Garden Lady Hooped Wall Hanging
Garden Lady Hooped Wall Hanging
Inger Waage, a Norwegian artist (1923-1995), explored whimsical garden scenes in her functional dinnerware and serving pieces for the Starvangerflint company in the middle of the last century. They were seen as very avant-garde and somewhat bohemian even then. Her work has enjoyed growing popularity among midcentury modern collectors today. In this homage to her work, Nancy Devine created a garden that begins in the gardener’s imagination and flows out to the world. She created her Garden Lady design on Essex linen and a myriad of variegated threads and embellishments that have lived in her stash for long enough. I hope you try this free-flowing design that holds heaven, wildflowers, and a sense of bliss. None of the stitches used are complicated, and even the placement template is just a guideline. Make this garden lady your very own. The stitches used to hand embroider the Garden Lady Wall Hanging: satin stitch, stem stitch, split stitch, lazy daisy stitch, French knots. Thread painting by machine was used for the leaves and flower centers. Nancy Devine nancywhiskeynancyo.blogspot.com

Ask anyone who sews or knits, there are always small, but vital tools of the trade that go missing under the couch, beneath the cushions, or they simply roll away, never to be seen again. This project aims to tidy and corral those little essentials in two ways, at home or on the go, it all depends on the finishing. Is it a bowl? Is it a pouch? It can be both!
