Momma Art

     I have been teaching beginning digital photography for a couple of years now. We are learning about macro (close-up) photography. I have also found a great website that can turn any digital photo or drawing into fabric! (I have talked about www.spoonflower.com before) I combined those two loves, and bought one yard of fabric with a photo taken by yours truly!!!  Check it out HERE !      I was ecstatic to get the fabric, and I couldn't wait to get started! I created this dress the same way I made the Mona Lisa  dress. My photo is of some oil pastels in a bowl in my classroom. I traced a free t-shirt pattern I found online, and I just extended the length  as far as the one yard would let me. I used light blue thread on the sleeves. I like the way contrasting thread colors look. I used my seam gauge for the sleeves and neckline to make sure I was  getting everything even-Steven. And there you have it! ...
