Embroidered Diary

embroidery project by Tatiana Zakharova-Goodman; a fabric scroll of embroidered images from daily life; photograph includes text: What does it take to keep a diary if one was to complicate the familiar motion of writing or typing with the slow labour of embroidery?

For two months in 2026, I kept a daily record of my living through embroidery. The resulting diary is a meter-long stretch of fabric littered with partial notes and stitched bits of my everyday living.
