"Orion Nebula"
Photo-transfer to cotton
fabric, machine stitching,
crystals applied with glue &
heat.
About; I will never forget
sitting in front of our TV and
watching man land on the
moon. It was a dream come
true. Ever since, I have been
fasinated with space.
My dream is that when we
finally meet other intelligent
species in outer space, that
they can teach us how to
live in peace on our own
planet & with others in the
universe. This panel was
made from a photograph
taken by the
Hubble Telescope,
of Orion Nebula, M42. NGC
1976. I downloaded this

Applique & fabric.
I was interested in expressing something about the
world as both big and small.....It's a paradox that both
its smallness and its hugeness inspire dreams. In any
case, peace, generosity, and comfort are everyone's
dreams.

"Space Walk"
Panel & String, Paint, Buttons, Enbroidery, Iron-Ons
Artists: Maureen A. Cunningham, Sony Muniz and
our granddaughters Sophia & Olivia Cunningham.
About; Sophia and I cut the panel; then we sewed it
a different way, I padded the astronaut and used
string to connect him to the rocket. The Space station
was in Cape Canaveral Florida and Coconut Beach is
close by. I added two parts so that the girls could
paint. Sony supervised while I sewed on the buttons.

sent it Spoonflower,
a company that specializes
in printing photos on fabric.
I titled and mirrored the
image so it fit onto one
yard of fabric. I then
selected a 24" square of the
fabric, layered it with
fusible fleece and a cotton
backing, and machine
quilted all three layers
together.
I added some Swarovski
crystals to evoke the
shinning stars and finished
the edges with Rattail
binding.
