In my recent tidying-up activity, I found a nice piece of woven fabric that is sturdy. I have made another art quilt with it as the backing. I used flannel for the batting and 505 fabric spray-adhesive to hold the batting in place on the backing fabric. My whole intent in making this piece, was to fold it in half and make a nice tote bag out of it. I like it so much, on my wall, that I am not sure the tote bag will ever be a thing. The whole reason for using the nice woven fabric was for it to be the inside lining. Hmmmm . . .
I may have to take it down and audition it with a strap to see if I could actually make myself make it into a bag. Yes, it is another Kawandi, and I used scrap pieces that had selvedge edges on them, almost entirely.
There are four pieces in it that do not have selvedge edges, excepting the square silk and batik bits I placed on top at the time I laid the quilting in. I have a decision to make, so meanwhile, I will work on a Christmas Kawandi!
