Pulled (Drawn) Thread Trees

This term at Tresillian we are making pulled thread trees.

The background fabric is linen. We removed a section of the weft threads, and we’re using the warp threads to make the trees.

I have added macrame cord and twine to thicken the trunks.

My trees are going to be flowering – cherry, apple, almond, etc. I have bought different fibres in shades of pink, white, yellow, green and brown.
