I finished painting on the cotton duck cloth that I showed you the other day. In my excitement to make something with it, I forgot to take a photo of the entire piece of cloth when it was dry.
I made this market tote, also known as a green grocery bag because they are reusable. The pattern I used to make this bag is a free pattern called Fat Sack by Terry Atkinson. Click here to see Terry's web site.
I'm currently in the process of making a couple other bags from the remaining painted cloth. I'll share those when I finish. Here is what remains of the cloth. This gives you an idea of the overall painting I did. I might be able to make one more small item with this remaining piece....hopefully!


Love this!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous colors Terri - I like the part about letting the piece speak to you. I need to learn to do that more -- good inspiration.
