Description
This elegant praying mantis is just one of the amazing insects Lesley has created.
The interest provided by the variegated and textured threads and ribbons is a hallmark of Lesley's work.
Bouclé and chenille threads are overlaid with organza and couched with bullion knots.
The creative use of interesting threads and stitches contributes to the lifelike representation of this insect.
