This is a post I originally posted on creating string art on fabric....and this is the post using the string art fabric in a quilt!
I started out using a glass plate (8 1/2 x 11") which I covered the background in acrylic blue paint. I used some old Setacolor metallic gold paint to soak the string in and then placed on top of the background. And the process began!
This was the first string art I created and printed on layout paper. Not bad...the paint was really thick so I was blotting with deli paper(s).
blotting above print!
I continued to use the deli paper(s) to blot up excess paints.
Next I got out my 5 x 7 gelli plate....and here are the results!
These aren't that bad......
This was the last print I did and the best one!! Who knew! Hope I can use these papers in my collage work with Hilary's class!
If not, they might make nice fiber card once stitched.
Well you're at it again- that string art thing is really interesting. Never a dull moment in your studio! While one thing is batching, another is happening.
