Food For Thought
“I said to myself, I have things in my head that are not like what anyone has taught me — shapes and ideas so near to me — so natural to my way of being and thinking that it hasn’t occurred to me to put them down. I decided to start anew, to strip away what I had been taught.”
- Georgia O’Keeffe

We Made This:
Fabric Flower
Hand Sculpted Plaid Fabric Flower
by Charlotte Self
This is a beautiful hand pieced fabric rose pin. Made from various fabrics, the outer layer is a vintage woven cotton, textured plaid upholstery fabric, the second layer is a cotton plaid quilting fabric, the third layer is vintage pink taffeta, and the center is a green satin, beaded by hand with a faux pearl, and seed beads. Petals are individually stitched to the backing, and the backing, made from a vintage cotton damask, is stitched in place also(no glue-ever!). This beauty can be worn on a jacket, sweater, purse, hat, or attached to a hair clip to wear in your hair.
