Still enchanted with my little leaf stamp, this time I took rubbings off it, using the Pentel dye sticks which are remarkably like oil pastels for fabric. Once ironed, the stuff sinks into the fabric, and acts as a resist for the Dynaflow paints. I had (temporarily) forgotten that the point of owning the materials and supplies is to USE THEM UP. You don’t get points for having saved stuff from your youth. So I am going after the stash with joyful abandon.
Still smitten with the thread too. It’n it purdy?
Beautiful! I love the combination of the purple fabric with the background. And ain’t it fun when you become enchanted with something in your work and it just calls to you! (I like that term, “enchanted”; I’ve been using “infatuated” for how I feel about my current work.)
