In my last post, I promised a photo of my Adar II-Purim journal.
I have been working on blue.
I finished one piece. I actually used the same wavy pattern as in a previous Fibre Arts Toronto piece I had made. I decided to do blue textures. So I used seven different blue fancy fabrics, and then some blue stitching and blue trims, yarns and beads for the seams between the blues.
It turned out nicely. But I was playing it safe, not really challenging myself which is what the FAT is about. So I decided to do another piece. I finally tried the sulky water soluble stuff and sandwiched bits and pieces left over from the first blue and other blue and white projects. It was fun and I think I may use the technique again. Then I made fabric beads using straws. And put some textured yarn down the sides. Now, since I'm being so "creative", I may just give it a wavy edge and use the facing technique from the last Quilting Arts magazine. But I couldn't find my QA mag this morning.
And I really hope to post photos today, tomorrow or on the weekend.
