Sweetie's on post for the birds setting up housekeeping in the hedges. I've decided to name this one "RĂªver" - french for dreaming.
I've been falling asleep listening to people speaking french in foreign films which leads to dreaming in french and I wake up wondering who and where I am.
It's perched on top a pile of white fabrics all destined for the dyepots at some point in the future. I'm headed to EB's studio this weekend for some fiber r&r - someone else's workspace is always a treat and a challenge for me. Some of these pieces will come along and be transformed.
I chose the bits of cloth for this piece as much for their texture and character as the colors - everything is very weavy and soft, easy to stitch.
Appropriately, I'm busy building a small army of french knots wandering in the streets and alleys.
Each one says "You Are Here" but not in red.

breathtaking simplicity and skill
I love this piece and the way the white makes everything so fresh and springy.
It's so beautiful. I love all those vibrant colours against that lovely crisp white background.
that is so pretty!
It looks so pretty! And I love the "you are here" knots. Is it still going to be a cushion/pillow? I can't wait!
