Green



If anyone out there is in charge
of this weather, can I just say
I HAVE HAD ENOUGH NOW.
Rant Over!
This week I put a selection of
fabrics into Procion dye,
(Olive Green) and this is what
came out! I thought I would get
a selection of greens, but as
you can see there is an 
amazing selection of colours as
the fabrics are a mixture of
man made and natural.
Have a lovely weekend ladies,
and no, the garden does NOT need the rain.

  11. A lovely idea - that's one of the joys of playing with dyes - you just never know what you'll get at the end of it! I think it's a lovely selection of colours, and they all tone and work beautifully.
