'SUMMER OF MY CONTENT'
It's now ready for framing! The background is a hand stitched patchwork of rust dyed fabric. Pieces of commercial printed fabric were added and embellished with embroidery and raw edge applique. The lace centrepiece is also hand dyed
'SUMMER OF MY CONTENT' - detail
I went out this afternoon to get a single skein of embroidery floss to match something else I'm working on... Look what I came back with! Fabrics to die for with luscious colours and designs. I rarely use large quantities of commercial fabrics so these will turn up in much smaller portions cut or torn down...
Raw Materials for Future Works!
I generally work on several pieces at once... (saves boredom!) with the occasional push to get something finished for an exhibition.
This piece from my TREE OF LIFE series is nearing completion. It was started quite some time ago....!
'TREE OF LIFE: THE KISSING TREE'
