| "Hula Woman" BY Sharon McElroy |
Description:
* 5 feet in diameter.
* Linen backing and hand whipped edges.
* #8 and larger and cut wool, velvet, fleece, and specialty fiber.
* Designed for floor use, so no big loops, etc.
* If you look closely you'll see the sunset is reflected in the waves.
This was done by pulling
tiny strips of sunset fabric color through the
hooked waves.
* Much of the movement is created by using differing shades and
textures.
For instance, there are 14 orange fabrics - plaids,checks,tweeds,
felted sweaters to name a few. The same is true for all other areas
of the rug.
* I like to have at least 5 different fabrics for any one area.
If you can have more different
fabrics that is even better.
* The more types of fabric you use, the greater the appearance
of movement.
