winter dyeing day

homes and habitats

i think we all end up spending a little more time at home during the winter months.  every year i end up picking up a new indoor craft to get me through the cold days.  a few weeks ago, a few friends gathered and spent the day dyeing.  we shared fabrics, dyes, books, and ideas and enjoyed a winter day indoors.  our friend rene, a local textile artist helped guide us as we tested various methods of dyeing.

with spring on our mind we chose the colors peacock blue and wisteria.

here are some photos from our inspiring day…..

    Really love the colours you worked with – particularly the darker tones.

    What fabrics are featured in the very last shot? Quite coarse textures with unfinished edges. Are any of them for sale?

    many thanks

    Tony
