Another Gathering of Holes


Watery holes with a different approach.


I commandeered some blanket stitch and ordered it to whirl around a circle.


Only when the stitching was done did I take scissors in hand 
and boldly cut the holes. 


The story of this cloth is slowly forming in my mind.
It is a watery piece with a sandbank strip of rusted cloth
appearing and disappearing beneath holes
and gaps in the watery fabric.

    Oh, i'd say this is much more than a gathering
    of holes... more like the creation of
    a brilliant mind! really.
    what your have stitched is a beautiful cloth sculpture!
    very exciting!

    I really like the way you have captured the movement of the water. The colours are wonderful.

    This is getting more and more interesting with each step you take, or should I say with each stitch you take. Wonderful!

    the top photo reminds me of a long line of billabongs, which of course are always beautiful.

    The movement of the stitched waves across the deep water fabric and then the rusty areas showing through the holes - it's all beautiful.
