Frida Kahlo Print - Based on an original free-motion sewn design by Bek Tainton

This design was inspired by one of my favourite artists and based on the iconic photo of Frida by Nickola Muray. This is my first portrait in fabric and is quite quirky in nature due to the use of patterned fabrics. This print looks beautiful framed up on the wall and could be given as a gift for any occasion, but would be particularly apt for anyone who loves Frida or mid-century style designs. This print is also available as a greeting card, a post card and as a mini print.

This is a print of my original sewn artwork using free motion sewing. The image on this print captures the texture of the fabric and the stitch detail of the original artwork in a vibrant and fun design. Free motion sewing is literally like using a sewing machine to draw with, where the fabric is the paper and the thread is the ink. The only difference is that the fabric (paper) is moved under the thread (ink) rather than the other way around! I use a 50 year old Pfaff sewing machine, that belonged to my grandmother. There's no fancy tricks or modern technology, but I wouldn't change my machine for the world!

**Nativia ® film is made from corn or other sources such as sugar beet and potatoes and conforms to the EN1342 standard, meaning it is biodegradable and compostable. It has also achieved the OK Biobased certificate from Vincotte. Nativia ® film breaks down quickly into carbon dioxide, water and biomass by microbial digestion in the right conditions. The film is sourced from renewable sources and is food safe.
Nativia ® can be industrially composted by placing it in a green waste collection bin and will disintegrate in six months to CO2, water and humus, a soil nutrient. It is possible to pace it in the food waste collection, but check with your local council first. It can also be mechanically and chemically recycled (not with other plastics because it has a lower melting temperature) and it can be incinerated. Nativia ® films do not biodegrade in landfill conditions.
