Mixed Media Textile Gifts


I've been working on some gifts for my art group's end of year celebration. These ATCs (above and below) are made from colourful fabric scraps, ribbons, yarn, paper flowers and free machine embroidery.


The ATCs below were made by cutting, fusing and burning felt and organza with a soldering iron and heat gun. The experimental piece with triangles was made the same way.



I have also been working on a book for the gift exchange. The covers are Gelli printed cotton with sequined net and free machine embroidery. Inside the pages are made from more Gelli prints.
