Fabric prints

I've been playing around with sketches,

colours etc for a couple of weeks now.

Whenever it started to feel like a chore then

 I would attack cupboards, drawers, shelves;

the whole workroom in fact.

I've seen so many gorgeous fabrics

out there - and bought quite a few of

them too - but also thought that maybe

it would be fun to try some designs

of my own.

Now, as yet they are nowhere near

the end stage, but perhaps there's

a better sense of which colours

appeal to me more.

These are the colours that are being used the

most lately (terrible photo using a flash tonight)

and using fine pens, not paint or ink.

But what I like best is that this is actual

fabric!

During one of the clear outs I found a

pack of iron-on transfer sheets.

Really, they're for printing out designs

from a computer, but I decided to give the

pens a go and see what happens.

I love the idea of making up something using

my own fabric - and now it's possible.
