Friday Instagram Finds No. 87 with Forest Fibers

Today we feature the hand embroidery of Jackie of @forestfibers. I love how she fills the space in the fabric with paint and lots of little stitches like those in the examples above. She goes outside the hoop with wall hangings that have beautiful meaning. Jackie is 21 years old, but definitely has an old soul. Check out some of my favorite piece below, and then check out her Instagram feed @forestfibers.

You can also purchase Jackie's art on her Etsy shop Forest Fibers Studios.

March 20, 2017 is the two year anniversary of Friday Instagram Finds - woo hoo!! I'm going to do something to switch it up a little bit, so you might want to start tagging your photos with #feelinstitchyfridays  :)

"All men dream: but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dreams with open eyes, to make it possible." - T.E. Lawrence

I have a number of things to finish up in the next week. This warm mountain scene is one of them. ✨🌲

I've been trying to work on like five different things at once to get more work out. But now my desk is really messy and I'm feeling a little scattered so I think I'll just commit to finishing this first. 😂

Found this too late for Easter but it's wonderful all the same.
