I have recently finished a course in digital imaging. I found it opened a new door for me in crafts.
I thought I could print off some of my altered images and put them in a quilted wall hanging I could just put plain bands in between the pictures. What do you think?
You can see them in Other Crafts on my website. Shirley
Gosh Shirley - the things you get up when we are not looking! And I struggle to do basic 'getting pictures onto the computer in the first place' >g< You would be an inspiration to me, if I didn't get so exhausted just thinking about all you do! . In message , Shirley Shone writes
I used to belong to a UK group who did computer design called Computer Textile Design Group. It is at
and they did a lot of designing using 'played with' pictures.
Val Campbell Harding was a leading light.
This was back in 2001 - I see that are just celebrating the 60th newsletter, so must still be thriving. I joined at a time when I had far too much on my plate and just didn't have time to even read the Newsletter properly, never mind play with the computer. I also didn't have a digital camera then.
Having got the folder out, I think I will have an evening relaxing and reading them tonight! I see there are some quilts in there - It was before I had quilted!
Oh my, Shirley! Those are amazing! I especially like the sunflower in front of the seaside scene, though sunflowers usually aren't my favorite. Just goes to show what a gorgeous job you did on it!
Howdy!
Those are lovely pics and textures, Shirley. Good for you!
I reckon if you put like fabrics together you'll make a very pretty quilt. The pictures on silk could be sashed w/ silk, if you can handle the fabric (or add a stablizer on the back of the fabrics). The cotton pics will work easily w/ cotton sashings. Oh, my, you are full of great ideas! Please keep us informed (& in pics).
Cheers! R/Sandy
I love the sunflower, Shirley!!
