BUTTERFLIES

Butterflies play an important role in my textile art. 
They symbolize: change - rebirth - hope - transformation - joy.
"Milagre", Spanish for butterfly, representing the afterlife or spirits of the dead.

MIGRATION

18" x 36"
$700 CND

​Cotton, Setacolour paint, cotton batting
Hand appliqué, painted and embroidered. 

A drift of ghostly Monarch butterflies frames a few vivid ones on the yearly migration from Canada to Mexico. Destruction of food sources and resting trees have severely impacted their numbers.


Ethical Butterfly made just for you
Each one is hand-crafted and ready to perch on your favourite purse, hat, blouse, jacket, car, hair, fridge... just about anywhere.
Made using double-sided fusible material that is water-proof and extremely durable, these delicate beauties are tougher than they look. ​
