Fragile

I finished this new fiber piece called "Fragile." Many of the fabrics are reclaimed--some vintage linens, some almost rags, but I love the worn history each of them brings. They are held together only with lines of stitching, no backing, to show off their delicate nature.




I love the fringe on the bottom made of chains of funky crochet mixed with torn and knotted organza:
