A Very Spiritual Chicken
October 17, 2006
This is Marilyn. She’s a very spiritual chicken. Here she is relaxing in a tree at the local Buddhist temple. How she got to be so spiritual is a long story and not a pretty one. It involves Korean barbeque, a late night out with a shady drug dealer named "Papa" and a slamdancing session that got just a wee bit out of control. I won’t go into details. The point is that Marilyn has made a big turn around in her life and now all is well. Marilyn is made with 100% cotton map fabric, blue and black polka dot fabric which was part of a skirt in a former life and red/white kimono fabric. All appliques are handsewn.
And here she is waiting for the mail.
