When I was young, I learned to sew from my Mother who was an excellent seamstress! Working with fabric has always fascinated me, sewing bits and pieces together, a puzzle much like my collage work. I have been creating Batik wall and window hangings along with hand painted Roman Shades. I’ll share more with you soon! mt
Hi Therese! I love your work! I taught myself to paint on silk from the internet. I hope you got to see my website. I am just setting up to begin a series of portraits. Where are you located? I would love to come to a workshop.
Hello Gabi 🙂 Cyprus! Wow! How wonderful that must be!? I’m in Minnesota getting through the cold of winter! Thank you so much for your appreciation of my art! The roman shades I created were cotton batiks that I sometimes would cut and piece back together or use the one design. They are backed with another piece of white cotton that I sew together with rows of stitching to insert the ribs across the width of the material. These are attached by rings and strings to draw up the curtain.

Love your window treatments! But is it cotton or silk..do you back it up to protect from the sun? Greetings from Cyprus.
