textile art, thrift, and gift

This is my first attempt at this "photo to textile" representation - I sewed a bunch of fabric scraps to a piece of muslin then stretched it all over a wooden frame. The photograph I interpreted is one of a golf course by Christop. This is a present for my boss who loves to play golf.
