Using tailor’s chalk (wipes off with water if you don’t forget and iron on it first -I’m an expert on this point), I drew the large cellular shapes from the drawing onto the background cloth making lots of adjustments along the way. For example, I felt there needed to be an entry space at the bottom between the large shapes. The story in my head about this series involves small organic stuff moving through a space and being transformed in some way. So I wanted it to be flowing up from below.
I decided to use a rust/russet/ gold variegated yarn I’d bought years ago to define the outer part of the translucent area of each shape. I couched the yarn down stitching with a rust colored thread.
