Today I'm posting a collection of oldies.
The above is a cover on a book, it is fabric which has been hand painted then hand embroidered. Below is a sample I did for C&G embroidery - an experimental piece manipulating fabric. { I don't think the photo does it any favours}

The bird picture was done on a scraper board [scratch art] using a metal tool.
Do you ever sleep Lin, I can't imagine you have time to with all your wonderful projects*!*
ReplyDeleteI just love old embroideries, and particularly love the manipulated fabric...I can see water trickling and washing through a rocky ledge...one that has layers which have evolved over hundreds of years. Does that sound as though I have a weird imagination. This would be wonderful in the colours of the australian desert gorges
ReplyDeletegreat work
wow wonderful.THank u
ReplyDeleteThanks for your lovely comments ladies. I'm glad you told me what you could 'see' in the manipulated piece shirley, it was meant to be rocks etc but now I can see the water too, you've brought it back to life for me, I'd forgotten what it was all about.
