I made this vest about 17 years ago in a class I took from Rosemary Eichorn, who wrote the book entitled
The Art of Fabric Collage: an Easy Introduction to Creative Sewing. That was long before I started blogging, so I never took photos of it. I didn't have a digital camera then either.
On Tuesday, Val of
Val's Quilting Studio, has her weekly Linky Party to rejuvenate your old posts on your blog and she chooses a theme. This week's theme is Zebras. The only thing I have ever made with zebras on it was this collage vest, so I needed to get photos taken of it in order to post it. So this isn't an old posting, but it is an old vest. Anyhow, I am happy to share this vest I made with you now.

Your collaged vest is timeless! I love your detail stitching on the elephant. Isn't it fun to review things we have made previously? Great share.
ReplyDeleteRight!! I love it!! My kids in second grade would get a kick if I wore it! So glad you got this one archived on your blog....it's got style!
ReplyDelete17 years ago. That seems so long ago, but when I think back to what year that was and what I was doing at the time it seems like yesterday. I love the vest. I especially like Aftrican wildlife. Your vest has held up pretty well over the years, a tribute to the quality construction.

So much work, Daryl. It is beautiful.
ReplyDeletegreat job on the vest, I love the theme. I think the elephant is my favorite. its like a much better version of "where's Waldo" you can get your grandson to find all the animals. As usual quite the inspiration.
