Flora Nyland Fiber Creations & More, March 2014


Stopped by to see mom & dad earlier as they were preparing to head south to balmy Colombia SC to visit with my brother and his family. Flora is an exceptional artiste has been quite busy, delving into fiber arts using materials her own mother had squirreled away over the years.


Spaghetti Squash Garden


Nothing Beets a Red Onion


No title for this one yet, I believe they are tester patterns Flora sewed during her younger days.


Linen Drawing


Four Pillows, as the patches are remnants from four throw pillows that had been consumed by the ravages of time.


Two woodblocks from mom's era as a silkscreen artist, her intention is to pull a few positive prints from them in this configuration and show the results along with the blocks.


March in Syracuse ... kind of wish I was going with them.
