This postcard was made from a piece of fabric paper created from late 18th and early 19th century foreign text fragments, handmade and marbled papers with polymer emulsion and metallic inks on unbleached muslin. To it were added commercially printed fabric, a piece of house painted upholstery material and a scrap of an old cross stitch based on the 6th century mosaics in Ravenna's San Vitale church in Italy...plus a button.
The reverse is a piece of peach colored silk signed and dated in free motion machine embroidery.
I'm thrilled to be trading with Fannie who blogs here and here. Fannie also blogged about our trade here.
