Thanks girls for a fun class. Your pages looked fantastic. Well done all of you!!
a class of 8 is a great number to manage. I am grateful that you all still like my work and attend my classes. It means a lot to me. many thanks.
Just wanted to post a few shots of the work I have been creating at my
"CONTEMPORARY TEXTILE COURSE."
This book consists of some of my over-dyed fabrics.
ONE of our projects was to create something using some of our dyed fabrics.
most of the girls are making a garment....
I have made a BAG which I will post later next week.
BUT GUESS WHAT I REALLY WANTED TO MAKE ??? YES A BOOK !!!! SURPRISE, SURPRISE??
here are some shots.
there are 6 pages in total.
I used shades of purple and pink throughout the book to keep the theme flowing.

this page is named "IMAGINE" I added a Tim Holtz disc.
very shabby chic for me don't you think??
The page consists of old doillies and cloth serviettes I collected from a opp. shop.
also wool, buttons, and metal.
(had to put a scrapbooking spin on it didn't I??)
