Homesick Series (Heimweh Serien)

Missing Mangoes

I am creating a series of designs for textile art. I called it “Heimweh” (Homesick). Living in Berlin, I have been missing a lot of food back in the Philippines. I am especially missing the fruits and vegetables. It will feature lots of stitches. I will still have to put colors into it.
I think this will feature crewel stitches using cotton floss in bright and pastel colors.

Homesick Series: Missing Pineapples

The second of my series Heimweh (Homesick). Pineapples.
I am thinking of doing this whole panel in pulled work using colored threads with colored lining that shows through the pulled holes.
