Thread Painting and Mix Media Challenge.

This will not be a swap with partners this time as the theme is a personal one to you and probably be a keepsake that you wish to treasure.

SUBJECT.

" A Personal Childhood Memory."

Not many rules.

You have from now until July 1st to get your piece finished.

The piece will have with it a short paragraph of what the piece means to you, no names as the one judging will only know by a letter I assign. It must have THREAD PAINTING on, but it can also have mixed media and be no larger than 12 x 12

If you have any questions please ask away.

I will put people names up when they let me know if they are interested.

I know some already have but hopefully they won't change their minds when they read this.

Ally Bryant.

B.J.

Brenda

Gwen

Terri

Please let me know if I have missed someone as I don't have the screen up of TP and I am sure there was others. I will go back in and add.

Yes I see Charlotte and also Sharon. And have Linda, Cindy and Sandy to add also.

Can anyone suggest how I get back in and add as it won't let me do that, maybe I am doing something wrong.

can you do the thread painting by hand ?

I would think that would be more like embroidery, but after seeing portraits a woman did by hand, it's hard to say what the difference might be. I thought hers were done on the machine until they showed the back of her portraits. They were almost as good as the front.

I have seen some done by hand. I don't think it is a hard fast rule (at least not for our group) that you must use a machine to do it.

okay, I will give it a try on the machine, then will see how it looks.
