The Haul
Today I had an unexpected day of dyeing. EJP and I were supposed to go to a friends house to have a Fiber Revolution meet up. Things happened, alarm clocks didn't go off in time, EJP was very late. We ended up staying here and dyeing. In the dungeon.
The top three pieces were parfait dyed. I think I need to overdye the left most piece, it bores me. The right most orange piece make my mouth water! Yum!!!
The heavy black animal spot type design I did last year but washed and dried today. I am going to welcome it into my stash tonight, introduce it to it's mates-in-organized-boxes!
The lettered print is a bleach discharge, overdye that I completed today. I discharged it about two weeks ago, the lettered stamps are my own.
In my own defense, I have to say that the colors in all of these pieces are much richer in person.
Overall a very productive day, made all the merrier by happenstance and friendship.
Love the letter discharges. Stunning. I am so drawn to text as a graphic element. Clearly I'm not the only one. Great job!

Keep up the discovery!
