Textile Tantrums

Textile Tantrums is a challenge being run by The Thread Studio in Perth WA, my favorite supplier of threads and other marvellous things, like Romeo dissolving material, silk and wool, lutrador, aquabond and shiva paint sticks to name but a few.
Tantrums were restricted in size, and weight because they are to be a travelling exhibit, firstly in Melbourne at the AQC, then Brisbane at the Textile show, later in Perth at the Craft Show and finally at the Stiches and Craft show Alexandra Palace, London.
Techniques to be used could be any Textile art method/methods, including fusing, burning, painting, hand and machine stitching, felting, embellishing and so on.
I used machine stitching, painting, digitising, flower stitcher embellishments, applique, hand stitching with silk, rayon and metallic threads, beads and found objects.
Happily my entry, "Alpha Tantrums" was chosen amongst the four winners, as was the entry from Sandra Champion, a fellow Tasmanian and member of the "Tuesday" group that I convene. Hooray for Tasmanian textile artists!!!!
