Lobster and Kelp Fabric Collage (ACEO)



Lobsters are kind of a "Maine Thing" and I have enjoyed making fabric art lobsters since opening my Etsy shop. With the passing of the new Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act, I voluntarily removed my stuff lobsters from my shop until the regulations--and the interpretation of those rules--become clearer.

As a result, I have been fiddling with lobster designs for my fabric ACEOs and think the design pictured here has potential. The idea is a lobster swimming over a bed of kelp (seaweed). I like the idea of an underwater view.

3.5 inches wide by 2.5 inches long
8.9 centimeters wide by 6.4 centimeters long

ACEOs, fabric collages and contemporary art quilts may be found in my shop.

Love the pop of red against the blue and green background. Really nicely done!
