Before Lilian arrived I was painting and stamping fabrics.
It was just calico fabric which I wet and crumpled then painted with acrylic paint while wet. (The colours look ugly here, but really, some of them were quite pretty.
After it dried I got the moulding stamp out to do some stamping – also with acrylic paint mixed with fabric medium.
The basket weaving stamping
Potato masher stamping.
After re-heating, the stamp comes back to normal. I used the toaster to heat and re-heat my stamp.
All in all it worked out okay but the stamp has to be very indented so as the relief parts stamp well.
Lessons were learned.
Then it was Lilian’s turn to paint.
Then we did some bare foot cooking. Pumpkin scones.

Lily reminds me of my girls when they were little and used to love helping in the kitchen particularly if there was messy stuff involved. She is just gorgeous.
I love your dyed and stamped fabrics they are going to make terrific backgrounds.
Hello Di, It looks like both you and Lily had a wonderful and creative day together. Hugs Judy
Love your painting/stamping Di. I'm yet to try my blocks, time is not on my side.
Your little Lily is so gorgeous. I can see she just loves being around Nan.
