I decided to do crinkling (even though I had done it before) because I was too lazy to do all the measuring and stitching involved with the other techniques.
I had a lovely piece of hand dyed silk that I had purchased from the Thread Studio years ago
that was from Colourstreams-the colour is Marakesh but I don't think this is available anymore.
I have silk threads and silk ribbon in the same colourway and these are still available.
The technique was from a book called Texture with Textiles by Linda F McGhee.
I'm not sure what I will use it for but it will have stitching on it.
Don't you just love those colours.

Yes, lovely colours!
Lovely colours and I like Ebony's paper too!
Those colours are gorgeous - so vibrant yet not at all garish. Can't wait to see what you do with it Doreen. The workshop sounds like a good one.
The colours look so inviting and the texture is brilliant.
My colours exactly, I am looking forward to seeing the stitching you do on it. Cheers, Robin
I love the colours...so alive! I must dig out my book to see how you did it,
Fabulous colours. Sounds like a great workshop. How do you crinkle?
Yes, I do love those colors!!
