Yesterday while I was cleaning out some  quilt project starts, I came across this poppie one.   Seems, I forgot I had it.   Most likely I didn’t know what to do with it and got bored.  It looks different now.   It start off just three red blobs of paint against the blue background.  And its still three red blobs!  I decided to try for more definition.  So I got out the bleach and went to work.  I’m really  pleased with how that turned out.  Now I’m trying to decide if I want to  define it more with some black paint or proceed with some stitching.  Maybe just a little bit of bla….Well I just don’t know yet!   Exhale…

What are we working on?

without comments

I have been working on some  of my post cards. They are so fun to work with. Small pieces are not that much of a time investment. That makes them perfect for exploration work.  I did a discharge technique and I enjoyed the process because of the element of surprise in the end results.  This was a easy and quick technique.   I didn’t have to go out to buy supplies.  You use things usually you already have on hand.  I was please with the results. Some beading maybe and this piece will be complete.
