Yikes Lynda--did you have time to eat and sleep-My favourite is number 10 but I love them all--especially the Steward Gill ones.
From #10 on they already look like landscapes - trees and water.
Do I know what the states' version of "iron on Vilene" is?
They're all beautiful.
I can't keep up with all this gorgeousness!!! The last one would make a beautiful book cover but that is just in my limited imagination, I look forward to seeing what you do with them.
Don't feel you need to use them all...other artists would rush to volunteer to help out!!!
Fantastic pieces! Love them all. Now did you apply the foil before or after the paints?
Hi Lynda, these pieces are lovely. This foil is really a tingle. I must admit it works a lot better than the foil I had bought in the Netherlands. You really tease me with this, now I have to order MORE...Thanks for sharing you're experience. (this saves time :-)
Oh! I think I must have died and gone to heaven!!!! Val
My favorites are #10 and #11. But they are all beautiful. Is vilene like pellon, do you know?
Your blog is always such a treat and I always want to follow along with your processes, which you always describe and illustrate so well. You are very generous with your techniques and, as I will soon have more time for experimentation, I'm going to be back here for inspiration. Thank you.
What interesting surfaces. Sandy
I do LOVE your blog Lynda!! They are all fantastic - the last one reminding me of a bushfire - or if you don't like that description, then maybe a fiery sunset amongst many trees.
You do some fantastic things.
You must have such fun together with all the things to play with.
Love it all.
Hugs, Alis
wonderful background fabrics Lynda -
so much potential - how lovely

Thought I'd give this a try - had some fusible pelmet vilene quite wide I had bought from a quilt shop -cannot remember why. When I ironed off the foil it just stuck to the little dots of glue- my one is fusible both sides - is this the same as yours? Have ironed off more foil and painted but get a completely different effect to you - Help. By the way love yours,which is why I gave it a go.!!
Wow! You have been busy and meticulous in noting down all the details of what you did. These are all beautiful - I really like 4,5 and 14 but they're all gorgeous.
4-7-and everyone's favorite 10.
you've created some pretty awesome surfaces .
neki desu
A great series. Wonderful colours!
These are fabulous effects.I particularly like 11 as it looks very rust inspired. Would the same effect work on a sheer? so that you could burn into it, or maybe the vilene would burn. Does the foil burn with a soldering iron?
Foiled again....*L*.....I now have all these different fabrics and other bases covered with various foils. The fun part really begins tomorrow then, I bet. Getting out all my paints and stuff.
I had a terrible beginning. I had pulled out what I thot was Pellon Fusible; turned out it was fusible INTERFACING!....geez....Only when it wouldn't let me get to the fusible part, did I realize.
Wow (I think I always start my comment son your blog with that expression - I wonder why?!) I love them all and I can't believe you got that much done in one weekend (and kept track of them all!) Look forward to seeing what you do with them.
many surfaces!! wonderful!
These are so beautiful! I think I need to get a bit more creative in my own needlework. You are such a great inspiration for me Lynda!
Oh how wonderful, thanks so much for sharing these gorgeous results with us. I guess I soon have to begin some experimenting with your foils:) I'll be over at your soil-site right now.
Have a great creative (foiling?)day
Ooh, I love that 12 Lynda. Of course all the others are lush too.
love the foil star!! great idea!
