Don't you think?
Once home, I washed and pressed my samples, again who thought ironing could be so pleasurable?
and created my shibori wall to show you my day's efforts!
The disc pattern is created with a circle wood block pressed onto the fabric with a small g clamp...easy! |
Wooden cloths pegs for the squares and string, make these patterns! |
A square wood block! |
String and the fold of the fabric created the wheat effect! |
I fitted in a spot of thrifting in brunswick! Nioce Bitossi! |
If there's a class near you, then GO!!!!!

Oh, my...Pippa, that's gorgeous!!! I'm absolutely in love with every piece you made. If I ever find a class near me, I'm definitely going, and I know my daughter will want to go too.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Shibori Pippa, I can't get my head around how you came up with that incredible wheat effect...and it's going to look even more sensational with the addition of a bit of macrame. And a Botossi 'basket' how about that!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I keep forgetting to say I love the pic of the happy little trio in the top right-hand corner of your blog x
I learnt how to do shibori in my first year of my degree but mine didn't look nearly as beautiful as yours! Congrats :) x
ReplyDeleteThanks TM, I'm busy thinking how best to use them, so then I have an excuse to do shibori again!
ReplyDeleteI hope you find a place Dana, it would be a great class to share with your Daughter!
Thanks Kylie, the pic was our family first! We were/are proud parentals! xx
Oh Polly I can't believe that! But thanks for the compliment, all a fluke! :)
Lovely! You are so clever. The wheat effect is amazing. Can't wait to see what you do with them!x
ReplyDeleteI KNEW YOU WOULD KILL ME WITH THESE! I love them so much. They all turned out so well. I bet ironing these was a JOY! The string patterns are gorgeous. Congrats ... you did so well.
