Hiawatha Wall-Hanging

Description

Inspired by the poem by Wordsworth ☼ 12.25"x12.25” ☼ Fabric, Natural Dyes, Ink, New and Repurposed Materials ☼ US Shipping is included in the price ☼ The "canvas" is made of new and repurposed fabrics that have been hand dyed, distressed, and made to look aged. Sewn layer upon layer they evolve, until the substantial piece is ready for the wall where it will hang to reveal its story. Constructed using assemblage, collage, and quilting techniques, they may incorporate resurrected public domain images or original works. The story of each is further told using items like stones, feathers, antique jewelry, beads, handmade paper, and a variety of mysterious materials. ☼ Organic, earthy, and tactile, these works ask to be experienced with all of your senses. ☼ Don't see what you like? Pieces can be custom ordered, created, and often shipped within a few days! ☼ MaidenShade on Handmade at is where you will find not only beautifully handcrafted night lights, but also art from Jennifer Swan Hopkins and Studio Cygne. An idea or inspiration begins the process of a story that must be told in each and every piece I create, from wall hangings to night lights.
