I've been too busy working to post much. I finished a challenge piece for my fiber pirate group. It is called Beached. Done from an a assortment of stuff with no rules. I like that part. Challenges add such an element of fun. I guess I'll know what they think soon.
I also finished my first postcards based on a photograph of a rock. They are on a base of peach wool. I created fabric using fibers, silk ,wool, on soluble solvy in a hoop. It was cut to fit the image. I added handdyed yarns ans quilted it to tyvek. I hope my partners like them.

I worked on postcards for tsukineko dye blending. These were made of two layers of white cotton PFD . The first was placed in a hoop the second placed loosely over with some shaped wool in between. Then, I embroidered around the shapes, with folds created with the extra fabric. Three of them had batting as well as another layer. Ink was then painted and blended using different brushes. After setting the ink with an iron, they were sewn to a paper backing.
