Nicely written Norbert, and thanks for all the tips.

You’re welcome. I think of it as casting bread upon the waters. :)

Please keep us informed in other tricks of the trades you have learned
through your process of fig modifications.

There’s a multi-page “Creating Custom Elements” essay to come that’s just
waiting on a couple of images being uploaded. It covers a lot of my “hard
material” techniques, as opposed to the “soft-material” stuff in this one.

Some of us (read:me) live far away from any decent art supply stores.... so
for years I have used a very cheap substitute for stopping fabric from
fraying when creating art projects. A quick trip to the hardware store and
you will find shellac in two types, one will yellow projects, but there is
another that will stay clear. I have used the “white shellac” very
successfully over the years to cut out fussy designs from fabric
(collage/craft work) without any fraying.

Cool! Thanks for sharing. I wonder if you could use acrylic polyurethane floor
varnish (the substance I use as topcoat on all my customs) to do the same thing?
I bet if it were diluted a bit... Hmmmmmmmmmmm.
Anyway, thanks for sharing, Janey.
Regards,
Norbert
