Paper Lace as Hair

After reading my post about making paper lace, A. Carole Grant sent me a photo of a quilt in which she created hair with the same technique.

Carole explained to me her technique for creating the hair.  She used paper that’s designed to be used on doctors’ examining tables.  She placed it on the quilt and drew in the hair.  Then, she stitched it, and washed away the excess paper.  What a great way to control the results!

Very creative.  You can see the entire quilt, called Ironman, on Carole’s blog.
