Ever notice how fabric bundles have food names like: Jelly rolls, Honeybuns and of course, Layer Cakes? Which is what I named this piece, Layer Cake. Back in 2011 I did a drawing called Honeybun. I guess I need to do a drawing called Jellyroll to cover all my bases.
I adore Lesley’s taste in fabric. She entrusted me with her: Flea Market Fancy by Denyse Schmidt, Dogwood Blooms by Joel Dewberry, Mendocino by Heather Ross. It was also my first introduction to Lotta Jansdotter- Echo, whom I now adore! Now there is one more… see it? The bottom left. I’m not sure which fabric that is. Do you know? In hindsight I should have written it down.
Drawn with coloured pencils in June of 2012, this piece is 14″ high, 18″ wide and 2″ deep. Kind of sounds like the dimensions of a… well, cake, doesn’t it! Have a wonderful day and hopefully it includes a piece of cake… you can eat.

I never made the connection between fabric and food! But I do love both
Your drawings are absolutely beautiful!
