For this challenge, I looked inside my cupboards, and I
found lots of things I don’t use regularly.
But I cannot call them undesirables – I loved them when I bought them - they are all desirable, it is just
that they have not been used – yet?!
There are some beautiful commercial fabrics, including interesting batiks, and some really old fabrics I bought in the US when I was
still making dolls, bits of which I have used for making dolls’s clothes, like
20 years ago.
There is a shelf full of silk organzas and painted silks,
which I have used at some point, a long time ago. Some of them were used in the couple of
bojagis I made.
I have also a collection of fabric paints, and colourful pens such as Sharpies, which I always
mean to use, and then I don’t – except occasionally for printing text with
Thermofax screens.
I have gorgeous Inktense colour pencils and blocks – which I
don’t know how to use, and no idea of what to do with them. I have Markal sticks, which I do know how to
use, but haven’t found a way of employing them in my work.
And other things I haven’t mentioned here….
So plenty to choose from, for this challenge… decisions,
decisions…
