After the STITCH CLUB "faces" workshop of Ailish
came the next one by Clarissa Callesen
She is a sculptor and has used many different materials
Now she works with textile.
She demonstrated how to make "potatoes"
Hahaha :
just little (or big) ball-shaped forms of fabric stuffed with fiberfill
but : any other shape was right too !
Because I was busy with something else
it took a while before I could start
but my hands started to itch and I gave it a go
I mostly like to work rather small
so this first one is the size of a brooch (or pendant)
(12 x 5.5 cm)
Fabrics with a different colour scheme are ready for the next one
(((Els))) beautiful textures and forms & a very different colour palette, you are really pushing your edges into beautiful places this year!
BeantwoordenVerwijderen((Mo)) think so too .... and enjoy it VERY much :-)
VerwijderenThis is fascinating!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThanks Angie, many possibilities !
VerwijderenThat's the loveliest "potato" I've ever seen ;-)
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI suspect there are lots of dainty little stitches there. The combination of fabrics is fabulous, and so good to see your work taking new directions but still with the same Els style
((Kat)) thanks ;-)
