Mixed Media Mandala
Even though I have two other mandalas I am working on I have started a third. I can work on more than one at a time. That's not a problem. The ideas aren't flowing so easily for the other two and I refuse to sit around doing nothing waiting for the ideas to come. I am confident the right ideas will come eventually. So this mandala was started with an experiment. I wondered if paper could be trapped in Angelina fibres. I cut a kirigami shape and sandwiched it between the Angelina fibres and then ironed it all together. It works great. I have stitched that to some lovely dupioni silk. I now intend to create a very textural mandala. I have to go through my stash to find the right beads etc. That is always fun! I am linking to http://ninamariesayre.blogspot.com/
