Detail Photos: Long Collage Art Work

This wall hanging is about 39 x 58 inches.  The background/backing a heavy piece of drapery fabric with enough stability to be firm but not so thick it is hard to needle.  I am not using any batting & I may not even put on a backing.  I'll wait until I am finished to decide.

All the stitching is stitched with the longarm. I'm working down the section as I go. Then, moving to the next section.  In the end, there will be 3 sections.

When composing this style of work, I am most interested in the little cast offs, the raw edges, the textures of the fabrics I choose.  Distressed is preferred.  :-)
