CASK53: Loon Tunes

Picture
Picture

Course Description:
Loon Tunes is the fourth design that I have adapted, with permission, from the work of graphic artist Eleanor Grosch.  The loon itself is depicted in bold texture stitches placed over metallic laid rows,  providing a wet appearance.  A handsome blackwork pattern is used to simulate the neck stripes and rows of white Hungarian variations embellish the back feathers.  A buttonhole-covered jump ring adds dimension to the distinctive red eye, and Algerian eyes and whipped spider variations form the splashing water.  Ann’s original border and background treatments complete the design.
