Another adventure in to fabric painting at a workshop with Lisa Walton called Gorgeous Overlays. Lisa's technique relies on stitching through a paper template onto a basted quilt sandwich. The paper is then torn away - the most difficult part - then the stitched shapes are painted with fabric paint. The stitched lines stop the paint bleeding beyond the stitched shape.
Once again, I had trouble with my positive and negative shapes.
I now need to find a quiet hour to finish the painting with the lovely metallic paints that Lisa introduced us to.
I wondered whether stitching would stop paints bleeding - and now I know! Some lovely creations there Mrs H
ReplyDeleteLooking lovely! Those paints are wonderfully shiny. Did you have to stabilise the fabric at all before the painting part?
