Scribbles

It appears that I haven't posted a picture of this piece that was made early in 2015.  Scribbles, Along the Way and All that Glitter were all accepted for the 21st Through the Needle's Eye traveling exhibit which opens in Brevard, North Carolina in about 3 weeks.

 

The title is Scribbles because there are no straight lines.  The lines are all a little wonky.  This piece features a flowering vine that weaves through the grid.  Vine and flowers are made from fine wiggly wire wrapped with thread to a wire core, sewn together to the grid with beads for stamen. 

A water soluble stabilizer was used to construct this piece using machine & hand sewing, netting, sheers, beads, metallic & synthetic threads including Bart & Francis “Metalo Fantsy”. The embroidery is mounted on stretcher bars within the frame.
