Busy Lizzies and TAST
The Impatiens have been more vibrant than ever this year so I took several photos recently.
Then I jet printed onto a canvas paper as background for a textile postcard and added my next three 2007 TAST stitches, using Perle threads.
29 Arrowhead Stitch,
30 Buttonhole Wheel Stitch,
31 Cast On Stitch,
and a few French Knots.
and a few French Knots.
The canvas paper is substantial, layered on a cotton base, and does not need edge stitching.
I'll be printing more of the photos on the canvas to make into greetings cards - without additional stitching.
Connie I have been reading about printing onto cards and haven't delved into that with this new printing monster. I would also like to learn how to print onto fabric.
ReplyDeleteYour embroidery on the busy lizzies is wonderful
I also like to resist the temptation to look at outher peoples work before i start my stitches and then I think..."
oh wonderful how come I couldn't think of that" lol
Connie, what is Cast on Stitch?

Get that printer going Shirley! I'm not good at printing onto fabric but this canvas paper goes through my printer easily.
ReplyDeleteI mailed you Helga - but I see that you now know the stitch - lovely work as always! Connie.
Lovely work Connie. This canvas paper sounds interesting, I don't think I have seen it before. The stitching onto the photo certainly gives a nice dimension to it. Cheers Dianne.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful,Connie. Where do you get canvas paper from? Doesn't it tear when you stitch on it?
