Early Evening


Today I finished this small fabric applique entitled 'Early Evening". I hand appliqued some silky printed sheers I've had for years, and hand beaded and embroidered the flowers. The matted size is 8"x 10".
It was nice to get back to fabric after a fairly long stint of working with cut paper lately.
Today was a beautiful day here in Massachusetts and I was so happy to see the first signs of buds on the trees! Leaves will be bursting out soon and they will be a welcome sight after a long winter!
