Textile Postcard Project Week #112

November 24th -30th 2019


The colour on this card has probably been applied by ironing on painted vlisofix. It has been finished with machine stitching and the application of a decorative purple thread.



The colours on the card are quite dark and have not photographed clearly, however the close up view is brighter and shows the purple tassel quite well.
