Fabric Swap

Earlier in the year I joined Leslie Keating's handprinted fabric swap.  

I said my preferred colours were: brights - blue, red, orange.

My partners had a range - from any colours, to orange - and paired with pink,  to sorbet colors like mints,pinks,mauves, and green or brown or yellow or orange.

Closeups ...

Handpainted background. The swirls were cut out of freezer paper and then brushed with paintsticks across the edges.

Also handpainted, with quite dark pink/purple and some orange. Then quite thick white paint through a stencil.  Then more white through another stencil. 








Handpainted, left to dry all scrunched up. 

Freezer paper stencil with paintstiks.
