Dyeing day


My stash is desperate for some more fabrics... so I had an play at dyeing some calico. I need some for my embellisher work, I am really pleased with the results. It was so hot, I really thought it would not work. It has, I scrunched the fabric tight into the bag and so have variegated pieces... just what I wanted.


At some stage this lot will need to be ironed......Mmmmm ... might have to wait until this evening if it cools down!

Like the shadows the rotary line is casting on the grass in this photo?
