Hoop Art
The orange color on this eggplant background is a cotton lame, it has iridescent gold threads in the weave lending a beautiful sheen to this quilted fiber art piece framed in a fabric wrapped embroidery hoop.
The technique used to make this is called reverse applique, which means the shapes are cut out of the black fabric and the patterned fabric is placed behind it. A layer of batting is put behind it all and then machine stitched around all the shapes with the beautiful sheen of rayon embroidery thread.
