The goal of the '99-'00 program year was to explore different techniques for use in our own projects.
The challenge was to use what we learned, and model the result in the fashion show at the May 2000 PNNAG General Meeting.
This project started out with baggie-dyeing from our September '99 meeting.
It  includes credit card fabric painting and crayon rubbings of rubber stamps from our October '99 meeting.
It also includes dimensional flowers inspired by our February '99 meeting.  These came from Rebecca Wat's "Fantastic Fabric Folding" which was just published a couple of weeks after our meeting.
Pentagon Flowers
Twirled Roses

 
The pattern is "Scrappy Vest" from Deborah Brunner's "Crazy Rags".

 
This project is dedicated to
