Barn Owl Freehand Machine Embroidered portrait, 6 inch hoop art

$160.00

This portrait is created freehand on the sewing machine. Drawing each mark, value and detail by manipulating the canvas under the moving needle. Each has a final result of a line drawing but with a more labor-intensive method that I chose as a dedication towards their preservation.
This is Snow Owl is based on my ink drawing which is based on a photograph from a bird app. on my iPad
This bird portrait has been created by freehand stitching on a sewing machine! Otherwise, I draw with my sewing machine. There is absolutely No programming involved. I draw each portrait first as an ink drawing, and use that to trace guidelines of the image on the canvas using a fabric marker that fades or washes away. Even though I may use the same drawing per bird, each becomes a one of kind due to the process that I use. Stitched in black on heavy duty cotton duck canvas fabric and is stretched in a 6” wooden embroidery hoop, ready to hang!

Hoop pieces are stretched and attached with double stick tape to a wooden solid circle that is then framed with an embroidery hop. A second wooden disc is then glued down on back for durability and stability as well as a professional backing with a metal D-ring for hanging. Each piece is signed and dated along with name of bird on the back of each piece.

Great present for your any Twitcher or birder!
Makes a great house warming or present to yourself

These also look beautiful as a grouping! Can be custom on a different color background or color of thread. Allow up to two weeks, for delivery. Please convo me if you need it earlier.

Each portrait is signed and dated along with the name of bird on the inside of the embroidery hoop.
