Full moon and flying crane

It's not a very intriguiing title, is it? It might change if I become inspired. However, here is my latest work-in-progress.

The first layer is gray batik with an appliquéd circle. Second layer is silk organza (printed on my home computer). My Epson will print on just about any fabric as long as it is well trimmed and ironed to freezer paper. The printed crane images are from Dover clip Matsuya Japanese Crest Designs. Funny, the black bars looked great at 10:30 last night. Now that I see them in day light they will definitely have to be redone!

Lastly, I embroidered a crane; the crane image is clip art that comes with CorelDRAW.

I am fascinated by your use of sheer fabrics in the printer. Funny how everything looks so different in the light of day! So far it all looks great to me.

I like your use of sheer fabrics. I don't see anything wrong with the black bars on my computer. The crane is beautiful!
