Mellow Fruitfulness
Mellow Fruitfulness, 1999
143 x 94 cm/
56.5 x 37 in
This piece is now in a private collection in London.
The brilliant colours of this wallhanging
attempt to convey the glory of Autumn. The beautiful burnt-orange silk and metallic
fabric used for the borders and the sashing was perfect for this piece and, once quilted,
caught the light beautifully. I covered large areas of the hanging with
free-hand machine-embroidery and worked the hand embroidery and the beading over it,
building up the textures.
