Lots of new patterns for my new scarves, Ive recently acquired a new batch of vintage tjaps (batik stamps) which are incredibly hard to come by, (especially the good quality pre-30`s tjaps) so its a real treat to use them and formulate new patterns. Ive spent a few days repeatedly inking up pattern combinations using them with some of my existing blocks to create new pattern lay-outs - one of which included the beautiful song bird I showed you earlier. Here Im printing it on indigo linen prior to sewing it up.
I`ve sourced another supply of vintage tjaps from France and it will take a little while to ship them over to England as they are quite a few in this lot so it will be a while before I get round to even using those ones, but its exciting to increase my pattern inventory either way.
Gorgeous, as usual! ;-)
