Work I have done in the Past


As I am new to Blogger, I thought I would post some of the work I have done in the past. Those of you that have viewed my work before, I hope you enjoy looking at it again.


This wall hanging is named, "Serengeti Sunset" completed in 2007. It is a original design using a piece of fabric that just shouted at me "Sunset". I suffed extra batting in the ears and head of the grey elephant when it was being appliqued, so as to make it look more 3-D, however, it does not show up in the photo. The black trees I drew free hand, the small elephants, however, were taken from a childs colouring book. I appliqued everything by machine, and it is machine quilted by following the horizontal lines of the colours in the fabric.






Thanks for looking. Patricia

  4. Just beautiful. My MIL would love it. She loves anything with elephants. The whole family lived in Kenya for a few years when dh was little. Then his parents lived in Botswana for a year so they love African type art. You did a great job. The stuffing is brilliant. I also love 3-D type art.
