Fabric or Fibres

Plastic week one, Corrugated Card week two, Metal week three - bet everyone was wondering what 'material'  Zoe would come up with this week and here we are with Fabric or Fibres for the Challenge on Just for Fun.  Am sure peeps will find this a much easier one than the others were although "Metal" attracted lots of entries and we are all delighted with the entries we are getting.  Thank you one and all.

Here is mine - a bit of bleaching on stamped fabric:


As you can see the fabric has been stuck onto a piece of card (in my usual wonky fashion) and some of the threads I pulled out have been made into a tassel.

I have a lovely card - well I think it is lovely but maybe it won't show up on here, the material is gorgeous - that I once did with Paddy.


This is a padded card and I am sure we must have used Stuart Gill paints and that the fish was a stencil.  The material is very silky and it has a slub in it which looks like the movement of water with the splashes of green and blue paint I have used.

Do you remember the dumfing I was doing and how I used tiny bits to make squares into kites?  Well I still have those at home and so I am including them again in this post so I can send them off for swaps to Zoe and one has gone to Sam who is always sending me things.

Right off now, things to do and hope that lots of you will enter our Challenge with either Fibres or  Fabric, or maybe both.
