Material Musings - Fabric Art Cards

 

Check out the Video

Welcome to Material Musings, In todays episode we look at ways that you can use your fabric scraps and create a series of fabric cards.  

By stitching your scraps of a base fabric, adding decoration and stitched words you can make use of the scraps and turn them into something useful.  You could also make things like placemats, coasters, covers for art journal and more.

With the addition of stitched words you can further add to your pieces.  You can also add a small woven piece to add to your fabric cards.  All of the additional fabric has either been painted, stamped, stenciled or wax resisted. 

Try and experiment and see what combinations you can come up with.

Material Musings - Fabric Art Projects

 

Welcome to today's Material Musings, I am excited to share what I have been working on and learning in my fabric adventure.

I will be sharing some of the fabric art journals that I have been creating and I have made a couple that have been helping me keep my smaller projects and fabric ephemera in some order.

I also finished this fabric dragonfly inspired by a class on Making Zen by Lisa Goddard You can check her out on Instagram Here 

I hope you enjoy the video and check out some of the projects, and get to create some fabric journals of your own.
