What We Did With Our Painted Fabric

After painting in our fabric in art class we used thick, colorful string to sew these onto cut pieces of felt and pieces from felted sweaters! Very green ;)

This person made some trivets:

My favorite classmate (my sister) took my pieces of painted fabric, (which I had cut in semi circles) and sewed them into these cool little petals :)

I think I might glue these onto a head band :) ...hopefully I'll post that project's results soon!

Art Class-Week #2: Fabric Painting! (Part 1)

I'm a little late with this blog post-this is what we started on last week in class.  

Last week we started part 1 of a 2 part project.  Part 1: Painting fabric. 

Our instructor asked us to use a plethora of supplies and paints to create interesting patterns on fabric.

 

This classmate painted different spots on her fabric and then folded it over to create a neat kind of wrinkled look.  She told me her color scheme was inspired by St. Patrick's Day!

Another classmate used plastic shapes to stamp on patterns and mix colors.

 

I painted a design on one side of my fabric and then folded it over so that both sides had the same image.  I used a few sharpies to color in some of the white space, and then cut shapes out of my fabric.   

For the part 2 of this project this week we're going to use the shapes we cut out for ..... to be continued ;)
