the meaning of life is a life full of meaning

 

 

 

"It was as if someone had taken a tiny bead of pure life and decking it as lightly as possible with down and feathers, had set it dancing and zigzagging to show us the true nature of life"
- Virginia Woolf

 

Scribbles of dead birds to plan out future embroideries. I've completed one already of a song thrush, available in my Etsy shop here.

I loved making this, playing with layers of thread and trying to capture something so delicate, turning the morbid into something beautiful.

I'll definitely turn this into a series of embroideries.
