Etsy Featured Artist - Backwoods Creations

Maryann Anderson, from the backwoods of Maine, opened her etsy shop, Backwoods Creations, in December of 2006. She has had much success in selling her folk art fabric animals. She also loves to do custom work, so if you have a pet that you would like to have "immortalized" as a fabric creation. Convo Maryann for the details.

"Rose Cuff Bracelet or Anklet Fabric Embellished Adornment for the Wrist" is made from two layers of cotton, embellished with embroidery. The roses are made from a silk/rayon mix. Very cute and comfortable-looking. Also good for those with metal allergies, like the artist herself.
"Celia Tabby Cat Fabric Sculpture Feral Feline EFA" is a fabric folk art cat. She is approximately 7.5" high and 14" long, made of handpainted muslin over a wire support. The EFA means that 10% of her "adoption fee" goes to Etsy For Animals and will be donated to an animal charity of the month.
"Rose Breasted Sparrow Fabric Sculpture OOAK" made of cotton over a wire support and filled with polyester fiberfill.

Go to Maryann's etsy shop for more fun creations.
Maryann also keeps a blog, which you can find here.
