I was able to spend all day to day in a community centre in Manchester at a newly formed local group linked to the Contemporary Quilt Group of the UK Quilters Guild. We played all day at monoprinting. Well, actually most people payed for a couple of hours or so then worked on some sewing they brought but me - not good at stopping! I was having FUN!
Here are a few of my favourites.
If you want to see all the cloth I produced I have put a Flickr set together here of all the dry ones ( the last ones got carried home wet in layers of bin bags and are still drying upstairs. Now I have to make something with them. I already have an idea......

What a spectacular day you had!
Can't wait to see what you do with the fabrics you created. I'm also looking out for news of the next event - which hopefully I'll be free for!
Hi! Helen,
You certainly must have worked all day love all your fabric.
Glad to see you're discovering the joys of working with fabric paint. Great results!
Your fabrics are gorgeous and such variety. Thanks for sharing them.
You have some great fabric there. I like the black and orange combos especially.
You really can't stop can you ? :-))
Just been catching up: how clever are you to make your own fabric? That seals it - I am definitely going to commission you to do a quilt for my hallway.
Gorgeous kitchen!!!!!!!!!
And finslly, congratulations on the Twelve by Twelve book (including Dennis!!)
I love these fabrics!
I've just started doing monoprints on paper, and I'm a beginning quilter too, so of course I want to play at monoprinting fabrics now. May I ask what paint or dye you used?
