here is some more of my fabric and thread painting work



I got very interested in thread painting and also decided to fool around with photo shop and the first picture is a result.  All these are l2" square pieces done on heavy web (timtex)  Such fun!

I will be going back to doing these after Christmas once my knitting projects are finished.

Hi Shirley, your work is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! Will you ever teach on making wall quilts and fabric or thread paintings?

Shirley,
I followed a link here from KP. Your quilts, knitting and crocheting are beautiful but I am totally floored by the landscapes done with the thread painting. They are fantastic. You are a true artist....
