The first photo is a piece of the painted tissue paper that I had done earlier and I attached it to black felt with vliesofix.
Where the tissue had holes in it and the vliesofix showed through I added some rust foil.
I love the look of this piece.
The next one is another piece of painted tissue attached to felt as above and I machine stitched on some strips of painted paper and appliqued them to the tissue base.
I then gave it a coat of Acrylic wax.
The last one has a base of silk cocoon strippings stitched to black felt and I then added some one inch tiles made from a left over from the above piece.
I love this piece.

Lovely pieces Doreen,those colours are so rich. I'm looking forward to seeing dale's 'Ratty tatty papers' talk at the AQC in Melbourne next week.
These pieces are really fabulous, Doreen, I love the colours and shapes, perfect combination, glad you remembered to post them :-)
I love this piece too! Like the colors very much and the inchies give it a playful look.
P.S. Did yo paint/dye the cocoon strippings yourself?

Beautiful papers Doreen,is it an on line course ?
Doreen These are really beautiful. The colours are really lovely and particularly like the one with squares on it. The patterning of the background and the squares on top works really well. Suzann e
Yes Doreen these are very attractive pieces. I love to see all the experimental work out there. It's never-ending the textile field.
Wonderful Wonderful Wonderful! That first one would make a soooper pc for next month's CG!

Your Ratty Tatty paper pieces are lovely Doreen and the colours are gorgeous. Thankyou for your kind comment and good wishes - I will be happy to swap an ATC with you. If you email me: hpmartin@uwclub.net with your address I will send one to you.
Wow - Doreen - these are ALL gorgeous!! Absolutely adore the colours you've achieved in that first one.
PS Love the card you made in the previous post - very elegant!
Your ratty tatties look like they were fun to create ... to experiment with those combinations of out of the box materials.
They look great Doreen. I like your new look blog too.
