Weaving a wolf

 

I have had a weaving stitch saved as a desired wolf effect and so probably a month ago started this piece, embroidery takes time and this was the fur of the beast. 

Well I am so happy with him and he seems happy and his hitch-hiking Little Red has a smile to! well worth the wait and the search for the tiniest scrap of vintage fabric (I knew it was there somewhere) which provided the flowers.

Mika Hirasa has been the producer of the cover of Ukatama magazine since 2009. It is a production that focuses on a healthy life and healthy food.The origin of the name "Ukatama" is God of the food called "Uka-no-mitama-no-kami"
Mika has used a little girl with a red hood for these illustrations and often she is accompanied by a wolf, though sometimes the wolf's character is assumed by a different wild animal, a bear or mole for example. The illustrations are made in textiles but have real food items collaged into the
finished composition.
