quarter imprint
Originally uploaded by Dancing Crow.
Working on homework for my online shibori class last night, I started experimenting with all kinds of tiny things for resists. The ones that made me laugh are the magnets. Since Christmas we have been all magnetic, all the time around here, with three sets of Bucky Balls, a set of tiny powerful rare earth magnets and two new magnet building toys. Then when I discovered that Canadian quarters are magnetic, as well as the washers I was using, there was no stopping me. Except when the magnets attached themselves in ways I didn't want, tangling the fabric.
So - magnets for resists. Also quarters, washers, pennies and bottlecaps (which have a pleasing scalloped edge)
