Monday 1 August - Day 15

I’ve had some beautifully plush cotton upholstery fabric for a while and have been reluctant about printing on it for fear of ruining the fabric but I finally coated some up with cyanotype solution last week and got the chance to expose the print this morning (using tree peony leaves). At first I wasn’t sure and thought the fabric might be too thick but as the day has gone on, I love the results. I’ve not made it into a cushion yet, I just draped it over an existing one to see how it would look but I’ll definitely be printing some more using this cotton and making more cushions- it feels very luxurious!
