I love this piece. It’s beautiful and the texture is fantastic. I’m not familiar with this technique. What do you use to burn the silk?
Mmm, this does look yummy and very interesting! Is there already some wool fibre at the back of the panel or would you place it on top of your laid out wool and continue in this way??

Its destination is into a vessel all will be revealed soon.
Thank you Chrissie. I’ll look forward to learning more about this technique. I enjoy your posts.
Take care,
