                                            " Eden Project"

This is a piece of work entitled 'Eden Project' 
It is worked on painted cotton and then printed with metallic paint applied with a cork bottle top and appliqued with voile and chiffon pieces and embellished with hand embroidered stitch and beads. It was intended for a cushion cover but as to this day is sat waiting to be framed! It was one of those pieces that you don't know when enough is enough and whether you have applied too many beads and embellishments. It is one of my favourite pieces that I have done todate.
