Printed Tea Dyed Calico Book

I had a batch of teadyed calico and decided to print photos of worm eaten wood directly onto the fabric.
It worked!
I ran a tacking stitch through the 'pages' to give the book some continuity.




Again, I love the marks on the wood created by some anonymous little creature.

    I'd REALLY like to know how you printed on the fabric. Monoprints? The results are fab.
