I had a nightmare yesterday morning with my powertex, it wouldn't mold, stick, dry or do anything but lie flat! I think it was too cold for it to work properly as it took 3 and half hours before I could do anything with it. I wanted to curl all the pieces like the couple you can see bottom left, but it just wasn't happening.
Later on we put the heating on and I put the pieces in the airing cupboard and eventually they dried.
I painted the face with DecoArt Dazzling metallics royal ruby. I mixed gloss varnish and deep coral primary elements pigment and dry brushed it on the fabric and cotton threads.

you may be having a nightmare getting your powertex to dry, but it's looking great when it does! Love the colour on this piece.
Terrific Sam. It looks like leather the way you have used it
Love Chrissie x
I think this looks pretty good! You are certainly teaching me a lot before I even have a go with mine, lol!
