This piece is titled "Allison" and is based off of my painting with the same title. Allison has a Carolina wren head with a teenager body and is freehand machine stitched on organza and appliqué on cotton fabric. The popular tulip seedpod is freehand machine stitched on felt and appliquéd and reinforced stitched , along with the figures onto cotton fabric.
This final piece is stretched on a wooden painting panel and then framed with a pine wood. The dimensions of this framed work is 9.5" X 9.5" X 2"
The frame is thick enough that the piece can stand on its own if you wanted to display it on a mantel or shelf.
A metal D-ring is screwed into the back for ready hanging.
