Last year my annual trip to Arrowmont was canceled due to COVID. That makes this year's trip all the more precious. I am taking Cloth, Needle and Stitch: The Keeper's Quilt with Helen Geglio. I have been collecting old pieces of quilts, lace and trim. This weekend I did some natural dyeing.
Osage Orange
Logwood
It did not take long to dye my way through seven yards of linen and some commercial text print fabric.
My array of purples and gold
I also took some of the leftover dye stuff and steamed some wrapped bundles for some variations.
I threw some yarn into the pots for fun.
For the dilemma, do I approach the class with a plan...there are so many possibilities ? Or do I pack up a bunch of odds and ends and see what happens.
What a lovely problem to have.
