Shibori







Here are the magic workings of Shibori!
Shibori is the art of dying fabric like Japanese artisans.
I enjoyed folding and clamping the fabric to get this patterned look.
It was then dyed and/or discharged.

Xochiquetzal Finish!



She's finally finished!
Xochiquetzal, the goddess of women and craft.
Completed.

Embroidered, beaded, and finished off with a gold satin border.
Big thanks to Emily Crowley for helping me stretch it!
