Sometimes, I just can't help myself... while printing, I spotted a couple of bits of fabric. This one had been coloured during a workshop last year, and has been lying around ever since.
Yes, I probably should have ironed it first. No, it didn't seem to matter; it has turned out quite nicely. I will iron it before I stitch it, however. The other piece was a bit of rust dyed silk which, as it happens, has bondaweb on the back of it for some reason.
I think it works quite well. Admittedly, I have absolutely no idea what I'll use them for, but that's okay. I've got a bit of paint left...not sure how malleable it'll be after two days, admittedly. And I doubt I'll get round to using it for another couple of days. Today was a hospital day, complete with shower (they take up a huge amount of energy); tomorrow, I'll be meeting up with an old friend...who would doubtless say, less of the old.. So not enough energy to spare for print making, painting or anything else. At least I got some hand stitching done in the hospital; waiting rooms are ideal for that sort of thing. And we're heading for the coast tomorrow, so perhaps a few photographs... art is life, after all.
