I have been working with plant dye again. I ran out of some colors for my Etsy shop. I am going to be playing with some new colors as well. There is black bean and cabbage with hibiscus here. I want subtle colors but I also want to play. But this type of playing is slow. My life seems to be a lot of things that take time lately. Not that I really mind.
I have a pot of beets and vinegar dyeing silk right now. I am hoping I get the dark antique rose I got last time. If not, I do need another slip. I use every bit of what I make for something! And I do find colors grow on me over time. Sometimes I need to put them away because at first they are a disappointment.
It has been an interesting week. I am curious to see what next week brings but I can wait as well. More dye will definitely be in my future!
