Then my hubby suggested the Silk Road & spices so I then contemplated camels all dressed up in tassels etc. but I couldn't find an image I liked enough to do & I do prefer to work from my own photographs. Yes I do have a camel photo but again not what I wanted to make. So back to the drawing board.
I doodled.
My helper liked this one! I may make this one yet! But I got into the spirit of the season.
Now fabric
It had promise so I went with it. I had to borrow some glitzy fabric. I'm really pleased with the result.
Meet my Three Wise Men carrying Gold, Frankincense & myrrh.
Love your piece, like your fabric choice its stunning
ReplyDeleteHappy New year
Thank you Ellen. It was interesting to make. I made each king separately then pieced the three chunks together & couched on the gold yarn on.
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful, Karrie! And so is your assistant!
ReplyDeleteI love your piece. It's so expressive. And your blingy fabric is exquisite. Nice of Noel to guard your next design!
ReplyDeleteA brilliant take on the theme. Fabric choice and design are perfect. Well done
ReplyDeleteKarrie, I'm always impressed when someone actually makes a sketch first! I do it but not always... Love your interpretation.
