Xenia Taler

Xenia Taler along with partner Steven Koblinsky are the makers of these graphic tiles. From their studio in Toronto, Xenia designs the images and Steven crafts the tiles. 

The owl cushion is just too cute not to show! But not only is it gorgeous, it is also the work of Bedouin women living in the Sinai region of Egypt. Xenia, working with Aid to Artisans has collaborated with these women in Egypt to provide work which sells in a modern market. The positioning of each stitch is determined by counting the threads of the linen cloth.
