Two finished projects and another started!

Details from my finished wall hanging made using experimental pieces of eco/rust dyeing fabric from my stash.......

....I have really enjoyed experimenting with stitches, also added tiny beads to the folded silk strip to add texture....


....added the rusty washer to this....


....appliqued eco dyed leaves...


....added seed stitch to this eco dyed wool using eucalyptus leaves....


....this design was made using pins then sprayed with vinegar/water and left for a couple of days, stitched over the pin marks...


....a piece of old linen with a variety of stitches and a hand made bead added....



...stitch and thread weaving detail....



...rusty nails and washers added to this piece

  1. Wow, love your wall hanging! Makes me inspired to use the cloth I dyed also with rusty items, made a scarf but haven’t worn it cause it feels more like a wall hanging, haha! Love where you live, and I too knit and play with fabric😍
