"The Road Chosen"
16" x 23"
Detail: This small wall hanging was an exploration in creating a natural backdrop with figures in the forground. The parent and child are based on a photograph I took. I copied the photo onto water soluble fabric and then stitched the forms on to white cotton.
Detail: The landscape was created using hand dyed fabrics with raw edge applique. The clouds were highlighted with fabric paint.
Detail: I created the road with a commercial fabric I loved. I used reference photos to create the winding road shape. When all the fabrics were in place, I free motion quilted the entire piece, hoping the different lines would suggest landscape both near and far.
