Below is another picture of a group of ladies I am clueless about. They just looked happy and interesting.
Photos of years gone by are rarely perfect. Over exposure, someone's head cut off or an unfortunate pose.Once again I did my manual photo shop.
The lady in the foreground had to go. (Sorry)
As you can see, she's been cut away and I have painstakingly cut out pictures of various types of coffee cups and glued them where I wanted them to go. Because of the overexposure, I had no idea what polka dot dress lady was so surprised about, so I decided to make it her birthday. With the coffee pot, I had to put a candle flame underneath and put coffee in the coffee pot...so I used colored pencils.
The fabric, I purchased at Hobby Lobby.Things don't always go as planned. As you can see, the picture has a pinkish tinge to it.
Note to self: Always check the ink cartridges before printing
The solid brown fabric is an organza type.I used the transfer iron-on paper and then used iron-on vinyl to make the picture water proof.
I sewed the sides up using a blanket stitch and embroidery floss.
Here is the finished result. It is kept closed by velcro as you can see in the first picture of my post.I will continue to practice until I get things the way I'd like them. So you'll be seeing more of these.
THAT'S IT ***
