Hi Everyone,
I wanted to show you my bamboo wallhanging.
This is my own design, I have one finished-  I got my inspiration from a bamboo screen I had bought in Florida a few years ago.  Every summer I hang it in our gazebo.  It has a palm tree and beach scene  painted on it.  As I would sit looking at it and noticing how it was made I thought "why can't I do this using fabric over the bamboo".

I embellished fabric,  wrapped it around pieces of bamboo, then hung them together with a bead between each piece.

I made many practice pieces, some I painted as with this Palm Tree design which is similar to my bamboo screen for outside.

I have a new design I'm working on now.  I will keep you posted as to my progress.
