There are many ways to make mixed media fabric. You can make it with

a fabric/paper combo or just fabric. You can use a water/glue mixture or a
collage or matte medium. You can add what ever elements you like to your

"MMF". The choice is yours. One of my favorite ways is from a new book by

Rebekah Meier called "Fabric art collage - 40+ Mixed Media Techniques".

Here are a few samples of what I did.

More later

Thanks for the nice comments.

I can tell this is going to take a while to get use to. Every time I have sat down to the computer thinking I was going to post, I lost my nerve, and put it off for another day. I have sat here over the last several days wondering if what I have to share has any relavance. Well... thank God for friends and family! They always seem to know what to say and when to say it. It is not about "relavance". It is about having fun , going with the flow and seeing where this will lead. So lighten up ROCHELLE.
