I am obsessed with having my friend Julie of Red Dog Enterprises print my photos onto fabric. This is the latest one she did. It started with a photo I took of my granddaughter, Sammy playing the lead role of Dolly Levi in her high school musical, Hello Dolly. I then manipulated the photo In a watercolor program and had it printed on fabric. I finished quilting and embellishing yesterday.
This is the original photo of her giving her monologue speech!
This is the photo as printed and quilted in the watercolor
I call it. "Ephraim - Let.Me.Go.!......Dolly Levi
This is a detail of the bodice as quilted and embellished with beads for buttons.
This is a detail of the skirt...embellished with beads.
This is a beautiful labor of love.
ReplyDeleteThank you....I loved the photo from the minute I saw it...although.....sometimes working on the face of a loved one can be a bit daunting. I picked out the stitching on the face 3 times!
