Art to inspire sewing and textiles: 2.Claire Muir.

Artist Claire Muir  http://www.clairemuir.co.uk/about/

This results in stunningly delicate looking designs which are made even more beautiful with sequins, shiny beads and thread:


       

      


       





This is a great sewing project and Christina liked the idea of making butterflies with this method and using them to decorate a sewing project it will be interesting to see what she comes up with.
