I love the idea of wearable art and have a plan to do stamping on a garment at some point but don't have anything that I dare to attack just yet.
So, here is a necklace that I made....it reminds me of a dribble bib and as I am nearer to my dotage than to my childhood then I fear that it may come in handy too soon! Should I make another one I will cut into the shape and make it less bib shaped!
I started by drawing a shape onto doulble calico, Gessoing and painting with fresco paints.
Next, stamped with Ellen Vargo leaf stamps in black archival. I free machined over the shapes with black cotton....I am showing the back so that you can see the patterns.
I attached some Sari silk for ties and embellished the pattern with Stickles in various colours.
So, there is my necklace/ dribble bib! Thanks for looking!
I am entering this into the Paperartsy challenge.
Well I've never heard of a dribble bib before, so thanks for sharing that snippet of information! Love your free machine sewing, it looks great and the stickle look like beads xxx
