Hi there. I've been looking through a lot of your work on your blog (especially the tyvek posts). I like the idea of layering in your experiments.

I was wondering if you knew a way to prevent parts of the tyvek from buckling when applying the heat gun to it. I read that when the fabric is wet, the heat gun won't disturb it...I've used glue, a resist paste and water on my own experiments, but I find the heat gun dries these very quickly, so I end up losing my resist

I love what you did with the tyvek! By the way I tagged you.

So creative! I especially like the last piece.

The gold pieces in the middle are my favourites - they have such a rich and lacy appearance.

What amazing surfaces you have created, and I am always drawn to the rich colours you use. I like your knitted wire and can think of so many uses for it. Do you ever sell any of these things - the samples, the knitted wire etc?

Wonderful textures on that last blue piece Lynda. I don't know how you find the time to do so many samples - something I'm not very good at making myself do!

I don't know what else to say that hasn't already been said. Tell the truth, you have had yourself cloned. That is the only way you could accomplish so much in such a short time. You are like the energizer bunny, just keep going and going and going.

You have done some amazing work here! Who knew how many ways we could use wire and Tyvek? Not to mention all your other variations. Now I'm itching to get into the studio. Keep up the good work!

The last piece made me think of the coast too, my favourite piece is the kitchen towel sandwich. Amazing stuff, all of it.

Hi!
Brilliant...truly brilliant. I'm still in a fog about the blue ink but that doesn't much matter. Your post proves that tyvek has more possibilities than even I could have imagined. Thanks for sharing.

These are great Lynda! You always do such wonderful experiments. What is the answer to your questions about the why of the colors showing differently? I'm stumped.

2008-01-20T23:35:00.000Z

I'm echoing Carol! These pieces are fabulous tho. I particularly like the last pieces with the puff paint and tyvek. Because of the colour I can see them working with a seashore theme. Inspirational! Thank you, Lynda.

These are just amazing Lynda - I'm just speechless with your creativity and output. Your work is such an inspiration.

2008-01-20T21:53:00.000Z

Hi Lynda
What a great combo, knitting and Tyvek!! The last of the knitted samples looks amazing!! You've really pushed the knit into the background, so it's more of an integral element than a dominating presence. Great stuff, wonder what you could make with it. I wonder if it would work as part of a corset, as the knitted wire would mould really well, sorry just musing!!

Gosh - Not much else to add - I am just about to ...

2008-01-20T21:35:00.000Z

Gosh - Not much else to add - I am just about to embark on the painted foil technique you shared with us. Wonder if I will ever catch up!!
I think I will start a book to jot down what and when so that I can find it again when I do want to try your techniques.
Many thanks and keep going.
Cheers

Yikes Lynda you sure as hell know how to push the "what if" boundaries don't you.
Another excellent experiment.

2008-01-20T20:19:00.000Z

Bloody hell Lynda, when do you sleep! You never just do one sample do you! These are so fab. i can't wait to see what you do with them. Your work is just going from strength to strength. The colours are just lovelt and the bleach and expanda print is particularly smashing.

This is gorgeous Lynda, the challenge was only a joke, I didn't realize that it would take us to such a new and exiting area. That is what blogging is al about I guess, sharing with each other and finding new ways to approach something. It really pleases me that you where so inspired by the tyvec, you really find a new direction that will inspire more people. Please go on!
kind regards

It's fun to see your experiments. They are very intereting. I'm crocheting wire to include in a piece. Sandy
