What was your inspiration?

silvery night gardens, I needed a textured background to represent shadowy foliage, lit by the moon.

What are you most proud of?

the pleated and bound (with rubber bands) background is great for my intended use; applique . The fabric i used for the big black moon, was scrunched in a ball and dyed black. As you can see from the detail i've only just started with the fancy garden work.

Gorgeous color plus I love seeing the foiling (or is it textile paint in a metallic?) on the dyed background. The layering possibilities are endless....
