Textile Art

 



Ciao dearhearts!

I have just hfinished my two textile pieces that I have been hand stitching 🧵 

These textiles are a mirror for the climate today,

for everything that has been going on..


The Beauty That Remains

Is the piece above and

Crossroads 

Below…

Both pieces are mixed media and are completely 

hand stitched and framed in black wood frames and 

glass..






If you are interested in them please go to

my 

Textile Gallerie

Art Work Failure

 



Ciao gentle readers


This has been a very tough month for me..

Don and I have been planning our trip to 

Europe in October..

it is a month long trip and there is much to consider.. beyond the

flights, trains and travel detail..

so we had our covid boosters.. and responded as I usually do

with a reaction... 

but later I had an intense reaction.

if you are thinking of having the Moderna vaccine,

google moderna Covid 19 vaccine side effects 

just an FYI

I have had at least 5 other boosters and none affected me

as this one..



left over bits from my Textile piece..


But the other difficult part of this month is that

I had a failure that I wanted to share.. I don't usually have failures

but this one was spectacular..

I was working on the textile piece and as I was attaching it to

the board to secure it, the papers crumpled as

I pulled it back to edge it..


so above you see the two pieces that I salvaged..

and my intention is to make another work 

using those elements.

its devastating to loose all that time and energy..

but

I know now what 

WON'T WORK!!


C4N!!

New Textile Art

 




so dear viewers..

I am in the studio, stitching...

it is so very calming..







and peaceful... and I don't know about you,
but I need peaceful..
calming,
and serene....





each stitch transports me to a sacred place..
where I feel at home and secure...




Tea dyed lace and fabric and old papers..



I am making a mixed media textile art piece... and my plan is to mount them on cradled 
boards..





I will be mixing whatever appeals to me to create these new pieces..
and it will be a whole collection..

a new category and gallerie for me..



I dyed the fabric and the lace and since the fabric was a bit short.. I decided to
add to the length..

I adore the wrinkles and subtle marks...
and yes I am using two needles.. don't you do that too?





We will be taking a few days off..

and I will take my stitching with me..

and a few books of course!!


We have needed a break...

thanks as always for stopping by the 

Lily Cottage..

we so appreciate each one of you!


Ciao, Ciao!!
