OK - I confess.......I've been playing with calico and fabrics again and made another wallhanging!! This one uses an Artistic Outpost stamp from the fab set - The Outpost (buy in the UK from Happy Daze).
I coloured some calico using alcohol inks and then stamped the image using black Stazon ink. This was then sewn on to a felt background which, in turn, was placed on to a piece of frayed raw silk. I added some hand sewing around the edge of the felt using some hand-dyed rayon thread.
I made the backing piece by "quilting" some cotton fabric with layers of felt in between and randomly sewing together.
The actual hanging part is some twill ribbon that had wording printed on but I sewed some satin ribbon over this to cover it.
