might carry a copy, if not, you should try requesting it.

  7. What a wonderful interview, Kathryn. Throughly enjoyable. When I read an issue of Selvedge I feel like I want to crawl inside the pages and roll around in them... they are that enticing! Such a beautiful treat for the senses. (And I also must read it with a pen and paper beside me... so many things to note and investigate further.)
