First up we are using foil and I have been foiling everything in sight.
First up is a croched doiley that I dyed last year when we were dying fabrics for the exhibition.
I like the way that the gold foil has stuck to some of the raised sections adding hilites to the piece.
This piece of fabric is from a blouse and was tossed into the dyepot at the same time.
I only foiled two of the leaves and I rather like the effect.
Here we have a piece of Panne Velvet that I placed a stencil on top of and sprinkled Audrey's Bonding powder over it-then removed the stencil.
Next I placed the foil over it and ironed it.
I think that I will stitch around the edges at a later stage.

The piece of velvet is my favorite. This looks like an amazing technique. I look forward to see what other things you do in this workshop.
Love your foiling experiments Doreen. I like the way the foil picks up the raised areas on the second piece and your doiley looks gorgeous - great colours.
Great experiments. I never thought of the stencil idea and will try it.
Very nice results! I haven't tried foiling, but it certainly is effective.
I like your experiments with foil and dye - I like to see what others do!
These are so gorgeous Doreen
