Dyeing to use these fabrics

November 19, 2011 at 3:11 pm 4 comments

I have rinsed, washed, dried and ironed all my fabric from the Dyeing day we had at Anglesea recently. I dyed some quilter’s muslin, op shop sheeting, old napkins, cotton perle and crochet thread, the occasional doiley and some old tablecloth.

Hopefully I have a large enough colour range to begin designing and making a ‘Monet’ quilt in the style and techniques of Gloria Loughman.

Purples & Blues

Greens

Yellows through to reds

Most of the fabric has interesting patterning such as this blue one:

Beautiful!!
