SUNFLOWER


The husband of my buddy Judy Simmons is a master gardener. This view of one of their many gardens is the inspiration for my newest bead embellished wool piece.


I began by drawing my design on a stabilizer which was then basted to a piece of woolfelt that I had dyed.

Let the beading begin....

......and more beading.....

Almost done.....

I used an easel frame to display this 4 1/2" x 4 1/2" piece.
