All my little experiments are dried and ironed and ready for use. Not quite sure what I will use them for but I'm envisioning (with a little more tweaking) that some might end up being barn roofs.
and this one is my favourite...
The first one is from Lillian Carter (mother of President Jimmy Carter)..."Sometimes, when I look at my children, I say to myself, 'Lillian, you should have remained a virgin"
and this one is from Eleanor Roosevelt...."I had a rose named after me and I was very flattered. But I was not pleased to read the description in the catalogue: No good in a bed, but fine against a wall"
That last quote is priceless! Love it. Rusting fabric is something I haven't done. Look forward to seeing what you do with it.
ReplyDeleteOh sweet friend, thanks for the smiles and giggles :) It's always a delight to pop in for a visits! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteLovely rusted fabrics you have created. I am ROFL with this Eleanor Roosevelt quote. Enjoy your barn explorations...<3
ReplyDeleteLOVE that first quote!! I always remember Eve Arden saying to Joan Crawford in Mildred Pearce "alligators have the right idea, they eat their young"! Loving those rusted fabrics. Can't wait to see them in your next barn pretty.
ReplyDeleteNice effect. Was the process easy? Is it set in or does it fade with washing?
ReplyDeleteI've never really read much about rusting fabric.
Thanks for sharing.
Nice results for the rust dyeing. Good idea to use parts of the fabric for the roof.
ReplyDeleteWell, the mind is starting to slip for sure. I saw your link for the tutes for landscape sewing. I know I sat there for 5 minutes trying to remember who was looking for some suggestions. Need I go on?
ReplyDeleteThese are lovely! That's something I haven't tried yet.
