Week 4 Area Enclosing

This week we will show you some examples of Area Enclosing stitched resist Shibori.



A little experiment, with a stencil I drew shapes into a figure:


The one on the left was made by whip stitches over a group of pleats of each shape. The one on the right was made by tacking stitches.





Dying:


That is an interesting outcome!




Let's see what others discovered in this range!

  2. Hi. I love the one with the whip stitching and pleats. For the one on the right, did you just outline the shapes? I want sure what you meant by tacking.
