A View Askew

RuthAWhite

A View Askew - Seventh in my nebula series and fifth in my window series, "A View Askew" toys with shape and boundaries. The gossamer 'gasses' float off the edge of space while the 'window' opens onto an inner view of the nebula. I dyed the silk organza in the microwave using Procyon dyes, and reverse appliquéd the parallelogram from the top and batting, then the backing separately, inserting silk organza to fill the space between.
