Check out this great item that I found online.
Artist: Mary Whittaker - Orlando, FL USA
Materials and Techniques: Materials: wool, cotton for binding and backing, a variety of threads of different weights and materials, beads Techniques:: hand appliquéd, hand quilted, used a variety of embroidery stitches
Artist's Statement: My favorite technique is creating contemporary folk art using wool, threads and stitches to create a design and texture. The touch of the wool, threads, and embellishments while 'painting' with wool allow me to play and truly feed my soul with each project. I chose to play with the sugar skull for the embellishment opportunities and their part of the Dia de los Muertos celebration which is also my birthday!
