Quilted cotton.

At last I had some time today to take some pictures of what I have been working on for a while now. This piece is printed on cotton that I dyed a light grey. I then backed it with a piece of fleece and quilted it. The initial idea with this (and subsequent pieces) was to create an item that provided some form of comfort, perhaps a cushion cover even? I am trying to think of what to do, though, and how best such an item would be exhibited. For now I am leaving it as it is, and I am just going to try and get as much printed as possible while I have access to the college facilities.

tests

I finally got round to putting a couple images on a screen. I have another image to sort tomorrow. The three will then fit together. These were just test prints on to paper, and there were some places that needed filling. I'm hoping it will print up well tomorrow, all going to plan.
