More QSDS Fun and Creativity

Day four has come and gone, and day five is beginning..... As promised, I have a few photos to show today.

Here is an updated shot of my design walls. Yesterday began as another hot, sunny day so I decided to do up another deep blue piece of fabric with sunprints. It was later in the day than I usually get good results, but as you can see, it worked! I think I will be playing with more single color sunprinting instead of my usual ones like the pieces in the pastel colors to the left, where I combine many colors. With the single colors, the sunprints tend to be more of the focus without the distraction of the color patterns.

When painting our fabrics, we have been encouraged to just paint with no thoughts, just make fabric.... Well, I have a bit of trouble sometimeswith that, and tried this piece with the trellis cut out of contact paper and placed on the canvas before adding the colors. This may be sitting waiting for a while tofigure out just what it will become.

This is just the blue grouping I put together yesterday. I had painted the lighter blue piece upper left after I realized I had created the perfect shade to coordinate with some of my flower photos. I then had to paint a darker piece, which is folded and pinned in the middle, then the sunprinted piece in the same deep blue, but with the prints for some different texture. After these photos were taken, I printed a few more flower photos on cotton, and played with a piece Lutradur
I have had for a long time. I printed flower photos onto a few pieces and the effect is great.
