Another Dip in the Dye Bath




I've been doing some further dye experimentation - the top photo has large marbles wrapped inside the linen piece I dyed yesterday and was taken before I dipped the part with the marbles back into a dye bath. The second photo is a scrap of silk velvet that I've discharged to test drawn lines, sequin waste, a wood block, and a door stencil. And the pink and white linen is my first Sekka shibori attempt - folded into triangles and just two corners dipped. I have numerous other samples in the dye baths right now and hope to post results later tonight once they are batched and rinsed.
