Migrating Pelican

This my current project.  The pelicans were migrating and at Lake Manawa in Council Bluffs, Iowa this spring.  I  took a lot of pictures and captured this guy getting ready to make a landing.  Background is painted on cotton fabric.  The Pelican will be appliqued on top.  It measures approxiamately 24" by 36" at the moment.  Bird is ready to be sewn on followed by thread work on the background, then quilting.

Fabric Art Butterfly

It's been quite awhile since I posted anything, but I have been very busy with projects that I just forgot.


Newest fabric art piece.  Red Admiral Butterfly on Cherry Blossoms.  The stamens of the flowers are satin rat tail ribbon.  The pollen is beads.  The piece measures approx.  24" by 36.
