Is this why I'm stil up at 2:15 a.m. and just getting tired now?
Spent most of the day in my sewing room not sewing but printing. I don't like printing on demand but two venues asked me for samples they can tack up with all my other info for class sign-ups. It just happens that I didn't have anything that would entice anybody to take a class with me, so I carved a few stamps and got busy. IMO, this would benefit with another layer of something, but the class is about carving stamps so I don't want to muddy the waters.
While I was at it, I printed a few more things. Here is one of the perils of buying fabric on the Internet: it often looks different on the website from the reality. I ordered a bolt of fabric for backs that really looked great on the manufacturer's website. Not my cuppa, so I printed on it.
First layer, screenprint with tape; 2nd layer, glue. I like it much better but am deciding what to add, if anything.
Then I was going through a pile of fabrics I had washed and was enouraged to see that one of my demo cloths had good possibilities.
I was thinking about cropping it but I might, instead, add something on the lower right. This is the cropped version.
I love my demo pieces because they are so un-self conscious.
And when you work without intent, amazing things happen: the unconscious leads you where you need to go.
Now my conscious leads me up to bed to battle what is left of the full moon.
