Close up of the skirt
The skirt for Fox Tales has reverse appliqué cut work. Seed beads and felt circles woven in and out of the circles. The Vixen....mama fox.... sits in the amid felt blossoms, leaves and tree branches.
Cat Tails is one of my favorite creations. I love a play on words and the possibilities they present. The skirt has three usages of the word Cat Tails......the cat has a tail.....cat tails grow in marshy areas.....and there is a cat reading a tale about a cat. The calico cat on the left is reading a pop up book called Puss in Boots. Visible and very obvious hand stitches are a common theme in my fabric figures. There is no mistaking the touch of the artists hand upon the art work. I also love to add a playful touch to my work. The gray and white kitty is trying to play with the dangling little fabric do-dad in the dolls hand.
