Field of Poppies

Field of Poppies

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.

    Your blouse is beautiful. I'd also love some information on the technique you used. How about an article for Threads?

    Your design is so creative. I'm so envious. It must give you a great deal of satisfaction to produce work like that.

    So you are as productive over here as you are on BurdaStyle :) Why am I not surprised? I have been meaning to tell you how much I love what you do. 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 :)
