Some postcards, plus





Some postcards of my fiber group monthly challenge: 2 for the theme "wings," and one for the theme "green/Spring."

The image of the wall hanging is entitled Rustic Palm. I used some of my discharged fabric. I added the pieced strips and crochet cords after being totally inspired by a fellow fiber artist, Billie McCray. This piece along others are hanging in a local Bank Show. The bank has an incredible gallery made available to us artists. They throw a grand opening as well. First Coast Community Bank of Fernandina Beach, FL.

Postcard Challenge













One of my fiber artist groups issued a postcard of the month challenge. January was "fruit." So here's mine - I just had to do two. One I used a needle felted sample along with some leftover pear appliques. I liked the result but felt I cheated some. So, I nature printed a pear half for the next one. Had to print several pear halves - had to figure out how much paint to use. The muted background was part of a coffee dyeing playday. The result I liked too - very subdued,to say the least.
