Full Bloom - Quilting Detail The flower stencil was created by deconstructing a Rose of Sharon flower and making a stencil of each piece. The flowers were stenciled using Speedball ink. |
Full Bloom - Flower Detail The texture in the leaf was created by placing a discarded onion bag behind the stencil and using a Shiva paint stick. |
What types of things have you stenciled to create unusual textures?! Do share....
