Recently I created four Window Series pieces to go into the mats and frames that once housed older work. That was the "halfway mark". I had four more mats and frames to fill. These are the pieces that I made for the four additional presentations! I'm especially happy with the moon motif. I challenged myself to use only metallic and other "shiny" polyester stretch velvets ... copper, silver, gold, and shiny light and dark blue. It worked!

Who can resist a wee bit 'o glitter and bling? ;-) I do love that moon motif! I've done my own 'moon' pieces, and own two tiny 'moon' embroideries-on-velvet from my friend arlee barr. I guess I have a 'thing' for moons...even though oftentimes I'm long asleep by the time the moon shows up!
