Female Silhouette Heart Art Stitching Challenges

Day 270 #ayearinstitches 
Stitching on this blue batik heart so it remains visible 

and yet allows the yellow silhouette 

to keep the focus is a bit challenging. 

Today, I added Cross Stitch (left), Chain Stitch (right) 

and a Straight Stitch Circle (center).

Female Silhouette on Quilted Heart Art

#ayearinstitches creations continue and this Quilted Heart Art is complete.

It has subtle extensive hand embroidery stitching

on an improvisational stitched heart and features

a navy blue Chain Stitch embroidered female silhouette.

Re-purposing specialty hand dyed fabric remnants

 is my favorite method of creating

Mounted on a 10 inch X 10 inch black painted wood panel

 and ready to hang.

"Morning Song" SOLD

Living in the Western NC mountains and a large bedroom window 

offers me  this peaceful morning scene 

as the cheerful birds begin the day with song. 

A blueberry twig from our woods was used for the hand embroidered design 

over the morning sun in this collage of rust dyed, 

 hand dyed, and cotton fabrics. 

2 appliqued birds have hand embroidered legs and big stitch embroidery 

enhances the machine quilting.

2 additions birds make a special label on the back of the Wall Quilt. 

Approximately 30  inches X 21 inches. 

Thank you Twigs & Leaves Gallery in Waynesville, NC

for carrying my Quilted Fiber Art.
