Water Soluble Frenzy

Gripped this weekend by a frenzy of designs inspired by water;...the ocean...blues & greens...and water soluble stabiliser.

 I made a bowl by sandwiching fleece and threads between two layers of water soluble fabric, free motion stitching to cover the fabric, running the design under a hot water tap to dissolve the plastic and then stretching over a bowl and left to dry.

The design reminds me of something that you would pick up off the ocean floor. I love the translucency of the finished bowl.


Also tried another experiment by using water soluble stabiliser to make an edging on a piece of cloth.
