Dear Readers
I think you all know about my passion for
creating with vintage textures, textiles, fabrics and laces
well just a quick post
to show you a few I have on my work table
at the moment!
I've started the new year naturally
with creating journals and this is a glimpse of the
next one I have on my desk!
These two images are from the new book which is
a WIP so I won't spoil your viewing
yet!
and these are a few items I have used to date!
♥♥♥
Also on my table are these glorious silks and doilies which
have been plant dyed!
as well as some papers which I dyed at the same time!
Look at the beautiful soft colours
and
impressions from the plants!
The little artworks below are some which
I created from these
which
have now been sold!
That beautiful rose image was created by saving
the actual rose from the dye bath which
had been flattened in the plant press.
The wet result was still so beautiful that I decided
to photograph it and print it out onto handmade paper
so this then became the focal point of the
artwork!
It was a rare opportunity which I took advantage of!

Oh Suzy, such lovely stuff. Here I have just been shopping, I found it so tiring as I am obviously not over this wretched shingles. You lovely 'stuff' was such a joy to look at.
ReplyDeleteSuzy, your eco dyed paper and fabrics are beautiful. The rose from the dye bath is quite unique, and the artworks you made from it are a fitting tribute to its beauty. I am always astounded by your productivity and its quality. Hope you are enjoying the more gentler weather. Sending love,

What a wonderful share Suzy, I love those muted colours created from your plant dyes. I'm particularly taken by the aubergine, I recently used some black carrots to dye some natural calico it left the the most amazing colour!!
ReplyDeleteYour created artworks are so beautiful a delight to our eyes, I eagerly await to see what you create with those extra's.

I need to make time to try new things like you. How gorgeous your colors are.
ReplyDeleteLove Love Love Suzy.
Suzy, what your creative mind accomplishes through the work of your lovely hands can take my breath away. The incredible, touchable colors you achieve and the way you manipulate fabric ever artfully is like no other. Your compositions need no explanation, they speak or sing at the moment you give them life.
ReplyDeleteYour work is "candy for the eyes", and inspirational.
