A photograph or postcard is popular souvenirs to take with us after visiting a foreign country. But one Singaporean woman has designed a novel way to remember places she has visited throughout the world - by creating stunning¹ canvases using a needle and thread.

从一个陌生国度旅行归来，带回一张照片或明信片作纪念品是司空见惯的事。然而一位新加坡女子环游世界后却为自己设计了一种别出心裁的纪念方式——用针和线创作出令人叹为观止的画作。

Teresa Lim stitches beautiful patterns of landscapes she encounters on her travels, giving her as much time as possible to savour the differing landscapes she views.

The 24-year-old has a series of embroidery² reflecting landmarks³ around the globe including Charles Bridge in Prague, Big Ben in London and the Serpentine⁴ Falls in Perth.

Her work has been showcased in fashion shows in Singapore, Bangkok, Hong Kong and Tokyo, with the Teresa keen to blur⁵ the lines between being an illustrator and textile designer.

The talented Lim has labelled her unique work Sew Wanderlust, as she introduces a different approach to digital photo albums and photobooks.

As her favourite colour is green, she takes advantage of seeing this on her travels, to construct the wonderful memories to treasure forever.

Teresa graduated from Lasalle College of the Arts in Singapore with a First Class (BA Hons) in Fashion Design and Textiles.

The college has a partnership⁶ with Goldsmiths, University of London.

Teresa is currently working on another project called the 'Sad Girls Club' which depict⁷ upset and crying girls as stitchings, although it is unknown whether these are taken from everyday scenes.
