Burned Out at Bassingham

Yesterday we had a day experimenting with the soldering iron. Amazing results again. And so different, given everyone starts at the same place with the same technique. I do look forward to these workshops and watching everyone experiment.

I shouldn't have used the flasn on the camera as it's distorted the colours, but you get the idea.

Zena used a chicken wire mesh to get these designs


Val used a coin - must be careful, metal gets very hot! Sorry about the colours, my camera doesn't like pink! The photo doesn't do this one justice.


Sue layers lots of little bits to get an interesting surface.

Pauline has used several layers of organza, scored a grid design with the soldering iron and then made marks in some of the squares.

Kate burned holes in each piece of organza and then piled them on top of each other - nice seeing the ways the colours change as you look into it.

Another piece from Sue - lots of different marks
We were talking about other Blogspots - Maggie Grey's is http://magstitch.blogspot.com/
