And then I moved on to cherry bark, using shibori techniques and getting a different and deeper brown, which I like.
When I put a variety of small bits of fabric into the same dye pot later, it was nearly spent and here's the much lighter colour it produced.
I also came up with a pattern on paper that I like and tried out variations of it and am thinking about how I will translate it to fabric. I'm basing my repeat pattern on a very meaningful symbol I developed from four shapes about ten years ago for my business card that has also been a signature on my quilts.
