TMP003 - Turtle Moon Mandala - Blue - Turquoise - Silver

Please view the full picture in the 2nd photo. This hand painted fabric Turtle Mandala measures 17.5cm (6 1/2") diameter. It is single sided and stiffened on the reverse (plain black) to hold it's shape. It comprises of a hand cut lino print of my own design. It has then been over painted with pearlescent/metallic fabric paints, outlined with silver to make it 'pop' and stitched together. It features softened metal from drinks cans that have been stitched,inked and embossed at the 4 directions. Mixed yarns are zig zagged on the outer edge and a hanging loop with a single, hand rolled, painted, paper bead to finish it off on the top. Please note: I have other items for sale of a similar design and technique in different colour themes listed here in my Folksy shop if you wish to take a look. Care of this handmade fabric item: This item is decorative and not really suitable for children or over handling. Simply iron on a gentle heat on the reverse if any distortion occurs. Whilst colours are light-fast please keep out of direct sunlight or windows to avoid fading or degrading over time. Items can be dusted with a soft brush or lightly wiped with a damp cloth if needed. Not suitable to be washed or submerged in water. A little BluTak type temporary adhesive can be added on the reverse near the bottom if in a draughty spot to hold it to the wall. Thanks for looking Vx
