Fabric Book Part 2

Here is Part two 

of my

Fabric Book

today we are working on pages..

I used handwritten antique papers, tea towels and hand dyed 

fabrics, made from old table cloths and cotton scraps..

 

Next time gentle viewers,

 we will collage the pages

with papers and fabrics..

Until then, have fun dying fabrics and stitching them into your

gorgeous covers..

Murder by Tea Dye-Antique Fabric

Ok...

it's sensational I know..

but basically 

I ripped it to shreds..

The murder victim.. an antique tablecloth..

I made a tea bath using darjeeling tea

and Chai for the scent alone...

I pulled it out of the bath...

and decided that I wanted it a bit darker so I bundled it..

with string..

and threw it the bundle back into a pot dye bath and boiled it 

and let it dry...

I love the marks it makes as it dries...

and now I have it all ready for 

my tiny fabric book..

that we will be filming this Friday...

see you all then..

gentle readers..
