White Lines


I've been compelled to take up the Elmers glue gel again. This time, my subject has gone a bit more abstract. Previously, I painted with fabric paints, but this time I used thickened MX dye. I love the way the colors have blended (as well as the way they have not blended in other areas). Two other pieces are soaking in a tub so I can remove the alginate and glue gel that is still stuck after two washings.

I can hardly wait to start stitching on this with pearl cotton - and it screams for buttons, too.

I like it! Am curious... you mentioned Elmer's Glue Gel. Is that like the blue school glue? I looked at Jo-Ann's yesterday, and didn't find any marked 'Glue Gel'.
