Fabric Fun



So, I'm taking a textiles class this semester. It's supposed to be about wearables, but right now, it feels like a survey class. We've been watching various demos on various techniques, the first two of which (acid dying and felt making) I've had plenty of previous experience. But last week we covered Thermofax, a low tech silk screen method, and fiber reactive dyes. I've also been messing around with rusting fabric. I don't really know what I'm going to do with all of these test pieces, but I'm enjoying playing around. I really love fabric and always have, but I don't always know what to do with it. Hence, the trying to learn how to sew. Anyways, here's some of the fabric I've altered in the past few days.
