This week I am working on another deconstructed piece as well as sketching out and planning another piece that I made in a dream last night.

Something made from my deconstructed cloth
It isn't much, but I wanted to try to so a small piece using some of the cloth. I picked a piece I didn't like, probably not a good idea. I added some beads, embroidery and sari yarn (silk). It reminded me of ocean flora which I believe one day we will be harvesting for food. I called my little (8.5 X 8.5) piece Sea Food.
I hope to see much more of your experiments. Deconstructed screen printing is the nexus of artistic intention and serendipity.

Well, I do like these very much! Nice colours.
ReplyDeleteI really like this piece. I'm definitely going to have to get some sari yarn.
ReplyDeleteI like it! The beauty of Complex Cloth is that you can improve fabric in so many ways... and you have just demonstrated that with this piece! And I agree with Quilter Beth... must get some sari yarn!
ReplyDeleteI also like them. Beautiful colors.
ReplyDeleteSea Food is really, really nice!
ReplyDeleteThe thread is Madeira Lana (50% wool and 50% nylon) which is one of my BEST purchases ever. The sari yarn was from ebay.
ReplyDeleteLove all your little doodlings...and green/blue with a pop or orange? How can that EVER be wrong? :)
ReplyDeleteOh wow! This is what I want to do! I love these.
ReplyDeleteI do like the loose watery look you got, and I too can 'see' the 'sea'. This stitching looks like such fun. I'm thoroughly enjoying your blog. Thanks. My work is similar. I am all about the surface, but I begin with fabric collage. Please stop by and see what I do with the smallest scraps @ kbartdesigns.com
