Fabric hanging

This is a fabric wall hanging I made at a Crafty Individuals course a few weekends ago. The two pieces of fabric are silk, and I painted the front one with silk paints. Torn up handmade paper was then stuck onto the silk. The images are stamped onto tissue paper, and stuck onto the silk with spray mount. The whole thing was then adorned with buttons, stitching, and beads. It was then atached to the backing silk, just at the top, so they both hang free. It was great fun to do. Some of the beads on the hanging threads to the left are home made out of handmade paper, to match the ones on the hanging. The hanging is approx 2ft long. If you click on the image you can see it a lot better.
