Sheer pocket quilt and other unrelated stuff katelnorth 2007

I was hand dying some fabric, and tried to "sunprint" the needles on the fabric, but it didn't come out too well.

Remember this sunprint piece from a few days back?

Decided to take my idea of using the sunprint piece as a background for something small but interesting, and went with it (I am trying to be a bit braver and just go for it when I have an idea, instead of analysing it to death and/or putting it aside for when I "am better at X").

The picture with the 6 inchie faces will be well received I'm sure and sunprint portrait is awesome - well done!

When I sunprint in the oven (which unfortunately, I've had to result to too often lately, due to English weather) I use a fairly low oven - around 100 C - and what I do is set the timer for 15-20 minute intervals so I can check if the pieces are dry or not and turn them over, if that's what I want.

The kids did some pieces too (of course - can't possibly sunprint here without the kids getting involved), photos of which are on the family blog.

First I heavily quilted the sunprint using a pale blue thread, then I added the centre - a black rectangle with a blue rectangle and a face, with some yarn as hair (technically, I planned the centre before I did the quilting of the background, but in terms of actually putting it together ...)

Just two things to show today - the start of another little piece which will have faces on it in some manner - like the blue sunprint, only different.
