Week 46

I have veered away from my fall color jag, and moved onto rusted fabric. This piece uses fabric I rusted (the background fabric has writing on it naturally) which is placed onto black fabric.  I then added a rectangle of black fabric with decorative stitching.  The smaller rectangles are hand stitched (BTW, it is very difficult to hand stitch thru rusted fabric; glad I didn't do more hand stitching, my fingers wouldn't have lasted much longer!) onto that. 

The white written fabric is cut using pinking sheers and I used scrap book copper brads to hold down the squares.    The whole piece is glued to stabilizer.
