A "Mini Frame of Mind"

The Wilson Family framer built several small 8" frames for me to use, depending on my frame of mind. (No pun intended)

Well this week seems to be a mini week.  I have several small and medium pieces that I was not necessarily happy with, but liked some part of each of them very much.

So I tore the pieces apart, cut out that part of the piece that I like and re-framed and mounted the pieces on the 8"frames.  I've kept the original labels, but these pieces now fall into the mini fabric art category and I've created a gallery just for them.  

This piece is entitled "Celtic Bog"

Midnight in the Bayou and Fire and Ice - Cardinals in Winter

I have added two more pictures of my fabric art to the "Art Galley".  I hope you enjoy them.

I have to say that the picture of "Midnight in the Bayou" does not do it justice, but I have tried to bring out the colours as best I could.  This is one of those things that must be seen to appreciate it.

Fire and Ice was the first large piece that I worked with, and it was a challenge.  It took about 25 hours to sew on all of the beads.

Winter Scenes

This piece of art is the one that I used for the header on my blog. Entitled January Morning ll, it is my favourite small piece.   

I added the "ll" to it, because I made it once and them reconstructed it again, to add an eagle. I found this fabric after I had completed the piece.   

To me, this piece represents a picture of a perfect winter's day.
