DetailFree-motion machine embroidery. Thread, photo transfer, sheer and metallic fabrics. (18" x 36") 2008.Josephine's Locket is based on the locket my mother wore, in which she had placed tiny photographs of herself and my father. She had my dad's picture cut out in the shape of a heart. I found that particularly touching, a sign of the loving feelings that she had trouble expressing outwardly.
