In the Works

Oh, I have so many things in the works and I am pulled in all sorts of directions.  How I am longing for a week -- even one entire day! -- with nothing to do but play with fabric.  Perhaps I can squeeze it into the schedule this weekend.  Meanwhile, here's one of the projects I am excited about.

I made this fabric by drawing the lines with a tjanting tool and acrylic paint, then added color with diluted acrylic paint.  I tell you, just the drawing process is meditative and mesmerizing.


Then these fellows were added with a stencil...


So I am eager to keep going but real work and family matters distract me.  Darn.  You'll have to tune back in to see where this goes.

  5. Your fabric seems to tell such a beautiful story, of the birds flying over the town covered by a rainbow.
