Autumn Leaves

Autumn Twilight arrived.

September Night followed.

 A while ago I made two pieces of felt with a view to making smaller works. I forgot to photograph the 'plain felt'. I made pre-felts and cut them into shapes, laying them down on a background and wet felting again. They are around 8 inches square.

I made vague leafy shapes and machine stitched them, adding details by hand later. It took me ages to do the one above.

Suddenly I needed two pieces to enter for an open exhibition, so decided to finish the other one off..which I did in a day!

 That presents a problem...I haven't got to know it yet..I didn't want to let it go! It turned out better than the first one I think. I must be Bloomsbury Inspired!

Just for a change I thought I'd put them in frames. They are a bit squashed but more sellable.

I still don't really like textiles behind glass though.

 More difficult to photograph and to look at.

The frames ar about a foot square.

Did you spot the mistake?

Or should I say , 'Indecision?' Autumn Twilight ...which way up?

In the first picture its got the grey leaf at the top right.

I liked it better in the frame with the leaf at the bottom.
