That is the Little Art Theatre lobby in Yellow Springs, Ohio. Most of the work was in my Stitch Gasp! exhibit but this one below is new and is a stitched photograph. Not a new concept, as there are many who do it, such as Maurizio Anzeri (got to see his exhibit at the Baltic in Gateshead-wow), Jessica Wohl, and the fabulous Inge Jacobsen.
Muy Cottage fb has a link to a site that offers a drawing with stitch challenge some of you might be interested in.
Anyway, I wanted to explore the idea of taking a photograph of a vintage embroidery transfer from the 40′s or 50′s, add a bit tie dye using adobe, and then hand embroidery it. The comment is by Rush L, a view that was prevalent BACK in the 50′s, yet is being regurgitated in 2012, arg! I crossed the quite well for obvious reasons. He is the one that coined the term feminazi, a propaganda technique of guilt by association – Reductio ad Hitlerum . Name calling and demonization seems par for the course with feminists being accused as filthy, hairy, smelly hippies and feminazi’s, just to name a few, phew! I have never met one, but then I have never met a pig that fly’s either

Nancy and I continue to find ways to use the felt flowers that the flower power gang made. The one above is a flower made by Chelle Palassis which we attached to a black felt panel and put on the telegraph pole at the corner of Walnut and Dayton Streets. Not sure who made the flower below but I glued it onto a yarn wrapped ball Nancy and I did and love the effect.
