The drawing on the block.

Here, on the sleeve, I accidentally carved out part of my line. I patched it with some scraps from carving and wood glue, then carved the patch. I'm really surprised it worked.

The carved block with ink.

My stencil to cut the shirt from decorative paper. This was my first time doing chine collé with woodblock. My idea is to do a varied edition and try different papers within the edition.

What a beautiful use of chine colle. A lovely print.
Really beautiful composition. Your eye for this was really inspiring. I think we all feel for your anxiety at the mis-cut! But you fixed it, and no one will ever know but us. Great job.
Thank you, Annie and Jeff, for the nice comments!
