    I miss the spectacular Australian fiber and textile artists we had in the 1990s. They were the world's best in wearable art, heirloom sewing, quilting and machine embroidery. They also published the finest in specialty fibercraft magazines and books. Sadly, all of that is long-gone. However, my fabulous Bernina 1030 with its huge accessory collection still looks and runs like new.

    Very interesting process you've come up with. I like how clearly you describe it. I use leaves to print resist on silk, then dye over them. You could then cut them out and stitch a border. I noticed that like me, your video shows your work, with a narrative describing what people need to know.

      +Karytsa Ioanna Thank you so much! I tried translating from Greek on my computer (from looking at it, I thought that was the right language) but all the translator came up with was nonsense!! I really appreciate your comment - and I do really love getting comments in other languages - I a big fan of languages, but it helps if I know what it means!!

    Hallo really lovely idea. I‘ ve a question. What is the name from the issue/ paper behind the organza? Thanks a lot for the inspiration! 🌺❤️🍀🌷petra

    • @DeborahWirsuTextileArtist
      @DeborahWirsuTextileArtist  6 років тому

      I'm using a water-soluble stabiliser, which comes in a few different types, some a little like soft paper or fabric, others like plastic. They dissolve in water after you've finished stitching.

    how do you do trapping with organza does anyone know a video link? or any techniques

      Can you explain what you mean by 'trapping', please? thanks.

    • @hollyahs9769
      @hollyahs9769 7 років тому

      Hi, I'm currently studying textiles at an AS Qualification in the uK and I've been looking at textiles artwork in Pinterest and I came across a technique where you essentially sandwich two pieces of organza together where you then place your item of choice in-between allowing the organza to trap the item

    • @hollyahs9769
      @hollyahs9769 7 років тому

      I hope that helps I'm not particular sure weather or not its the right technique or name for the process but I googled trapping and went on to images and I found it /: ( hope this helps thank you **)

      Thank you - the back and front of these bookmarks look almost the same - the only variations that occur are due to variations in thread used in the top and bobbin on the machine.
