Penelopeslinenloft

Really pleased with how this piece turned out. This is antique handloomed hemp I purchased from Penelopeslinenloft on etsy. Oh, and the cute bit is it's french.
Iron was the mordant and it was simmered over a camp fire. I have no idea which Eucalyptus leaves they were. I try to pickup as silver hued as possible.

Venice Rubbing

Using one of Dale's polymer stamps, I have made a rubbing using the silver sennelier oil pastel. I'll wait for the oil to evaporate before ironing and then use this as a base for my pendant.

Eucalyptus dyed silk, simmered gently in a pot over a camp fire with rusty iron.


A linen blouse, same method, different eucalyptus.


A cardy off to keep Marina warm in Russia. ( Well not that warm- it's cotton)


And a silk slip.
