Last night was cocktail friday, lychinis (very nice!) which inspired another stab (not literally) at lino cutting, There were no mushrooms in the cocktail, this was just an image that I saw on pinterest and thought I would have a go at trying to reproduce (it is not original!) I cut each mushroom seperately which allowed me to vary the placement.
I do rather like the red on pinkish tie-dye, the busy pattern comes up as an overall softer feel like this.
This was a piece of floral fabric that I had knocking around, that I really didn't like much, it was very old fashioned, but the addition of the very dark mushrooms makes it pop, softens the original print and gives almost a 3D feel...love!
One mushroom missing, giving a more spacy look
This is destined to be a pillowcase cover.

Wow this is gorgeous, I would use this fabric for everything! It must have taken forever to cut those stamps.
Nice to see another craft blogger in Ireland, I've followed you :-)
