Lots of cutting, sticking and sewing.





I spent a crafty weekend of cutting, sticking and stitching stuff together and one of the things I completed was this small wall hanging. It features a beautiful photograph which was offered by Gothic Arches to use as part of this weeks challenge. I decided to do something totally different and printed it out onto ink jet acetate and using gel medium transfered it onto fabric. I put it together with some pieces of fabric and book page, made a flower with a strip of cotton fabric and an overlay which I bought at the Dortmund craft fair on friday. Lots of sewing with the machine and some lace and voilĂ .
