The centre of the circle - Recovery

The outside of the circle is represented by the heads and wine glass and the centre of the circle represents recovery.  I have used a clear head to reflect how the head changes once the alcohol is no longer being drunk.  I did create a head, paint it pink and put hair on it but feedback I received said it looked angry and ugly !! so I re thought it and used a clean plain cream head on a muslin fabric which is almost a little flimsy.  I have used a piece of heavy calico for the centre piece which I cut into a random shape as recovery is where the cycle has been broken so I didn't want to use a circle.   Onto the calico, I placed all the heat transferred words randomly, I sewed on the clear head and added wadding to make it 3d.   There is a simple circle on the head saying "recovery=abstinence=choices".   I used a circle from WordArt purely because I liked the way it looked.
