Good Morning Oranges

My first sewing attempt with dried clementine peels. They were too delicate and didn't make a realistic enough shape because of their stiffness.



Next I sewed orange peel slices together (thank you to south dining commons). They were fresher and moist and easier to sew. 
I didn't love the harsh triangular pieces. I was looking for something a little more organic.

I ate yet another orange and sewed the peeled pieces together.

I like this affect. It's more organic and pieced together in an expressive way. 



Orange you glad that worked out? I sure am.
