#51 “Ornate Box Turtle” by Amanda Calderón-Kidston
embroidery on upcycled fabric, 6 in. diameter
“The Ornate Box Turtle is one of just two species of land-dwelling turtles found in Southwest Missouri. I had the great fortune of seeing one of beautiful reptiles while on a bike ride on the Ruby Jack Trail and was inspired to create this embroidery. I used some upcycled fabric from some old khakis and DMC embroidery floss.”
