Group 2 Art Textiles – Cherry Blossom
Cherry blossom festival ‘hanami’, Japan
We went to look at the cherry blossom
We picked a cherry blossom and looked at it in class
We also picked a leaf from the cherry tree
We made a rubbing of the leaf with a transfer crayon
Then we ironed the rubbing onto the fabric
We printed some petal shapes onto fabric and added this to the background to make the picture We added stitches, 3D paint, fabric pastels and beads to the flowers Here are our pictures…
