Occasional ramblings

Just a few thoughts or notes on ongoing projects.

A bit of bag making

6/10/2018

I was changing the drop cloth on my printing board recently (not very large - about 20" X 30") and thought it was such a waste to abandon the old, saturated one.  

What to do with it?

I washed it thoroughly and decided to make it into a bag.  In fact I had two, so it made sense.

I could have left it there and just made a decent bag, but I decided I felt like painting, so I made pockets from painted panels of shoes - nothing new, just copies of four of the pairs of shoes on my "In These Shoes?" quilt.  

​The results are ......... different?!

Fun day at Ardington - Linocut with watercolour

6/6/2018

I spent a lovely day at Ardington last week, with my friend Claire Passmore.  We went to a class taken by Jessica Rose who is a linocut artist and teacher.  She had developed a new way of colouring a linocut.

We printed our cut blocks onto a special, thin, japanese paper and mounted this over watercolour paper which we had painted with blocks of colour - great fun and very effective.

Another lovely group of ladies at the workshop last week.  We were doing a "paint and stitch" day.  Some very original ideas and a lot of talent.
