This is what it looked like before felting:
And after:
These are the other printed and painted fabrics I laminated:
The organza was much more successful and I think the sheen on it is much prettier
Silk chiffon, this one resulted in the least puckering and the truest representation of the original design
Cotton muslin with carded top behind, this one has some lovely puckering that compliments the painted design:
Cotton scrim - I think the green merino has worked much better than the white as a backdrop for the monoprint.
This was the piece of cotton muslin with the glitter and 3D paints, the bronze 3D paint worked remarkably well but the glitter has lost some of its intensity during felting.
Great textures!
ReplyDeleteIt's not cheating - merely a way to solve a problem that achieves the desired result.
ReplyDeleteLovely pieces and I especially enjoyed the last two photos.
