Based on a poem I wrote, which turned into a watercolour painting, which turned into a large textile piece, which also turned into a Torn Umbrella Girl doll...and then this....a machine emboidery piece, based on her face!
Think the poem may have had a tad of an effect on me....
Anyway, here she is. I first hand paint-dyed pure cotton, and then used this as a basis on which to stitch. I based her face on the watercolour, (as seen).
I then worked on the piece after machine emboidering it, using hand stitching and beading to finish her.
I added more glittery threads to portray glints of colour in her hair.
I decided at this time not to show her with a hat...I wanted to show off her ginger red pink orange hair.....
