Giraffe Heads


Last summer I started using small scraps of old doilies, lace and embroidered bits from vintage textiles, and began sewing them together to create new works, such as the one shown above. For lack of a better name I simply call them "Reconstructed Doilies".


The fun part of this process was incorporating all the little motifs I could find, like the bird in the top photo...

and little embroidered flowers...

... and some blue giraffe heads!
