I decided to use pebeo seta color, transparent paint to complete the background. I added Jacquard pearl Ex Pigments ( 674 interference gold) to the paints to add a beautiful shimmer to the fabric. I love this product as it just brings the piece to life. I will be adding my own hand dyed fabrics later today to the inner borders and may indeed, continue using the same technique to the outer border that I used on Elizabeth Berni. I think as a series, it will make a strong connection between the pieces.
