AED Day 13 - Fabric Art




Here is my bit of fabric art for the day - a simple landscape made from scraps of hand painted fabric and a bit of machine stitching, mounted on some pretty scrapbooking card stock. I may add some stitching around the edge but this is it for now!
Hope everyone has a lovely weekend!

Lovely lovely lovely -- you are all sooooo inspiring me for AEDM! Thank you much for the well wishes and visit to the Mother Henna blog. Finally almost human again here after 3 days of having been on another planet of flubug!

This landscape piece is really wonderful. I love how watercolory it is. Fabic artists always astound me when I see things like, "This was made from scraps of..." Seriously, when I look at scraps, I can't see anything! What visions you get from scraps. And the Family Portrait from earlier this week -- paper! Wow. Very cool!

Thanks much!

A million thanks for your comments. Kaylene, I use fusible web on the back of fabrics, cut them in crooked strips for the grass, then iron them down on a backing fabric. For the machine stitching I just lower the feed dogs and "draw" with the sewing machine, pretty fast. The fabrics were painted with Setacolor fabric paints.
