More Fabric Painting

2/8/2019

Fabric painting has continued this week with even more carefree, even reckless, action than before.  The background here is mostly wet-into-wet direct painting.  This was done in several painting sessions so that the colors wouldn't become muddied. There is quite a bit of hand stamping with stamps I have made.  Some parts of this seems awkward to me, so I may cut and sew to edit them out if I make use of this piece later on.

Uncommon Quilt Square #5
I wanted to continue with the Uncommon Quilt challenge this week, too.  Because I had been thinking about fabric painting I dug into my stash of pieces painted more than a year ago for inspiration.  I selected part of a piece that seemed moderately successful, but not great, just to see what some further embellishment might bring.

I am encouraged to go back to several painted pieces from last week to see what some quilting would do for them.
