Angie Hughes course--Fabric tags and block printing










On Angie's course we learnt how to use the printer to transfer backgrounds onto fabric, and words onto tape, which we could then use on our tags.
The first day we tackled fabric tags, and I started two. One was a conventional shape and the other a house shape. The finished ones above are the conventional ones. The house shaped Indian ones will be on a later post. I decided to do vintage (no surprise there) as I had plenty of images I had printed onto fabric, and enough lace to make it worthwhile. The ones that are landscape measure 7" x 4", and the smaller portrait ones 6" x 3" I am waiting for some large eyelets to come before I can put the larger one together.
I will blog the printed fabric in with the Indian tags.

4" x 4" pages



I have a 4 x 4 obsession at the moment, and have been doing quite a few chunky books for swaps. These are for a private swap, and as my friend loves vintage, that's the main theme of these three. They are collaged, with bits of lace,bows and flowers added.
