Fabric Painting

Fabric Painted Bed Sheet

i have done fabric paint on a cotton bed sheet with 2 pillow covers..here are they..i first painted the whole design with white background and let it dried for 24 hours and then painted the flowers and leaves as usual..it lasts for ever because of the white painted background..there are 3 bunches in the bedsheet and one corner design in each pillow cover..

another single pillow cover with corner design..i had done many but all have been sold out ..now i feel sad for not taking the photographs atleast :((

Tricolor Puttu
