I'm still working on Shelley's mug rug. Tonight I should use the textile medium on the back of the butterfly fabric. After that dries I can try and put it all together.
Last night I put the textile medium on the fiddlehead. I almost had a heart attack when all of the black from the sharpie looked like it faded it. It came back after it dried though. I haven't diluted the textile medium so perhaps I should be? Dee or anybody else out there who has worked with this stuff before can comment on it please?
Tonight I will take the fiddlehead and put it to the test. I use, and I can see some of you cringing when you read this, regular dish soap and hot water in the kitchen sink when I test for bleeding. I figure if it's not going to bleed then or little bleeding it should be pretty much safe for others.
I will put in a color catcher when I ship the mug rug to Shelley though in case she wants to use it. LOL. I think I will be stitching around the S (no small circle stitching though) and that might be it before I sandwich it.
Well the bossman has been in my office twice now since I've been typing this. Think it's a hint?
Until next time.....
