I have been having fun working with my rusted fabrics, mainly because those are the fabrics I brought with me in my temporary quarters, waiting for our new house to be finished! Everything else is in storage. On this one, I used some turquoise with the black and I really like the contrast. I placed some bronze mesh on the top and hand stitched it all together. The black dots are french knots, not beads.
This postcard was inspired by a friend, Jill, who does a lot of fabric weaving. I used only rusted fabric and black cut in half-inch strips. I find it effective, and will be doing some more weaving in the future.
