I've been wanting to experiment with making a fabric picture for a while now and when the urge to be creative came over me last night this is what I did.
The picture is made entirely from curtain fabric samples. I didn't have a pattern for any of the shapes. I cut everything freehand and basically made up the design as I went along. I love the way this piece of work isn't too precious, it's very rustic with threads and fraying all on display.
Here is a closer look at the owl.
I love the ruffles on his chest.
This is my first attempt at a fabric picture and I'm fairly happy with the result. I was having so much fun I stayed up until 1.30 this morning to finish it. I might be having a Nana nap or two today. Zzzzzzzzz.
Hello Anne,
ReplyDeleteNice to meet you. Thanks for dropping by and leaving a comment. It's how we get to know eachother isn't it?
I think you've done very well with your first fabric picture. Are you going to frame it?
Hi Helsie,
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting. I don't know what to do with the picture as I made it just for fun. I get sooo inspired from all the lovely people in blog land, an idea pops into my head and off I go.
I'm working on another which is nearly finished and will post soon. Don't know what to do with that either. :-)
Anne
