The allure of the Bougainvillea Wall is revealed as one enters a bright and cheerful courtyard filled with flowers and desert flora. Central to the piece is a sparkling fountain whose music delights and soothes the garden visitor. This piece incorporates interesting stumpwork techniques and many beautiful fibers such as Ty Di thread’s brilliant hues, overdyed flosses in cotton and fine wool, metallics, boucles, silk ribbons, beads, and some gimps and cords from the fabric store. Real tiny terra-cotta pots are final embellishments to this perfect setting.
