Friday Catch Up - 21st February 2025

Friday Face Off

Faces painted on fabric with Inktense blocks and pencils. It's quite difficult to paint on fabric because if the paint is quite wet, it spreads and if it's too dry it doesn't cover. The first picture is my mum from a few years ago. The others are random faces I found on the net.

Toucan

I copied an image from a brochure onto fabric and painted it with Koh-I-Noor watercolour paints. Then I used enhanced it with freehand machine stitching.

Butterflowers and WIP

I drew the flowers and butterfly on fabric with a pen, painted them, cut them out and stuck them to a re purposed  hankie. Then I enhanced with running stitches - thread not drawn on.

I think this one looks better in real life.

I'm working on a bigger piece, bet you can tell what it is.

Scribble on Fabric

I was having a play about with inktense blocks on fabric.

I may embroider it in the future.
