There is nothing so exciting as opening a dye bundle! I'm planning to wrap one over the coming days. I've spent yesterday and today making covers and getting ready to bind some new books for friends and myself.
A quiet celebration for my partner and myself, not to mention our cat. Merry Christmas to you from Australia.
dyestuff: a few yellow onion skins, rusty steel, frozen red hollyhock blossoms in a claussen's pickle jar complete with leftover vinegar and spices, and a touch of hard well water. one bundle was cloth over a stone, the other had 5 shifu squares.
Thank you Velma, I love ANYTHING color, dye, paint, plants, etc. have been saving my onion skins for a few months, I had read somewhere you can dye ?? paper ?? fabric ?? something - I'm on my way to find a jar !!!! : ) Blessings, Sandra in AZ
