Rusting

I want to use rusted fabric as the base layer for my section of the Designing Women piece for the WAFTA exhibition. I had a piece, but I didn't think it was rusted enough, so I wrapped up some washers in it and used a rusty tray to rust it further. This is the result.

While I quite like it, it seems a bit too structured for the piece. I started another bit this afternoon.


This is fabric just scrunched in the tray. I may add some strong tea in a day or so.
