Red Hat Fungi Funguys


This was a fun challange! I have represented a gathering of many different mushroom at a Red Hat gathering. I used green hand dye for the background, a mans tie for the big hat with lavender metalic lace, red satin overlayed with an open red lace, rayon faille in magenta with pink satin ovelayed with organza for the tops, red satin, red velvet, and chiffon . The eyes are either embroidered or beads. What fun making all the different personalities.

Cute and whimsical red-hat party! You depicted such a variety of fungi at the party and gave each such wonderful expressions. Your quilting added to your piece. Nice job.

Love the word play, the thread work and all the different types of fungi you've represented with your red hats.
