Windows of My Life


Bev has made "Windows of My Life" for her grandson, Andrew's 18th birthday. It includes some of his drawings transferred to fabric, and other fabrics reflecting his interests, including guitars, bowling, marine life, some reminders of Australia and the many places he has travelled. Andrew is particularly interested in movies and drama, and Bev has cleverly included references to them through both the feature fabrics and the black and white window frames, and with a "film" fabric for the border. The three dimensional effect of the two-colour window frames shows up well in the photo. The backing of black with a curvy white line and dots compliments the front beautifully.


We'll be able to see it up close at the exhibition in April, and Andrew will be delighted with it June.
