Sooooo therapeutic! I made a sample twisty thread catcher. It’s not finished so I can show the ladies the various stages
I also did some painting! I’m teaching a class later in the year where we’ll stick fabric and fabric related stuff onto card, paint the whole lot with black gesso (?) and then add a thin layer of bright colour (I’ve got purple, red and blue) then add a little bit of metallic wax (pewter, bronze and mother of pearl) to highlight the raised textures.
I expect it has a name in card making circles, but “painting” is all I can give you, apart from photos
Nice result but only just fabriccy (and the black gesso is like tar - sticks until you can eventually peel it off hands, jeans, cutting boards (!) etc) but the ladies want to try so we will
Very cute fabric for the thread catcher and interesting result with the painting!
ReplyDeleteI like your thread catcher Benta, you are a very useful person to have around :)
ReplyDeleteThe fabric painting sounds interesting (but messy!).
I like your thread catcher and I think those hearts look amazing. It may be messy but it's a wonderful effect :)
ReplyDeleteLove the fabric for your Thread Catcher, it’s really cute!
