DIRTY NEEDLE EMBROIDERY
CODY McELROY
DIRTY NEEDLE STITCH EMBROIDERY & SLEEVIN SEGAL TATTOOS
Sleavin Segal – aka Cody McElroy – is from Reno, Nevada. He has a hint of Hunter S Thompson about him, an anarchic amusement at life and legendary talent slung over his shoulders like a favourite leather jacket, and his work has a distinct vintage vibe, draped in counter-culture cool and the ‘good old-fashioned pursuit of vice’
Alongside his off-the-hook tatt designs, this Route-66 regular is also single-handedly bringing the old-school art of patch embroidery back to Melbourne in the form of Dirty Needle Embroidery – some of he most original stitch work we’ve ever seen. From punk to rock ‘n’ roll; counter culture to haute couture, this is the man to make your custom patched-up jacket, one-of-a-kind wedding suit, shirt embroidered with ‘Daddy was a bank robber’, or outlaw patch.
