My little bundles in the pot
wool, silk, cotton fabrics
assortment of rusty bits and pieces, along with various bits of plant material from my garden and the odd teabag
my best results after boiling, washing, drying and pressing

Viv's plant playday
I had a little play at the plant dyeing as described by Liz at the India Flint workshop she attended. I'm not sure if I did it the "right" way,
i.e. included the right ingredients, and as I only got 50% success
perhaps I didn't. However, I am really pleased with the way the other
50% turned out.

ReplyDeleteThey look good to me. I haven't tried this yet but want to use our dead day lily flowers before they all disappear.
