More Wild Dyery Course results

Since last time I've made a journal out of the indigo shibori dyed fabric.  I attached the pages with some white embroidery floss and did a blanket stitch around the outside with yarn I had dyed in red cactus flowers so generously given to me by my friend Pat.   Here's a photo below:

For another lesson, I've dyed some silk samples with weld (yellow), madder (red) and indigo (blue).  By combining some of the colours you also get orange and purple.  So I had six colours.  Then a sample of each colour was dipped into iron solution to get six more colours.   The top row has the original colours and the bottom row are the same colours dipped in iron solution    Here is the swatch book of samples I made with all twelve colours:

It was a fun exercise and gives me lots to experiment with.  Thanks for stopping by!
