I've cut it up and used it to make a bodice and sleeves for a new doll (well, a doll that was in progress from several months ago). Then I added an encrusted piece.
Then I began adding beads to the sleeves.
I worked on this while watching Episode One of Arang & the Magistrate--a romantic comedy about a ghost who has lost her memory and the handsome, but cynical magistrate who can see ghosts--
Arang & the Magistrate is a lot of fun, and I can work on tedious things with pleasure while watching.
Oh. Wow. That is seriously amazing. Took my breath away! Wow!
ReplyDeleteStephie - Thanks! Most of the stuff I do has no real purpose at the time, but eventually, I find a way.

I have several ideas for the encrusted pieces, but I din't know if I'd ever use the manipulated raw silk. It was mostly a form of meditation at the time--now I'll do more!
thats great fabric manipulation and a very smart dolls clothing project!
ReplyDeleteWill bookmark the film link.......it looks really interesting so thanks for that too!
liniecat - Thanks! I'm glad I got to use that piece--it works nicely for the doll's clothing.
ReplyDeleteI think you'll enjoy Arang & the Magistrate!
Already incredible and you're just getting started! Way to knock my socks off!
ReplyDeleteRian - :) You make me feel good about this one! Thanks, Rian.
ReplyDeleteGreat use of the encrusted piece! She looks well-dressed already!
ReplyDeleteNancy - Her dress is much more elegant than her face!
