No snow update

Just a quick posting of eye candy. These are the balance of the No Snow dyes done a few weeks ago. These pieces were over-dyed using a low water immersion technique due to the large amount of white space. Freezing 2 yard cuts in a bucket jammed with 14 yards total results in lots of white space. Bad effect. I think they turned out pretty good after the 2nd dye run.

Oh, all of these were dyed in the same bucket. The color variations are amazing.

No snow? No problem

Photographing and posting the snow dyes I did this winter inspired me to do more. I didn't let the minor issue of no snow slow me down. I put a two gallon bucket of soda soaked fabrics in the freezer last night. I had 10-12 yards of various fabrics hanging in the gargage waiting for me to do something. Well something finally came along in the form of a gray rainy day.

I am ready for summer.

I had planned to dye two batches. The fabric had other ideas. It was impossible to spit into two piles. The purple/green run will have to wait.

Set up and ready for fabric

Santa Fe blue & Adobe Rose. I threw a little lilac in there to cover some white areas.

Rice resist update

Rice flour resist. Sapphire blue & jet black mixed 2/1

Interesting. Will have to apply it thicker next time

March already

Ok........ I spent 20 minutes writing a wordy post and Blogger ate it! So pictures only now that I don't have time for do-overs.
