| Newly printed fabric drying |
 |
| More fabric drying |
These are the fabrics I printed using some of the fabric I showed
last time - I have used fabric paints to print these. I wanted to collect together some samples using different types of print media ready for a print workshop I am giving later in the year.
 |
| My print board |
I just love the patterns collecting on my large print board. It gets more interesting each time I use it. The small board wasn't required this time since I was working outside. However, that is collecting some interesting patterns too.

| Printed dyecatcher which had been used to clean up after another dyeing workshop. |
 |
| Another printed dyecatcher. Having a paperlike texture, they print really well. |
 |
This piece had been printed before being dyed.
I have added the same design over the top using a thermofax. |
I really enjoyed the session and managed to print quite a few pieces, The last one shown above is one of my favourites since it is going to be such a useful background for something one day.

| Humphrey |
I need to introduce Humphrey, a small dog made during a short workshop with Alsager Creative Stitchers. Such fun. Rosemary, who lead the session made a small butterfly for each of us to attach to our little figures. You can see the other creatures
here.
 |
| That butterfly. So sweet. |
Humphrey is barely 2.75inches tall (7.5cm) and the butterfly is just one inch (3cm) wingtip to wingtip.

| Rowan Apache |
At the meeting I was asked if I could complete this project - the design is called Apache and is by Sarah Hatton for Rowan. The yarn is Summer Tweed. Since the back had been completed and the two fronts only needed a little alteration before completion, it really didn't take long to complete. The top is now finished and ready to be returned. Hopefully, I should be able to hand it over next week.
