Art Interpretations in Cross Stitch
Maxine Hadfield
July- September, 2010

Maxine Hadfield has donated a collection of 58 cross stitch textiles to UIHC Project Art.

Each framed cross stitched textile  is a reproduction and interpretation of a fine art masterpiece. She began each piece by researching the artist and has included a brief art history lesson with each finished work. Ms.  Hadfield charted and interpreted each artwork herself and refers to her art as “fine art with a fine needle”. Each piece involves 200 to 300 hours of stitching to create the image.
