Stamping Your Heart Out

Last year visiting Pro Chem I took home some cute Indian stamps. I've tried them out using transparent textile dye. The large blue letterforms are printed with a thermofax screen I made. Just fooling around!

What Are You Doing August?

This must be Karen, printing away, in my class in Montreal last month. She's reported she is happily using the work she did in class. I'm going to repeat the printing class in August 15-19 through Pro Chemical and Dye in Fall River. That is, if I get another 5 to 6 people to sign up. Hope it is a go! If you are on the fence, decide to join us for the week. I promise you a grand time. And great results.

Not Done Till I Say So

This piece (I am calling Trifold 3) just needed more. So, after quilting, facing, and adding a sleeve, I plopped it back on the table and did some stamping. It's better now, and maybe done.

Stamp On

A detail shot of Pink Leaf 5 shows the stamping of those soft triangles. I think I cut a lino to use, and inked it with fabric paint. I stamped it after it was pieced. That black and brown is discharged fabric, using branches as the resist.
