The final piece in the series, goes back to using some rust dyed fabric along with a piece of hand dyed coral 'waffle' fabric. The French knots found their way onto this piece as well. I seem to be in a bit of a French knot kick these days. The coral fabric seemed to invite simple cross stitch in those wonderful little square depressions and I decided to use a simple running stitch to provide some movement in the rust dyed area. The mono printed denim was machine quilted using a repeating squared spiral pattern. Since I wanted to leave on the two buttons from the original denim shirt, I've called this piece "Two Random Buttons".
