More Stitching


Adding more vine tendrils and bits.
Hand dyed french cotton threads, natural dyed flax, natural dyed painted silk chiffon, on white silk dupioni fabric. Machine and hand stitched.


Working with hand dyed french cotton thread, I'm using a single strand to create a background layer of delicate tendrils.


Working with a couple of colors of hand dyed french cotton thread.  Next I will add more vine bits (like the upper left hand corner) using the same thread only double stranded.


I'm using the ivy bits on my house as my inspiration.


I love how they crisscross defying the laws of design!
