Colorful morning clothesline. These are done except for the edge finishing and labeling. #inthestudio #wearableart #russlittlefiberartist @artclothnetwork
Spent time this week creating some new photo silkscreens. Today I’ll be getting them ready for printing and mixing up dye in preparation for a couple of busy printing days. #inthestudio #russlittlefiberartist @artclothnetwork
It’s a blustery clothesline day. Scarves with base layers of color getting ready for screen printing. #inthestudio #wearableart #workinprogress #russlittlefiberartist @artclothnetwork
Getting some luscious, complex results from layered wax, dye paint, and low water immersion. #inthestudio #workinprogress #wearableart #russlittlefiberartist
Last of the batch of 5 new pieces fresh off the sewing table. Now to make, attach, and hand stitch the facings for all of them. That’s something like 50 feet in total! #workinprogress #russlittlefiberartist #artquilt
...and another just-quilted piece. One more to go in this quilting blitz. 5 in all. #russlittlefiberartist #workinprogress #artquilt
Another piece just off the sewing table, complete with dangling threads. #workinprogress #russlittlefiberartist #artquilt
Starting on the quilting for the next piece. In case you’re wondering, I’m working on 5 new pieces at the same time. Sometimes that’s just the way it happens. #russlittlefiberartist #artquilt #workinprogess
Another new piece right off the sewing table. #workinprogress #russlittlefiberartist #artquilt
Freshly quilted. Still some hand work to do, plus the facing, but it’s new work! #russlittlefiberartist #workinprogress #artquilt
Day 2 at the Southern Comforters Quilt Guild Show. Yesterday was good, but there’s still a great selection of wearable art scarves on the rack. More info on my website. http://russlittlefiberartist.com/blog/2018/3/8/vending-at-southern-comforters #wearableart #russlittlefiberartist #artclothnetwork

New day; new patters happening on the print table. #russlittlefiberartist #artclothnetwork #wearableart #workinprogress
Later in the day, more color. #russlittlefiberartist #artclothnetwork #wearableart
Beginning to paint new silk charmeuse yardage. #artclothnetwork #wearableart #workinprogress #russlittlefiberartist
Early stage of what might turn into some really cool pocket squares. Thanks @chwritter for the inspiration. #inthestudio #workinprogress #artclothnetwork
Adding a new layer to that “drop cloth” piece. #artclothnetwork #workinprogress #inthestudio
This is a “dropcloth“ of silk charmeuse that was under a painting from a couple days ago. These always make a great starting place for new pieces. #workinprogress #artclothnetwork #inthestudio
