My work table was piled high with chenille-making debris throughout August as I completed a piece to submit for a "call for entry".
It started with a scribble that I kept pinned up at eye level when I was sewing.
To begin yet another log-themed piece I stacked up my collection of natural colored fabrics. As I did more sewing I got more bold and added pinks, oranges, purple and greens to broaden the palette. I would have used more outrageous colors but I didn't have time to make two pieces, one for this world and one for Susan's parallel universe. It came together over the month and I got it photograped and mailed to meet the entry deadline, now we wait to hear it's status. You may see it here, and only here in it's 27" x 36" glory.
I may have to start my own exhibition in order to find the perfect category for my hybrid work...

More bark! It looks great -- and I would love to see one in wild colors.
So the question is now -- are you going to make chenille termites to go along with your chenille bark?
