I got the news last weekend that one of my pieces was accepted to Sacred Threads!!! So exciting! After a slew of rejections, this one finally got the proverbial high 5!!
My piece is for the area of spirituality. I named it "In The Silence I Have Seen Him." I had done this for the black and white challenge but wasn't done in time for last entry into Sacred Threads so I had to wait until now to try. This was a whole piece white fabric and I sketched on the angel with pencil. I worked in layers using black setacolor and aloe vera gel to get the saturation and different layers of gray. Then "sketched" the details using my sewing machine. I went in with shiva paintstiks in white and black to add details and additional shading. I love this piece and hope others will too.

Congratulations on your acceptance into Sacred Threads! your piece is hauntingly beautiful, and very appropriate for the Easter season!
Patty, this is such an awesome work and I am so excited for you getting in this show with it. I think you can get in other shows too. I personally think it is award-winning. Good luck and let us know what happens. I didn't see any announcement on FB about this...just happened to check your blog today...I wanted to see what new ATC's you were working on. ;=)
