More dye experiments


I told you I would try to post these pics today and I made it!


These two velvets are made just a little differently. As I stated yesterday, I am afraid to use resists as it might damage the nap on this luscious fabric. I know that once you press a fold in this velvet it is permanent so Im not sure what would happen with a lot of tying and clamping, I do intend to find out though...with some small pieces.


These were done with no ties and no clamps but I think the results still turned out great! I have more planned along this vein!


But for now I am back to bed...seems last weeks stomach flu was not done with me. Grr.
