E. EMBROIDERED TURPENTINE PHOTOGRAPHS

Nostalgic photographs can be applied to silk fabric using the Australian turpentine method, and further embellished with silk ribbon embroidery and water colour paints. You will enjoy making these personal mementos. Use a fine silk to ensure a clearer copy. The embroidery pattern is made to fit a 3” x 4 1/2” rectangle. Bring photo to class.
