Latest Fibre Art

Finally had a chance to try out an idea that I had in mind - combing art quilting and needle felting with 3 dimensional artwork.

I started with a photo of crocuses I took this spring with Leah. I printed a large black and white copy of the photo and highlighted with black marker the flowers I wanted included in the design. Then I enlarged that part of the photo. This became the flower appliqué pattern.

I pieced together a background and appliquéd on four crocuses with fabric. The remaining crocuses I made by needle felting 3 dimensional crocuses. I think it is unique. What do you think?

Oops, I guess I need to rotate this one, but am technologically challenged.  Sorry.


Okay, right side up.
