The poppies are alpaca fibers nuno felted onto olive green crinkled silk organza.
I used embroidery thread to sew over the poppies in free motion.

In my work on the fabric wiki, I am constantly looking for interesting examples of the uses of different fabrics, and your work constantly jumps to the front of the line as a viewing choice. You've worked with so many different fabrics and styles, and all of them oh so beautiful! I am an unconditional fan :)
