Samples













I have not blogged for a while. I have been busy tidying and picking up endless piles of leaves.
I got Maggie Grey's book" Textile Translations" for Christmas so have been trying out the making the basic fabric exercise out. I did not have all the correct ingredients so had to improvise a bit. I have not done any stitching on them as yet, I need to work my way up to that. I am frightened of spoiling them.

They are wonderful Carol!
How did you do that and
what did you use?
I've been doing something
similar this past week with
texture on paper, using tissue
paper and Aluminum foils.
I love your colors!
