Work in Progress Wednesday

 I haven't posted about my highly textural mixed media and stitch book for a while.  These pictures are the front, middle and back of one page.  They could use some more work but they are getting closer to what I want.  I used some gorgeous linen sample fabrics for my pages as the colours were just right.  I am now a bit regretting using so much mixed media on them.  The mediums have made the pages a bit stiff which I don't mind for a book.  However, the linen no longer has the lovely drape and probably would have been better used in a project where I want that drape.   I have been watching some Ariane Zurcher videos on Youtube and she uses linen masterfully.  I believe I have a large piece of linen in my stash somewhere that was gifted to me.  If I recall correctly is not a colour that I would normally use.  Since I have been doing some snow dyeing it would make sense to dye some of that linen so that it is more useful to me.
