I finished my class on Printing the Journal. I really enjoyed it. I learned that it is best if you can concentrate on the class and have life grind to a halt while you do so. Ha! That isn't going to happen. Normal in my life is 'anything' can happen at any time. lol Especially when life certainly has a tendency to 'happen!
I do like the instant gratification that comes with paper and paint. But my first luv is fabric and thread and I need to
I need to make that a goal for an upcoming quarter. Goodness knows I have enough books on the subject! And thread. And fabric!!!
I did learn in class that screen printing, which was one of the techniques, is first and foremost suited to fabric. SEW...
I have had paper and paints on my work table pretty much these last couple of weeks so it is time to spread out the fabrics and do some mark making with thread!
Perhaps I can use my new pocket journal to record notes on fabric and thread in mixed media. :^)
And perhaps The Needle and Thread Network will have lots of inspiration for projects.

Love what you did on paper. Perhaps your enthusiasm for screen printing (or printing of any kind on fabric) will rub off on me...but this summer, I'm exploring dyeing and tsukiniko inks!
I bounce back and forth between fabric and paper. But I sure love those papers. Wish I could get mine to come out as artful as yours. I look forward to your marks on fabric.
I bet it was a fun class. I've been itching to take something for a while but know I've too much on the go.
You have some beautiful pages there! Any of them could be fabric....
Elle your papers are beautiful and look like a wonderful mixed media rainbow. Fabric and Thread will happen. You have finished and accomplished so many things in just a few months. Life does have a way of "happening" without consulting us. Creative Hugs Dear...
Yummy looking pages! Warning! Printmaking can be very addictive, fun, but difficult to stop once you get started.
