I've finished up my
April fabric journal
page...
Here is a close up of the
tree bark I added using
chain stitching with
mixed threads...
↧↧↧↧
I noticed that I had pulled
the chains too tightly and
had a lot of fabric puckers--
so
I turned the piece over and misted
the whole thing and pinned it out
on my ironing board to dry
overnight...
[you learn something with
each project, don't you?]
👵😌
Still a couple little places
that wouldn't stretch out left,
but I may try a bit of steam
ironing to flatten it a bit more...
*************************
May's prompt is:
"Favorite Color and Beautiful Bird"
I have a bird fabric in my stash
and
for some strange reason
no one color
springs to my mind--
?????
Mine used to be blue, then peach,
and now?????
I like them all--
maybe I should use a printed
background or
another one of my hand dyes...
I will have ponder this and
look at colors...
It's really strange that nothing
springs to mind...
Hugs, Julierose,
