I posted photos the other day of my snow dying results, and I noticed something wonderful in a piece from batch 3! Did you see it too? Here's the original photo.What a wonderful happenstance. Random events came together to provide this image. First, that the image is dyed there at all of course. But also that I placed the piece of fabric down oriented in the right direction and happened to stand on the right side of it to photograph it. I looked at these fabrics for some time before taking the photos, and never saw the image in the cloth, so truly its a wonder I have this at all. I could have cut it up-that's a ghastly thought now.
For those of you who think I'm seeing this, 
it's in the piece on the bottom right. Here it is cropped in. There's a leopard. Actually I see a leopard in 2 directions, one sitting the other pouncing. After careful consideration, I'm favouring the pouncing leopard.

After careful consideration, I'm favouring the pouncing leopard. With a some quick brush strokes around the image in Photoshop and the addition of a tail, you can see the outline now too. Yes, my Photoshop skills are lacking, and that's one scary looking kitty, but I'm sure I can make this much more stunning with needle and thread.
I'm so over the moon happy with this discovery. I don't know what to do with this leopard. Just stitch the piece and frame it? Piece it in to something larger?

I noticed that leopard also when I saw the pic without you outlining it LOL
ReplyDeleteVery exciting!! I also see what seems to be a figure, or at least a head in the piece above the leopard.....or maybe it's just my computer??
