The Year Of The Feather

Year of the Snake? Pish tosh! I'm calling it - it's Year of The Feather!



Cuz I never seem to stop making them!




So, I started with my pattern...



...and then fused some fabrics in gold and white.



And then I cut out a small portion of the wing pattern in my chosen fabric. 


This little curlicule thing is the smallest part of the wing - the whole thing is about 17 inches long across it's widest part.  That's a lotta feathers. 

Yeesh. ;)

  2. WOW. I love it that you are so generous, showing some of the evolution of your work. I enjoyed reading how you get a complete picture in your head. I think since I read that, I can look back on projects I designed and see which ones sprang from moments like that. Those moments are so delicious it makes using someone else's design kind of like driving a bus. Same stops every day, only a little difference here an there in the fares (or fabrics!)
