Thank you all so much for your kind comments. I do love to do these... well once I'm in the mood.

This one wvdek, was something I digitized and then appliqued' with my machine. I took a crow from somewhere, then a fence and then the pumpkins and put them all together to make this scene. I use regular cheap tea PLain or decaf will work. *LOL* (w/m brand) and alot of it.. then I found the walnut crystals to tea stain with. You only use a bit of these.
Then I just heat up water like I"m making tea and then either pour the tea into the water or the crystals and let my project soak in it. Then when I get the desired effect, I'll wring it out, *do not rinse* then hang it outside in the sun to dry. That's how you get the different lines in it from the way the tea stains and runs.
Hmm, I've not digitzed a rooster before... I might have to try that one..I have a thing for chickens :lol:
