I took this piece
and coated it with flour paste again. When the flour paste was dry I crackled it and then painted it with brown paint.
When I washed it off it looked like this. This looks better when you see it than in the photo!
I also played with my thermofax screens on paper and on calico.
Sorry you can't see the paper ones very well.
I tore these up into squares and rectangles and with a few pieces of other fabric put them together with wall paper paste!
I also played with some die cut canvas which I put onto calico with bondaweb
and covered with a layer of scrim.
Jan taught me how to use my sewing machine with encouragement from Cath. Still needs more practice!
The great thing about working with a group is that we all spark off each other so as if it weren't bad enough that I had so many ideas last week, I have come home with loads more. Watch this space!
Thanks for stopping by.

It must be lovely working with a group who share similar ideas. You have used some very interesting techniques here,I will look forward to seeing what comes of them.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fabulous weekend. Well done. That's what I find valuable about working with a group, not only new ideas from the tutor but from seeing how others work is just as rewarding.
