Cool Marilyn. It is very similar to halay's, isn't it? The silk paper one is gorgeous. What are your plans for these pieces?

Thanks Ruth. I"m not sure about the second Pollack, but I'm thinking of a wall hanging for the silk paper piece. I'm debating Halay's suggestion for a pillow for the first Pollack piece. That or a wall hanging. The colors are my favorites and match my decor.

Pandagirl, I love what you achieved with your second Pollock--great color combinations! The silk paper is simply beautiful. Another project for my hope-to-do someday list. You have been very busy!

Both pieces are great - I like the way the 'silk hankies gone bad' lift the 'Pollock' and the colour and texture on the silk paper is very pretty.

Wow - although I'm still in Edinburgh I just had to check in, what wonderful work, I just love it all, Luvswool I would have recognised your piece even if you hadn't of named it, that unnamed black wool gives it great texture :-). Marilyn I love your colours, I like to use silks in my work too and throwster tops plus other stuff, it really pops and the silk piece is just lovely - are you going to embellish it ? Halay your pieces are gorgeous I feel all filled up with ideas and can't wait to get going again myself - it's been such a treat to see what everyone has been up to :-) you guys are a complete inspiration

Thanks Carole! I thought at first I would stitch over the silk paper, but I like it the way it is. I may try a sample piece and stitch it first to see the difference. I've never stitched on felt, but have liked some of the pieces I've seen other forum members have done. I have a feeling you'll be really busy when you get back. Enjoy,

Carole, So great to hear from you! Would love to hear about your trip…I have traveled in Scotland and adored every moment! I suppose you plan to scoop up some wool while you are there?
