Week #10, catch up from Heather Thomas

 

Good Morning,

Here is my piece for week #10.  It features two pieces of hand made paper that I made on Saturday in a class with one of our instructors, Deb Determan.  The pulp was loaded up on the screen then I spray painted a base coat of one color then laid down some textural stencil like objects and spray painted again with a second color.   After the papers were dry I removed them from their screens and laid them out on a bright spring green and ironed them down with Misty Fuse.  I layered it up with batting and backing and lightly quilted the paper areas then quilted the background.  It is fun to know how well the paper stitched up.  I plan on doing a few more paper/fabric pieces.
