More zapping
I had some black tyvek that I hadn’t used before so I thought it was time to give it a trial run.
For added drama I decided to pair it with a piece of (impossible to work with) silver fabric. I stitched a geometric design onto the tyvek/silver sandwich and zapped it with a heat gun. I quickly found out that my stitching was a little to detailed and the stitching itself a little too fine to create a real nice effect. So I was a little disappointed with this sample.
Until I turned it over…the backside was far more interesting! The melting (contraction) of the tyvek had created a rather interesting raised texture.
