Birds and dyed cheesecloth
As I explore textures and patterns in my latest art piece, I am intrigued by the semi-transparency of the dyed cheesecloth and how it ripples across the sky circles. I like the second line of stitching, the heavy, braided line. Difficult thread to work with but worth the trouble. The result is rich and dramatic. 
Here’s a close-up of the stitching over the top of the sky. 
I am very pleased thus far and will continue to explore the aesthetics of texture through thread.
