Most car collectors dream of finding that rare car in a barn, old garage, or abandoned outdoors. This is a project that has eluded me twice before, but now finally conquered.
RARE FIND - 17" X 12"
Hand ice-dyed & rusted cotton sateen, batik cottons, microwave dyed cottons, hand & machine appliquéd, hand embroidered, machine quilted.

ReplyDeleteAbsolutely charming!!!
ReplyDeleteWhen you first started hinting at what this might be, my mind flew to a piece you did so many years ago - the husband bundled up and shivering sitting in the Porsche stored away for the winter. I love this new take.
ReplyDeleteThe rust fabric is perfect for this piece. Some antique car fanatic should love it.
ReplyDeleteKuddos Sheila for remembering that piece......it's one called "Waiting For Spring" is one I'll never sell....and is hanging in the man cave.
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear it has an honored place. One of my favorites of your humorous ones, and I particularly remember being fascinated by the icicles. That piece presented many challenges if I remember correctly, but as always, you figured out how to get to where you wanted to go!
