Embroidery: A Passage of Time


A Passage of Time 


        This is my original embroidery style design. I did this one completely from scratch without a previous sketch. I made up each element as I went along. This was once a pillow, but you couldn't see the border so I made it into a wallhanging. This one took the longest to make and is about 2 feet square. I started in 1998 and finished in 2001. There is a little stick person element in the middle circle of the design that symbolizes when I was pregnant with my now 12 yr old son Brendan. This was my first time putting my design on fabric and of course I had to make it the biggest!
