FRIDAY PHOTO | Meet "The Lone Bird"

"The Lone Bird". Copyright © Angela Heath

Lately, I've been doing a lot of digital photo collaging and have just finished this image called "The Lone Bird". This image has a similar theme as the Lone Owl metaphor for a while. To me this is a subtle, the connotation is taking the road less traveled. 

Enjoy!

FRIDAY PHOTO | Meet INTO THE LIGHT

© FabricWorks Studio

Into the Light is my "peace be still" quilted tapestry. It reminds me of the grounds in the back of my house at daybreak. It's precisely the time when the mist of nighttime wears off of the trees and the sunlight starts peering through the bush. Every time I view it, it puts life into perspective for me. My love of nature and of the ongoing rhythm and calm of our beautiful planet is celebrated in this piece.

FRIDAY PHOTO | MEET BOHEMIA BLUE

FRIDAY PHOTO | Meet Traces of Red

Meet Traces of Red. 

This little piece (12" by 12") is a quilted fabric art made of red satin, red cotton and red Dupioni silk fabric. The pieces of fabric were randomly torn, fused onto a piece of Pellon interfacing and then attached to a piece of muslin. The satin stitching in gold metallic and red cotton threads adds depth and outline to the piece. 

The finished piece was mounted to a black matboard and framed. This piece was sold at an auction.         

FRIDAY PHOTO | SEEING BROWN

I love brown...chocolate brown or espresso (a bit darker) are my favorites. Most of my fabric projects are contemporary pieces so the brown and its tones actually fit right in.  If you think about it, brown goes with just about everything! 

FRIDAY PHOTO | Japanese Kimono Fabric

In my fabric closet, I have this lovely piece of fabric is a yard of vintage hand-dyed indigo cotton that was used as an kimono obi. A kimono is a traditional T-shaped garment worn by Japanese people. The word kimono in Japanese translates to "thing to wear" – "ki" (wear) and "mono" (thing). The garment is full length and falls below the ankles. It crosses the body from left to right and is held in place by a sash or "obi".

I am greatly inspired by fabrics from previous eras and also by fabrics from different cultures. Like many other pieces of ethnic fabric, this piece of fabric holds the culture of another land and thus is a learning experience.

FRIDAY PHOTO | Great Idea for Organizing My Fabric Closet

I just reorganized the fabric in my studio closet this past summer. Check out the white Sterilite baskets. The holes in the side allow the fabric to breathe. The size is perfect for the shelving in the closet. Finally, the price for each of the baskets is quite reasonable. I got a 6-pack of the Sterilite baskets for roughly $25.
