This one is making me grumpy. It is fabric I batiked using the mashers shown in the pictures. The pictures are printed on the see-through stuff (printable silk organza) and fused over the top of some stitching on the masher prints. I think it is ugly, and I can’t quite figure out how to retrieve it. I tried adding embroidery, but it looks lumpy. I tried adding another picture over the top, now you can’t see the only part of the embroidery that came out well. It is tempting to trowel some of the medium over the top and make impressions of those mashers in it.
I didn’t like the original fabric well enough to use it on its own, so I suppose I shouldn’t be too surprised I don’t like what I can do to it either. I’ll stare at it a while longer.
Do I have to like them all? I can try again, or I can keep poking this one. Or I can be done for the day, and start again tomorrow.

Well, *I* think it’s really neat. I like the colors a lot. And I like that you can see things through the organza!
