The Golden Cockerel | Santa Fe Opera | design by Gary McCann | 2017
Parrot shape sewn in red canvas, with a sleeve down the center. Beak was stiffened with Fosshape sewn to spandex allowing full range of motion. Small swatches and strips of fabrics were hand sewn to create a patchwork finish, and thin gold cording was added to highlight the edges. Created in one week.
