More pieces I made last week .. I have a LOT of these but I won't bore you to death with them. Here's another one made with the mesh without the masking tape grid ... kinda looks like city lights, eh? Plain blue cotton to start.

Then this one is pretty cool - we had a heavy piece of lace and I sprayed painted dye through it (it was plum dye) - then when it was dry I used Dye-na-flow and painted the piece. Basically it's the negative of the lace motif. Ruined it by outlining the flower with foiling. But still fun to do.

This piece I really love - it's another background made with the hardware mesh, but then the roses were screened over it with black transparent paint. I just wish these pieces were big enough to DO something with, lol.
Thanks for sharing these great methods. I can see great potential with using the lace. It's amazing what images the hardware mesh creates.
Thanks so much!
