Maurine's Nature's Beauty

I took a wonderful class called "Nature's 

Beauty" from my friend, Fran Parrigan 

Meehan, on April 30 to May 1, 2009.  

She gave us a wire dress form,which I 

am including so you can see what we 

used,  lots and lots of fabric, cheese 

cloth, holeless beads and much much 

more.  We use a product called 

PAVERPOL which is a water-based 

household and textile hardener.  We 

took our fabric and dunked it into the 

Paverpol, squeezed it out and spread it 

over our dress form shaping it as we 

went.  She also added a surprise for us, 

a little baby that we made which I hid 

under the skirt. When everything was 

dry it was hard as a rock and looked like 

a statue. This is the "Nature's Beauty" 

that I made.
