A friend's show and tell

I mentioned in my last post I had some buds up to do beading.  One of the ladies, Beth, brought some great show and tell for us!  So I guess I could have called this post BETH's Show and Tell!  Beth was playing with layering some 'ugly' fabrics (her name for them!) using stamping and stenciling.    I think they are each unique . Sit back and enjoy the show!
Beth carved the leaf stamp she used in this piece.
This was stenciling on top of stamped work

Colors are great on this 'ugly background.  How cool is this!











This is a quilted piece Beth did a few years ago.  It's fabulous in person!  She added all the beads by hand.





This is another stamped fabric Beth sewed on to the front and back of this bag.

 The center piece was discharged with a tree stencil, paint added and Beth made all the beads and attached to the black bag.  Some of the beads were given to her and some she made.  Cool!






This was a Cyano fabric Beth stenciled.  It is so crisp and just beautiful!



Hope you enjoyed seeing some of Beth's work!
