Thanks in advance. I LOVE this piece you've posted!

This particular fabric I painted and as I like to tell my friends YOU CAN TOO. This is spatter painted using a permanent fabric paint. I use Seta Colour, DHMARA trading carries it but I've also used ink pencils and ink blocks that can be found at either good craft stores or art supply stores. More people need to adopt my mantra I CAN DO THIS. I included a pic of the full metre I did last month. You can also get a really good affect using just a black crayon. Trust me on this one. It's not magic. When you cut a thin slice, that's when the magic happens. Good luck!
