To keep myself busy while I decide on a another large project, I spent about 3 hr this afternoon putting together a forest scene using organza. I love the way the layers change their colours and intensities.
I had been thinking about the onion dyed pieces of silk, a piece of which I used in the Cave Bear. I though it would be a nice colour background for this one.
To maximize its colour I laid it directly on white batting, and then started layering about 10 different colours of organza ranging from lime green through to purple and black.
I used some slivers of cotton for the tree trunks.
A layer of netting and pins and it ready to finish.
