This is part of a series of small works
in which my process is very much like doodling with fabric,
i.e. the design was developed spontaneously, working directly
on the background with bits of fabric and thread. The
dark background fabric was hand painted with fiber reactive
dye. Small scraps of hand-dyed fabric, left over from
other projects, were laid on the background and stitched
with various colors of thread. The embroidered composition
was surrounded with a lighter colored hand-painted border.
The entire composition was quilted in a freeform design.
