Process

The Process
My process to make a mushroom, wildflower or butterfly is to draw it out on felt or mesh. If needed I use wire to help it hold shape and be posable. I choose colors according to reference photos and begin stitching.

For mushrooms, when the top and bottom of a fiber art mushroom is complete I join them together, sometimes adding a stem or ring depending on the mushroom.   I will create the subjects and install them on a base of embroidered moss,  leaves or appropriate  supporting materials in a presentation style that will best showcase them.  

I study the subjects habitat and strive to replicate nature as accurately as possible when creating the sculpture.  

Making a wildflower is a little different in that most of the time I'm only joining them at the stem. Each petal or leaf must be stitched very carefully so that all sides are viewable.

2/2022 The process of a new sculpture for me, a Luna Moth. I've seen several over the years in spite of them being nocturnal and only living for one week after becoming a moth. They have no mouth or digestive system and reproduce in that one week of life as a moth.
