While thumbing through the book Creative Awakenings , I came across this picture of fabric bowls made by Lesley Riley . Aren't they amazing? The book even has instructions for making them. I think they're gorgeous.
I practiced making a couple of fabric collages this weekend. This collage is adhered to one of those teeny-tiny tote bags sold at Michael's for about a dollar. I used fusible webbing to create it, and then sealed it in Modge Podge .
The tag is paper and beads strung on yarn.
The bag was tough to photograph because the
Modge
Podge
created a shiny surface. I made another one this afternoon and coated it with gel medium instead to see if that turns out more matte. It's still drying, but I should know soon.
Here is the wavy scarf I started in my short row class at Stitches a few weeks ago. I've cleverly hidden the end so you can't see it because the wave is all funky. I messed up the pattern and didn't notice for a while. So now I'm trying to decide whether to keep going or start over. I'll probably start over.
Hope you had a good weekend.
