Fabric Collages

Very much inspired by the fabric wall art i had in my room as a little little girl during the seventies. I remember it vividly. It wasn't padded like the ones i made, it was a heavy off white/yellow fabric with loops and a stick on top to hang. It was lovely decorated with scraps of fabric shaped as a sun and two playing kids. I wonder where it's gone.

The one i like the most is the one on the right, and that's double good since that was the last i made (always learn and get better each step you take, love your last work) and it's good since that one i want to give to my girl who is pregnant right now. It might look cute in the nursery. (i'm guessing she currently has better things to do and other things on her mind than to read my blog, hoping it stays a surprise) The little one might even play with it. Don't know what she could do with it, but there are no rough parts or parts that can come off, everything is stitched very securely. And best thing is the soft back, done in supersoft white flannel. Still my original purpose for them wasn't to end up as a baby drooling pad but to be put on the wall. Baby's first piece of art. ;)
