Still wet, a slice cut off a pool noodle was used to 

"stamp" ovals using DeColorant along with some 

long wavy lines.

Subtle Machine Quilting Begun

 I've chosen subtle machine quilting

and haven't titled it yet,

however I seem to be in a "water" art season.

Color Lifting Results

 The color lifting added sufficient  interest to the background

teal fabric before I hand appliqued the purple squiggles.

I'm thinking I'll machine quilt in colors to

add more interest to this piece.

Color Lifting Fun

This piece began quickly to have something to

 hand sew at a Fiber Arts meeting. 

 However, after visiting another fiber artist,

 I chose to first add some interest to the background fabric

 using some Decolourant as a "Color Lifter"

The first squiggles were created using an art gum eraser I carved and 

now I free handed some lines around the squiggle sections and

used a clean humus container lip around the circles.

Now to wait until it dries to iron to lift out the color.
