This week we were doing woven strips.
The first sample is made with strips of sari silk and other silks embellished onto a fine pre-felt fabric called Embellisher Bundles from the Thread Studio.
After the strips were embellished down we had to cut them up and then place them in a mosiac design which was then embellished in place-- I added strips of silk thread in a grid to complete it.
In the next sample I have woven Funky Felted yarns with a felted wool yarn -embellished it and added some hand stitching.
The third sample is silk Slushies on the pre-felt fabric and hand stitching.
Finally this piece is from the same sample piece as the previous one but this time I also embellished lightly from the reverse side which brings the base colour through to the front .
So much fun and there's still more to come.
