Artist's Comments

What started out as an experiment with felting and using a washing machine turned out to be a wonderful canvas to embroider on...

WOW!! I absolutely adore this. It is a really effective texture? How did it come about? And hand embroidered?

It's machine embroidered, but it's done freehand, with a darning foot so I could go around the bits that weren't raised and accent them.

I didn't have a clue what it was going to turn out like, I just thought I'd do something interesting with the felting once I'd done it. It's actually got fabric felted to the other side, which is why it's crumpled up like that because of the shrinkage of the wool from the washing machine.
