Click here or on the link below to see the latest in my ShapeShifters range. These are called “Autumn Forest” and “Winter Forest”. I hadn’t planned a series, but you can guess what’s coming next…
Autumn & Winter Forest – new in ShapeShifters Range
Tricky names for new line
See my latest range and the story behind the vague names I’ve given the first stitched works: “ShapeShifters“
Colourful and increasingly abstract
See my latest range of fibre artworks, Vivid Forest. In October, I posted about a New range evolving – this is it.
New range evolving
Two completed so far, and a couple more under way… Vivid Forest:
Ghost trees!
In the past month, I’ve stitched four new fibre artworks entitled “Memories of Blue”, in my new Ghost Trees range. The two most recent aren’t yet framed.
You can see the completed ones and the works in progress here.
Terracotta and Blue Village
I’m happy to have finished and framed this latest in my growing “Village” series, although there are more Silver Birch Trees in progress, too. This is my first cross stitched village on tapestry canvas; previous ones were more effective, I think, for being outlines on fabric. (One day I might try a similar, but brighter, village scene, when current work’s complete.)
Anyway, here it is and I hope you like it; stitching detail, then framed.
Crossover Stitch
Another fibre artwork that could fit into a couple of categories. Have a look on my “Luscious Lavender” page for my latest creation.
Pink meadow with birches – work in progress
Because someone admired another stitched work that had already been sold in a local gallery, I set out to create something similar. It’s not quite finished, but you might like to see this work in progress. Should it be included in my Silver Birch Forest series?
I just need to finish the sky, and decide how to complete the landscape: bright flowers or serene grass? We’ll both have to wait and see…
Stitching on fabric – a new technique
Stitching on fabric rather than tapestry canvas is a whole new experience for me, and I’m enjoying the speed at which I can complete a work: hours rather than weeks!
Here’s my most recent stitching work, which I’m pretty pleased with as it’s different from anything I’ve done before. Although working cross stitch and long stitch on tapestry canvas will probably remain my favourite way of making fibre art, it’s good to have new tools in my skill set.
See my other recent stitching on canvas (I’m still reluctant to claim ’embroidery’ as I don’t think I have the skills yet) here.
