LINOCUT

 Went for a Linocut Workshop last week.

This is the result of two-and-a-half hours' worth of fun!

I enjoyed the whole process.

Carving was calming.

Printing was challenging,
trying to get the ink on evenly
and placing the block accurately
to get perfect mirror images.

*****

Went to the art supply store and bought
a set of carving tools and linoleum blocks.

With more practice, I may be able
to print something on fabric?

Hopefully.

QUIILTY 365 (Feb 2016)
 
A total of 92 days so far....

I had such fun doing flowers for February!
 
Let me show you:

Week 10

I love this flower ~ I call it mum's flower.
 
She made clothes using polyester
as they freed her from ironing,
her least favourite household chore.

Week 11

I love this flower too!
 
It captures the festive mood as we celebrate Spring Festival.
 
This is my favourite flower in Quilty 365 so far.

Week 12

 This is the family flower.
 
The colours are off.
 
The sheep is on a pastel blue background.
This fabric used to make PJs for a little one.
 
Next to it, pink flowers are on a pale yellow base.
It made a pretty dress with fitted bodice and gathered skirt.

Week 13

This is the leap year flower. 
 
An extra petal for 29 February.
 
One more look at blooms for the past three months:
