Zenful Textures...

So I went in a completely different direction for the art quiltlet I showed you Tuesday and went with an Asian theme...


I wanted it to be all about soothing textures...



rustic surfaces...




and rich luster...


all inspired by nature...

I call it Zenful Textures I... The first in a series...

It is constructed in earth tones of several layers of luxurious tapestry, natural cotton batting, botanical paper, nubby burlap and printed muslin; and hand sewn together with hemp and thread. I added silky yarn, leaves, feathers, coins and pearls. Then suspended it all from a cherished piece of driftwood with suede lashing.
