Memories of Alaska Wallhanging

I hand painted this cloth then added snipits for the trees. The Kingfisher is holding a salmon. My hands are outlined with French knots. The string I hand dyed and couched down around the border and added pretty shells from a purchased necklace. Machine quilted. It hangs in my living room and every time I look at it I am so reminded of my adventures in Alaska.[ATTACH=CONFIG]437669[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]437670[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]437672[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]437673[/ATTACH]
