Pushing Limits

Although I feel very lucky to have a beautiful, light-filled studio outside my home, sometimes it is just not big enough to fit my projects. Then I have to get really creative! I recently decided the perfect way to get the effect I wanted on a three yard long piece of fabric was to use a flour paste resist. Just a bit of a challenge since my longest table is 6 feet. But I managed by dragging, rolling, hanging, and extending. It turned out great, I’ll get a finished photo up here soon. I will tell you though, the washing out process was a bitch!
