These larger pieces are where play meets intention—still experimental, but with more room to breathe. Each 5×7 work carries the same spirit of exploration as the smaller studies, but with deeper layering, more complex stitching, and the freedom to let an idea fully unfold. Every piece is an original mixed media creation, stitched, painted, and assembled by hand.
Please note: colors may vary slightly due to lighting, photography, and individual monitor settings. Each piece is represented as accurately as possible.

Techniques/Materials: Machine-stitched layered background; vintage satin fabric mounted on Timtex; painted kitchen tile; metal charms.

A portrait wrapped in fragments of persistence. The antique photograph sits amid circles, lines, and found symbols—rings, ribbons, and a charm that declares, “Where there’s a will there’s a way.” The word “fox” dangles below, sly and knowing. It’s a meditation on endurance, wit, and quiet rebellion.
Techniques/Materials: Machine-stitched batik background; textured ribbons; metal charms; antique photograph printed on fabric and altered with paint.

A quiet hum of repetition—letters, lace, and a single metal bee caught mid-thought. The doilies shift between decay and bloom, their edges blushing with painted color. The trio of copper “Z” charms drifts downward like a gentle surrender to sleep.
