School of Fish


This school of fishes are fabric postcards that I took to the Elverhoj Museum to sell in the boutique there. The fabric backgrounds were painted with thickened dyes on cotton sateen, then screenprinted with seaweed and fish. The fish were machine quilted and embellished with rhinestone eyes and studs in various places. Tonight is the big Christmas celebration at the Elverhoj - I hope some of the revelers want to give these little guys a good home!

Hi Lora!
Happy New Year to you too! Somehow I've lost touch with your blog, but have just subscribed, so it should no longer be a problem! WooHoo!
Your fish are so very cool. I hope they went over well!
