  2. Are you planning on connecting all the found pieces into one collaged piece? Or really haven't given it that much thought yet?One year I collected "stuff" found on the street and made a collage. Never found any cloth though, but I live outside a small town

  3. Hi Helen, and yes, I'm working with these for the little foraged cloth I'm making. This hairy little one is already in there, and the previous sheet, and one cloth I didn't put up here yet.

  4. Hi Gracie, Thanks for coming over to my blog. The resist I mentioned ..is paint. I have dropped paint onto the cloth first and then I have rusted it. The paint will hold the rust but I also intend to soak this in some walnut ink and the paint will repell the ink. I'll keep posting photos as I go. I realize that this may prevent sewing onto but that was never my intent. I simply wanted to create a large piece. I love your blog and all the rag a day posts and everything in between!!!
