When I started this textile artwork I had no idea how it would turn out. As I layered and stitched, I thought about journeys (a recurring theme in my work), the passing of time, the milestones in my life. To express these thoughts visually I stitched tally marks in red. I left a thread hanging after I reached 100, to signify the future, the unknown, the unfinished. Next, I quilted some diagonal lines to represent pathways. I love making books so it ultimately became a scroll, which is an ancient book form

Eco dyed/printed vintage curtain and tablecloth etc; rusty objects; thread; hand stitched.
