Here is what a non-sewing scrapbooker does with fabric (and ribbon)...
Now I have to give a small warning... These can be a bit frustrating until you get the hang of twisting and sticking as you go, but once you get the hang of it, they are a little addictive. I had intended to make one or two out of fabric, but ended up making several, some made with seam binding ribbon as well! Between the fabric flowers and the Vintage Flowers embellishments, there is quite a bit of texture on this page. This might have posed a problem if I was going to put it in an album, but I decided this one will be going in a 12x12 shadowbox frame, so 'lumpiness' will not be an issue! Oh, it's not showing up in the picture, but my cardstock base is textured too!
You still have time to play along with us and link up your creation with texture! Hope to see you there!!

What a beautiful layout Margaret. I do the same thing with my fabric pieces. Although I think I need to learn how to make some yo-yo's with it too.
ReplyDeleteYour twisty flowers are fabulous Margaret and what a lovely memory this will be in your shadow box.

ReplyDeleteSooo pretty!! I have some fabric to make some of those rolled flowers, but I haven't done it yet.
ReplyDeleteWhat a neat handmade touch Margaret, these are lovely. I love strong women because they keep the world going lol. Down south they are called Steel Magnolias and believe me they are tougher than any macho guy. {*wink*}
ReplyDeleteLove it!! Really love what you did with the fabric! adds a nice touch!
ReplyDeleteEverything about this project is absolutely lovely, Margaret ! I think once your sisters and mother see it, they will want one of their own =)
