Jen was playing with strips of fabric one day...she allowed her Dad and I to help.
Fabric is put on two sided adhesive paper and ironed to adhere it. Then they are cut into strips...the other side of the backing is removed and it is put in place on special paper...when it is all done it is put on a canvas. I worked the blues on the right side while Far Guy stripped backing off of strips until his thumbs locked up. (I know from experience that this is painful...but we still had to laugh a bit)I was only the consultant on the next piece.
Both pieces have gone to the shop in Grand Forks. I can play with fabric as long as no sewing is involved!

Very beautiful! The top one is my favorite.
ReplyDeletebeautiful!
ReplyDeleteWow! What an interesting art project.
ReplyDeleteWow! Those are amazing! How beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI get the locking up of fingers too. Funny but not funny.
Those are so unique and beautiful. The flower makes me think of echinacea.
ReplyDeleteWow! Both are gorgeous!! What a fun collaboration that was too.
ReplyDeleteThis is so interesting...I've not heard of this before but I do love the way the material makes such a beautiful piece. A lot of work was put in to this and you all did a stunning job. Looks fun!
ReplyDeleteNow those are both some wonderful no-sewing fabric projects! :)
ReplyDeleteI really like the first one - it's very pretty! What an interesting concept.
ReplyDeleteIt seems you have a creative gene in your family. I like both of these a lot.
ReplyDeleteThese are both beautiful. I'm guessing that neither will last long in the shop. How fun to be able to do it together. Poor Far Guy. I can just imagine both of you laughing at the poor man.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
