but I have to confess I made a mistake, the paper I used for the draft was in cm and before sewing I forgot to enlarge the motiv, so now it's only 10,75" square
stupid blond me, grrrr
shall I add something or can I leave it like this?

still life photography of mostly textile
This and the next two are photos that I put in an exhibition in my home town---all photography, flat lay- mostly textiles scrunched together to look like flowing skirts--I guess you could call it mixed media although the finished product is a pure photograph, enhanced with photoshop----Lynne
The challenge:
This week we’re going to look for inspiration in textiles. To be clear, I am using a very broad definition of textiles to include: fabric, yarn, thread and/or anything made with those three elements.
My process:
I had a hard time with this challenge theme because I had too many choices and couldn't decide what I wanted to shoot. An old, ragged quilt that I remember from my childhood? Any number of pieces of handiwork from indigenous tribes in Vietnam, Thailand or the Philippines? A more modern quilt made from my own fabric design? An abstract of a super snuggly fleece blanket that I love wrapping myself up in? A beautiful knitted-lace shawl gifted from a friend? The pile of fabric on my studio table for making face masks?
I hemmed (no pun intended) and I hawed and finally last night I decided to take a photo of the stacks of folded fabric in my quilting stash. And then I played around making kaleidoscopes from those images. I had a lot of fun with it, but then I didn't post last night because I didn't feel like I had put enough effort into it. (I know, I know... I'm still working on letting go of the belief that I have to work hard at something for it to have any value.)
But when I pulled up the image just now it popped out at me, so I was inspired to post it.
Embroidered textiles like this are now being sold in many shops and markets in Oaxaca and Chiapas Mexico. The fabric is handwoven and then embroidered by machine. Though most buyers probably believe these cloths were made in Mexico, they are produced in neighboring Guatemala.

They is green machines everywhere in the Big Textile Factory. My brain overloaded on what to photograph
I bought this woven belt last year but have no idea where it was made. It looks Latin American to me. If anyone does know where this was made, please let me know. Many thanks
