Rusting

My materials class is just so...I don't know...but I just thought I'd share one of my favorite accidents. This is rust on cotton. I first wrapped the fabric into a tube and bound it in bailing wire then doused it in vinegar and water. Then I unwrapped it after a week and placed it on a giant flat sheet of rusted metal and doused it again. Then I came back and added some steel wool. Tahdah. It's about a yard long this is just my favorite part. The other fabrics I tried didn't turn out so liquidy but I got a lot of beautiful cross patterns
