Scrap advocate
I really do think it is important to keep a scrap of fabric near by your work table. When you have scrap at the ready you can try things out without going straight to your 'good' work. You don't know how many times I just went right into my good piece, then had to compensate for my exuberance.
So this scrap was made as a result of wanting to check out my deconstructed screen print.
But once I had that scrap hanging around my work space, I had to keep working it. I call these my rags. Pretty rags indeed.
I am giving away my own hand printed cloth if you become a facebook fan of Inspired to Quilt, please do! I am going to be hosting a challenge through the site soon.
Spectacular rag - hope to see it in a week?
