'bandaged heart'

 Close up; the 'heart' with loose threads.
 The complete piece. It's turned out like a small cushion.....so for the exhibition in November, I'm thinking to put it onto a chair, and just hope no-one sits on it!
I printed onto a bandage, and stitched the fabric/s together.
Layers; and stuffed with quilting fibre.
Then stitched onto denim, as the background fabric. 
This was one day in spring, in the very early stages of making, when the sun shone in through the studio door, and illuminated the procian dyed polyester! You can see the texture of the bandage more clearly in this photo.
