I took advantage of yesterday sunshine to dye fabric for my next Twelve by Twelve piece. The theme is "Mythology". I know more or less what I want to do, but I was missing some fabric. I already had a little dyeing session a few days ago but I wasn't happy with the outcome. The colours were not deep enough. I think it was too cold inside and outside. Yesterday was just fine and this time I'm quite pleased with the results... Now, I just have to find some quiet time to sketch out my ideas and start sewing.
A few weeks ago, little GD did this little piece... and I worked on my new shirt, using the Misti Liberty fabric that I bought last year in London. I still have to sew the sleeves and find matching buttons. But first, I must concentrate on that Mythology quilt!
I like to play with fabrics, threads, dyes, paints and other funny things. I love books, animals, flowers and chocolate.
I have a dear husband, three sons and four beautiful grandchildren.

Isn’t it a shame we have no Summer at all?
What a fun piece, made by your Granddaughter!
I love the blue/grey dyed fabric, is it done in a shibori technique? And the red/orange is gorgeous!!
Nice dyeing! I've been wanting to do the same thing. I'm looking forward to seeing your mythology quilt.
