Red Fabric Day
Really enjoyed making my own fabric today. My inspiration was my art work from the Dionne Swift 'Drawing for Textile' course. Starting with a piece of cream wool fabric, I embellished with merino wool top, creating lines, which developed into more shapes. I added hand stitch and added fabric paper to produce a lovely peice of fabric art.
Rose Leaf Print
Decided to try a little fabric dyeing, so yesterday I soaked a peice of cotton in a dye bath of wind fallen conker shells. The fabric turned out a shade of orange. Not really happy with fabric so thought I would wrap some rose leaves and rose petals in the fabric and leave it overnight in the dye bath. The result is now drying on the washing line.
