SUPERMOON - first new work 2018

 I don't keep track of the number of pieces I create in a year.....but I will note that this is the first for 2018.  Talk about great timing....with the fabulous show the Supermoon provided for all of us several days ago.  

 However, that was not the inspiration for this piece...just a coincidence. My idea came after seeing a photo my childhood friend Doris posted on her Facebook page.  She takes the most beautiful sunrise/sunset photos I've ever seen.  Though in the end, my piece is really nothing like her photo....but the fabric choice was based on her picture!
Ice-dyed silk noil, stabilized with lightweight non-fusible interfacing, sheer over cotton - hand appliqued moon.
Process of trees being appliqued.....
SUPERMOON  20.5" x 18"
Ice-dyed silk noil, cotton and Ultra-suede hand appliqued, machine quilted.

    Talk about letting the fabric do a lot of the work for you - this turned out great. And I love the addition of that reddish owl - a true surprise.
