I got some liquid pigments and fabric medium, and got to painting.

Both these patterns were achieved with an old credit card. That was actually fun. Tchik Tchik.

And then, inspired, I used an applicator and thickened dye to draw black lines on a painted background, below. With some “thorns”, no less… Also fun.

Fabric painting is a great way to “disappear into the zone” for a few hours. I don’t have any idea about how to use these painted pieces of yardage. But something will come to me, I am certain…
